Summary
Fool of a Took seemed to be the enduring muttered mantra of the Fellowship, at least where Gandalf was concerned. It was entirely possible that the others thought it in their hearts– certainly not his fellow hobbits, but perhaps the Men that were sworn to follow Frodo into fire and flames, the grumbling dwarf, and the strange elf who spoke rarely and blinked even less. Pippin tried not to let it prick his heart: he knew this quest was something far beyond his understanding of the world, knew that truly realizing it would warp his brain in ways that could not be undone, knew that, after all, he was just a simple hobbit who had quite literally stumbled into saving the world. He could quell the pinpricks with those thoughts.
Before Moria, of course. Before knocking the helmet down the well. Before the balrog.
(In which Legolas has a bad time, Pippin has even worse time, and the fellowship finally gets around to talking about the balrog incident, though not before Legolas and Pippin run into trouble in the woods.)

Summary
“Ach, elf, you’re making it seem like he’s wearing some fancy unmentionables. As long as Frodo hasn’t been parading around in an indestructible negligee there is no shame in the truth. Out with it, you pointy-eared devil.”
“Bilbo said it belonged to an elven prince long ago,” Legolas sighed. He was certain he was flushed bright red as Gimli’s beard– he felt as if he were being set on fire from the inside.
“Yes, he did say that.” Frodo’s brows pressed together, now with confusion. “Am I supposed to know the names of all elven princes from ages past?”
“No,” Legolas said slowly. “But, I, ah, suppose on your journey you have met… one.”
(In which the Fellowship figures out, amongst other things, the origin of Frodo's mithril shirt.)
