Life is What Happens  by Pervinca 3 Review(s)
powerwriterReviewed Chapter: Epilogue on 4/7/2004
Oh, no. It's over! But, over in a very good way :) It was cute that Merry was the -only- one who didn't know about Sam and Pervinca. You'd think that he'd know everything going on. Was the vision that Pervinca saw in another chapter that I missed? I thought that I had caught up with all the chapters I didn't read in the beginning. I liked the concept of the vision though. I'm glad I read this story, because the first time I read the scenario, I wasn't but did anyway! Very good work :)

Author Reply: How much do I love it when you read my stories! It's so exciting getting review alerts :P I'm really glad you enjoyed it, especially the little Merry situation. I always think of Merry being pretty smart, but you have to admit, that Pervinca and Sam being together is not something that would readily spring to mind, even with the many hints that Pippin dropped. The vision comes from Chapter 9 (I think), when Pervinca and Sam dance and then kiss. I suppose it wasn't really a huge moment, so it'd be easy to forget. I'm really glad you read my story too! Think I'll proof-read it before I submit it to reviewing at HASA though :P

That had the perfect ending! I liked that you made the vision that Pervinca had so long ago be about Goldilocks and Faramir! I also liked the end bit with Merry being the only one not to know what had gone on between Sam and Pervinca! It was great, thank you!

Author Reply: The Goldi/Faramir vision was an idea from a very early stage in the writing (especially, since my first LotR fic was a Faramir/Goldi romance), but the idea of Merry not knowing about the whole thing only occured to me recently! I had to make sure that there wasn't any point in the story that he had been told, though. :P Thanks very much for your reviews - I'm so glad you enjoyed the story :D

A wonderful story! I just read it start to finish, and now I think I'm going to be late for work! LOL!

Author Reply: I hope you weren't *too* late - I'd hate to feel responsible for getting you into trouble :P Thanks so much for reviewing my little story, and I'm really glad you enjoyed it. :)
