DISCLAIMER:
The story is al fictional parody - it's not true, nor is it approved of by the celebrities named in the stories. Authors write these fictitious stories about famous people for the same reason that Larry Flynt made fun of Jerry Falwell, because they can. The Supreme Court of the United States, the country where this site is located, has ruled that parodies involving famous people are perfectly and totally legal under the United States Constitution. The specific case law on this was decided in the case of "Hustler Magazine, Inc. et al. v. Jerry Falwell" in 1988. No harm is intended toward the celebrities featured in these stories, but they are public figures and in being so, they must accept that they are fair target for parodies by the public. We believe in the first amendment, and more broadly, in the basic principle of free speech and this section may push the boundaries of that principle, but the United States Supreme Court has approved of this type of material. We believe that the Supreme Court was correct in their decision.
This story contains scenes of male hobbits having fun with one another without a lass or lady in sight. If this is not your cup of tea, pass on!

Now it was night, cool and misty, and only the brighter stars looked down upon them. The three hobbits threaded their way up a country lane near Crickhollow. The grassy track leading to Frodo's new house was soft under their feet and gentle after a day of many miles underfoot.
"I say, Frodo," said Pippin brightly. "Do you suppose Merry has the mushrooms on to cook? Ah, I can almost taste them. Maggot's are the best. With butter, scrumptious. With gravy, delicious. With cream, divine."
"You ate enough at first supper, you must be tasting them still!" Sam said.
Pippin laughed and patted his belly. "Empty now. Walking is good for the appetite!"
"Hush, you two," Frodo said.
Sam hung his head. It was probably safe, but those black Men on their black horses meant there was dark business afoot. They had left one sinister follower on the far bank of the Brandywine, and there would not be another ferry tonight. But perhaps one of his fellows had come round the Brandywine Bridge. Sam sharpened his ears and quieted his tread. Even Pippin put off his giddiness.
They passed the last piece in silence, entering through a gate in the tall hedge that guarded the quiet house Frodo had chosen weeks ago. Frodo's furnishings (much diminished) and the best of Bag End's larder and cellar had preceded him in the capable hands of Merry Brandybuck and Fatty Bolger. As well as being a friend and a hobbit of many parts, Merry was a local and well-liked, and had helped Frodo pick the house.
Across the lawn, a cheery yellow light shone from the round windows. After a long day's ramble, Frodo was home.
Merry welcomed them in as Fatty Bolger bustled about in the kitchen. The scent of hot butter tickled their noses. Merry had been sent ahead on pony-back with a basket of mushrooms from Maggot's farm, with the happy intention of having them ready when Frodo's party arrived.
"Oi, there had better be mushrooms going in that butter!" Pippin called.
"I'll thank you to be polite about those mushrooms," Frodo scolded. "Or you shan't have any. Mrs. Maggot gave them to me personally."
"Oh, is it to be that way, then?" Pippin said. "See if you have any friends by the end of the week!"
Fatty raised his eyebrows and stuck his thumbs in the pocket of his cook's apron, looking to the master of the house.
Frodo laughed. "Tell this impudent Took he'll have his mushrooms," he told Fatty. "I see he won't be denied. But he shall be served last."
"That wounds to the quick, that does," Pippin said.
"Serves you right, it does," Sam said.
"Now, now," Merry said. "Off to the bath with the lot of you muddy travellers! The water's hot and we won't be warming it up again if you stand here gabbing."
Frodo, Pippin, and Sam followed Merry's lead to the bathroom, where not one but three tubs stood, ready for the steaming water that stood ready in great cans to fill them.
Merry made the table ready while Fatty cooked the delectable earthy flesh of the mushrooms from Frodo's gift-basket.
"Oh, these are the genuine article," Fatty said with a chuckle as the mushrooms sizzled gently in a pan. "Nothing like Longbottom Leaf for a pipe, or the Golden Perch for a beer..."
"Or Maggot's farm for mushrooms," Merry added. "How he does it is a deep mystery. Nothing equal in the Shire or Buckland."
"Pays for those fearsome dogs of his," Fatty said. "And keeps his family in butter and Sunday frocks." He breathed in. "Ah, but it's worth it. A whole basket? A princely gift."
"A bit of a homecoming gift, Frodo told me," Merry said. "Mrs. Maggot was pleased to see he was returning to his old haunts."
"Very pleased, I see," Fatty said. "Do you suppose Frodo wants to warm his new home in good style?"
Merry looked at the pan of sizzling, fragrant mushrooms. He breathed in and felt a warm glow. "Like our old custom at the end of a cross-country ramble?" he said. "It has been a while. I can't be sure, but it would be like him. And, you, me, and Pippin, well, we all..."
Fatty laughed. "I hope so. With mushrooms like these, more than just a hope."
Merry noticed a little break in the smooth slope of Fatty's white apron that hadn't been there before. "Maybe so," Merry said. "If not?"
"If not, then early to bed," Fatty said with a chuckle. "The sooner to rise."
Merry grinned.
The sounds of splashing and a voice raised in song came from the back of the house.
Merry frowned. "They're carrying on something fierce back there," he said. "Let me go look."
Sam emerged from the bathroom, a trifle damp but looking much refreshed, wrapped in a towel.
"What manner of alarming adventures are happening back there?" Merry asked.
"I don't rightly know," said Sam. "Mr. Frodo and Master Pippin are wrestling or something such. I stepped out here before they could splash me again."
Merry stepped into the bathroom and closed the door. The air was thick with moisture. And indeed, as Sam had said, Frodo and Pippin were in a tight clinch in one of the tubs. Most of the bathwater was, regrettably, upon the floor.
"Three!" Frodo said, touching Pippin's shoulders to the side of the tub. "Forfeits!"
"Oh, very well," Pippin said. "I suppose I can't be best at everything."
"You're young yet, and no Bullroarer." Frodo said.
Frodo released him and sat up in the tub. Pippin put his feet on the bottom and stood up. His stem was already stiffening, gaining another tithe of length and girth as it rose.
Frodo smiled. "Good for more than just winning pissing contests," he said.
Merry smiled, remembering his own acquaintanceship with Pippin's estimable shaft. Pippin did always win on distance. Though there had been some disputed contests, he had never been squarely beaten.
"I should hope I'm good for more than that," Pippin said. "Miss Marigold thought so this afternoon."
"So that's why she wanted your help in the barn," Frodo said.
Frodo opened his mouth and leaned forward, taking Pippin's swelling member in.
