Modern AU
Frodo gets diagnosed with autism . He's so happy and excited to finally have an explanation to why he's always felt different. To why he's always been treated different.
For most of he's life that explanation has always been his association and similarities with Bilbo.
Frodo: Bilbo! I have something to tell you, and it's important so you have to look me in the eyes.
Bilbo: not now Frodo I'm playing with my model trains.
Frodo: wait a second-
I know Frodo’s not really autistic coded (definitely not as much as Hiccup or Lilo), I just thought the dialog fit and was really funny.
Usually I read Bilbo and Frodo as queer solidarity (Bilbo is ace and Frodo is gay/demi).
But I think there's plenty of comedic potential and heartfelt moment potential from Bilbo being an undiagnosed autistic parent who decided to adopt Frodo based off vibes.
#lotr#frodo baggins#bilbo baggins#i love parental bilbo#i love frodo being slightly weird#but like#theres never really an explination for why they're weird#except that bilbo went on an adventure#50 years ago#is there another explanation?#lilo and stitch#hiccup haddock

if i had a nickel for every time the best friend duo that was the cornerstone of an entire trilogy got split apart at the end of the 3rd movie, ruining the entire trilogy for me, i'd only have 2 nickels, but it's strange that it's happened twice
#BUT FOR REAL THO#the entire lord of the rings i kept thinking that sam and frodo were gonna get together#but i had to keep reminding myself that they're movies from the early 2000s based on books written in the 1930s (i think the 30s?)#so gay couples weren't an option#and then they just go their separate ways and i feel like the movie made it clear that they don't see each other again#and then httyd oH BOY#i understand why toothless had to leave i do#kinda#but the fact that the movie made it seem like “yeah it's sad but hiccup and astrid got married so it's not really THAT sad” is what got me#like ok got it lesson learned: all your friends will eventually leave you but it's ok cause you'll have a romantic partner for life#if you don't have a romantic partner for life well then i guess you're just fucked#it's this alloromantic Thing that society does where they treat romantic relationships as better than friendships and i HATE it#i cried for so long after i saw that movie#and the friend who i saw the movie with and who i was talking to about how sad i was#was like “i'm never gonna ditch you”#and then guess what you guys#she just stopped talking to me one day#hasn't spoken to me since#my post#ALSO I JUST FOUND OUT YOU CAN EDIT TAGS AFTER YOU HIT ENTER#SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO RETYPE THE WHOLE THING IF YOU NOTICE A SPELLING MISTAKE AFTER YOU HIT ENTER

14th November 2023 Writings
14th
Excerpt from: Changes in the Archipelago
“Not yet?” Snotlout asked.
“We haven’t had a closer look yet,” Astrid responded.
“Then why are we wasting time?” Snotlout asked.
“We’re not,” Hiccup said. “I wanted to round up everyone.”
“Right…”
Soon all of them were flying out to the ship.
“If is from Miklagard, we can totally take it,” Snotlout declared.
“No, we can’t,” Fishlegs objected.
“It would be foolhardy.”
Words: 62
Excerpt from: Lady Me’s Quandry
“Not Britain, nor the 20th or 21st Centuries,” she said to the TARDIS as she set a random course.
The TARDIS gave a sound as if she agreed with her. She then set the ship in motion.
It didn’t take long for them to arrive somewhere. “Let’s see,” Lady Me murmured as she switched on the Scanner.
Indeed, it wasn’t Britain, nor the 20th or 21st Centuries. “Faroe Islands, 19th Century,” she mused. It wasn’t very far off at all. She suspected that if she tried again, it would still be somewhere in Western Europe in the later part of the Second Millennium. Therefore she emerged from the ship into the dimly lit streets of Torshavn. Nothing looked to be out of the ordinary. ‘But then at this time I was already hiding out on the Street.’
Something soon happened.
