Still howling!!! Keep it coming pleeese! And thanks for including Legolas.

Author Reply: Yay! I like making people laugh. :)

Legolas is fun to write, especially when he's in context with the hobbits. I always thought that he had great potential for being truly hilarious.

It's against their CODE? Love it!! Omigosh, this story is hysterical.

The voice in his ear was soft and velvety, and just slightly sinister. Pippin jumped a foot high and yelped.

“Let’s go join Frodo,” Merry said at last, dodging Pippin’s question. “No one can get us in his room.”


Hah! They can get you anywhere, Merry!

:D



Author Reply: Lol, I was watching "Pirates of the Caribbean" while writing it, and the line "keep to the code" inspired me. Of course, Merry's totally wrong, but that's what makes it funny. ^_^

Elves do not pull pranks! It’s against their code, or something.

Do they not? (Well, that contradicts about a million twin stories!) And they might watch - with a look of faint bemusement. Although I think certain elves might be willing to take a more active part.

Legolas took his time spreading a thin cake flat and filling it with strawberries and cream. If he had not been so agitated, Pippin would have been interested; he had never seen that mixture on hotcakes before.

Pippin must be in a panic if it takes his attention off food - especially strawberries and cream.

Luinil gazed at the smug Ranger drily for a moment, than took the tray. She had had far too much experience with this particular mortal to not know when he was up to something.

She's humouring him! Strider is being made to feel like an indulged kid! How entertaining.

Well - I hope he realises that the war can - and will - get much worse. And probably involve others. (I can hope!)



Author Reply: Merry only thinks they don't pull pranks: he hasn't been in Rivendell long enough to see the Elves as anything but serene. I'm sure once this gets rolling that the twins, at least, will get involved. Hee!

Poor Pippin. He's used to retaliation swifter than Aragorn's.

There's that line from TTT, where Legolas calls Gimli and Aragorn children, and I can only imagine the Elves thinking of Aragorn as such. It must make the poor man crazy, to be a full grown adult and still humoured!

Oh, but LOL! Lovely and hilarious all at once. I can`t wait for more. It`s fun seeing the mischeivious streak in Strider coming out. :D

Author Reply: Isn't Strider cute when he's devious? I'm having such fun with this!

I, too, am howling with laughter, I must say. Aragorn son of Arathorn is afraid of a BULLFROG???? The Captain of the Rangers and Chieftain of the Dunedain? Oh, how wonderful!

Author Reply: Yes, it would be a bullfrog, wouldn't it? The smallest thing, lol. I'm glad you like it!

Author Reply: The twins may become involved eventually. I'm basically doing whatever the characters tell me to right now. I'm glad you like it!

Wow, GREAT idea... awesome beginning, too. I can't wait to read more about it!

Author Reply: Thank you! It's going surprisingly quickly, so be on the look out!

Heehee, I love it! Even though I know the title's from Shakespeare, I can't help thinking it a little clever that Merry was the hobbit who started it. And I absolutely love the thought of Aragorn screaming like a girl! Legolas's response was also priceless. I can't wait to see what Aragorn's retaliation is!

Author Reply: Shakspeare is so much fun to pun, and this was the perfect opportunity! I'm glad you like this fic!

That's so funny! Aragorn, the fearless ranger, afraid of frogs!
And what made me grin, too, was that Pippin is afraid of Diamond, his bossy cousin. Well, seems he changed his mind in the end ;-)

Aragorn is a clever ranger, though! Maybe he WILL ask Frodo, and if he does, Merry and Pippin will have a very difficult time!

Author Reply: Frogs are the silliest thing to be afraid of, aren't they? Poor Aragorn. I don't know if he's going to tell Frodo, as right now I'm being led blindly by these characters. I'm glad you like the fic!

BodkinReviewed Chapter: 1 on 6/20/2005
Well, Aragorn may have decided that he can play as well - but he is confronting Merry! And Pippin. He really should take some advice from Frodo before deciding he's up to the challenge!

Author Reply: I don't think Aragorn knows quite what he's up against yet. Poor man. He'll be much wiser about dealing with hobbits by the time this war is through!
