Happy ending fic, to a given value of 'happy' and 'ending'.

As in halfway done, and the happy is yet to come. I'm pretty sure this needs some considerable work, so here it is for anyone who might wish to poke at it and provide feedback. (I know the basic premise is possibly the worst fic idea since 'What if a normal girl from our world fell into Middle-earth?', but I wanted to see if I could write it well anyway, on the grounds that every idea can work if enough thought goes into it. (For a great example of 'Girl falls into Middle-earth' done well, by the way, everyone should read Don't Panic!.))

Post-Objects at Rest (Season 5), in canon for everything up to and including certain unfilmed Crusade scenes. PG. Some things which aren't clear may get clearer later on.

( Okay. So. What do you think so far? )
