Shirebound!

Awwwww!I love your recounting of when Bilbo asking Frodo if he would like to be adopted and to live with Bilbo! *happy tears* I love it!

And also in the earlier chapter when Frodo is protecting Bilbo from Gollum! Heartbreaking!

"What love can do..." I flashed I guess forward to when Frodo is crawling to Mt. Doom and then Sam picks him up! All the feels! :-))

(((hugs)))

Awwww, this is gorgeous, my dear. One of the best stories I read EVER!

"Frodo let out a shout, then flung his arms around Bilbo’s neck and started to sob with joy. He felt loving arms tighten around him. He cried and cried, and Bilbo just held him. After so long, he felt loved and wanted and safe. After so long."

That's unbelievably beautiful and so lovely.
I love the world, the special feelings you've created.
I love it so much!

Thank you my friend!

Author Reply: Oh Julchen, you've highlighted one of my favorite lines in the whole story. One of the themes of "Quarantined" is Frodo finally having a sense of 'belonging' and 'home', after years of uncertainty.

Yes, a happy day for both of them, I'm certain.
