This is a great drabble, taking Frodo on quite a journey in so short a time - through apprehension to anger to peace. Good job.

I like this drabble, despite the fact that it seems to offer little more than Tolkien's original text. I do particularly like that Merry, after all this trouble, greets Pippin so simply and characteristically. Good old Merry!

"Joy now intermingles with toil" just about summarizes all of Aragorn's relationship with Arwen, I think; you caught it.

Great that you caught the promise and excitement the Dwarves must have felt at the outset of Balin's mission. And it seems Bilbo has never quite shaken the treasure-lust he got exploring Smaug's horde. NYou so succinctly and prettily captured the Baggins/Took argument he must have had everyday over something.

This is really great, Marta. Again you've found a wonderfully important but unexplored moment in the story and made it your own. "What land birthed his fathers" is a great line - not just the usual wondering but asking about lineage and trust, history. Very interesting how you encompassed Thengel's own upbringing, his adulthood, and Thorongil's so neatly.

Interesting ... a nice mixing of standard ideas and a new view. I'm glad you posted it.

I can't decide if you meant the end tongue-in-cheek or not, which is good because I enjoy reading it both ways - humorous/ironic and poignant. This is a nice portrait, full for all its brevity.

I thought this was very nice. You did an excellent job showing us the differences and sympathies between Elrond and Elros, and brought this full circle to Aragorn. Their feelings were very clear and moving. Good job.

Well done, Rous! I didn't know where this challenge would go and you have done a good and facile job of it, while still giving us a sensitive and true glimpse into poor Pippin's guilty psyche.
