I am so glad that Merry got to see his mom. She seems very nice and I know she has missed him. Another great chapter! Going off to read more now.

I think she's right, that wasn't the end of the conversation! I don't know what to hope for at this point. Merry should have his father, but Paladin has been that for so long how can this go well? Help me out here. LOL

This is very good! I love that they are now having a happy moment. I think Merry needs that right now. Keep posting. It's very good!

Author Reply: Yes, I believe he did, too. There were some lighter moments, but they really didn't do the story any good, so I took them out. When I'm finished, I will post the re-edited actual story on ff.net, and give anyone the link should they want the whole story. Trust me, they were nice moments, but didn't really follow the storyline. Thanks, GW, for your reviews and input!

Oh, my! Saradoc has been through quite a heart-ache. It isn't fair to Merry, but it explains so much! I am enjoying this story and I am glad that Merry now knows the truth. At least he will see that it is nothing that he has done. Well, off to read more.

Poor Frodo! Seems like he is the one with all of the headaches in your fiction too! LOL I love this story, but I do hope that Saradoc doesn't take Merry home! I know that won't be a good thing judging by the first part of this story. Off I go to read more.

Your story is compelling, and I'm enjoying it very much.

But you need to do some more editing or maybe have someone beta it, to catch little mistakes like this one:

Paladin quietly gently Merry’s back while he sobbed into his pillow.

I'm looking forward to reading more and seeing how this story ends.



Author Reply: Thank you, and I know I shouldn't be editing late in the evening, but that's just what I was doing last night...so sorry. I was tired and shouldn't have been editing, but I was and I did. Thanks for pointing that error out and I will go back and comb over the entire chapter...when I wake up more fully! :-X

Beta? (Smiling) Are you volunteering?? Because I sure could use one, but I don't know of any... It's not so bad editing other's work, but it's difficult doing your own projects because as a friend put it, your mind is already inserting the words... Thanks again.

Author Reply: Oh...! Boy, you were right--I caught more than one error myself. Hope I got them all. My apologies for posting that one so wrecklessly. The next time I feel myself too tired to edit, I promise to put my pen down.

A head injury! This is familiar! Where have I seen this before? LOL I just continue to be amazed by this. It's the same and yet it's not. Even Pearl is there looking after Pippin and once again Frodo has to send word to the unloving father! Only this time it's Saradoc! Do I know you from a past life or something? I'm reading more now!

Author Reply: LOL...Yeah, I was going to put a footnote in there saying Rags and MD were the only two stories I had with Merry getting a knock on the noggin (poor little guy!), but your hint seems to say you've got one as well...and it looks like I'm coming up on it. I'm on chapter 28...I think, and I AM going back as soon as I'm finished here.

Oh, you had me rolling! I've beenn wanting to ask you the same thing! My gosh, neither of us met until a couple days ago, and Wham! Our stories connect beyond belief! Too cool! I love this! Thanks for all your reviews!

I can't wait for more. I am like Pippin and am trying to decide what Merry will decide to do. He has two good offers now so I am thinking it will be a though choice. I think that Paladin might just turn the decision in the Took direction as Merry seems to love him dearly. Hope Merry and Pippin haven't broken anything with that fall.

Author Reply: Hang in there, girl! You'll have your answers soon enough! :-)

Way to go, Pippin! Troll's backside! hehehehe! This party is staring to get interesting. I need more ale and then I can read more. But wait! There isn't any more right now. Maybe someone will take pitty on me and post again soon. Cheers to you too!

Grey WondererReviewed Chapter: 9 on 1/18/2004
I just love it when Pippin sings! LOL I am now wondering just how much ale he will manage to have during this party. I hope Merry is having a good time too. I know I am enjoying the party!
