Hehehehehehehehe! Beard envy?

Author Reply: Personally, I think Tolkien was wrong about beards. Poor Elves....

Oh you really have such a gift for turning the mood of a piece. This is marvellous GA. I can just see and smell the dust and to see Faramir learning the Springle-Ring is great!

Author Reply: Thanks! I like the challenge of telling a story in a set length. This one is exactly 500 words--a bit long for a real challenge, but Raksha wanted something specific for her birthday (Faramir on history, languages, music, lore).

like a dandelion in a dragon's den. Now that would be strange indeed *g*

I am glad that Gandalf told Gimli that it is GOOD luck! I t wouldn't have helped the relationship to tell him the opposite.

Author Reply: Indeed, at this point, the relationship needs a lot of help. But things will soon change.

I've just read this on HASA as well. Lovely ficlet. I particularly love Pippin's comment: “They all have the same name,” Pippin said. “Ar-this, Ar-that, and Ara-something.”

“Do you know why?”

“Lack of imagination?”
Wonderful!

And the image of Faramir and Pippin dancing the Springle-ring together (a pretty dance, but rather vigorous) is priceless. Thank you for this.

Author Reply: I've got this image in my head of couples all through the seven circles dancing....sounds fun.

Thanks for reviewing!

I can just imagine someone coming across Faramir and Pippin dancing their way through the dusty archives! A lovely image.

Author Reply: Let's hope they didn't knock over too many stacks of books....

I am sitting here cackling like a loon at this MOST excellent story! It's a good thing no one's home or, by Durin's ax, they'd have me committed! What a hoot! Legolas is building up his 'good luck', I suppose! And Gimli with his beard envy! *snickers* This was amazing, GA! I bow to your superior wit!:-)

Author Reply: I'm so glad you enjoyed it. It was a hoot to write, too! The things my muse says....

I hope Pippin manages to be there when he inveigles the two into meeting. Aragorn will be having a fair few of these confrontations - but I suspect they are all going to make entertaining viewing.

Author Reply: Then there's the whole question of whether Theoden recognized him....
