bullet Ever Mine by Wayfarer Last Updated: 12/30/2005
Grima's private musings as he watches Eowyn, from the shadows as expected and tainted by a morbid fascination with a certain flower. Of course it's not in good taste. An attempt at villanelle. All blame for the odd rhyming choice exclusively directed to musie. RATING: PG-13 (for disturbing premise). GENRE: Poetry/Horror. (Canon-friendly. Constructive criticism most welcome.)

bullet Midwinter by Bodkin Last Updated: 12/27/2005
A sudden seasonal impulse. Featuring Galadriel, Melian, Haleth, Celebrian, Laerwen, an unnamed Hobbit and Arwen. Oh - and Aragorn pops his head into the courtyard. As does Celeborn. Part 2 contains some other suggested viewpoints: Orc, Elwing, Ent, Isildur's wife, Dwarf and Eowyn. I'm afraid that, like the Hobbit, the Orc, Ent and Dwarf are nameless. As is the wife of Isildur and mother of the line of kings and chieftains that led to Aragorn.

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.
