Take Them As Was Willing by Baylor

Wow. This last chapter left me in tears. I always wanted to hear a conversation from Merry to his Da about this matter. I’ve read several wonderful different versions of what it might have looked like when he came back from the Quest, but never before he departed. This was absolute perfection. Thank you!!!

Ooh, I like this chappie the best so far! I'd like to hear a story of just what happened between the Tooks, Boffins, and the Hornblower estate! I really like the way that all of your stories tie together. Cheers!

I read this some time ago and it has since been influential in making Merry my second favorite hobbit (Frodo is my first). A poignant tale of the courage love engenders. Nicely done.
