Trick or Treat...

...Smell my feet! Give me something good to eat! Not too big, not too small, just the size of Montreal!
A Blessed Samhain and Happy Halloween to you all!

Eeeek! *hides* I'm not sure if I should laugh or tremble at the sight of that excellent costume! ^_^

I understand that Halloween and Trick-or-Treating is only recently gaining steam in many places in Europe, which is a shame, because it's always such fun as a kid. *G*

Happy Halloween!



The Eye

Sam had been certain that his costume would be the hit of the party. He had worked so very hard on it, acquiring just the right shades of angry red, stinging orange and jaundiced yellow. He was especially proud of how he'd used shards of mirror to give it a touch of glittering reflection. The only parts of himself not covered were his feet, but there was nothing that could be done about it, and he elected to neglect that tiny detail, reasoning that it'd give him the right balance of scary and silly while still allowing him to maintain his own balance.

But after even the oldest of the children had run at the sight of him, he began to rethink the wisdom of his choice; a shame, as he'd worked so hard on it, too.

He trudged back up to Bag End, leaving the party still in full swing, desolate in defeat. Yet as he approached, the door swung open, and a large lump of black sheeting with hastily-cut eyeholes stepped into his path.

"Ghosts aren't black, Mr. Frodo," Sam murmured sadly, the weight of his own costume become an unbearable burden.

"I'm not a ghost." The words were muffled, but tinged with amusement. Frodo reached for Sam, his arms rising as two cloaked lumps to catch hold of the edges of Sam's outfit, clumsily drawing him close. "I'm Barad-dûr, and as luck would have it, I'm in need of my very own Eye."

OMG, this is sooo cute!!! Found this via Estelanui's rec! I love that Frodo makes a costume and tries to cheer up Samwise - and what a great choice!

Thank you! :)

[caras_galadhon]

Aw, thanks! I'm thrilled you enjoyed it, and thank you for telling me! *G* (And thank you for the rec, too! That's very sweet. ^_^)

[frodosweetstuff]

I loved it and I thought more people had to see it!! :D

[aprilkat]

The way your mind works scares thrills fascinates me. And you wrote hobbits! What you won't do for your friends!

I hope that they will enact their own version of the destruction, with the Eye exploding and Barad-dur collapsing...

[elanorgardner]

This makes it even better. The Eye exploding and Barad-dur collapsing. *snorts*

[caras_galadhon]

*snerk* I'd go with scares, if I were you. ^_~

And you wrote hobbits! What you won't do for your friends!
Hee. I did, and I certainly will for people. Just not as much under my own power. ^_^

I hope that they will enact their own version of the destruction, with the Eye exploding and Barad-dur collapsing...
Bwahahahahah! I imagine they will. It seems only natural. *G*

Thanks so much! ♥

[caras_galadhon]
