Thinking of You  by Grey Wonderer 107 Review(s)

This is so sensitively written. Pip's memories are returning, but it's easy to see how fragmented and confusing things still are for him.

Author Reply: Thank you for the kind words. I think it can be interesting how people remember events even if they haven't been injured. It's how we get so many different accounts of one event. I decided that it would be even more-so with an injury.

Oh, I can't stop reading this! What a poignant moment when Pippin remembered the boat!

Author Reply: I wanted to start with something small, and yet, important to Pippin. I thought it would be interesting if, even though he goes about it the wrong way, Merry jump-starts things in a way he doesn't expect. I like a surprise now and again. If you see anything that doesn't ring true, let me know.

I'm *finally* getting time to read this wonderful story! I'm already mesmerized, and it's only chapter 2. I do love...

"I doubt that our Pippin will ever be safe for very long no matter who he is with," Frodo smiled. "No, Merry, that one has a high sense of adventure. He doesn’t think before he acts. The only thing you’ll do by turning him away is leave him without his best protector."



Author Reply: Thank you so much! I hope you enjoy the rest of it. Thank you for reviewing!

Great characterization--and you did all of that within one chapter! Well done.
(sniffing on the side--more tissue!)

Ohhh..."Momma." So cute! I love this...I had to get a new box of tissue!

LOL...now I understand what you meant about Pearl waylaying Frodo in Merry's Decision! I loved your comment about Frodo being along in a room with two Took females! Gosh, we do think alike!

PF

Author Reply: Yes we do! Two brains, on the same course. Frightening, isn't it? I like strong female characters and I think that the Took women usually fit that description.

Oh, this was *such* a lovely story. Had my heart aching for Pippin. I really love how this was written and the ingenuity of it all. Very well done, I'd say. :)

sniff. This is so sad...so good.

Author Reply: This is why I am trying to write a happier one now! I got so into this one that I depressed myself!

I haven't read the chapter yet, but Pearl told me about the cookies being biscuits... I gather biscuits in fair old England may be (and I'm guessing here) rolls? Help--someone from England--help! Now I have to go back and change all the cookies in my stories...

btw, if I spot any cookies I'll eat them!! :-)

Pippinfan

Author Reply: Please eat them all! They are not to darken the pages of this story again. They are biscuits now! Cookies are for Girl Scouts, not Hobbits!

sniff. So compelling. I felt Frodo's strain to keep from throwing my arms around Pippin to comfort the little lad.
