Title: Temptation

A nice little hole with a bit of garden of my own, was all I told Merry she'd offered me, and didn't mention it was Bag End's garden I saw my feet standing in – I planted those lilacs myself, and I know their smell.

I wonder if she offered him the same thing. He's loved that hole as much as Frodo ever has. I saw how he walked each room after the last party. If he hadn't decided to come along with us I expect he might have bought it himself.

But it wouldn't be home nohow. Not without Frodo.
