Previously, on Throw Away...



John was the picture of misery. He was reclining on the embankment under the shade of a tree, hands covering his eyes, Gimli's axes strewn about on the grass around him.

Ian's heart went out to the poor man. What he needed was a distraction. Ian wandered over and sat down on the cool grass next to him.

"I can practically smell the hormones in the air," Ian said, without preamble.

John snorted.

"If they were women, I'd say the entire Fellowship was cycling together," he replied.

"Yes," chuckled Ian, pretending to read his script. Scripts were the best camouflage. Sitting chatting, he and John might be a temptation for any number of people - two old pros with great stories to share. A real target on a boring afternoon.

Add a script, and they became two members of the Fellowship discussing draft 149 of the script, and everyone on set was likely to avoid them like the plague, with the possible exception of Viggo or Philippa.

"A couple of days ago the hobbits were discussing the size of Elijah's cock in comparison to Viggo's. You've heard the rumor Merry and Pip are spreading?"

John sighed. "I've heard several variations of that rumor. Plus Elijah says it was an act. And Sean says it was totally innocent. But neither of them explains exactly what Sean was doing there in the first place."

"Mmmmmmm," murmured Ian to page 23 of his script revisions. "I must say I'd have loved to see it, even if it wasn't the real thing. They certainly convinced our little peeping hobbits..."

John chuckled and peered at Ian through a crack in his fingers.

"You haven't asked me what's been going on in our trailer," he said smugly.

"No, I haven't! And what exactly has been going on over there? Viggo's been fading out every time he gets remotely near Bean, which has been essentially all day. Orlando can hardly walk properly, and keeps tossing his Elven locks and waving his pretty little Elven ass every time either of them looks in his direction. And Bean is surveying practically the entire Fellowship as if they were his own private harem, the smug bastard."

John gave him a smug grin that quickly turned to a pained grimace.
"This damned makeup," he muttered. But Ian noticed he couldn't stop himself from grinning again.

"Our Elf got his comeuppance for his participation in the 'Viggo's Tiny Cock' rumor, in a way that didn't sound like it was going to discourage him at all..."

"Quit beating around the bush, infuriating dwarf, and just out with it already!"

"I really shouldn't..."

"Oh, you know you should," Ian growled threateningly.

John chuckled.

"Well, in a nutshell: Beanie tops just like you knew Major Sharpe would; Orli makes the most delicious sounds and is very, very flexible; and when he's got a hard-on, Viggo loses track of which language he's speaking. Gods, who would have thought Danish could sound that sexy?"

"Ah. And our Strider switches, too. But living with Elves all that time, what would you expect?"

Ian was speechless. He groped for words, spluttering.

"Details, man! Details, or I swear..."

"Gentlemen?!" The shout came from the set. Pete was waving to them wildly. John sprang to his feet with surprising lightness and agility for a man so recently wallowing in allergic agony.

"Duty calls," he laughed, and went trotting down the hill, swinging his axes in glorious arcs.




It was amazing how easy everything became, once you decided to do something, Elijah thought.

And he had decided two things.

One. He wasn't kidding about Orlando. That crush had been coming on for some time. He hadn't really thought about it seriously before, but all things considered, why the hell not?

Two. He absolutely was going to fuck Sean. Maybe Sean was out of his league for a long-term, serious, relationship kind of thing. But Sean had offered, and he was interested, and once again, why the hell not?

The main problem, he thought on his way to Feet, was that in many ways Orlando was going to be a lot more difficult for him than Sean.

Orli was all about the love. He was all over everybody, all the time. Earnest, interested, affectionate. Elijah could definitely imagine him falling in bed with Sean and Vig. But he could just as easily have believed Bills and Dom. Or Liv and Cate. Hmmmm. Perhaps not Ian and John.

So how to crack Orlando?




Ian decided that there was no creature more devastating than Frodo in Rivendell. Elijah glowed. The fabric of his costume was soft and touchable. His ringlets fell so that when you looked at him, you couldn't avoid being drawn to look into those shocking eyes, made dreamy and strangely clear by the lighting. Every person he met seemed to fall under his spell. The Ringbearer, in all his glory, not yet crushed by his burden. A testament to the strength and beauty of the Shire.

Elijah had come on the set much later in the morning than the other principals. Now Ian was watching him mix in with Beanie and Viggo and Orlando and he knew that Elijah was up to something. He stopped to chat with Viggo, and when he stepped away, Viggo's eyes followed him. The boy made his way to join the other hobbits and Orlando, who were sharing some joke or other, and his added laughter drew Beanie's eye. Orlando hung off him. Ian suddenly saw a fourth in the morning's triangle, and it made him very uneasy.

"It seems to me that as the elders in this little escapade, we really ought to step in and try to prevent disaster." Ian muttered, taking the stool next to John. They were just pausing for a quick reset of the lights, then back to it. No time even to step away.

"Oh, why?" John said, with a snicker. Orli was flirting outrageously with Viggo and watching Sean out of the corner of his eye the entire time. How Pete was missing it, Ian would never know. But it was working for the scene. Who knew that a bunch of guys in pseudo-period dress sitting around talking about Mount Doom could smolder quite so hot?

