new hobbit fic, chapter 1/11, Loss
May. 15th, 2007 12:42 pmHere is the first chapter of new hobbit fic, very angsty but not as dark as Not Yourself. There is comfort to go along with the hurt in this one. :) Suggested titles are welcome!
Rating: PG for this chapter and most of the fic, eventually R.
Main characters: Frodo and Rosie. (This chapter also features Gandalf, Aragorn, Merry, Pippin, and Marigold.)
Genre: Angst, post-quest Shire AU. Multiple pairings of male and female hobbits.
Warnings: Severe angst, character death.
More detailed pairings/warnings/summary/spoilers for those who don't want to be surprised.
Acknowledgements: Thanks to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
danachan for long-term support as well as beta reading. Characters and settings from J.R.R. Tolkien (fanfic, not for profit, etc.). Further inspiration taken from many other fanfic writers, including rubynye, monkeycrackmary, and danachan for their hobbit lasses, and nickeyb, who wrote Sacrifice, the AU that first gave me the idea for this one.
Note for those wary of reading WIPs: This fic is not finished yet, but I'm pretty confident that it will be by the end of the summer (or, who knows, maybe a lot sooner). I have written almost 40,000 words of it so far and expect it to end up with around 50,000. I've written at least part of all eleven chapters, so I shouldn't get stuck trying to figure out how it ends. I might not always update regularly but there aren't any real cliffhangers.
People who don't get sick of Frodo-at-Cormallen fics are encouraged to read (the first half of) this chapter even if they don't think they'll read a long fic that's mostly about hobbits in the Shire.
