    Summary

    Frodo comes back from the war, and finds love and healing with Sam's sweet younger sister.

    PREVIEW:
    “Someone else… better for me? But Mr. Frodo… There isn’t anyone better…"

    He gave her hands a final squeeze, and drew away, trailing his fingers over hers for one last, poignant second.

    “No, there are many who are better, I think,” he said, and looked at his nails – short, and bitten down to the quick. “Somebody healthy, for one.” He looked up – back at her. “Someone you can live a long, full life with. You’re a vibrant young woman, Mari, but you have to understand – if you hitch your wagon to my star, you’re laying yourself down in a coffin.”

    He gave a short, jagged sigh, and looked away.

    Of note:
    1. I've learned a lot about writing in recent times, and this fic is undergoing another stylistic overhaul. But this shouldn't get in the way of reading!
    2. This is a TWO PART SERIES, each about 100K words, which is why you will see designations of Book I and Book II. I considered splitting it up, but decided against it.

    Summary

    Blood spurts, Joffrey laughs, and Sansa faints away.

    She wakes up on... grass?

    [Crossover AU, where Joffrey chops Ned Stark's head off and Sansa wakes in Middle Earth to find Boromir on his way to the Council of Elrond. It's not an easy path ahead for either of them, but like hell is Sansa going to let her father out of her sight again, especially when he volunteers to take a demonic ring to the darkest part of the land.]
