Free to Good Home: Director's Cut: Index
I can't keep track of who owns what regarding Tolkien's works. Rest assured that I own none of it. This is a transformative work made for fun and I do not make any profit from sharing it. ATTENTION PLEASE! You are reading the Director's Cut, which is full of expandable author's notes. These author's notes contain UNMARKED SPOILERS. If you've never read this fic before, I strongly recommend reading the uncommented version!
These stories form a loosely connected narrative, but they can be read in any order. I have them listed here in roughly the chronological order in which they occur.
Arwen Draws A Portrait Of An Ugly Hobbit 6,754 words. Arwen Evenstar introduces herself to the royal ward.Author's NoteThis functions as both an intro to the AU for anyone who's jumping in fresh, and an excuse for me to play with Arwen like she was a doll.
Aragorn, the veterinarian 5,844 words. In addition to all the other things that kings have to do Aragorn must now try to figure out why Sméagol sounds like that.
Death's Head 10,482 words. Sméagol is rudely reminded that he killed his cousin and now he doesn't have a cousin anymore.Author's NoteThis one is just pure, utter murderer angst of the kind I was trying not to include in the original fic.
At Large- Minas Tirith's friendliest of stray cats 4,715 words. A bunch of Gondorian citizens involuntarily make friends with Sméagol.Author's NoteI had fun with the 'Sméagol bops around the city' chapter of SH so I wrote more of that.
