Ten Ways to Tell if You Are Reading a Dreamflower Fic
1. Somehow, someway, all four of the main hobbits *will* get mentioned, no matter *who* it’s actually supposed to be about, and whether they are even supposed to be in the story.
2. Lots of asterisks.
3. Detailed descriptions of food.
4. Detailed descriptions of dances.
5. Detailed descriptions of music.
6. Embarrassing childhood stories.
7. Overuse of the words “regard” “alacrity” and “tear-ravaged”.
8. The healers use pendulums.
9. Frodo calls Merry “sprout”.
10. Pippin is playing the bagpipes.