Words: 140
Excerpt from: Spider Quinn
“Right…” Quinn considered. She also considered just quitting the Fashion Club and telling Sandi to leave. What Daria had said in Freemont about them solving crime together flashed through her mind. ‘Not yet, give her a chance.’ She breathed deeply, and pulled down the turtleneck, showing her, along with Stacy and Tiffany, the zit.
“Oh, I see,” Sandi said.
“So, I had to hide it,” Quinn said.
“Of course,” Sandi said.
“Quinn, I'm so happy you're still one of us,” Stacy said.
“Gosh, Stacy, what did you think?” Quinn asked.
“Really,” Tiffany added.
“Quinn's right, Stacy. Just because she was acting completely weird and not confiding in her dearest, most loyal friends is no reason to decide she'd finally given up her sad charade and revealed herself as a two-faced, little…” Sandi trailed off as Quinn gave an intense glare.
‘How long?’ Quinn wondered, again.
“Meeting ended,” Sandi said.
“6:57. The shortest yet,” Stacy responded.
Unknown to Quinn and the others, Daria had overheard Stacy saying ‘I'm so happy you're still one of us,’ as she had walked by. Therefore she called Jane about her suspicion.
“Come on, not even aliens would give the planet to the Fashion Club. You're getting paranoid,” Jane responded.
“I'm not talking about aliens. But there's something out there. Something stupid.”
“You get rattled too easily,” Jane responded, then changed her tone. “By the way, can you come over here right now? I'm really scared.”
“I see. And to what do I owe this mood swing?” Daria asked.
“It's Trent's song. You gotta listen and tell me if it's getting more cheerful.”
“Now who's paranoid?”
“Come on, I'll order a pizza. And don’t tell your mother where you’re going, I don’t want her getting all motherly.”
“Right away.”
Words: 293
Excerpt from: In the House of Tom Bombadil
“We heard news of you, and heard that you were wandering. We guessed that you’d come ere long down to the water: all paths lead that way, down to Withywindle. Old grey Willow-man, he’s a mighty singer; and it’s hard for little folk to escape his cunning mazes. But Tom had an errand there, that he dared not hinder.” He then sang a song of his errand and of how he had met Goldberry long ago.
Tom had fallen silent, but Frodo couldn’t resist asking one more question. “Tell us, Master, about the Willow-man. What is he? I have never heard of him before.”
“No, don’t!” Merry and Pippin said together.
“That is right,” Tom said. “Now is the time for resting. Some things are ill to hear while the world is in shadow. Sleep until the morning light, rest on the pillow!”

How would the fellowship react to someone being drunk? Or tipsy
(Though Gimli is probably drunk as well lolll)
When you get drunk
Aragorn:
-He’s amused
-I can’t imagine him actually getting drunk with you
-He needs to keep a sober mind to watch out for you so you don’t do anything stupid
-Makes you drink lots of water
-And he knows all the tricks to cure hangovers
Legolas:
-Confused
-I absolutely love the drinking game scene; what a sweet and innocent little elf man he is
-He definitely finds it amusing once he gets what’s going on
-You know when a little kid tells you something and you don’t really understand so you smile and nod and are like “yeah that’s great” but are kinda hoping the kid leaves
-He does this; he isn’t really sure how to act around you when you are inebriated
Gimli:
-Offended you got drunk without him
-Although he’s adamant that he doesn’t get drunk; he holds his liquor so he says
-He will challenge you to a contest or at the very least will drink to catch up to you so he’s winning even if it’s just in his head
Boromir:
-A very bad influence
-Yes he wants to make sure you are ok; that’s why he’s keeping an eye on you don’t worry
-But he’s also cheering you on
-He is the guy who like massages the wrestlers and pumps them up for their match
-Except this match is a drinking game and he’s not gonna allow you to lose
Frodo:
-Definitely will give you a “shot” but it’s actually just water
-He’s going to get you to drink water anyway he can
-He’s there to right you if you trip; steer you away from the bar after a certain point; and to apologize to anyone you are talking to
-He’s a good chaperone
Sam:
-He’s not amused
-He prepares to take care of you in the morning
-He’s very worried you are going to get hurt
-And he’s right there if you get ill
