As always, when I'm meant to be working on one thing, shiny distractors of a completely different kind always beg to be written. Here follows a drabble, a Gray Havens drabble from Sam's POV. No slash, though of course, if you're a F/Ser, you can certainly find it here if you like...:-)
The light gleaming from the phial slipped beyond reckoning, into a gray curtain. If Sam squinted hard enough, he imagined he could see it still, passing beyond the dusky horizon.
A gaping, hollow nothingness ached in his chest. The ghost of Frodo’s arms haunted his neck, as did the touch of lips on his ear as comforting words had been whispered. His words had not comforted, and only his last smile had broken his grieved fog.
“You cannot always be torn in two,” Frodo had whispered, but he had been wrong.
Sam was not torn in two, but simply torn.

Maybe you should do a drabble series? From all of the (living) Fellowship members finding out about Frood?
