Title: "Virgin of Choice (Pts. 1-4)

Choice Line:  "Frodo… oh, I love you so much… “You’re… you’re beautiful…"

Pairing: Frodo/Sam, Frodo/OC, implied Frodo/Merry

Rating: NC-17

Warnings: EXTREME non-con, violence, BDSM

Genre: Non-con, graphic, graphic, GRAPHIC sexual situations, romance ('twixt Sam and Frodo, at least)

Synopsis: Written for a plotbunny devised within the site www.libraryofmoria.com . (Part two was put up, not the others as of late). Frodo becomes the object of a rather awful hobbit from Bree. After an attempt to kidnap Frodo is thwarted by Sam, he devises another plan and suceeds. Sam tries to piece things together to find him, along with Fatty, Merry and Pippin. What can happen happens, and Sam finds comfort in an unlikely source when it all comes out.


(Author's note: This DOES get quite squitchy. It took a lot out of me in writing it, very sad at some points, very traumatic. Read at your own risk! ;)

Title: "Needing Fresh Air" (UNFINISHED)

Choice Line: “Cris. Get the worm for me, won’t you?”

Pairing: Frodo/Sam, as friends

Rating: NC-17

Warnings: Non-con situations

Genre: Drama, angst

Synopsis: Frodo has moved into Hobbiton to live with Bilbo, discovering biases and outright cruelty that come from some fellow hobbits.

Author's Note: Having Lotho as a villain is TOO easy, and I don't mind writing it out (can you tell...?). Of course we all know his distaste towards Frodo always came from his sexually repressed desires towards him. Wouldn't you say?
Too, too easy.... ;)