-And yes he’s giving you a “dad talk” about being more responsible
Merry:
-He definitely engages in your constant blabbering
-And he will tease you about it in the morning
-He enjoys seeing you so relaxed
Pippin:
-He doesn’t even notice you are drunk because so is he
-He’s actively passing you more drinks
-He will tell you that you are “so drunk” while he is hiccuping and falling off the table you guys have been dancing on
Gandalf:
-He scoffs at you
-But it’s in an endearing way
-He spends a lot of time with hobbits; being around drunk people isn’t new to him
-I imagine he only lets himself get a bit tipsy
———————————————————————
None of these are based on any real experiences I’ve had as I’ve never been drunk (I am 21 but I don’t like the taste much and it just makes me really tired so I don’t ever have enough anyway to get drunk nor do I want to) or really been around anyone obviously drunk who wasn’t just chatting with me
Please drink responsibly :)
And if you don’t drink; keep an eye on your drunk friends please :)

An accurate list of the best movies I've ever seen
This list also includes reasons that are all too objective and nonsensical. Avoid asking too many questions. And share what you think in the comments!
Hercules
Hercules is probably my favourite Disney movie. And I also think that's where my interest in Greek mythology started. Hades is my favorite villain from this company and he's such a mood.
The Prince of Egypt
Oh dear you don't know how much I love this movie. I know every song by heart and was lucky enough to sing them with my choir. I'm a big fan of animation and despite how old is this movie, I think it remains one of the best ever produced. I cried more times over this movie than over all the others on this list combined.
Friends & Family
I only discovered this film this year but it quickly became one of my favorites. I have never laughed for so many consecutive minutes at a movie. I approached it because it's unusual to see a gay mob-themed movie, but I immediately fell in love with all the characters and the final scene remains one of the most comic I have ever seen.
Treasure Planet
I have a soft spot for animated films about great adventures and self-discovery. Jim has been my only animated crush for years, and his story has always resonated with something inside of me (maybe the desire for adventure and his recklessness, idk). Plus, of course, "'I'm Still Here" is one of the most beautiful soundtracks ever created.
Howl's Moving Castle
One of the first films I saw by Studio Ghibli and my absolute favourite. The love stories created by this Studio are always wonderful, and this one is no different. Plus I always saw myself in Sophie (especially about the crush on Howl) and, well, there's Calcifer, what more do you want?
Les Choristes
Another thing I love: movies about music. It may be that I've been playing an instrument for years and singing in choirs, but I've always cried watching kids rediscover a new side of themselves through music and songs. And these songs are composition's masterpieces. I still remember them all by heart even though French isn't my native language.
A Christmas Carol
I'm slightly obsessed with this story, with Charles Dickens and with Christmas. I was born on Christmas Eve so you can imagine how close this theme is to my heart. I have seen several versions of this story though, and for some reason, this one remains my favourite. It may be that it's different from other more colourful versions and really shows the darkness behind the original story, idk.
How to Train Your Dragon
I literally grew up with this saga: I was 8 years old at the first film, 12 at the second and 17 at the third. I watched Hiccup grow up with me as a friend and Toothless as a fellow adventurer. I'll forever be grateful to Dreamworks for creating the best-animated saga that cinema has ever seen.
The Three Musketeers
This movie is so random that it's perfect. I watched it again recently (after like 8 years) and realized that maybe my daddy issues come from this movie: Luke Evans, Orlando Bloom and the freaking Mads Mikkelsen together, seriously? I'm not surprised it was one of my favourite movies growing up.
A Monster in Paris
The love I have for this film is enormous. I could never get over the beauty of the songs in it. The characters are so well written and Francœur will always be in my top animated characters. It's too amazing to be real.
