The Case of the Disappearing Mushrooms

[elanorfairbairn]

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Merry, Pippin, Farmer Maggot
G-rated.  I had to take liberties with Farmer Maggot’s
character for the purposes of the story.  Somehow I don’t
think the good farmer would have need of the shirriffs!
It is set perhaps the year before the quest.
Just over 1000 words.

I love this 'diary' of a shiriff's dangerous job! What a wonderfully hobbity account.

[elanorfairbairn]

Aww, thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Awww! Ned is adorable. A dangerous job indeed. :D

The shirriffs' work is never done, poor things!

Gotta love cheeky little Hobbits:)

*chuckle* Little hope of the miscreants keeping their identity a secret, LOL!

Love the shirriff's idea of "dangerous"! Of course, if Missus Maggot feeds him too many mushrooms he might founder...

Indeed, he may become lost in the Woody End!
