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.

Lake or ocean?: The sea…

~*~* 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.
