harrowcat · 20 October 2007 · Chapter 36: Curtains for Frodo

Having another person to care for really does change a bachelor's life in so many ways. Love to see the smaller ones too! And clever Bell.

Larner · 15 October 2007 · Chapter 35: I see hobbits everywhere, you know

Black and orange, eh? And now the pumpkin patch reminds Bergil of the Hobbits? Hehehehehehehe!

Author's reply

Am going to the pumpkin patch next week. Wonder how many hobbits will be there?

harrowcat · 13 October 2007 · Chapter 35: I see hobbits everywhere, you know

This gave me a giggle over on the other site so I am very pleased to see it here! BTW - I 'friended' you over there. Hope that you don't mind.

Author's reply

I don't mind at all. Will be happy to return the honour. I didn't see a notice from LJ; did you friend lindelea1? "lindelea" is not me, and sometimes people forget to add the number "1" to the userID. Thanks!

LOL LOL LOL

Author's reply

Thanks!

Larner · 23 September 2007 · Chapter 34: Farewell by Starlight

Ah, so your Folco knows! Nothing ever happens to Freddy? Ah, if only! Love it, Lindelea.

Author's reply

Yes... from the comments I've read about Folco's not-knowing, I think I need to go back and read the early chapters again, to see if I missed something!

harrowcat · 23 September 2007 · Chapter 34: Farewell by Starlight

(laugh) Nothing ever happens to me! Oh yeah? Famous last words! Get ready for a shock Freddy life is about to change!

Author's reply

LOL! Perhaps I ought to have titled this one "Famous Last Words"!

eiluj · 23 September 2007 · Chapter 33: Topsy-Turvy

I'm sure Lobelia will thank Folco for his innovative furniture arrangement! At Caltech there is a tradition of pulling pranks on the dorm rooms. My father told me about one where they *did* nail someone's furniture to the ceiling -- everything was upside down! [Another prank involved moving one guy's stuff and carefully arranging it in the room one floor above his; another time they assembled a Model T inside someone's room.]

Author's reply

You know, I remember hearing similar stories! Hmmm. I remember once someone filled a dorm room entirely with balloons, such that you could hardly open the door. They must've climbed out through the window, but it was on the third floor, as I recall!

Larner · 21 September 2007 · Chapter 33: Topsy-Turvy

Ah, was just listening to Rob Inglis reading that yesterday. How wonderful if he were to do it literally! Heh!

Author's reply

Wouldn't it be? I can just picture it.

Larner · 21 September 2007 · Chapter 32: A Moot Point

Ah, I feel for him! I wanna go, too, and see some of my friends in Britain, and visit Doune again! (Larner throws herself down and weeps and mourns!)

Author's reply

Ah, yes. Haven't been to Scotland in years... I hope they all have a lovely time, but I wish I was there.

harrowcat · 21 September 2007 · Chapter 32: A Moot Point

Exactly how I feel! But I have to work so beer isn't a solution for me!

Author's reply

(Wanna know a secret? I don't like beer! Am a wine drinker. Old Winyards, mmm.)

harrowcat · 21 September 2007 · Chapter 33: Topsy-Turvy

*g* And imagine one very jealous fanfic reader standing at the bottom end of the UK waving frantically as the mooters fly over!

Author's reply

Ai, I can certainly imagine it! (Had hopes of going, back before our car died and we had to buy another.)

Raksha The Demon · 21 September 2007 · Chapter 7: Dernhelm's Ride

Personally, I'd have thought that staying at home and watching the pups play with the children much more pleasant than riding to almost certain death and then challenging an undead demon-king; but that's why I didn't get a place in the legends of my people, not to mention Faramir. Excellent drabble, btw.

Author's reply

Belated thanks! Somehow I missed seeing a lot of reviews from this period of time, sorry. LOL! (You're right, a high price to pay, even for Faramir. But I bet he was worth it.)

Agape4Gondor · 23 August 2007 · Chapter 7: Dernhelm's Ride

Well thought -

Author's reply

Thanks!

Agape4Gondor · 23 August 2007 · Chapter 6: Fireside Chats

Nasty little moment for Gandalf. Had he already lost Frodo and the quest not even begun yet?

Author's reply

Amazing, the echoes that tie end to beginning.

Agape4Gondor · 23 August 2007 · Chapter 5: The Silent Street

Hideous time for Beregond...

Author's reply

Absolutely.

Agape4Gondor · 23 August 2007 · Chapter 4: The Moon Sees Somebody I'd Like to See

My goodness - you write these drabbles well! Congrats. Another excellent piece. I love your little endings... but they would be as nothing without the beginnings...

Author's reply

Thanks! These two drabbles sprang from a song we sing when the moon's full, or nearly so.

Agape4Gondor · 23 August 2007 · Chapter 3: I See the Moon and the Moon Sees Me

Excellent! Perfect! Yup - just perfect.

Author's reply

Thanks!

Agape4Gondor · 23 August 2007 · Chapter 2: Questions

Oh bless Pippin -

Author's reply

Ah, yes, little ones can ask questions at a rate of one a minute... or faster.

Agape4Gondor · 23 August 2007 · Chapter 1: "And get my pipe out of my pack, if it isn't broken."

"May the Shire live for ever unwithered!" Nice job.

Author's reply

Amen to that!

Larner · 20 August 2007 · Chapter 31: Laughing Layabouts

An old joke, but always a good one--a little goose grease and soot would do it! (I once used some greasepaint stage makeup for a similar joke I pulled on a friend. Heh!)

Author's reply

Heh!

Antane · 19 August 2007 · Chapter 26: Respite

Not only do I have a hobbit after my own heart, but now a Man. A fellow dreamer and reader. Love it and him. Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Author's reply

Thank you! I think Frodo and Faramir had a lot in common, actually.

Antane · 19 August 2007 · Chapter 27: Sam and the Baker's Dozen

I love it! Ever practical Sam, so wise and loving! Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Author's reply

Very much so... down-to-earth and knowing just the right thing (and probably learned over the course of previous pregnancies...) *g* Thanks!

harrowcat · 19 August 2007 · Chapter 31: Laughing Layabouts

Ha, Ha! There is also a funny bit inoneof the HP books where Hermione falls foul of one of the Twins' telescopes andends up with a black eye!

Author's reply

I hadn't read that, but I can just imagine her reaction! Thanks!

shirebound · 19 August 2007 · Chapter 31: Laughing Layabouts

LOL, I remember that M*A*S*H episode. Oh, those wacky hobbits.

Author's reply

Wacky, yes, just the word. *g* Thanks!

Pearl Took · 19 August 2007 · Chapter 31: Laughing Layabouts

MEWD!! (I remember that M*A*S*H episode :-) )

Author's reply

LOL, it was a funny one! Thanks!
