Summary: Sam buys Frodo a gift that is well beyond his means, and is rewarded by a chance to be the master for a day.

Comments: My, but this one's delightful. Turning the master/servant thing on its head is always fun, and this is one of the best, with a deliciously cheeky servant!Frodo, and a nice meddlesome Bilbo.

Comments: Mainly Merry/Pippin, and a bit AU since this is four years into the Fourth Age and Frodo's still around, but who's complaining about that?

Sick Day by Calligraphy

Title: Sick Day
Author: Calligraphy
Rating: NC-17
Summary: Post-Quest. Frodo has one of his sick days. Sam takes care.

Comments: AU in the sense that Sam seems to be living at Bag End after the Quest with no mention of Rosie, but that's all to the good. Some might be upset by Frodo's characterisation, but I love it: his loss of control and his sense of shame about it are perfectly believable, and Sam's unwavering devotion makes this one of the most wonderfully characterised fics I've ever read.
