Story Summary: It's Yule and poor Merry is missing his true love. He has
a bit too much to drink and Pippin is left to cope with a very drunken
cousin! This is the full and frighteningly unabridged story of what went

which can be found at
http://talechallenge24.livejournal.com/3480.html#cutid1. Merry is 31 and
Pippin is 23. The wonderful song that appears at the end was of course
written by the enormously talented Llinos and I thank her very much!