Rise of the Guardians
I could talk for hours about this film and have not even touched the tip of the iceberg. I have an insane obsession with all the characters, starting with and especially Jack, my top animated crush for years. It's all so perfect that I don't see how people never nominate it when it comes to top animated movies.
The Hobbit
Again, I have serious problems with films about fantasy adventures. I have always preferred The Hobbit saga to its sequel because the story has always fascinated me more. And the main character especially: for me Bilbo >>>> Frodo. And then there's Thorin and Luke Evans. You know, daddy issues.
Mune: Guardian of the Moon
Another French animated movie, another obsession, another adventure, another animated character in my top. This is an example of how to do good animation. There isn't a colour out of place. The settings are authentic, the characters are original, and the adventure they make gets me every time.
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them
I'm maybe a Muggle, but I prefer Fantastic Beasts to the Harry Potter saga. That's not to say it's better, mind you, but it reflects me more. We all know how we Hufflepuffs (and Ravenclaws) have no real representation in the HP movies, so to be able to have at least one prequel saga starring a Hufflepuff (in which I also find myself far too much) as the protagonist is wonderful. And I have an unhealthy urge to become a magizoologist.
The Greatest Showman
It's the movie I have watched the most of these. I know every song by heart and every line too. It always manages to be a roller coaster of emotions. And it has Hugh Jackman in it.
The Boy Foretold By The Stars
I'm a big supporter of the Philippine's film company. This is one movie is gentle, funny, and not based on the usual drama between Christianity and LGBT+ people (which is what I thought when reading the plot at first). Moreover, another underrated thing, the Philippines' music company here has thrown in masterpiece after masterpiece of songs, perfect for this movie.
Bros
This is my top comfort film in the last year. It's like watching a Hallmark movie but hotter, much more sincere and gay. Very gay. And the relationship between the two main characters is so cute and sweet. And funny.
Top Gun: Maverick
I love this saga but especially love this particular chapter. I love Maverick and his relationship with Rooster, and all the other characters are so well-written. And don't get me started on the story... I LOVE it. There isn't much else to say except that Cruise is a great actor (and a terrible person).
Glass Onion - Knives Out
I love my silly little gay detective. And I have a little passion for movies and mystery series. I found this saga's chapter more compelling than the first one, and the characters gripped me more. Also I fell in love with the setting. Oh and then there are Daniel Craig and Hugh Grant.

I got very strong night fury vibes from the cat🥰😩🥰🥰
me too! i think toothless is a slightly inauspicious name for a cat since she cannot retract hers at will, but she does hiccup after i give her milk… 🤔
so far we were thinking Frodo (on account of the literal sopping wet kitten vibes) or Apollo (because we watched a moon landing documentary tonight) or Artemis (because we watched a moon landing documentary tonight and this makes one think of the mars missions). i did my due diligence and suggested we call her Sushi but i was shot down fall of icarus style 😔
#some terrible suggestions i had to suffer through included ‘Bat’ (when she is. not one??) Shadow which is too on-the-nose and Needle#which yes arya stark i know but also. she’s only a bit stabby with those tiny tiny claws#one person was ‘we should know the gender 100% first’ okay and who do you live with?? 🤨#but yeah she is very small and very furious with me for making her go to bed so i see the night fury comparison#artemis is growing on me because you know we’ll end up just calling her Art. which yeah she is#anon#she’s solid ground to me rn i love this little beast

Why are you running a poll about gay disabled characters and allowing headcannons? Why not focus on canon lgbt characters with disabilities?
Sorry for taking so long to respond, but I wanted to wait until after Round One was posted. (Ignore the fact that it is several days after round 1 finished posting, I got busy). ((Extra update: lol this is such a late response I haven’t been doing like anything)). Also, sorry for such an extensive breakdown on an honest question, we just want to have this to refer to if we get more questions like this.
