    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

    Their little band of conspirators was rich with loyalty and stout hearts, but Merry had been the one to make the preparations, to list out and discreetly purchase supplies and provisions; he was the one who had lain awake in his bed night after night in the months leading up to Frodo's departure from Bag End, making sure he hadn't forgotten anything that would be wanted.

    All his meticulous planning was being dismantled piece by piece in front of him. There was a stranger in their company. And he could not scrub the feeling of evil hands from his skin.

    Summary

    Anyone who pays attention can read it, though. The whole suffering in silence thing. Frank knows that well enough. It’s evident in the long looks he gets from that one girl behind the register at the cafe where he always gets their breakfast. She always looks like she knows, like she’s got something to say, or like she wants to crawl over the counter and give him a hug.

    But he’s got places to be, and breakfast to drop off with a starving artist who spends all of his free time drawing, and storyboarding, and dreaming big about comics, and all of the beautiful things he plans to do with his life.
