How dare you say that about the character who I am, according to the BD personality test, most like, Diamond!

Well, if it's any consolation, I got the same answer for the personality test. The other two possibilities were Samwise and Pippin. I don't know if I should be offended or delighted. Or whether I should question the result.

Thanks for the quote, Lily. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] I thought I remembered the use of the word 'shrewd' and an slightly more complimentary wording, but there you go. Probably explains why I had trouble finding the quote.

But why do you have this annoyance over Barliman and not over Pippin? Because we saw teh transformation with Pippin. We saw what he could do, but with Barliman, we didn't really. But based on Gandalf's quote, I believe that Barliman really is shrewd.

You made some good point with good ol' Pip, Willie. I pasted in the above part because it does sum up my reasons for questioning the characterization of Barliman. I've had "Show Don't Tell, You Naughty Girl" hammered into my author-brain. Perhaps if Butterbur had been chosen to go on the Quest, we wouldn't have had this discussion. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
