Summary
Frodo had always been rather quiet for a Brandybuck and would often stand on the edge of parties, only ever joining the fun when Sam or his cousins insisted on dragging him into it. But now he rarely left the hobbit hole under the hill. And she couldn’t remember the last time she heard him laugh or felt the warmth of one of his smiles.
And Rosie Cotton, who was born under a merry hour and scarcely ever frowned, suddenly looked back towards Frodo’s room and couldn’t help it. She was so worried about him.
(Or, Sam and Rosie take care of Frodo after his long journey.)

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.Series

For SamFro Summer Day 4: Regrowth/Rejuvenation
It was a little-known secret that hobbits had magic of their own. Though not as outright as elves or wizards with immortality and eyesight past the horizon, or fireworks conjured from nothing. They wielded magic in their own quiet way. In the way they could sense the plants around them, feeling them breathe and sway as if they were one and the same. In the way that almost anything could grow, no matter the conditions, as long as a hobbit had planted it.
or
After the quest Frodo can no longer feel his magic.

Summary
“It is strange, though,” says Frodo at length. It’s so quiet that Sam isn’t sure it was meant for him.
“What’s strange?” he asks after a few seconds have passed.
Frodo skims his fingers just below the surface of the water. “Being back here, I suppose,” he says, still in a soft, low tone. “I never thought….well, the last time we were here, it was beautiful, of course. But there was this dreadful business always looming over me. It never left my mind, not once. So I never got the chance to settle in and truly enjoy this place, not in the way Bilbo does. I had hoped, before, that if I did get the opportunity to come back things would be different. But it's…” he trails off. His hand hangs limply in the water. “It’s strange.”
The hobbits visit Rivendell once again on their homeward bound. Frodo tries to cope. Sam watches.

Summary
"Truthfully, I am sorry about a great number of things. I’m sorry you were made to come with me. I’m sorry I treated you so cruelly during the Quest. I know if I said all of this to you, you would say it was the Ring making me so cruel, like you’ve always told me. But not even your patience and good heart can stop me from apologizing. Everything I said, everything I did, when you were nothing but steadfast and loyal… A mere apology feels nowhere near enough for what you deserve, especially now that I’ll be breaking your heart one last time."
Before he sails West, Frodo writes Sam a letter.

Summary
He hadn't meant to drink so much, truly. But it had been one of those days-when the weight of normal life pressed down on him a little too hard, when the simple joys of planting and harvesting and engaging in the comforting presence of his children did nothing to quiet the restless ache inside his chest.
And he knew, deep down, that ache had a name.
Frodo.

Summary
The ship wherein Theseus and the youth of Athens returned from Crete had thirty oars, and was preserved by the Athenians down even to the time of Demetrius Phalereus, for they took away the old planks as they decayed, putting in new and strong timber in their places, insomuch that this ship became a standing example among the philosophers, for the logical question of things that grow; one side holding that the ship remained the same, and the other contending that it was not the same.

Summary
Frodo went to bed in Tirion and woke up in Bag-End some 110 years in the past. And as if this wasn't enough he did so in Bilbo's body. It all seemed like a quite ridiculous dream until he realized that, in fact, it wasn't. Frodo adapted. And then one day, Gandalf came along to send him on an adventure to reclaim the home of one Thorin Oakenshield. From then on things really started to go down the drain.

Summary
As Frodo lay in the quiet of Rivendell, the early morning light crept softly through the finely embroidered curtains, bathing the room in a gentle, golden glow. The warmth barely reached him, though, for he lay propped against a thick pile of pillows, his face pale and his eyes tired. He blinked as the light brushed over his closed lids, and a small smile tugged at his mouth as he saw who sat at his bedside.
Strider.
No—Aragorn.
The ranger had taken his usual place in the chair by the bed, leaning forward, hands clasped as though he'd fallen asleep mid-guard.
