Oh, goodness! His first fanclub! It must be the eyes! *giggles*
I'd be one of those hobbit lasses, too I shouldn't wonder! Waiting for him to go walking by just to hide and giggle?!?! Yep! That's be me!!
*hugs hobbits*

Author Reply: Must be! And that fan club has grown and grown. I figure he must have been quite taken aback when people would come up to him and Sam in heaven and thank him until the professor got there to explain things!

Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

YOurs,

Reviewing two chapters now. I don't know how I missed these before.

So wonderful to see Frodo teasing Sam just a little bit!

Poor Gaffer; it's natural when we grieve to want to blame someone, but he's off the mark. Sauron is the only one to blame. Because of him the Ring came into existence, because of him the battle to destroy it the first time was lost, because of him Smeagol was enslaved and the Ring was brought to the caves beneath the Misty Mountains, because of him both Bilbo and Frodo were hurt, and others as well. Of course there is more involved. It was the Creator's will that Bilbo find the Ring and that it pass to Frodo, the only one who could, to be destroyed; if Smeagol hadn't been rather mean-spirited to start with he wouldn't have been enslaved so quickly. But still, it all goes back to Sauron.

And I love the talk with Marigold in the garden! She's so sweet, like her mother, I think.

Marigold’s eyes widened. Before she could think better of it, she took Frodo’s hand and wrapped her warm fingers around his cold ones. She and Sam had always
been the ones to rescue injured chicks and birds and nursing them back to health. Frodo reminded her of one of those poor little ones who needed some extra
tender loving care.

Awwww! I think he'll have all the extra TLC he needs between sam and the family and of course his cousins.

"I will tell you a secret, Mr. Frodo," she said as she looked down at his hand and began to stroke it gently. Part of her was horrified at her boldness,
part of her was applauded her courage and heart. "Daisy, May and I had the wildest liking for you when you first came. You were the most beautiful lad
we had ever seen and we were crazed with jealousy that our Sam saw you each day and we could only see you if you called or if you were out by yourself
or with Sam or Mr. Bilbo. We would beg Sam to tell us everything you said and did and when our mum would have him bring some cake or other sweet over to
you and Mr. Bilbo, we made sure to tell him to bring it to you in the hopes then when Sam brought back the empty basket, we would have something that you
had touched."

Frodo blushed furiously, totally at a loss of how to respond.

*giggles*

She wiped at the tears that streamed down Frodo’s cheeks and then kissed his cheek softly. "Believe in your own goodness, Mr. Frodo. It’s still there. We
can all see it. Now you have to look in the mirror and see it for yourself."

And will he?
God bless,
Galadriel

Author Reply: I'm glad he was up to teasing his dear also. :) Will he or won't he - that is the question isn't and we all know how terribly stubborn he can be, don't we? I got your EBH e-mail but am already over my lunch hour so can't respond now, much as I would like to stay in, as a friend of mine calls it, 'the real world' but work does call. You are in a bit of pickle though, aren't you, poor dear. :(

Namarie, God bless, Melinyel, Antane

And all who can see that Light of Being are blessed themselves, I think.

No wonder that Frodo is blushing at the admission of such crushes! But Marigold has the right of it. I hope that Frodo begins to take it in.
