    Summary

    Summary

    Frodo Baggins is not in the habit of talking to spirits. Doing so makes people whisper about him, and whispers spread quicker than dandelion seeds in the Shire. Luckily for him, the dead are easy to ignore: they are wispy, dull-minded and stuck in their own fixed routines, and they hardly ever notice Frodo’s passing glances.

    The spirit that visits Mr. Bilbo every Wednesday without fail is none of those things.

    Summary

    "I was just thinking that you aren't talking much."

    "...I'm talking to you now, aren't I?"

    "You are," Pippin admits. "But... you're not really saying anything, if you understand what I mean."

    The quest is over, and Merry is home, standing a whole foot taller than when he left. But with Frodo gone and Pippin coming of age, Merry isn't sure how he fits into anything anymore.

    Summary

    “You are being very kind to me,” he said, subdued.

    “Far kinder than you deserve, I daresay,” said Gandalf. “There's nothing like a Took for making trouble, but you have outdone all your family tree, my lad.”

    Pippin did not answer. At another time he would have risen to the barb, offered up the wide-eyed wounded innocence that had gotten him out of many a scrape, perhaps even found a way to slyly imply Gandalf’s culpability instead of his own – but he was sick and frightened, and something still hurt somewhere deep, something he did not want to think about.

    Pippin reckons with what Sauron left of him.

    Summary

    Frodo sighs, and looks over at Sam. “Will you still have me, if I do not have my toe?”

    Sam looks aghast in response, and frowns at him, “You will be keeping your toe, Frodo!” And then he pauses. “Besides, you know I’m not a feet-involved hobbit.”

    “Oh, good.”