A quick breakdown: This post will have four parts: a practical explanation, an explanation more related to our blog set up, just a more philosophical explanation, and under the cut a breakdown of more headcannon like characters.
Practical Explanation:
So one of the reasons why we decided to allow more headcanon like characters is simply the logistics on defining what is more fanon or not is a pain. If you look down at the list you can see there’s an ambiguous section, and that’s because especially regarding sexuality/gender often times there is conflicting opinions/information from actors, producers, whatever. (Ex. Many of the Star Trek characters (their various propaganda has decent information.)) Additionally in the cases of especially Spock and to some extent Frodo them being read as queer has a really long history through the fandom, so to discount them from this feels a bit weird. There are also other cases where due to time period of the media specifically there aren’t gonna be specific terms for some disabilities or sexualities or genders. Overall, there is just a lot of gray areas, and to be like some noncanon stuff counts but others don’t is kinda a hard line to draw. (That being said we did reject a few characters for really not fitting, all characters in the showdown have a decent explanation for being here.)
Blog Set Up Explanation:
This is a little bit more rude (sorry). Honestly, from the get go we’ve established that noncanon characters would count, we didn’t get any complaints until we actually started the polls, and there’s not any way that they will be taken out at this point. If you don’t agree with who we let be in the showdown don’t vote for them.
Philosophical Explanation:
On a more philosophical basis, characters can still resonate with people as having similar stories/experiences to them even if they are not canonically LGBTQ or disabled. This is a place that is celebrating LGBTQ and disabled characters, and if a character’s experiences are important to you why shouldn’t they qualify?
Note about qualifications: characters with disabilities that get cured do count as disabled, also word of god counts as confirmation.
Having to sort this out was confusing as hell, apologies for any errors.
Characters that are not canonically disabled:
Sabran IX Berethnet (The Priory of the Orange Tree)
Robin Buckley (Stranger Things)
Rudyard Funn (Wooden Overcoats)
Characters that are really ambiguous/confusing:
Julian Bashir, Data, Elim Garak, Geordi La Forge (Star Trek)
Riku (Kingdom Hearts)
Kuruto Ryuki (AI: The Somnium Files- Nirvana Initiative)
Chu Sangwoo (Semantic Error)
Characters that are not canonically LGBTQ+:
Kaz Brekker (Six of Crows)
Saki Tenma (Project Sekai)
Kurogane (Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle)
Xiao Xingchen, Song Lan (The Untamed / Mo Dao Zu Shi)
Daan (Fear and Hunger)

Wayne Terrisborn (Mistborn)
Lapis Lazuli (Steven Universe)
Link (Legend of Zelda)

Blanket, Frodo and Sam.
Blanket
Rosie often complained that Sam could sleep like a log through their baby crying.
But somehow, this always woke him up.
A scream, hoarse and distant, pierced into his dream and jolted him out of sleep. The room was dark, and the window curtains fluttered lazily on the nighttime breeze, and there was a beautiful head of curly red hair weighing down his shoulder. All seemed well. No dangers to be seen. But still, his heartbeat began to thump in his ears, and his breath was quickening. Something was wrong. Something was very wrong.
Rosie stirred and breathed in deeply. “Sammy?” she mumbled into his shoulder, still not quite awake.
He brushed the red curls out of her eyes and kissed her forehead. “Sorry, darling,” he whispered. “Sorry. I’ll be back in just a moment.”
He slipped out of bed as quietly as he could and stumbled into the hall on groggy legs. The nightshirt didn’t do much to keep him warm in the chilly night air; even the floorboards felt cold under his feet.
There was a matchbox that they kept on the little shelf by the lantern, and after a bit of blind fumbling, he found and lit one match. The light of the little flame washed the hall in a faint red glow.
He’d just put the match to the wick when it happened again: the scream. Raw like the skin was being scraped off a body, thin like the wail of wraiths in the night, cold and sharp like claws sinking into his heart, and he grimaced.
