Chapter Seven: ... Frodo
~*~* The
Stats ~*~*
Name?: Frodo
Baggins
Race?: Hobbit…or
halfling
Sex?: Male
Eye color?: Blue
Hair color?: Dark brown
Fat/skinny?: Too
skinny, as Sam and Rosie tell me quite often
Tall/short?: I’m a
hobbit – short to anyone other than another hobbit. I suppose I would not seem too short to a
dwarf, either.
Were you named after anyone?: Not really
Do you have any siblings?: No
What are their names?: I don’t
have any.
If you could choose anyone to rule the world who would you
choose?: Gandalf the White.
Do you talk to voices in your head?:
Quite often, actually.
Do they tell you to do stuff?: Some of
the time.
Do you listen?: Not
generally.
Have you ever loved anyone?: In a
brotherly-love sort of way, yes. Romantically, no.
Who is your best female friend?: I suppose
Rosie Gamgee would qualify.
Who is your best male friend?: Oh, Sam,
of course!
Have you ever broken any bones?: Not
broken, no. Lost, however…
If so, which ones?: I lost the
third finger on my right hand.
Do you always get in trouble? With who?:
Trouble seems to follow me. The
entire quest into Mordor, for example, was one bit of trouble after another.
Do/did you get along with your parents?:
They died when I was young…
What do you do most often when you are bored?: Lie in bed
and stare at my ceiling. Or work on the
Red Book.
What are your favorite smells?: The air of the Shire…nothing else compares,
even the smell of the woods of Lothlórien, which runs a close second.
Which finger is your favorite?: I suppose
the one I don’t have…
~*~* Have you in the last 24
hours... ~*~*
...cried?: no…
...gotten in major trouble?: Not major
trouble…I received another scolding from Rosie about not eating enough, but
that’s becoming a rather common occurrence.
...cut your hair?: Actually,
yes. Dear Rosie trimmed it last night.
...eaten a meal?: A
few…though far fewer than dear old Sam would have me eat.
...made a new friend?: No.
...lost something?: Several
somethings. My pen, my glass of water,
my comb…
~*~* If you were stranded on an
island... ~*~*
...who would you take?: Sam and
Rosie and Merry and Pippin and Diamond and Estella and all their children and
Gandalf and…oh, most of the Shire.
...who would you take if you only had two people you could
bring?: I suppose Sam and Rosie, as Sam
would never be left behind and Rosie must come, too. Of course, their three children would have to
come along, since both of their parents were coming! Though, that’s five people…but it can’t be
helped, after all.
...what three things would you bring?:
Bilbo’s book, Galadriel’s phial, pens with ink.
...what island would you want to be stranded on?: Any quiet
island.
...what animal would you kill for food?: I wouldn’t.
...would you write on the sand "help!"?:
Yes, if the island were anywhere near an eagle eyrie.
...would you panic or relax?: After all
I have been through…relax. Being
stranded on an island seems to me to be a very minor occurrence.
~*~* Which
one? ~*~*
Winter or summer?: Summer, with the sun shining warmly
on the party field and Sam and Rosie chasing their little ones about.
The beach or the mountains?: Beach.
Day or night?: Definitely the day. Darkness holds nightmares and shadows of old.
~*~* Have you ever... ~*~*
...run into a wall?: Yes…several
...sleep walked?: Actually,
yes. I’ve scared a few neighbors quite
badly in my time.
...had your life threatened?: Many
times.
...talked in your sleep?: Many
times.
...what did you say?: Lots of
things…about the Ring and Mordor, but also about Bilbo and the Shire and elves
and other such happier things.