"Because a misadventure like this is the death of professionalism on a set? Because we both know Beanie's playing mind games with Elijah and our Angel's much too young to handle this kind of thing? Oh, any number of reasons…" Ian was annoyed. He had always thought of John as the voice of sanity. But instead he just seemed to be sitting back and enjoying the show.

"What makes you think I'm not the one playing games with him?"

Ian's heart nearly stopped. He slowly turned his head to find Elijah standing immediately behind him, preternaturally large eyes made huge by the perfect curls framing his face.

John, the twat, just snickered into his beard.

"Elijah…" Ian began. Then he turned to John in horror. "He does know, doesn't he?!"

"Of course, I know," said Elijah, all breezy assurance and irritation.

"Elijah, you cannot mean to get tangled up with them?!" Ian exclaimed.

"Why not?"

"Sean and Viggo are both old enough to be your father. Between them they have been married five times. Can you imagine what that means? Have you even had five girlfriends?"

"Why don't you just ask 'have I even had sex five times?'" Elijah replied, clearly affronted.

"Well, what about Samwise, then? Don't tell me you don't recognize his infatuation with you. How can you go chasing some sort of kinky on-set fling? Imagine his crushed little face, when he hears the rumors."

"If you want my advice, I'd say you could take them all and run the show. And what about my crushed little face?"

Oh. God.

There was Samwise, standing on the other side of John.

"How the hell do you people keep doing that to me?!" Ian exclaimed.

John laughed outright.

"Really hobbits, don't land Gandalf in the hospital with a heart attack. Think of the shooting schedule!"

"You can't possibly be advising Elijah to go after all three of them at once?" Ian just stared at the Sean in horror.

Sean shrugged and turned to his fellow hobbit.

"I was coming over to say that Bills is trying to get everyone together to go out to that new dance club tonight. I say, dress to kill and flaunt it. I even know exactly what you should wear."

John nodded sagely. "Make them beg," he pronounced, like Zeus from on high.

Elijah just smiled to himself.

Ian collapsed back onto his stool. He felt completely out of his depth.



Next part coming soon. Meanwhile, all my stories, in order, from one page. Also, my fiction recommendations.

Bwah! I am snorting and wheezing like JRD at a Fellowship pub crawl!

Orli was all about the love.... Hmmmm. Perhaps not Ian and John.

Actually, I could even see that. But for the sake of some of your more delicate readers, you can pretend I didn't say that. ;-)

Where can I sign up for Beanie's private harem? *looks around for registration sheet*

LMAO!

Shhhh. Don't scare the other fangirls! :) I'll let you know when I find the clipboard...

I am so... fucking... dying. i dunno whether to laugh till i pass out or just cum right here, right now.

If they were women, I'd say the entire Fellowship was cycling together," he replied. ok, maybe i'm not supposed to say this, but john's part in this chapter is outrageously on. it's about time someone gave him something to do besides be grumpy and allergic. and the fact that he's savvy to all this innuendo if not even moreso than the rest of them... !!

Orlando can hardly walk properly, and keeps tossing his Elven locks and waving his pretty little Elven ass every time either of them looks in his direction. And Bean is surveying practically the entire Fellowship as if they were his own private harem... omg! i know i shouldn't be so snotty about it, but this one one of the things that i love to see orlando-the-elf suffering with: sore ass.

...when he's got a hard-on, Viggo loses track of which language he's speaking...And our Strider switches, too. But living with Elves all that time, what would you expect?" if you feed her viggo, she will cum.

and your little john moments: "I really shouldn't..."

"Oh, you know you should," Ian growled threateningly.

John chuckled.


and

John, the twat, just snickered into his beard.


"Why don't you just ask 'have I even had sex five times?'" Elijah replied, clearly affronted. oh, 'lij! he makes such a good little virgin, doesn't he, for all he's way too smart for it. oh yes. i love your 'lijah. he can take on the big guys and hold his own, oh yesssss preciousssss!

If you want my advice, I'd say you could take them all and run the show. And what about my crushed little face?" another country heard from. go you!

mother of god. you rule! your sense of timing, humor, intrigue... there are few that can hold a candle to that.

oh yeah, gotta ask. reply offline if you'd rather. married five times? unless this is a fictional part of the story, i'm totally missing something. i count four. exene, deb/mel/abi... who's 5?

5 times.

[identity profile] brainofck.livejournal.com 2005-07-02 11:00 am (UTC)(link)
Dammit. I went and checked the Internet Movie Database (www.imdb.com). This is what happens when you depend upon fan fic for your research and don't confirm things yourself.

"Dated Lola Schnabel, daughter of painter and film director Julian Schnabel, for nearly two years. Broke up in 2003."

So he and Lola were never married?! Dammit.

Well, it's Mommy time now. I'll fix it later... :D

Thanks!

You are the best fangirl EVER! :) *kisses you all over your face*

Re: Thanks!

[identity profile] helena-s-renn.livejournal.com 2005-07-02 12:41 pm (UTC)(link)
pfft ! yeah, i know its blatant fangirling. i can't seem to help in, in your case. it just screams for it.

WOOHOOO!!!

