[talesfromtheshire]

Welcome! Tales from the Shire was originally going to be a series of one-shots that I was going to write about hobbits. However, after doing all the family history, I realized I had SO MUCH to share that I didn’t feel like could be contained in a few one-shots. Therefore, I made this blog as a dedication to the history of hobbits, headcanons I developed from that history, and any “tales” my fellow hobbit lovers would like to share!

Disclaimers:

Everything that I provide is based off canonical information, but I have invented my own twists that I will pass off as hobbit lore. I’m not saying my way is the “only way”, but I will treat it as fact on this blog since that was it’s purpose. You don’t have to accept it. That’s the beauty of fandom, everyone has different headcanons. If you are curious about what part of my posts are strictly canon, feel free to send me a message and I would be happy to pass that information along!

Call for OCs!

One thing that I have noticed is there are several places where names and information about certain hobbits are lacking (i.e. Paladin and Esmeralda’s older sisters or Sadoc Brandybuck’s partner). If you want to submit your hobbit OC to be a part of the “Tales from the Shire”, please click this form. If your OC is accepted, you will get a Character Profile and a commissioned art piece done for your hobbit. Please make sure to read the form closely, especially with regards to use of your OC. 

AO3 Collection

And finally, since this idea began as a collection of one-shots, it only seems fair to make a public collection for viewing and submitting. You can find the collection link here, and please bear in mind the following criteria before you submit:

Your story/comic/art/creation must fit to the “fanon” of this blog.

Your story/comic/art/creation must take place in the Shire (but outside characters are more than welcome).

If you use an OC featured in this blog, please please credit the creator. It will be on the Character Profile so there shouldn’t be an excuse here.

There is no word count limit.

Tags are up to writer discretion. Readers be advised to check before you click.

All stories will be promoted on this blog so if you make your own posts, please tag me! Otherwise, I will share directly from AO3.

That’s it for now! If I need to, I’ll add to this post which will be the pinned post for this blog. Feel free to reach out to me if you have any other questions, comments, or concerns. Asks or DMs are both fine.

Peregrin took

This touched, according to Gandalf, Denethor, who accepted the hobbit's offer and made him one of the elite Guards of the Citadel. After meeting Denethor, Steward of Gondor, Pippin volunteered for service out of respect for Denethor's son Boromir, who had died trying to defend Merry and Pippin from the Orcs. To keep Pippin safe from Sauron's forces, Gandalf brought him to the city of Minas Tirith, separating him from his friends. Looking into the stone, he had a terrifying encounter with Sauron himself. Later, Pippin took it out of Gandalf's hands while the wizard slept, putting a rock in its place. Pippin picked up the palantír of Orthanc after Gríma Wormtongue threw it at them. Due to a special "Ent-draught" that Treebeard made him and Merry drink, Pippin and his cousin became the tallest Hobbits ever in history, at four and a half feet, surpassing Pippin's ancestor, Bullroarer Took, who was four feet and five inches tall. They roused the other Ents to fight against Saruman, and they attacked his stronghold of Isengard, partially crippling his power. Upon their escape, he and Merry befriended Treebeard, leader of the Ents. In the land of Rohan, Pippin and Merry managed to escape when the Orcs were attacked by a company of Rohirrim, the local people. During a skirmish amongst his captors, Pippin managed to cut his bonds using a sword held fast by a dead Uruk. While held captive by the Orcs, he purposefully dropped his elven brooch (a gift from Lórien) as a sign for Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli, who were in pursuit. Gandalf, however, supported his and Merry's claims of friendship and loyalty, and they were chosen as the last members of the Fellowship.Īfter remaining with the Fellowship until its breaking at Amon Hen, Pippin was captured along with Merry by an Orc-band, which included some of Saruman's Uruk-hai. At Rivendell, Elrond almost denied Pippin the chance to accompany Frodo, nearly deciding to send Pippin and Merry as messengers to the Shire. He was a worthy accomplice to Merry's plans, but showed his youth as well he was still a cheerful, if occasionally thoughtless Hobbit, and was first to miss the comforts of Hobbit life. Pippin was the only hobbit who had not yet reached his 'coming of age' when his fellow Hobbits set out from the Shire (being eight years younger than Merry, while Frodo himself was 50 years of age) and was therefore still in his 'tweens'. Literature Appearances The Lord of the Rings Upon handing over the Thainship to his son Faramir, he and Meriadoc rode together to Rohan and Gondor, and lived in Gondor until they died sometime after S.R. 1484. In the later drafts of this same section Tolkien omitted this statement, leaving the reader to envisage Pippin's appearance. IX, Sauron Defeated, through the eyes of Pippin Gamgee. Pippin's hair colour is mentioned as "almost golden" in The History of Middle-earth, vol. His best friend Meriadoc Brandybuck, more commonly known as Merry, was his cousin, son of Paladin's sister Esmeralda Brandybuck. He had three older sisters, Pearl Took, Pimpernel Took, and Pervinca Took. Peregrin was the only son of Paladin Took II and wife Eglantine Banks, and therefore inherited Paladin's title of Thain of the Shire upon his death in F.A. 13. Pippin is introduced as a Hobbit who plays a major role as one of the companions of Frodo Baggins, in his quest to destroy the One Ring. Tolkien's fantasy novel The Lord of the Rings. Peregrin Took, more commonly known as Pippin, is a fictional character from J.

