Oooh, that was fun!!! You had me chortling through it, especially the second chapter. Poor Gimli! I think I would've preferred the broken heart, too!

Author Reply: So sorry for reacting so late. I'm glad you liked it :)

You know, these remedies aren't *really* Pippin's fault,are they. Do I detect a pattern here of his female relatives coming up with these things to get back at him for his, shall we say, excess of creativity? [Evil Grin] I imagine a scene sometime in the future of members of the Fellowship confronting Pip's mother and sisters and aunts and so forth with a gleam of vengeful determination in their eyes.

Author Reply: LOL. Yes, there IS a pattern involving Pippin's female relations. I'm glad you liked it. Sorry about the very late reaction.

Oh dear, Pippin is so.....helpful. lol, I was afraid Lily was some sort of animal or some such thing. Poor Gimli all that work and it wasn't what he thought it was at all! I guess maybe the adventure helped to cure his broken heart! Thank you for the laugh!

Author Reply: It's good to hear you liked it, and you were right about Lily being animal :) (I'm sorry about the late reaction, btw.)

LMAO! If Pippin ever comes after me with a remedy for anything, I'm running the other way as fast as I can! His cures are deadly. I really enjoyed this. :)

Author Reply: I think you'd better :) Sorry I'm so late, but thanks for reading and reviewing.

What a treat! There aren't nearly enough Pippin-Gimli scenes out there. I love Pippin's unshakable faith in the "cure", and I particularly love these lines:

"We could use a thread from your cloak. Um, “Pippin concluded, “my cloak.”

"I really think my broken heart is less painful than your cures."

I can see Gimli chuckling over this whole thing later, and feeling much better.


Author Reply: I know I'm very very late with this, but thank you. I'm very glad you liked it :)

I have to agree with Gimli. After that, a broken heart seems much less of a problem.

Author Reply: Sorry I'm so very late with responding, but I still want to thank you for your review :)

Cute! D'you suppose the laughter is part of the relaxation?

(Did you make those up, or are they real exercises?)

Author Reply: Yes, I think laughter can be relaxing, but if it will cure a headache, I don't know.

And they're real. While trying failing to do that particular excercise, I got the idea for this little story.

Author Reply: Thank you. I think you will like the next chapter too. Or, at least, I hope you do :)
