What a fun idea! Dolphins just rock! :-) So interesting to think of all the new and different friends that Frodo and Bilbo would have made there. It's also just funny -- Elwing is out the old days, history and the First Age ... yet Arwen is her granddaughter (w no 'greats' in front of it at all). :-P

A new life for the hobbits, and no mistake! I hope they lived long and happy lives there.

What a lovely little story w/two characters you do not see interacting w/each other very often, if at all, and I think that a shame. I've always thought Elwing and Frodo would be kindred spirits and wish more stories w/the two of them out there. I also love the animal Frodo chose to embody in those times of need. It's *perfect*!, i can so see Frodo being at home out there and being able to fly through the water would bring him comfort and healing. Such a wonderful little story!! Thanks my Friend!! :o)

Hi, Tigger! I'm always happy to hear from you. It was fun to bring Elwing and Frodo together. I'd love to believe that Frodo found this type of love and healing.

Very nice and a great, extraordinary gift for Frodo that helped to speed up the healing process immensely, I'm sure.

Oh, what a lovely thought, and what beautiful images! I love the idea of Frodo swimming with the Dolphins, with Elwing's help!

Author's reply

Thank you so much. So do I! I wish him many happy experiences like this.

Aww, this is very sweet and a perfect complement to Mews's story about Frodo's journey to the West and the dolphin he meets. What joy that must have brought him! I wonder what Sam thought of dolphin!Frodo when he arrived?

Author's reply

A most fascinating question indeed. *grins* Thank you, I'm so glad you enjoyed this. I'm insatiable when it comes to Happy!Frodo.

Awww. Reminds me of how one of the wee hobbits' favourite Pern novel is the one about the dolphins.

I'm so glad you enjoyed this. :)

Antane · 20 July 2015 · Chapter 1

What an interesting story. I never thought of Elwing being a source of healing for Frodo. I wonder which dolphin he is. :) Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Author's reply

I like to think that he's the one in the middle, smiling. :)

Larner · 20 July 2015 · Chapter 1

Indeed a lovely tribe with whom to bond and heal. Lovely indeed! You and Armariel would agree on this one, I think!

Author's reply

I'm so pleased that you like this. Frodo deserves every joy.
