Healing the Blessed Isle  by shirebound 16 Review(s)

Another wonderful chapter. Poor Gimli, you describe his depression so well, I can feel it myself. Of course he's lonely and feeling useless. A dwarf needs rocks to delve and jewels to discover and polish. So clever of Gandalf to find a place where he might discover what he needs, and the hobbits to tease him about it until they push him out of his doldrums.

Author Reply: I don't think the hobbits could resist making a game out of teasing Gimli into a frenzy of curiosity. I'm ever so glad you're enjoying this. :)

Awwwwwwwwwwwww!! A conspiracy! I love it. Frodo and Sam manage Gimli perfectly and he has no notion at all that he's being managed. *g*

Author Reply: Tricksssy hobbitses, so often underestimated. Thank you so much!

Wonderful chapter Shire,
Lol I must have some "dwarf" in me because I was close to shaking Sam and Frodo myself. My kids think I'm nuts for yelling "where, where"!! at my laptop.

Gimili didn't stand a chance

Author Reply: *grins* I'm thrilled to know that you were that engaged with the chapter. Dear Gimli! Entwining your life with hobbits means that life is never dull, and your stomach is never empty. :)

I think you could have titled this chapter 'How To Catch A Dwarf', as you are dangling the right bait!

Author Reply: LOL, I should have consulted with you! I had two or three titles in mind, none of which I like as well as yours.

Yay!!! Those sneaksie hobbitses. It looks like their plan is off to an excellent start. I'm looking forward to seeing where this goes next.

You know, I'd never thought about how hard it might be for a single dwarf living on Tol Eressëa. Thanks for this. :)

Author Reply: Thank you so much. I really don't think Gimli would have thought through what life in the West might be like for him, and it took courage to undertake it. Three cheers for hobbits, who probably had a great time getting Gimli intrigued (and getting him to eat).
