Wow that was brilliant! And shoooooooooo funny! Love your style of writing.

~“It’s good,” Ron said after a moment. “Yeah. Good. Er, you’ve got something in your garden, did you know?”
“It’s Gollum,” a voice said from the hall. “He’s been living there for three years.” ~

Gosh that so had me cracking up... and I so can see Merry & Pip working with Fred & George... they're just so alike, right? Plus the hobbits wearing skater clothes... oh I love this fanfiction, please do write more!

Cameos? OOOH I want one! Only kidding Wink smiley face what about the dragon from Neverending Story? Fufur he is called in English I believe? I love that one Wink smiley face

Uh, that was weird... did he kill himself in the end now? *ponders*

First ... I liked that story... I like Merry & Pippin fanfiction so this was a real treat Smile smiley face The inscription of the gravestone was beautifully chosen and I also liked Pippin's thoughts ... the way he lit two pipes and also the thing about Merry liking the sound of the waves... (totally can relate to THAT! Very Happy smiley face ).

Only ... the ending ... Pippin killing himself... I don't think he'd do that, it seems Out Of Character to me ... I can't imagine a hobbit thinking of really commiting suicide. Maybe just lose the will to live ... but 'actively' ending his own life ... *shrug* seems weird to me... so I think it didn't really fit. Or maybe you should have focused a bit more on how much he misses Merry to make like ... more ... logical?

Ok this was certainly not meant as offence, and I liked your story, really... the idea was great and it was written lovely... just that one tiny thing that somehow ... bothered me *lol*

Take care

Oh my God ... brilliant, absolutely brilliant! Just like I could have written it ... not saying I'm brilliant, just ... I loved it! I have always figured that Merry & Pippin had quite a special kind of friendship (just like you described it), but it's hard to find ff these days with focus on them which is not slash ... so thank you a thousand times!

I loved the way you managed to write your own thing and yet make it fit to the rest of the book, and though it was a bit movie-like, at the same time it was very Tolkien-ish. All your characters are so human and fragile, and I like that. It's so ... real, you know?

When Legolas said Goodbye to Merry, I started to cry ... and I tell you, it takes quite something for a story or novel to get me cry!

Great work! Loved that one!
