He holds the gate by the road open for her, then skips in front of her again, leading the way. "This is part of Buckland, which is Merry's family's. I used to vist quite often when I was younger."

She closed the gate carefully and followed, smiling brightly. "What a perfect place t' go! Must've been happy."

[thainoftheshire.livejournal.com]

"Yes, well, except for Frodo. His parents died not far from here, then he went to live with Bilbo in Hobbiton."

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

"Oh! How? Bilbo's nice, though?"

"They were boating. Bucklanders are all a bit off in the head." He taps his forehead in emphasis.

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

"Aye. Boatin'. I know how t' do that." She tapped her forehead, mimicking the gesture.

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

"Unfortunate, that."

[thainoftheshire.livejournal.com]

"Aye, but what can you do?" He smiles slightly.

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

"Change th' world, but you're 'ready done that, yeah?"

[thainoftheshire.livejournal.com]

"We did our best," he says, looking down in embarrassment.

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

"You did real good." She grinned a goofy little grin and reached for his hand.

[thainoftheshire.livejournal.com]

He blushes slightly and takes her hand gently.

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

She squeezed his hand.

[thainoftheshire.livejournal.com]

"Thank you," he murmurs shyly.

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

"Thank you," she whispered back.

[thainoftheshire.livejournal.com]

"Ah, well." He smiles nervously and drops her hand, turning onto a small track that winds between the trees.

She stepped along behind him, carefully, quietly. She liked where she was, and she was content.

"There's a lovely little brook right through here," Pippin says, waving towards the woods in front of them.

[victormakesart.livejournal.com]

She nodded, then craned her neck forward, straining to see ahead. "Sounds grand, then."

"I thought you'd like to see it."
