That is all that is going on in my world tonight.

Anyone wanna help me brainstorm why Samwise comes back to the Barge?

His whole first term on the Barge happened on one day in 3021, the year his first daughter was born, while he was coming home from accompanying Frodo to the Grey Havens.

September 30 3021, to be specific. Also coincidentally the last year of the Third Age.

In year 6 (Fourth Age), Sam, then a father of 4, is elected Mayor, and he's mayor for 49 years.

In year 21, he and his wife and his oldest daughter travel to Gondor for a year. I'm tempted to pull him from here? Invent a problem for him to solve so he has something to want a deal for. His wife is pregnant when they get to Gondor, and his daughter falls in love with a hobbit they met on the way home and gets married.

Or maybe some Big Issue arises in the Shire while he's mayor. Bad harvest, the mill catches fire, Old Man Willow steals some sheep, idk.

I don't have good ideas but my boy is played by Elijah Wood so I gotta cheer you on

I knoooow Sam's going to be so uncomfortable by this tall not-Frodo. wtf sir

Hanna is going to get Sam's autograph. he's gonna get a fucking book like they have for Disney with all these people he meets.

Despite introducing himself as Samwise Gamgee, the signature definitely is spelled Banazir Galbasi.

I just cannot be bothered to stick with Hobbitish.

that is absolutely fine. he will cherish it.

lastvoyages can I make up post-canon events for my guy?
