Merry/Pippin fic

Now, in looking for Merry/Pippin fic, I've found quite a bit of gen stuff. And some of it is very good.

A Shortcut to Mushrooms has some truly marvelous fic - all of it rated G! I never read so much mildly-rated fic before I fell in love with Merry and Pip. It's insane.

On that site, I particularly love The Care and Feeding of Hobbits, where Boromir learns all about Hobbits and their ways during the Fellowship journey. The site is full of mass amounts of adorableness, like Tea and Small Talk, which features Gandalf and a five year old Pippin. The series I Always Know You (which is itself a continuation of Handkerchiefs and Mushroom Soup) is very touching in its portrayal of the Merry/Pippin relationship.

Thanks. I do enjoy slash, actually, most of the time, I've very big on the sex. Merry/Pippin has surprised in that I'm just as happy to read good friendship fic. But yes. Still love the slash.
