*grins* Lovely! Frodo the healer does very well, I find.

I agree. It's always a joy to place a hobbit in the healer role.

“A Dwarf, an Elf, and a hobbit juggling together, now that would indeed be a sight!” Wonderful little story! Thank you very much!

Author's reply

Thanks, Andrea! When I can get the characters (and readers!) to smile, my heart is happy. :)

Antane · 11 December 2015 · Chapter 1

That was a sweet story! How thoughtful for Frodo and Aragorn to find this way to ease Elrond's heart. And to give themselves some joy too. I love that image of Frodo running into his king's arms and also the three jugglers. :) Namarie, God bless, Antane :)

Author's reply

Thank you, Antane. There can never be enough joy for our beloved hobbit and his friends. Can't you just imagine Frodo juggling? What fun. :)

It will do Frodo a lot of good to help someone else laugh! He, too, needs it after the long, desperate months. That is a nice conspiracy. (Oh, by the way, is Frodo juggling three or four balls? There are mentions of red, yellow, green and blue, but also "the three balls". Is Elrond holding the red one?) I liked analysis of why the southern window was so nice. Either Faramir knew he should choose a neutral location or it was an accident, but in any case it must have made Elrond's stay in the city easier.

Author's reply

Thank you for catching that error! I changed 'blue' to 'red'. Three cheers for happy conspiracies. I'm pleased you enjoyed this.

Lovely, uplifting story. Good job.

Thank you so much! :)

Now, that is delightful--in aiding the Ringbearer to regain his dexterity Elrond himself is unwittingly gaining needed comfort! Oh, yes! Go, Aragorn and Frodo!

Author's reply

I doubt Elrond smiled very much during those days, but his friends to the rescue!

quodamat · 6 December 2015 · Chapter 1

This is so very charming! Trust a hobbit and a Dwarf to cheer up a melancholy Elf. I can just picture Elrond in Valinor, showing Celebrian his new trick when she needs cheering up after hearing about Arwen.

Author's reply

That's a sweet idea indeed. Thank you for reading!

PSW · 6 December 2015 · Chapter 1

Aww...so sweet! That's fantastic, I can totally see the hobbits loving something like juggling. :-) And I really love that Elrond loves it so much -- makes him seem a little more real, somehow, that he would get so excited about it. Very nice, thanks for writing!

Author's reply

Thank you so much. The characters are so real to us, and it's such fun to give them a reason to smile and laugh.
