"I never hoped at all, Sam." "Not until that very day, and then suddenly I did. About noon it was, and I felt so glad that I began singing."

Frodo to Sam, I guess. Sometime after the destruction of the ring? I wonder what 'that very day' refers to.


Btw, I thought you forgot an 'e' in di-d, and was wondering why the person was so happy to have died.

Thumbs up correct quote !

but the speaker isn't Frodo.

If I tell you that the quote is from the epilogue, you'll perhaps guess who it is
(I have already used part of this conversation here)

Thumbs up

Indeed, it's Rosie, remembering the day Sam came back.

(Although I find the end of LotR perfect, I'm very fond of the epilogue too! So nice to read more about Sam's family.)

I'm soo sorry for letting you down for almost a month.

First I was quite occupied by modding werewolf, then my Prof decided to empty a bucket of work over my head.

Anyway, here's to the new one:

'----/ -------/, ----/ ---/ ---,
----/ ---------/, ---/ ----/ ---/ ------
----/ ---/ ---/ ----/ ---/ ---------/ -----
------/ -----/ ---/ ----/ (-) -----/! ----!
---/ --/ ---/ -----/! ------/ ---/ ---
-----/ ----/ -----------/ --/ ---
--/ --------/ ------/, ----/ ---/ -.'

Never mind! I suspected you had grown tired of this game, since it's usually just the two of us guessing here...

Let's start with my favourite, O !
