Frodo carries his ring...and in turn, Samwise carries his Frodo.

Slashy? Why, of course!

Picture based on the Cirith Ungol scene from the (book) TTT. In the movie, the particular scene was moved to RotK and may be mangled or cut anyway--since RotK isn't out yet, I couldn't say.

Below is the text it was based on--spoilerish, if you plan on reading the books. Just warning you.


"...safe, if you lay close to me. I'd be dearly glad to see you have a sleep. I'd keep watch over you, and anyway, if you lay near, with my arm round you, no one could come pawing you without your Sam knowing it."

"Sleep!" said Frodo and sighed, as if out of a desert he had seen a mirage of cool green, "Yes, even here I could sleep."

"Sleep, then, master! Lay your head in my lap.

And so Gollum found them hours later, when he returned, crawling and creeping down the path out of the gloom ahead. Sam sat propped against the stone, his head dropping sideways and his breathing heavy. In his lap lay Frodo's head, drowned deep in sleep; upon his white forehead lay one of Sam's brown hands, and the other lay softly upon his master's breast. Peace was in both their faces.