[identity profile] baby-sheigh.livejournal.com 2005-07-02 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
It's up. Ian is killing me, all a-twitter as a jealous queen and John baiting him is definitely entertaining. Jeez, all four of them on the make, or striving for something else, with an audience who doesn't always know to stay in their seats. The club should be an ....enlightening endeavor.

Re: WOOHOOO!!!

[identity profile] brainofck.livejournal.com 2005-07-02 11:02 am (UTC)(link)
So pleased you like them. I'm having a huge amount of fun doing something interesting with JRD. :)

[identity profile] idlesloth.livejournal.com 2005-07-02 01:53 pm (UTC)(link)
bit scared to leave any feedback after Helena's top-quality (and highly deserved) fangirling, but this is so damned good that it would be remiss of me to re-lurk. This is just excellent - I never thought I would live to see the day that anything with hobbits and IM/JRD involved would light up my day so much (apart from Childeproof's hobbits now I come to think of it) - what can I say? MORE MORE!!

Thank you so much

[identity profile] muck-a-luck.livejournal.com 2005-07-02 04:52 pm (UTC)(link)
:) I am a total feedback whore, as I suspect all of us fan fic writers are at heart. So your de-lurk is much appreciated! And I am *so* pleased to share the hobbit love, as well as get JRD some good press! And am glad that I people seem to feel I'm doing some justice to IM. :p

I just reread the whole thing, so hopefully I can get MORE MORE back to you relatively soon. :)

Um...

Oops. I'm just no good at this multiple personality thing...

[identity profile] amise.livejournal.com 2005-07-02 03:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Ian: I love how he goes from gossipy to sort-of-protective when he finds out that Elijah is interested in the VigOrliBean action. It's really quite adorable. I never thought I'd say that about Ian.

John: Go John! So, he saw much more in the trailer than he let on. Who knew he'd be such a tease. And an insigator.

Beanie: The image of HaremMaster!Sean surveying all he sees like he's trying to decide who to do next is so freaking hot. I *love* Sean in alpha-mode.

Elijah: Go Elijah! I have total faith in his ability to take them all.

Thanks!

:) I love your take on all of them!

I'm snickering so hard at this I can barely read... oh, I *love* innocent!Elijah turning the tables on the Old Men. *very* well done... but of course now I'm wondering what's going to happen next... I see a train wreck in the making here. *grin*

[identity profile] brainofck.livejournal.com 2005-07-02 07:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Excellent! I see Elijah less as "innocent," more as "inexperienced." The kid's been in Hollywood for 13-14 years at this time, right? Can't be *that* innocent... :p

[identity profile] stormatdusk.livejournal.com 2005-07-02 06:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Totally cracks me up that John hung out and watched in the trailer for a while. The small way you let us know that really adds a lot to his character. More please andpleaseletElijahhaveallthreeofthem!

[identity profile] brainofck.livejournal.com 2005-07-02 07:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Of course he did! *snickers* And am carefully weighing your request re: Elijah. *snickers more* Glad you liked it!

[identity profile] stormatdusk.livejournal.com 2005-07-08 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
Hey, look over there! Elijah is running down the street in his skivvies!

*quietly presses toes on scale while you're distracted*

This was an awesome chapter. I loved all of it. If I tried to pick out my favorite lines, I would probably requote the whole thing. You are great. You are doing such a wonderful job with everyone. I praise you for you greatness. Thank you forever and ever! I simply couldn't stop laughing, my throat is sore now from it, but don't worry, I can definately deal with that for this sort of entertainment. I can't wait for more.

Wheee! I got here via a link from [livejournal.com profile] lotrips_finderss and am thrilled to find this series. Hope you write some more in it, though it's pretty darmn good as is!

(I'm all about rare pairs, so Bean/Elijah and Ian/John is fine with me.)

Oh dear, just wasted another night and will have to drag myself to the office tomorrow. Although, wasted isn't really the right word at all :D
Hoping for a next part of this, please please please!!! Thanks for this, enormous fun, as per usual.

[identity profile] moody-girl.livejournal.com 2006-09-01 11:15 am (UTC)(link)
Oh my god! that was brilliant! I am sooo glad you rec'd it to me. :) I do hope you finish it because it's got just the right mix of hawtness and funny. That was great!

*sniff* I just found this and it's great fun! I don't usually like "whole cast is gay" stories, but this treats it just right, as fun rather than serious. But I see it's unfinished from last year, rather disappointing coitus interruptus, and I'm curious if you plan to get back to it.

[identity profile] msbeata.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 10:45 am (UTC)(link)
So, um, is this a WIP or is there more somewhere?

I don't even know how I got sucked into this, I don't read LOTR or RPS and yet here I am wanting more.

You're good. Very, very good.

[identity profile] brainofck.livejournal.com 2008-09-27 06:27 pm (UTC)(link)
I was feeling guilty about this just last night. But alas, it may be an eternal WIP. :( I don't know if you read any other comments, but this is titled Throw Away, because it was supposed to be a one-shot throw away cliche-fic about guys getting together because they accidentally fell asleep in the same bed and humped in the dark. It grew into a WIP... Glad you liked it though! :)
