Shout-out

So like, I've always shied away from comment fic, especially in huge fandoms like Merlin where it seemed there were thousands of everything to go through with people I didn't know and it just seemed too overwhelming for me so I always got frustrated at their existence.

So apparently if it's on a slightly smaller scale (so far) and in a fandom I'm super-super-super familiar with, I can handle it and love it, too.

So lbilover linked to this:

It's an LOTR fic-a-thon in comments. You can request anything, and you can fulfill anyone's request.

For example, there's a ficlet here that reminds me of rubynye:
Butterfly Heart, about Rosie in the Scouring of the Shire.

Also, I wrote this one about Haleth, the boy who showed Aragorn his sword in the movie verse of Two Towers before Helm's Deep.:
Dawn

eta: I just wrote one about Elanor and Sam Gamgee post-quest! :))
Fade Away

lbilover wrote one about the little moment in the book in Moria where Pippin is afraid to jump over a chasm.
Keeping Dark at Bay

And best of all, baranduin fulfilled my request for a story about deep, platonic friendship between Frodo and Aragorn in the most perfect way!
Friendship

So if you have ever liked or do like to write LOTR fic, these are short and sweet, no pressure, no restrictions of pairing, genre, etc., as long as it takes place in Middle-earth!