[spectraling]

I know that we know next to nothing about Merry’s parents, but for some reason I am convinced that when he came back home after the war of the Ring Saradoc would be bawling his eyes out while holding back Esmeralda who would be this close to throwing hands with her own son

[to-be-frank-i-dont-care]

so um I wrote a sad thing about the hobbits

Incomprehensible

When Rose Gamgee looks at Sam, she sees something in his eyes that was never there before. The innocent expression that used to fill his gaze is lost now, replaced by fear, pain, regret. Sometimes when she speaks to him he doesn’t hear her for a moment, and when she reaches out and touches his arm to get his attention, he jumps and gasps and jerks away from her in terror. Sometimes she catches him staring into the distance with an empty look on his face, as if he is remembering something he never wants to think of again, some memory that haunts him in the night and drags him down into darkness. Sometimes she sees an unquenchable rage burning in his eyes, a fire that roars and consumes and tears at his soul until he is blinded by it, fighting an invisible foe, clutching a weapon that isn’t there. In those moments, Rosie feels afraid, afraid that her usually sweet and gentle husband has gone off the deep end, that there is no coming back. But then the moment passes, and Sam looks at her with anguish in his eyes, and he sits as Rosie rubs his back, and he sobs brokenly until he has no tears left to cry.

When Fredegar Bolger, Fatty no more, sees his once best friend Frodo, he is always concerned to find a haunted gaze resting in Frodo’s once peaceful blue eyes. Frodo sits quaking in his seat, as his nine fingers, scarred and torn, finger a chain that hangs around his neck, as he stares ahead with an empty look that chills whoever it falls upon to the bone. Frodo’s gaze whispers suffering, as he sits with Sam in the Green Dragon, and tries to be happy, but fails. Fredegar sees the tears glistening in Frodo’s eyes as he looks around him, as he sees hobbits laughing and talking and acting like normal, when Frodo knows he never can be normal again. Fredegar sees him, with pain etched on his face, tucking his four-fingered hand in the pocket of his jacket, and feeling for something that is no longer there, and he sees how Frodo is lost, trembling and staring with a hollow gaze, his eyes leading to a barren soul that has been crushed by the world. Sometimes he closes his eyes, and then Fredegar sees him weep, burdened by something no one but himself knows the actual weight of, longing to be free, to be lighthearted again, but knowing that is impossible.

