Gandalf, so good to see you back! *Manages a decorous but hearty hug*

I must perhaps apologize for or at least explain my intrusions here. *coughs a little in recognition of the intrusions* Once a certain person *looks at Child* threatened to bludgeon me into reading this when posted on the fanfic site, I decided that, in the best interests of myself as reader (and potentially as proofreader also, who knows), why, I should become a pestering voice reminding all the great writers here that they have an obligation to please me as well as themselves. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] *knowing nod at Pio and Mith* (Ellipses are limited to three or four dots, Pio.) Remember, the purpose of art is to delight and to instruct. Tolkien would be in absolute agreement about that.

*runs off to read some old stories about a moose and a squirrel, who had their problems also with people of an elder age*
