*stares* *checks story date* *laughs* It appears Galadriel is not the only one with foresight... Amazing job! All of these are hilarious (and the ferret, not to mention shuffleboard... ROFL)

Author's reply

LOL, I had forgotten about the Valinor Virus! Thank you for reading and commenting on these silly tales! :)

That was great! :D Gimli must have had the time of his life after that, talking about the Mearas. . .

Author's reply

Thanks! LOL, I agree that Gimli would have enjoyed sharing this.

Cuthalion97 · 8 February 2019 · Chapter 2: The Truth Comes Out

It's too late at night for me to be laughing out loud! . . . I suppose, though, that no one's really FORCING me to read this . . . :D

Author's reply

Hooray, all the Stories of Arda reviews and comment notifications finally came through. I'm delighted you enjoyed 'the lighter side' of Middle-earth through these stories.

Heehee -- yet another utterly random offering (and I am indeed a big fan of random...)

Author's reply

Thank goodness there's room in Middle-earth for lighthearted silliness. *beams*

PSW · 9 December 2015 · Chapter 3: A Three Hour Cruise

So, I was trying not to laugh out loud from 'do you have the suntan oil' and 'the Quenya Queen' (in a public place, you know..), but I really almost lost it at the end over Aragorn shouting 'Elendil' over shuffleboard... :-)

Author's reply

So glad to give you a giggle!

PSW · 9 December 2015 · Chapter 1: Patience with Patients

*snort* This made me laugh -- so completely random.... :-)

Author's reply

Wizards can be so silly, can't they? :)

Larner · 28 June 2011 · Chapter 5: Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered

Oh, gads--you can definitely come up with excellent reasons to chortle! "My eyes cheated by some spell," eh? A wonderful prank by the new, perhaps not-so-improved Gandalf. Been around Hobbits perhaps too much!

Author's reply

Glad this gave you a chortle! Yes, the new-and-improved hobbity Gandalf will bear some watching.

Ellynn · 27 June 2011 · Chapter 5: Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered

*giggles* So nice! :)

Author's reply

Thanks, Ellynn. :)

Ellynn · 27 June 2011 · Chapter 1: Patience with Patients

This is crazy! :))) *lol*

Author's reply

Crazy fun! *grins*

Grey Wonderer · 26 June 2011 · Chapter 5: Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered

I loved this one on LJ and I love it here. I needed something to make me smile this morning and so I read it again. Thank you!

Author's reply

It's such a joy to contribute a few grins and giggles. I hope your day gets happier, my friend.

Lynn H · 25 June 2011 · Chapter 5: Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered

Someone has been reading the wrong set of books - how else did Draco wind up here? Now, how does Gandalf plan to RIDE Draco, along with Pippin? Three days with two bodies on his back is going to have our ferret flat...

Author's reply

And it's going to be a long walk to Edoras for Gimli, Legolas, Aragorn and Gandalf, unless our wily wizard has an actual horsie up his sleeve.

Andrea · 23 June 2011 · Chapter 5: Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered

LOL!!! Very funny and perfect for Belleferret :-) Thank you for a good laugh! (And don't tell Pippin, the hobbit not your doggie, about this incident)

Author's reply

Thanks, Andrea! LOL, I tell Pippin (my doggie) everything. :)

Mirach · 23 June 2011 · Chapter 5: Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered

Shadowfax the ferret? =D Allow me to show you my version of Shadowfax =) http://mirachravaia.deviantart.com/art/The-White-Rider-212004275

Author's reply

*grins* Gandalf is King of the Road!

Mirach · 23 June 2011 · Chapter 1: Patience with Patients

lol, this is amazing! Thanks for the laugh!

Author's reply

My pleasure! I'm so happy this gave you a giggle.

eiluj · 22 June 2011 · Chapter 5: Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered

Let me guess: you saw the Director's Cut of TTT last night and overdosed on popcorn? Me too, but no ferrets....

Author's reply

No overdosing, but this idea seemed a natural 'gift fic' for Belleferret. :)

Well it looks like that fall into the bottom less pit in Moria has rearranged some of Gandalf's brain cells, but he always did have a weird sense of humer! Poor Legolas, I hope nobody tells him what he was really looking at! Let's hope Gimli can keep his mouth shut or Gandalph will be leaving for Valinor a lot sooner than he had planned to! Huggs, Lynda

Author's reply

The Fellowship keeps many secrets, and I suspect dear Legolas won't be told the truth about this incident for many years to come. :)

Fiondil · 22 June 2011 · Chapter 5: Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered

Oh Valar, Shirebound! That is just too wicked. And if Leglas ever finds out... ROTFL!!

Author's reply

*grins* I'm glad you enjoyed this bit o' silly!

Saphira-123 · 9 August 2010 · Chapter 1: Patience with Patients

I just discovered and read your lovely story. Really a wonderful piece of art! Due to that I was about to ask you a question. Would you let me translate this story into german? I would give full credit to you and this site, of course and post a link back to the original story so others will be able to read it in english if they want to. If that's okay with you, please contact me. I would also be giving you a link to the site on which I intend to upload the translated story.

Author's reply

I'd be honored, Saphira! I'm very happy you enjoyed this silly tale. You're welcome to e-mail me at shirebound1@gmail.com

Hehehehe, very amusing!

Author's reply

Thanks! Too much 'swine flu' in the news that week; I just couldn't resist.

Linda Hoyland · 29 May 2009 · Chapter 4: Valinor Virus

I loved the Star trek reference here!Delightful!

Author's reply

Thanks! This was fun. :)

cookiefleck · 12 May 2009 · Chapter 4: Valinor Virus

LOL, I missed this one until just now. "I'm a wizard, not a doctor" - I think Gandalf's been visiting the engineering room of the Enterprise!

Author's reply

I think he has, too! Have fandom, will travel -- that's his motto. :)

Armariel · 2 May 2009 · Chapter 4: Valinor Virus

Oh my.....I had forgotten how delightful your stories are, Shirebound! These are so cute I just about lost it! LOLOL ~~~~{~@

Author's reply

Thank you very much! Middle-earth can be so silly. :)

inzilbeth · 30 April 2009 · Chapter 4: Valinor Virus

Oh brilliantly funny, Shirebound. Well done!

Author's reply

Thank you. This was fun. :)

Larner · 29 April 2009 · Chapter 4: Valinor Virus

So, Gandalf doesn't want to die again, eh? Heh! Can't say I blame him! Thanks for the chuckle!

Author's reply

Thanks, Larner! I just broke out in sillies and had to share them. :)

lilandriel · 29 April 2009 · Chapter 4: Valinor Virus

Author's reply

Thanks for commenting! Grumpy Gandalf is always good for a giggle. :)
