And a sticky place where he'd dripped some jam or honey or something, but that didn't show very much against the black. "It looks all right. And my other tunic has a hole in it."
Ansell rolled his eyes. "If you're going to be with the Ringbearers this morning, maybe I should lend you one of mine." He shook his head and went on into the kitchen.
"Be with the Ringbearers?" Merry asked.
"Let us get rid of these buckets before they pull our arms out first," Pippin said, heading for the bedroom. "You're not the only one with questions."
