List of SamFro fics that I cannot get over
(I usually read fluffy stuffs and non-quest AUs.)
(Also, this list is still being updated - and I didn't say this in my original post because I never thought someone would actually reblog it lol - so if you ever stumble upon this list by any chance, please go to the original post on my blog, I may have updated some more fics there!)
For All the Weeks In Spring (In a Language That Needs No Words) by ohmygoshwhatascream
Each week, a flower appears on Frodo's bedside table.
He's sure there is some intent to them, but for the life of him, he cannot figure out what they are supposed to mean.
Crossing the Barrier by YamBits
Sam crosses the sea, and reunites with Frodo. After waiting to speak with him for so long, Sam finds that Frodo has lost the ability to speak their common language.
And I'll shiver like I used to by kathkin
He could taste it on his tongue, the salty tang of the sea, fresher and somehow saltier than the sea he knew. He could feel the sand, soft and light underfoot, warm from the sun. 'Sam,' the voice had said, saying his name so tenderly, so carefully, as if it were something precious, something to be treasured. 'Oh, Sam. Iāll wait for you.'
Samwise Mason is a junior member of the Stonemason's Guild of Haven City; he works hard, but doesn't stand out. He dreams, again and again, of a beach with white sand and a kiss goodbye. Samwise Mason is making a statue.
For a Mere Copper Penny by Illegible_Scribble
During the Free Fair, Sam stumbles across a booth attended by someone all together unexpected, offering, perhaps, the fulfillment of a dream.
Still Hot by TheGreatGame
In which Sam bakes a pie for Frodo and has to keep it safe as it cools.
our coming of age has come and gone by objectlesson
Always, Sam is worrying that he cares too much. Always, SamĀ knowsĀ that he cares too much. But he doesnāt knowĀ howĀ to treat Mister Frodo how he would treat any other master heĀ wasnātĀ in love with because he has no other master and he simplyĀ isĀ in love with Frodo. So, he is stuck forever-wondering if his seams show. If there is straw poking out. If the crows fear him, or are only pretending. āMy dear Sam,ā Frodo sighs, thumbing back and forth over the hewn pattern in his mug. It is a large earthenware alehorn Thorin made, and there are dwarfish runes carved into the sides. Sam has loved this mug since he was a child, and would trace the shapes with the tip of his fingers, wondering what mysterious things the runes held inside, what they meant. If they were love poems to Bilbo, which he chose to believe, at first because it felt scandalous, and later, because it gave him hope. If he has the option to choose the mug he brews tea for Frodo in, he still chooses this one. āYou take such very good care of me,ā Frodo murmurs.
āWell, yes, sir,ā Sam says, blushing. It is my job.ā
Over Endless Seas by VerchielMarch
A simple life, a happy life, idly by the sea. There are things to remember that escape Sam's grasp, memory washed from his mind like the water lapping at the shore.
Endurance Beyond Hope by Frayach
Fourteen years after Frodo's departure from the Havens, Merry is visited at Brandy Hall by Sam and his family and discovers a well-spring of both grief and hope that he and Frodo will be reuniting beyond the grey curtain of this world.
