So Frodo isn’t participating but I did make an open for him!I’d really appreciate if someone would be willing to help the little guy out as he’s arrived in pretty bad shape? You know how awful looking he is at the end of the third film? He’s nearing that point so he’s much weaker physically than before !!! I’d appreciate it! He’ll be looking for his dog, Goldberry, as well!

CA INTRO.

He has grown thin. Thinner than he had ever been when he was here last, and the lines in his cheeks speak of a hobbit who has lost all weight he had gained during his last stay in the City. Shoulders hunched through the now tattered green cloak he wore constantly, the rest of what can be seen of his skin is caked in dust, bruises and scrapes.

Perhaps what is worst is his eyes, purple, bruise-like lines beneath a gaze haunted, heavier than last before, almost disoriented — confused. Last he was past Minas Morgul, where the Shadow had nearly tempted him to walk towards the bridge, the force so painful it yanked his entire neck. His empty stomach had growled yet his body did not recognize the hunger. His throat was dry, lips caked in dust.

“……Here — again. ” It seems almost forced out of the Hobbit’s lips, before he takes a few stumbling steps —

— and falls down. As sure as the weight of the Ring would make him crumple, so too does the sudden absence of it yet again make him lose his footing. The ugly, red, welt-like indentions from the chain are afresh, as if he had never been here at all.

For a moment he lies there, blinking back dust and darkness, not used to seeing the light of the sun once again.

“….a dream…” It’s mumbled into the stone, the Ringbearer struggling to even grapple the street with cut little fingers. “Or rather it feels as if I am sleeping again….”

A strained series of breaths,
a sagging of the shoulders
as he feels the weight of it
pressing down –

..and he quickly goes to whatever bush
he can find at the coming intruder.
All the while his fingers tremble
towards the golden band,
on his finger by now if not
for an iron will.

( Someone was coming. )

‘Yess, wretched we are, precious,’ he whined. 'Misery misery! Hobbits won’t kill us, nice hobbits.’

’No, we won’t,’ said Frodo. ‘But we won’t let you go, either. You’re full of wickedness and mischief, Gollum. You will have to come with us, that’s all, while we keep an eye on you. But you must help us, if you can. One good turn deserves another.’

‘No!’ said Frodo; but he did not run away. His knees gave, and he fell on the ground. Nothing happened, and there was no sound. Trembling he looked up, in time to see a tall dark figure like a shadow against the stars. It leaned over him. He thought there were two eyes, very cold though lit with a pale light that seemed to come from some remote distance. Then a grip stronger and colder than iron seized him. The icy touch froze his bones, and he remembered no more.