“Come on, come on!” he whispered into the lantern. Finally, enough wax had melted around the short black stub of a wick that it finally took the flame, and the moment the candle was burning, Sam hastily shook the match out, shut the door of the lantern, and took off running.
He didn’t even stop to knock, but burst down the door. “Mister Frodo!”
Frodo didn’t answer. His hand was at his own neck, clawing at the marks where the thin chain had been. He tried to suck in a breath, but his fingernails had dug into his own throat, and he just choked and shuddered, mouth open, unable to breathe.
He’ll suffocate himself! The thought hit him like a bolt of thunder, and he flew to his master’s side. “Mister Frodo!” He took Frodo’s arm and gently tried to pry it loose. “Mister Frodo, don’t, you mustn’t—”
“Stay back!” Frodo cried hoarsely. In a sudden flail of his limbs, he clocked Sam across the temple with the side of his hand—making him stagger back a step—and then got his legs tangled in his own rumpled bed-sheets and fell flat onto the mattress. He scrambled away, kicking at the restraints on his legs, until his face was pressed against the headboard like it was a wall of his prison, and there he cowered, breathing heavily and shaking like a leaf. “No, no, no no, you can’t have me, you can’t have it, no, no!” And then he dissolved into tears.
Sam rubbed his aching head and winced. He wasn’t sure if Frodo was sleep-talking, or awake in a state of delirium, but either way he knew he must pull him out of it.
He set the lantern atop a stack of books on the cluttered desk, and—keeping his hands in front of him where they could be seen, and his voice low, even as his aching heart felt like it’d burst with the effort—he said, “There now. It’s all right. I’ve not come to hurt you. It’s me, it’s Sam. It's your Sam.”
The hiccuping sobs began to quiet. Maybe it was working.
“You aren't there any longer, Mister Frodo,” Sam went on. “You’re home. You’re in Bag End, you’re safe.”
That last one was a little desperate, admittedly. Could he really say “you’re safe”, and be telling the truth too, if the Black Land could sink its claws into Frodo’s mind like this right here in his own bedroom? But he had to keep going.
“I’m here, sir.”
Frodo’s breathing was beginning to slow. Sam could see his spine through the nightshirt, rising and falling with each breath, and slowly his tense shoulders lowered and relaxed. Finally, he turned his head—and the lantern light glinted off the tear tracks on his face.
“Sam?” came the faint voice.
He smiled, even though it pained him. “That’s right. It’s Sam.”
“Is it really you?” he asked weakly.
There was a pair of eyeglasses folded on the side-table, and Sam picked them up and gently pressed them into Frodo’s hand. “There now. You can see for yourself.”
Frodo’s thin fingers were shaking. The pinkie on the right hand seemed to flail awkwardly without the finger next to it. But he managed to unfold the glasses and put them on his nose, and he lifted his head and blinked in the faint firelight.
At the sight of Sam’s face, his whole posture seemed to collapse in relief, and he slumped against the headboard. “It is you. Oh, Sam…I thought I was there, I thought they’d found me again, I thought…” He bit the back of his hand and doubled over, shaking, but no sound came out, as if he was holding it back out of shame.
Sam climbed onto the bed beside him, wrapped Frodo’s thin shoulders in his arms, and held him close, just like he had in the upper room of that tower a year and a lifetime ago. “It’s all right, Mister Frodo. It was only a dream.”
Hiccuping again, Frodo took off his glasses and leaned his forehead on Sam’s shoulder. After a moment, the nightshirt began to feel wet with tears.
Sam put his hand to the back of that curly blonde head to keep him upright and whispered, “You’re all right.”
Sam had some time to think while he sat there. He was worried about his master. It had been over a year since their Quest had ended, and yet this illness never seemed to leave him. He wondered if Strider or Lord Elrond or any of the Elves would know how to cure him.
He wondered, darkly, if there even was a cure.
