Forever  by Lindelea 7 Review(s)

Sweet indeed and loving as only hobbits can do! Yes, Merry will have another bestest friend soon and Frodo will another bestest himself and the four will be together forever even when apart. Thank you.

Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Author Reply: Oh, how difficult that separation must have been, even with their hearts so knit together. Or maybe especially so.

Thanks!

The "heir business" from the other perspective... I really like how you make a connection between those pairs of cousins, and I think Frodo is very good at handling Merry's grief.

Greetings, Nienor

Author Reply: I always figured there had to be a deep love between the cousins, for Pippin and Merry to follow Frodo to the ends of the earth.

Thanks!

I was looking through your story list for young Frodo and Merry fics and this caught my eye...

This is so endearing, Lin, without being cloying…always something I appreciate in stories of hobbit children! There are some strikingly similiar scenes in later chapters of my WIP.

I especially liked this glimpse of a young child’s fears and limited understanding:
…death had looked just like sleep... he'd not gone to sleep, the first time he'd seen death.
This is just how a child thinks; I remember for a long time one of my sons had a huge fear of being buried alive.

Well done as usual!


Author Reply: Well, then, I look forward to reading your WIP!

Thanks!

That was almost too adorable to be allowed! I love the part about a new cousin being born! Merry is so adorable and Frodo is so sweet! Great job!

Author Reply: Thanks! (Just saw this review, sorry for the delay in answering)

Hooray for a sweet little Merry story. All I ussually see are little Pippins. Thank you. It was very sweet. :)

How cute! I'd never really stopped to consider that Frodo and Merry were close before he moved to Hobbiton. Your descriptions are really nice, and for the most part you capture hobbit innocence nicely. ^_^