When Pearl Took looks at her brother Pippin, she sometimes catches a sad look in his normally cheerful eyes, a remembrance of something that broke his heart. When she cranes her neck to look up at him, marveling at his astonishing height, she sometimes sees tears hiding behind his laughter, a broken heart shuddering deep inside his soul. No longer the innocent and carefree lad she used to know, Pippin has become something much greater than Pearl ever could have imagined, almost like a giant looming over her head, a giant who understands so much more of the world than anyone in the Shire ever had before. Sometimes Pearl shivers when she sees him sitting with Merry, drinking an ale, for Pippin laughs harshly, long and loud, to cover the emotion buried in the depths of his eyes, and he sloshes his ale around and speaks with fumbled words, but he is not fooling her. He is still perfectly rational when he does this, which she knows whenever she sees him holding back a sob, pressing his fist hard over his mouth or leaning against Merry, who is silent and understands what Pearl cannot.

When Esmeralda Brandybuck looks at her son, who in only a year has shot up well over the heads of anyone in the family, she sees a gravity resting in his hazel eyes, a sorrow that he cannot always hide. He does his best to cover the jagged brown scar on his forehead, but sometimes it shows through his messy hair, and then Esmeralda wonders, and wishes she could know what haunts him. She sees the way he draws his cloak tightly about him, the way he tucks his helm, inscribed with strange symbols, under his arm, as though he is recalling a painful memory, and she sees the way he strokes the muzzle of the white pony he brought home with him, talking to it in a broken voice and speaking strange names she cannot comprehend. Esmeralda knows he does not sleep at night, for often she will hear him, sobbing in his bedroom, or flailing in his bedsheets and crying out, and she wants to go to him and comfort him, but the fierceness, the withdrawal, she sees in his eyes gives her pause. She notices the way he holds his arm, wincing as though in great pain, as shivers wrack his body, and she wishes she knew how to help him, how to heal his hurts, but during those times Merry sits with Pippin, and they are quiet together, remembering.

And many hobbits notice the four of them, sitting off at a table together in the Green Dragon, not really drinking their ale, but just sitting and staring into the depths of their mugs. They notice the way Frodo breathes tensely sometimes, as though something is binding his chest, or suffocating him, the way he clutches the chain around his neck as if it is the one thing that can save him from whatever haunts him. They see the protectiveness of Sam, who lingers, touching Frodo’s arm, trying to bring him back, but they also notice the pain in Sam’s eyes, the emotion as he grips the handle of his mug, and remembers humans and dwarves and elves, and deep shadows and screams and eyes leering at him from the dark. They see the brashness of Pippin, who smiles and laughs, who raises his mug and drains it noisily, but who cannot use his bravado to cover the terror that rests in his eyes when he remembers the stench of bodies, and the smell of burning flesh, and the helplessness he felt when he found his cousin wandering senseless and wounded. And they see the way Merry holds his arm, cradling it as though it pains him, smiling but not laughing, his hair partially concealing a gash on his forehead that whispers tales of torment, as he remembers standing cold and weeping by the body of one whom he loved as a father, as he leans close to Pippin for security, the two relying on each other for strength.

They see the four hobbits, and they wonder, especially when their number drops to three. For then Sam becomes even sadder, staring at an empty chair where another should have sat, and Pippin laughs even louder, but clutches his mug with knuckles stained white from the intensity of his grip, and Merry wraps his arm in his cloak, and shivers, and smiles no more.

They see, and they wonder, and they do not understand.

For Frodo and Pippin. Being Merry’s cousins, how do you get along with Eowyn?

Frodo: Oh, Eowyn is an absolute delight. It’s an honor to have her as part of our family. She’s a sparkling conversationalist and an excellent cook. Our younger cousins in particular are very fond of her.

Pippin: You can say that again! It was a hoot to see the looks on Uncle Saradoc and Aunt Esmeralda’s faces when Merry brought a human home after having disappeared for a year!

Frodo: Pippin, we also disappeared for a year.

Pippin: Oh, that’s right. Another great thing about Eowyn being in the family is we have plenty of embarrassing Merry stories to tell her! I’d tell some to Sam about Frodo, but he already knows all of them.

Frodo: Pippin!
