YAY! I am breaking out the Gimli pom-poms as I read. Smile smiley face

Thank you thank you for writing a Gimlicentric ficlet. He has been so lonely out there with no fangirl support. And this peek into his thoughts was so eloquent and believable. I just love it.

Gimli fangirl.

Oh, how nice it is to see a bit where Denethor is *good* with kids. Usually he's depicted as such a horrible father. This goes a far way toward redeeming him. Thank you.

"Mirthful passion" ... what a fantastic phrase! Should inspire a whole subgenre, in my opinion. Smile smiley face

Very creative interpretation of "food" Wink smiley face

Also, I love your choice of POV character (won't spoil it here, even though it's a short piece... wow, how many drabbles have a twist?! Very cool!). Most impressive.

Yay! A *The Hobbit* fic! (Have you considered putting this in the Hobbit category rather than LoTR? It would be one of just a handful so might get more attention.) At any rate, I thought your choice to write from the spider's point of view and to consider "food" a little differently (dwarves!) was really creative and interesting. Good one!

This bit was brilliant: "specially when that soul was as heavy as Mr. Frodo’s." How like Sam to think of food and the weight of the world in one mental meander. And "put his foot on it" ... hee. Nice Sam moment.

Oooooh... the hard thing about writing Gollum is getting his hissy, cadent voice just right. And you *have*. I bow before the Mistress. Wow. (Subject matter is appropriate too ... have you written a Gollum-centric longer fic?)

The Tart…! · Tue Mar 22, 2005 3:52 pm

Fantastic! Brava! Love the phrase "impromptu marital feast." hee. And you've captured a moment of blissful domesticity just wonderfully. This is really really good.

Some Things Are Better · Tue Mar 22, 2005 3:50 pm

This is so essentially hobbit: bright and optimistic and earthy and dear. I love how easy he is, not letting himself become distressed when his plans change because of the little 'un.

The Lost Meal · Tue Mar 22, 2005 3:19 pm

lol... well, that's one way of talking about food, for sure. Smile smiley face

This was a sweet moment between brothers; nice work. (hint: You probably want to change "wretched" in the first line to "retched." Smile smiley face

)

[Oh, and this has nothing to do with the story, but your Simbelmyne icon is just lovely. Did you make it?]
