"That Fate Them Bore" is a story cycle that begins with Frodo's decision
to leave the Shire and will eventually end in Rivendell. So far, only

an enormous change.

Romance Partners: m/f
Frodo's birthday has come again, for the fifth time since Bilbo went
away. Frodo is happy as Master of Bag End, enjoying his inheritance. Or
he should be happy. He has every reason to be happy. But he's restless,
discontented - and an autumn camping trip with his cousins seems like
the perfect cure. But not with Sam! Sam has been a little too helpful -
Frodo is feeling smothered, as well as restless, and the young gardener
is left at home, much to his dismay.
When Trouble Came (109): Lily
URL: http://www.storiesofarda.com/chapterlistview.asp?SID=5837

worse.

Keep Him Secret, Keep Him Safe (643): shirebound
URL: http://storiesofarda.com/chapterlistview.asp?SID=5877
General, Reason for Rating: Rated mild-PG for partial nudity due to
illness of character.
Romance Partners: N/A
Aragorn falls ill at Cormallen, which Éomer feels must be kept a
secret. But there is more to this illness than meets the eye, as Frodo

Frodo's birthday has come again, for the fifth time since Bilbo went
away. Frodo is happy as Master of Bag End, enjoying his inheritance. Or
he should be happy. He has every reason to be happy. But he's restless,
discontented - and an autumn camping trip with his cousins seems like
the perfect cure. But not with Sam! Sam has been a little too helpful -
Frodo is feeling smothered, as well as restless, and the young gardener
is left at home, much to his dismay.