Every wound had healed, every scar had closed—there was barely even a mark around the back of his neck anymore, where the chain had sat that held the Ring, and the white line on his shoulder had become small and shallow last he saw—but the wound in his mind seemed ever open and bleeding, and Sam didn’t know how to help him.
Frodo had become quiet by then. His breathing was no longer erratic, but even and slow, and when Sam craned his head to look, he saw that Frodo’s eyes were closed as if in sleep.
Poor dear. He seemed exhausted—not only by terror, and not only by weeping, but by a heaviness that lay on his spirit and wouldn’t go away.
Sam lowered him gently back to the pillow. Frodo didn’t stir. Sam pressed one hand into his master’s shoulder, heavy and comforting, and with the other he took the glasses from his loose fingers and laid them in their place on the side-table.
He’d just slung his legs off the side of the bed when two thin hands suddenly gripped his arm.
“No!”
Sam turned, surprised. “What’s the matter?”
As if suddenly ashamed, Frodo released his arm and rolled over, arms curled around himself. “Sorry,” he murmured, “I’m sorry.”
“What is it, Mister Frodo?”
“No, no.” He was shaking again, and his voice seemed strained, as if he was fighting tears. “Just go on. I know Rose is waiting. I’m sorry. Don’t pay any mind to a foolish, selfish old hobbit.”
Now that made Sam angry. Whatever this sickness was had done quite enough before it started insulting his master. He squeezed Frodo’s shoulder and bent over him to whisper fiercely, “Now don’t you say cruel things about yourself like that.” After a moment, he added more gently, “What do you need?”
Frodo’s entire body was trembling. He seemed to have trouble getting the words out. Eventually, in a small voice, he asked tremulously, “Could you stay? I’m…I’m afraid, Sam. I’m so afraid…”
Warmth and pain flooded Sam’s chest in equal measure. “Of course I will,” he said.
“But Rose—” came the weak protest.
“Rosie will understand. Won’t you make room for me?”
After a pause, almost reluctantly, Frodo moved to one side of the bed, and Sam crawled onto the other. It took some work to detangle them, but finally Sam straightened out the bed-clothes and draped them over himself and Frodo; there was the thin sheet, of course, and the stuffed comforter over that, but on top of them all was the quilted blanket that Rosie had made for in secret for Frodo’s birthday, and when he saw it, Sam had to smile.
With everything arranged, and the blankets over his knees, Sam lifted the lantern off the desk and blew out the flame. Darkness enveloped the room. Faintly beside him, he heard Frodo bite back a small noise.
“It’s all right. It’s nothing but good, clean nighttime. Look,” said Sam, pointing out the window, “the moon is out. His whole face, smiling down on us from among the stars. And the crickets; can you hear them?”
There was a long pause. “I can hear the crickets,” said Frodo.
Sam shuffled under the covers and pulled them up to his chin. “There weren’t no crickets out there in the dry and the rocks, were there, Mister Frodo? They know better than to sing when there’s danger about, and there always was, out there. But they must think we’re safe now, or they wouldn’t be singing, if you follow.”
He found Frodo’s hand resting on the quilted blanket and held it securely, four fingers in his five. “And there’s my hand. That’s not so bad, now, is it?”
There was another long pause, but when Frodo spoke again, his voice was calmer. “No. No, it isn’t.”
Sam felt rather silly. He wasn’t sure all this talking was really helping; it just didn’t feel right to surrender the nighttime to silence.
But he soon felt much better about it, because Frodo moved forward and buried his head under Sam’s chin, holding tightly to his hand as if it was a tether to keep him from falling back into his dark dreams. Sam put his arm around him and held him close.
After a long moment, Frodo’s voice fluttered into the darkness again, near silent and quavering. “I’m glad you’re here, Sam.”
Sam sighed, long and low, and lowered his chin until his lips were meshed in tousled blonde curls. He pressed a kiss to the top of his head. “So am I.”

