Larner · 2 December 2006 · Chapter 16: Frodo's Garden

Aha, homesickness. Sam will come soon enough.

Antane · 2 December 2006 · Chapter 16: Frodo's Garden

A sweet story, my dear! I love to see Frodo in his and Sam's garden, sleeping out there to be closer to his dear, though I ache a little that he is physically without him still. Cute that he only come up to his friend's waist. I do imagine sometimes how they would like if they stood by me. Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Yeah, they wouldn't be that short to me, only by a foot or two, but still shorter. I love all the parts in the movies where they're standing next to one of the Elves or Men, they're so cute!! I'm only 5'1" and I often feel like that around my friends cause they're all just under 6 feet by a few inches. Glad you liked this story! God bless, Ellie

It is nice to see friends together.

Author's reply

Indeed! Thanks for reviewing! God bless, Ellie

Larner · 1 December 2006 · Chapter 15: The Cloak

I'm so glad they are agreed the Ring had taken Boromir.

Queen Galadriel · 1 December 2006 · Chapter 16: Frodo's Garden

Awww sweet! I love Meldamiriel! What a sweet image, Frodo sleeping there on the garden bench. Glad she could cheer him up! God bless, Galadriel

Author's reply

Glad you liked it! I'm liking Melda more the more I write about her. I'm glad others do too! God bless, Ellie

shirebound · 1 December 2006 · Chapter 16: Frodo's Garden

“That’s enough laughing at me, let’s go get something to eat!” Frodo exclaimed jokingly, and they ran off. Melda smiled, glad that nothing worse than homesickness had kept her friend from visiting that morning. I'm so happy when Frodo has friends who care about him this much. :D

Me too! *is happy with you* Thanks for reviewing! God bless, Ellie

Arwen of Lorien · 7 October 2006 · Chapter 15: The Cloak

Sweet! Very dear. Happy Birthday to the Lady of Gondor! God bless ~Arwen

Author's reply

Glad you liked it! The thought came to me a few mornings ago, I wrote the story, then realized it was Faramir's birthday, so I had to give it to her! God bless, Ellie

Arwen of Lorien · 7 October 2006 · Chapter 14: For Love

Beautiful! Truly. Wonderful insite into the characters. You do excell at that! Whether in hobbits or in Stewerds, you just make them come alive and even let there problems make sense. Yes, now it does make sense to me why Denethor would feel that way about Faramir. Bacons Predictions! God bless ~Arwen

Author's reply

*blushes* thank you so much, dearest! I've always wanted to do a piece about Denethor, and here it is! God bless, Ellie

Faramir of Gondor · 6 October 2006 · Chapter 15: The Cloak

*Crying soflty* I need to thank you again! *svniff* Thanks!

Author's reply

Wow, made you cry! *passes you royal Gondorian tissues* You're quite welcome! God bless, Ellie

Faramir of Gondor · 6 October 2006 · Chapter 15: The Cloak

Thanx babe!:)! That made my day!!!!

Author's reply

I'm sooo glad you liked it girly! Happy birthday! God bless, Ellie

Larner · 2 October 2006 · Chapter 14: For Love

And in the end what he saw as weaknesses in Finduilas and their son proved to be greater strength than he could appreciate. In the aftermath of the war, Gondor has need of love and honesty and loyalty and appreciation of the greatness of others. But he could not see that. Well done, Elanor.

Author's reply

It is very sad he couldn't see it, but I suppose Iluvitar had a plan there too. Thank you very much! God bless, Ellie

Larner · 2 October 2006 · Chapter 13: Mordor

There is something real to hold onto, something real to hold onto while the Ring sings its siren call to destruction. And for the moment he can rest, supported by the reality of Sam's love.

Larner · 2 October 2006 · Chapter 12: Darkness

There will be the need to go on all too soon, I think. But he's right to recognize the voice lies.

Queen Galadriel · 1 October 2006 · Chapter 14: For Love

Oh, this is so sad. As much as I love your Hobbit fics, these "non-hobbit" fics have an amazing power all their own. I see this as the beginning of Denethor's descent. So sad for Faramir, and not fair, really. But I can forgive Denethor a little after this. Beautiful, my dear! God bless, Galadriel

Author's reply

Thank you! I had started this as part of a different story, but it turned out to be this! I'm glad you liked it, and that I got the emotion well, I wasn't sure, Denethor is a really hard character to write! God bless, Ellie

Antane · 26 September 2006 · Chapter 13: Mordor

Sweet and loving, my dear! Frodo needed that love just as much or more than he needed food and water. Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Author's reply

Thank you! He wouldn't have got far without it! God bless, Ellie

Arwen of Lorien · 26 September 2006 · Chapter 13: Mordor

God bless ~Arwen

Author's reply

*hands you box of tissues* Please don't cry, dear! They make it in the end! (maybe you should ask Bilbo for one of his pocket handkerchiefs?) I heard you saw my naneth today, did she say hi for me?

Queen Galadriel · 26 September 2006 · Chapter 13: Mordor

Sorry about the blank review-accidentally hit the button before I'd even written anything! I love this dramatisation of the beautiful moment in the book! God bless, Galadriel

Author's reply

I deleted the blank already. I love that part, and just had to write something about it! Glad you enjoyed! God bless, Ellie

Queen Galadriel · 26 September 2006

Aaawww! Soooo sweet! I love these, Ellie! Wanderer bringing the pound cake for Frodo was too cute. :) Wonderful that he knew immediately to go get Sam, and of course he understands every word! :) God bless, Galadriel

Author's reply

So glad you liked it! Wanderer is such a smart cat, isn't he? God bless, Ellie

Larner · 26 September 2006 · Chapter 9: Pasta

So, years before Marco Polo's trip to China they are being introduced to spaghetti, are they? Lovely!

Author's reply

*loves pasta* Yes indeed! God bless, Ellie

Larner · 26 September 2006 · Chapter 10: That Night in Bree...

Yes, Bilbo is very proud of all whom he loves, from the ragged Ranger of the wild to the misplaced Hobbit scholar....

Larner · 26 September 2006 · Chapter 11: The Moon's House

My mother used to say the thunder was answering the lightning, and couldn't control the loudness of his voice. Although I always loved the idea of Dwarves playing at bowling, too. Lovely moment of reassurance for a small fool of a Took....

Author's reply

Dwarves bowling! I never thought of that! *giggles* My friend's parents always used to say it was God moving His furniture around. Glad you enjoyed! God bless, Ellie

Larner · 26 September 2006

Alive and yet not alive, emptied of purpose, barely able at times to smile, so much lost with the Ring....

Author's reply

Indeed, but not all is lost! God bless, Ellie

Larner · 26 September 2006 · Chapter 13: Mordor

Yes, the needed warmth and love reminding him he isn't alone, aiding him the only way Sam can at that point. Beautiful.

Author's reply

Thank you so much! *blushes* God bless, Ellie

shirebound · 26 September 2006

Ohhh, how lovely. So many beings are looking after Frodo, and trying to give him what he needs. *pets pets pets*

Author's reply

*hugs puppies and kitties* God bless, Ellie
