Rating: G Reviews Status: Complete Chapters: 1 Published: 5/7/2006
bullet Shelter Last Updated: 4/20/2006
Frodo, Sam, and Pippin recovered at Cormallen from late March to early April; surely the springtime weather in Ithilien wasn't blissfully perfect every day.

bullet The Three Towers Last Updated: 3/15/2006
A visit to the Tower of Ecthelion in Minas Tirith compels Frodo to return to the Tower of Cirith Ungol, accompanied by the King and the remaining members of the Fellowship. While Frodo struggles to recover lost or unclear memories, many of his companions find themselves making discoveries they did not expect. This story is based in book-verse, with bits of movie-verse interwoven at the author’s discretion. Angst/drama, but (being me) there's enough hobbity lightness to balance things out.
Rating: PG-13 Reviews Status: Complete Chapters: 11 Published: 12/29/2005

This is my AU imagining of the Fellowship's journey down the Anduin. The story occurs during the same ten days as in FOTR, but with a few side-adventures and revelations along the way. A bit of FrodoHealing, a bit of PippinHealing, some tricksy Saruman, Fellowship bonding, riddles, teasing, danger, and a deeper look into how the Ring slowly went to work on the Steward's noble son.
Rating: PG Reviews Status: Complete Chapters: 13 Published: 10/5/2005
bullet A Letter from Home Last Updated: 12/10/2005
Here's a teensy tiny Yule ficlet! This is from my "Quarantined" universe, and occurs after the events in "Force of Nature" -- and assumes that Aragorn has now met Bilbo, young Frodo, Merry, Sam, and wee Pip. Love and fluff!
Rating: G Reviews Status: Complete Chapters: 1 Published: 12/2/2005
bullet Making It Right Last Updated: 12/3/2005
The hobbits are dismayed to learn that something very important had been omitted from Aragorn and Arwen's wedding, so they work feverishly to remedy the situation. A short, hobbity ficlet set in Minas Tirith.

bullet Force of Nature Last Updated: 9/24/2005
A “Quarantined” sequel: Aragorn finds that he needs assistance from Frodo, young Merry, and Scamp to locate a Ranger lost in the Old Forest.

Nine people (two Men, one Dwarf, one wizard, one Elf, and four hobbits) have crash landed on a seemingly deserted -- and possibly mysterious -- island. The Fellowship of the Ring meet, bond, and face danger together in a brand-new setting. This story was inspired by Season One of “Lost”, but no knowledge of the show is required.
Rating: G Reviews Status: Complete Chapters: 13 Published: 12/26/2004
bullet Spellbound Last Updated: 4/7/2005
What are the Barrow-wights? Why did the wight tell Frodo that they were “waiting” for him? What did it plan for the hobbits, and why? How were the hobbits lured up to the Great Barrow? What explains why Frodo was treated differently than the other hobbits, awakened sooner, and found the strength to resist the call of the Ring in such a desperate situation? This story is my own look at the events on the Barrow-downs from the FOTR chapter ‘The Fog on the Barrow-downs’.

bullet And the Stars Will Sing Your Name Last Updated: 10/28/2004
A short scene between Frodo and Elrond after the hobbits return to Rivendell. Frodo wonders if, as the years pass, any of their deeds will be remembered... but Elrond has his own reasons for knowing that nothing will be forgotten. Glorfindel has a cameo role.

bullet Unlikely Comfort Last Updated: 8/17/2003
Between Moria and Lórien, Legolas and Aragorn help Frodo through the shock of Gandalf's death. The healing doesn't stop there, however, as before the group reaches Lórien, bonding and healing have taken place throughout the Fellowship, in quite unexpected ways. (AU, in that the distance between Moria and Lórien is slightly greater than in canon, and, as the story begins, neither Frodo nor Sam were hurt in Moria; therefore, the mithril shirt is still a secret.)
