Size isn't Everything  by Bodkin 22 Review(s)

Ah, wonderful, Bodkin! They ARE Hobbits, after all, and excellent providers, given the chance! At least Merry was able to defeat the wild pig and not the other way around!

Eee!!! Hobbit cleverness and resilience to the rescue! I'd have given my eyeteeth to have seen the Big Folk's faces upon entering the camp. What a great fic---enjoyed it so much.

That was wonderful. I loved the line about Merry being too much of a dandy to wear a bloody shirt! I adored the way Pippin seemed to take Gandalf in his stride as if he were a normal every-day person rather than a wizard. And the way Merry moved in for the kill on the boar was excellent. I also enjoyed the fact that everyone knew Sam was the only member of the hobbits little group who might have proved himself indispensable to the rest of the Fellowship. Hobbits and food! If anyone could smell truffles it *would* be Pippin! I loved it all!

Fun! Especially Merry and Pippin and the dinner they procured.

Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Oh, Bodkin, this was an absolute delight. I'm so glad the poor disrespected hobbits got to show their quality - like chickens taking charge of the farmyard LOL! They were all wonderful, but Sam here particularly stole my heart. Happy Birthday, Lindelea!

Oh, this is wonderful! How very resourceful of Merry and Pippin (and quick-thinking, as well). I particularly like the amazement of the rest of the Fellowship when they return from the hunt to find supper all ready. There's some lovely dialogue between Merry and Pippin as well!

Oh, *grin* Lin's going to *love* this! I most certainly do!

The hobbity banter, and Pippin's confidence, and Gandalf's testiness--it's just so perfect!

I have to say, I really like the way Merry brought down the pig, and Gandalf's scolding after--especially the part about the shirt and the bloodstains! Merry? A dandy? *giggle*

But what I really loved was your ending, as Gandalf enjoys the befuddlement of all those "big, strong warriors"! LOL! Yes, indeed! Size isn't everything--and what hobbits lack in stature, they more than make up in determination and sheer cheek! *happy sigh* *goes to read again*

This was great fun! I can imagine the look of the flabbergasted hunters... *g*

Very nicely done, Bodkin! I love Pippin the truffle hunter LOL.

A delightful story :-)

They say an army marches on its stomach! And I loved the bounce in Gandalf's step.LBJ
