i love Bilbo angst especially regarding Frodo taking on a burden that used to be his... I am glad that it is written about~ good job :)

Powerfully written, with nice use of details. The lads walking about with unlively steps, too old for Quests, innocents paying for others' mistakes, saying goodbye with his eyes, can't watch them walk away, swallowed by shadows.

You paint a vivid word picture in this little glimpse.

Nothing like a review from one of my favourite authors to brighten up my day. I'm flattered!

Oh! That was wonderful! The way you caught Bilbo emotion and the difficutly of saying good bye when he feels so responsible for everything! Looking forward to the others!

I hope to post the next one in a few days, as long as my muse doesn't desert me.

How wonderfully poingant that was! Poor Old Bilbo! You really nailed that one, Beruthiel! Beautiful little ficlet. You made me tear up at work! So not good! LOL

Thank you for this lovely insight.
