Dedicated to
caitri. :)

In a way this whole week is dedicated to Cait, who made sure I saw the Hobbit/Goblin post that started it all, and also sent me this discussion:

Which reminded me of the offhand comment (in The Hobbit IIRC) that a Took once married a "fairy wife", so I drew this. For all her demureness she still runs about the woods on her tiny bald feet, singing like a lark.

Remember Willow Wode's story that got into it a little?
And I am to this day not sure if for Tolkien, fairy=elf, or if there was another whole category of Speaking Peoples that were fairies! That were more hobbit sized!
What is your opinion?
