Biography:   Hi, I'm Citrine! You may or may not know me from FanFiction.net. I've been posting there for about a year, but I've been writing fanfic since before I knew it had a name. The first four stories I've submitted here are the stories I love best, the ones that turned out closest to the result I was looking for. I can't promise that they're all pure gold, but even brass can be beautiful when it's polished to a shine:)
bullet Worth Last Updated: 3/29/2011
This is why Frodo wanted to go alone into the Black Land. ( Another story MIA since forever ago. Short, AU, and dark. Tender-hearted reader, beware.)2011 MEFA Nominee(!!)

bullet New Roads and Secret Gates Last Updated: 3/25/2011

bullet Four Seasons Last Updated: 4/16/2007
Just a rambly little something in four parts. Four seasons in the life of Merry and Pippin from childhood to old age. Rated G for gen and a F for fluff. NOW the last two parts together: Autumn-Merry's lost and Pippin helps him find his way back home, and Winter-In Minas Tirith, an aged Merry has a bad cold and a bad dream.

bullet Before and After Last Updated: 10/8/2006
This is for Lindelea, who requested a fic with two scenes: Bilbo and Pippin in discussion, talking about trolls, at Rivendell, with Part 1 before the Fellowship leaves on the Quest, and Part 2 after the Fellowship gets back from the Quest. Part 2 got a tad bittersweet.

bullet Little Lad Lost Last Updated: 6/17/2006
Part five, conclusion: The hobbits of Bag End finally track down and retrieve their missing Took, and Lobelia is flabbergasted to discover the true identity of her 'foundling'. (Now complete, and starring pretty much everyone: Lobelia, my OC Posy Chubb-Baggins, Lotho, Pippin, Frodo, Pearl, Sam, May, Bell, Eglantine Took, Pimpernel, and Pervinca, with nonspeaking roles by Hamfast, Hamson, Halfred, Bilbo, Daisy, Marigold, and Merry. Whew!)

bullet A Practical Romance Last Updated: 3/24/2006
A short bit of Merry/Estella fluff and romance for Budgie: Merry recoups from a relapse into Shadow at Brandy Hall, Estella has a secret, and they squabble, and makeup over cakes and tea. Slightly PG for one mild swear word and some passionately Victorian smooching.
Rating: PG Reviews Status: Complete Chapters: 1 Published: 3/24/2006
bullet Always Last Updated: 11/28/2005
The next part of Always: Never Fading, a heaping helping of WeeMerry angst for Anso. Frodo leaves Buckland for good, and little Merry hides his heavy heart.
Rating: G Reviews Status: Complete Chapters: 2 Published: 10/26/2005
bullet Love Letters Last Updated: 8/27/2005
One-shot pre-Quest story: Bilbo ponders Frodo's adoption, and a careless gift to little Sam backfires badly. Gen and sweet, but may inspire urges to kick the Gaffer in the shins.

bullet Through Shadow Last Updated: 5/2/2004
For Hai Took: Merry and Pippin reunited in Ithilien after the Black Gate. Short story, mild humor, very light angst. Rated PG for the bit of naughty humor, just to be safe, but no slash intended.

bullet Seeing Stars Last Updated: 12/29/2003
Bilbo, young Frodo, early birthday gifts or the lack thereof, minor catastrophe and apple tart. Just a sweet, funny little bit of story, with a weensy bending of canon. (For Tathar, who gave me the plotbunny:)

Rating: PG-13 Reviews Status: Complete Chapters: 1 Published: 9/5/2003
bullet Falling Like Stars Last Updated: 9/9/2003
Silmarillion-based story, two Original Characters, with a few [in]famous characters mentioned, but no cameos. Elves, Nargothrond, a dash of purple prose, and more tragedy than you can shake a stick at. Rated PG-13 for violence and disturbing images in later chapters.
Rating: PG-13 Reviews Status: Complete Chapters: 8 Published: 9/7/2003
bullet All That Was Beautiful Last Updated: 9/7/2003
My take on Eowyn's first meeting with Grima. Rated G, but beware of general creepyness. [Story can also be found at FanFic.net and HASA.]
