Now, now Miss Mun - do at least try to contain your excitement. Why, the shenanigans, as you call them, have yet to happen after all! And we're still missing Sam, of all Hobbits!

You're trying so hard not to smile that I think your cheeks must sting something awful.

[pipeweed]

...I have no idea what you're talking about.

[ WHISTLES ]

[iorhael]

You, cousin, are trying not to look terribly excited and failing spectacularly.

[pipeweed]

Shush, Frodo. I'm trying to turn over a new leaf, don't you know?

[iorhael]

Yes, I can see that. The toll it's taking on you looks dreadful.

[pipeweed]

Oh, but I will persevere at it - just you wait. Apparently I have seen too much of this world not to! And someone ought to set an example for both you and Pip, of course!

[iorhael]

[that earns Merry a snort]

You! Setting a responsible example!

[although he does seem different.]

[pipeweed]

[ pfft you disbeliever you!

...although the word responsible does make him cringe. ] Perhaps that isn't the right word, though. Exemplary - maybe?

[iorhael]

It could work but I think I prefer responsible.

[pipeweed]

But it's such a... Baggins word.

[iorhael]

You didn't need to say it as if Baggins were another word for dull. [maybe before Bilbo taking off into the blue, it might have!]

Anyway, You make it sound like such a terrible thing. Responsibility is a sign of growing up and coming of age.

Which you have yet to do still, apparently.
