I read the second one in the insta-drabble channel already, but I wanted to let you know how much I loved it.

I think, tossing the earth into the wind is not only a very Sam thing to do, and feels like the perfectly logical answer to that particular problem, but also it's just very in theme with the rest of the story and I love that.

So much of LotR is about trusting that things will turn out alright when you have little control over events.
