Beautifully written!

I always missed Tolkien saying something of the families' feelings when their boys disappear and then suddenly come back.. You've captured Esmeralda's feelings so well in so few words.. And the idea of a "present" is great!

I've been thinking for a while now whether to write a longer piece about when the hobbits return to their families, especially about Pippin, now I think I'm going to write it when I find the time. Your drabble is certainly inspiring!Smile smiley face

Great job!

That was so beautiful and so sad *huggles Esmeralda* Let's just say, thank Eru that Merry did come home, safe and sound. Smile smiley face
And thank you for this lovely drabble! Very Happy smiley face

Very good! I really liked this perspective. That would indeed be the best birthday present he could give on his birthday to her. Loved this one.

Big Hug smiley face That was absolutely beautiful, especially since Merry and Pippin seem to waltz back during the Scouring and no-one says anything about their disappearance (and most fanfic is about Pip and his dad). Great job!
Cheers,

Ai, poor Esmeralda, well then, why do the Mothers always have to suffer. You painted a beautiful picture of a worried Hobbit mom in just 100 words! A great job!
