Oh how glad I am to see this here! What fun! I'm going to read this again, all at one go, as soon as I can!

With Sam at your back, you can't go far wrong. As Frodo will discover. Good thing they had Gandalf along to rid them of the wargs - but Pippin has proved his courage now, whether he realises it or not. Two wargs - and he's shed his first blood in battle. Not bad for a tweenage Took.

It took Pippin some time to find his strength, but now he knows he's capable of more than he originally thought. Thank you for reading and reviewing my story :-D

Very sweet ending. I loved seeing Pippin rise to the occasion, and his pleasure and pride at Aragorn's compliment was touching. Nice story!

Thank you for reading my story. I'm very glad you liked it :-D

Poor Pippin - that sounds a most painful wound. And dog bites are so often followed by infection - and I can't imagine warg bites are any better for your health. Gimli's pride in him is a nice foreshadowing of the Troll Incident and Pippin's retrieval from beneath it. I hope they get enough time to prepare themselves for the arrival of the rest of the pack.

I love the song and how everyone crowds around Pippin to help take care of him and make him feel safe.

Author's reply

Thank you. I really enjoyed writing the song :-)

Oh, poor Pippin! I love this! Excellent job!

Author's reply

Thank you :-D

Grey Wonderer · 12 September 2005 · Chapter 2: The Wind Picks Up

Pippin tries so hard to be brave and poor Merry is so very worried. I love Gimli's pride in Pippin because he has managed to kill the wolf. I thought that was so well done.

Author's reply

Thanks. Gimli's getting very attached to his companions, even if he doesn't always let on :-D

Bodkin · 12 September 2005 · Chapter 2: The Wind Picks Up

Poor Pippin. Being brave in the middle of something is one thing - but the reaction of afterwards is quite another. Though, if the other hobbits stopped their panic, Aragorn might be able to get round to seeing to that bite.

Author's reply

Eventually Aragorn will be able to convince the others to let him tend to Pippin's wound :-)

Ack! No, no don't leave us hanging there! Already such excitement gripping the reader. Great start to what promises to be a very good story! :-)

Author's reply

Thanks! I'm glad you like it. I promise I will update this story very soon. Everything is already written, it only needs some editing :-)

I am glad that you are posting this here as it is a great start and I don't often go over to LJ. Looking forward to more.

Author's reply

Thank you :-) More will follow soon!

Grey Wonderer · 11 September 2005 · Chapter 1: The Wind Has Many Faces

I am so very glad that you posted this over here. I enjoyed it so much on LJ and now I am looking forward to reading it again. I love the way this starts with thoughts about Pippin's life as a child at his home and how different things are for him on the quest. Also, this is still a very exciting beginning!

Author's reply

It's nice to hear you're still enjoying this :-) The contrast between his life in the Shire and during the Quest are enormous, aren't they?
