Description Frodo carries his ring...and in turn, Samwise carries his Frodo.

Slashy? Why, of course!

Picture based on the Cirith Ungol scene from the (book) TTT. In the movie, the particular scene was moved to RotK and may be mangled or cut anyway--since RotK isn't out yet, I couldn't say.

Below is the text it was based on--spoilerish, if you plan on reading the books. Just warning you.


"...safe, if you lay close to me. I'd be dearly glad to see you have a sleep. I'd keep watch over you, and anyway, if you lay near, with my arm round you, no one could come pawing you without your Sam knowing it."

"Sleep!" said Frodo and sighed, as if out of a desert he had seen a mirage of cool green, "Yes, even here I could sleep."

"Sleep, then, master! Lay your head in my lap.

And so Gollum found them hours later, when he returned, crawling and creeping down the path out of the gloom ahead. Sam sat propped against the stone, his head dropping sideways and his breathing heavy. In his lap lay Frodo's head, drowned deep in sleep; upon his white forehead lay one of Sam's brown hands, and the other lay softly upon his master's breast. Peace was in both their faces. (TTT, the Stairs of Cirith Ungol)



Thumbnails are evil, as always. Humor me, view the full thingy...

I the title, clever. Frodo's feet ...foot... seem ...seems... too unaturally hairy to me, though ... a bunch of hairless skin, and then ... BOOM, a great big patch of bearhair.

I'm rather heartbroken that so many people slash Middle Earth, though ... I have no problem with slash, in fact, sometimes I quite enjoy it ... but Middle Earth was not made for slash. And heartbroken that some people think that there's only one kind of love, and if you love or have deep affection for someone of your own gender you must be 'queer', a word I also hate ...

Eek! Sorry, thinking aloud. Nice picture, nice poses.

*sighs* it is adorable, and I remember that scene quite well. I even remember the haunting moment when gollum came to them, laying his hand on frodo's leg, and for once in a long time, became a tired, sad old hobbit once more. J.R.R. Tolkien was a genius when it came to the tenderness that comes to people under prolonged and hopeless contitions...I wonder what he would have to say on the supposed yaoiness of his characters? *ponders this as I throw Lemons at the yaoifans to keep them occupied*

I personally believe Tolkien would have a fit if he knew about some of the Fanfiction people write...but that doesn't stop me from enjoying the thought of Sam and Frodo with a love that is more romantic than platonic. The bond they have in the novel is so loving that it could be interpreted that way, I think...even if that wasn't Tolkien's original intention.

*chuckles* So true, so true...and yes, I suppose the intense bond between Frodo and Samwise could be interpreted as yaoimeat, but...*sighs* I prefer not to pry into the psyche of poor "gay" Samwize...Heck, what I would give to have a friend like him, even if he was the same sex as me! I hope to the gods of motion pictures they don't mess up the cirith ungol scenes...if those are butchered or erased, the producers are going to have to far more to worry about than the fangirls...Tolkien Nerds are a nasty crowd to piss off.

W0rd. I know I won't be a happy moviegoer if that happens.

well i've already got this pic as a +fav but i wanted to leave a comment too seeing as it's so lovely!

it's one of my fave bits from LOTR (and yes, if peter jackson cuts it out then he will have many angry fangirls to deal with!!) and you've illustrated it beautifully!

keep up the good work!

*sniffles* All the Frodo/Sam sequences from TTT and RotK make me wishy-washy, and then you had to go and draw something lovely based on one of them. I think it's lovely.

Pardon as I start drooling...I'm liking this alot! Don'tcha just love yaoi/slashy stuff? Oh yeah...but on to your pretty picure, love the colors, you seem to have a knack for picking just the right colors for everything, it's amazing! I can't tell you how long I sometimes have to agonize over what colors to use, then I came across stuff like yours and just...yeah... *envys* and yes, the sequence in the book is just paints pervish pics in ones mind, which I think you captured quite nicely...it's so sweet and cute! Love it a lot, you're amazing!

I like that... I like that alot. Uhhhh... yes. You know I just like the idea of carrying each other around, and erm, hugging sadness away ... and on that topic look at my "A friend in need" series. Yes, and I like it, it's cute.
Why of course.

Aww! *luff* That was a great scene in the book. ^^ And the movie guys can't be TOO anal. They HAVE to put this in, or they'll be set upon by rabid fans in the streets.
And this reminds me of something I recently said to my friend Kim- 'Sometimes, when you read things in the Lord of the Rings books, you just have to think "Mmmm... slash."'

waaah! Daisuki! I love Sam's expression .. looks totally just in love and adoration with Frodo and is so cute. Sam's hair also looks really good for some reason. What did you do with it to make it so niftycool? @.@;
Frodo looks so tired and sad and stuff .. *sigh* Poor Frodo. At least, yes, he has his Sam.

I love the name of this. Very cute. ^_^;;;;;; *squeal*
