Title: Starlight
Pairing: None (although if you're an F/S fan, I'm sure you can see something here, lol)
Rating: G




Sam did not let himself look at the Elvish starlight, how it set the walls of Mr. Frodo’s walls a’glitter like jewels.

Later, if his master pulled through, he could look. Now his place was next to Mr. Frodo and no place else.

I’ll not let the starlight steal him away. I’ll sit right here next to him as long as it takes.

Of course the poison that wormed deep down toward Frodo’s heart was the real danger.

So he thought.

Nearly two years later, he remembered, even as Frodo sailed, bathed in the silver light of an Elvish star.

Oh, how poignant to think that Sam felt the starlight stole his master away. May they both enjoy the stars for many years together in the West.

Thank you!

I imagine they did get to enjoy the stars fully later when Sam came!

Beautiful! How could Sam have known then what that Elvish light really meant to them both. *hugs them both* Thanks for writing this, dear!

It was really fun to get inspired to write this. I just relaxed and pictured Sam and he told the rest! :) *hugs*

Poor Sam, so faithful, but he had to let Frodo go to save him.

Sam's silver light sailed away. :-(

But one day they will share the same stars again.

Lovely little fic.

Thank you! (I just finished yours!)

I agree. Perhaps I need to write a sequel in which they watch the stars together in the West!

And one day he will have all the time he likes to look at Elvish starlight- his reward for his faithfulness to Frodo. Beautiful, Claudia!

Thank you! Yes, there perhaps ought to be a sequel to this, FAR in the future where they can both enjoy the starlight! :)

Oh, so Sad. Sam could make this vow, and his determination and faithfulness is lovely, but in the end he couldn't keep it. :(
(Of course, I just need to keep remembering that the goodbye wasn't forever.)
