Wow. Impressive, for once the shortness gives it the exact touch - any longer and this startling effect would be ruined! Wonderful and elegantly written!  |

Very well done! Beautifully written! I can feel the emptiness of a room full of things, the desolation; Pippin's pain, wanting -- needing to feel a connection to Boromir one last time.
Brava, Nancy, BRAVA! |

OH! *heartfelt sigh* The empty room. Yes. You got it exactly right, and in a drabble, no less!
"(I touch everything)" so very Pip, "But no one comes." a perfect last line... |

| Oh, my. How lovely. I can feel the hollowness there... the quietness. Poor Pip, he'll have to learn to accept it. |

I don't usually like drabbles to be honest, but this was very moving. Actually if you ever did a longer scene on this same theme, I'd be really interested to read it, though you managed to get the sentiment across ably in this. (As in, I'm not saying this is too short. What I mean is, I think with your insight into that moment, you could have a real tear-jerker if you decided to expand on it ) |

This is my first drabble read/review ... It's beautiful. You were able to express so much in so few words. I didn't read the summary before the drabble, but I knew it was Boromir's room, and the "fool" mention made me think of Pippin. This has really made me ponder on their friendship. They traveled together for only a few weeks, but you present the lasting effect the fellowship had in their lives. You are also able to portray Pip's character really well ("I touch everything" ... I'm sure Gandalf would agree!). |
