A late Birthday mathom for my friends!

Jul 02, 2015 12:27

The past few years I have kind of had a tradition of giving my friends a new story set in the Eucatastrophe-AU for my birthday. This one is a day late, due to me having an unexpected errand that took me out of town yesterday, and also to some formatting trouble and a keyboard with the hiccups. At any rate, here is my birthday mathom for this year! ( Read more... )

Thank you, dear! It was quite fun to write, even with all my technical difficulties!

What an excellent birthday mathom! I love all the detail you consistently weave into the Shire and its denizens. I can really immerse myself into their world when reading your fic, and of course, I always enjoy reading about Diamond and Pippin. Got a kick out of their flirtation and promises for "later."

And the new invention! "Little hammers" works very nicely as a name for the instrument.

I like to show my happily married hobbit couples flirting. No reason to stop flirting after the vows are said!

I really struggled with a name. But I figure "little hammers" was at least as descriptive a name for the M-e version as "soft/loud" is for the RL version, LOL! (And of course, nowadays we only call it "soft" no matter how loudly we play it!)

Happy belated birthday and I enjoyed the story very much. I like a universe that still contains Frodo alive and well and writing a book. This was lots of fun. Very inventive too and it fooled me because I thought it might be a xylophone. Anyway hope your birthday was a happy one and thank you for the hobbits tale.

So glad you liked it! ((((hugs))))

I never thought about a xylophone, but I bet they had them in M-e somewhere!

What a lovely idea for a gift!

Thank you!

My Pippin's always been musically talented, so that's why a musical instrument is so right for him.