The creak of a door on its hinges pulled him out of his dream. He breathed in deeply and rolled his head on the pillow, but didn’t open his eyes right away. He could feel the warm touch of sunlight on his cheek, and hear the birds twittering outside, and feel the weight of a head of curly hair on his shoulder.
There was the sound of padded footsteps moving softly away. When he cracked an eye open, he was confused at the cluttered scenery for a moment until he realized where he was—Mr. Frodo’s room. There was the desk, and the stack of books, and the lantern, and the back of Rosie’s head as she moved to slip out the door, and the whole night came back to him in a flash.
Oh, pins and thistles! He’d promised to be back with her, before all this happened, and he wasn’t. Before she could make her escape, he found his voice—still hoarse with sleep—and croaked out, “Rosie.”
She turned, surprised, and held a finger to her lips. “Shh!” She hurried to his side of the bed and leaned over to whisper in his ear. “Another bad one?”
“Mm.” He nodded, a low, sad noise in his throat, as he took her hand.
“Oh.” She looked with gentle pity at Frodo’s slumbering head on Sam’s shoulder.
He was fast asleep, his chest rising and falling in steady rhythm, but occasionally he twitched or made a small, unhappy noise. Despite all Sam’s efforts, he couldn’t keep the dreams away, it would seem.
He frowned, turned his head to look up at Rosie, and squeezed her hand. “I’m sorry I didn’t come back,” he whispered.
She shook her head with a sad smile. “It’s all right,” she whispered back. “I knew I’d find you here.”
Sam sighed. He was reluctant to move. Frodo was finally getting some proper rest, and if he tried to slip away, it would probably jostle and wake him. But there was the whole day ahead, and meals to make, and work to do in the garden, and as much as he wanted to, he couldn’t stay here forever.
He was still deciding what to do when he felt Rosie’s fingers smooth his hair back from his forehead.
“Stay with him,” she whispered. “I’ll get breakfast started.”
He turned, unable to keep the surprise off his face, and then it melted into warmth and adoration. She always knew just what he was thinking, didn’t she? Dearest, wonderful Rose. He reached up to brush her cheek with his thumb, and she smiled, leaning into his touch. “Thank you, love.”
He lifted his chin. Taking the hint, she leaned down to meet him.
One long, sweet moment later, they parted. He was still gazing into her lovely hazel eyes as he pressed another two kisses to her soft knuckles. She held back a laugh and held her finger in front of her lips.
He grinned cheekily and winked. He could do far worse than that and still stay quiet, if he wanted, and she knew it full well.
After pretending to swat at his face—earning a low chuckle out of him—she pulled her knitted blanket over Frodo’s shoulder, turned, and tiptoed into the hall.
The door creaked shut behind her, and with that, Sam was left alone with the birdsong and his thoughts.
- - -
When Frodo finally woke up, it was to warm sunlight, and the sweet embracing aroma of fried eggs, bacon, toast, and oatmeal, and Sam almost dared to think he woke up smiling.

I can't stop thinking about a LotR-HTTYD crossover. It would be crazy but awesome.
Gandalf and Gothi would argue about who knows what (probably about whose staff is better and other random things)
Merry and Pippin would get in trouble with Ruffnut and Tuffnut
Boromir would probably make friends with Snotlout and he'd convince him to visit Gondor sometime
Gimli would challenge Astrid to an axe-throwing contest. He would also argue with Stoic about whose beard is better
Legolas and Sam would learn about all the different dragon types from Fishlegs and Valka
Aragorn would enjoy talking with Stoic and Valka
And I can just see Frodo and Aragorn and Hiccup getting along. They'd probably talk about their burdens as ring-bearer and king and chief. I have a feeling Toothless would love Frodo and all the hobbits and would lick them 'till their curly hair was dripping but they'd still be terrified of flying on a dragon because hobbits don't like heights
*suddenly comes up with a bunch of ideas for fics and drawings...*
