Hey, avarerniliel, where'd you get your quote? I wanna read more of that!

Even for a Stoor, Smeagol was an odd fellow in his day. He was always sneaking and quite coniving and, clearly, very greedy. (Why else would he murder his beloved cousin if not for his own selfish desires?)

That's really creepy to think that, in his mind, he might have seen Frodo as a way to make up for Deagol's death. But, by the time everyone gets to the Cracks of Doom, it's pretty clear that he's given up that notion and just wants his Precious back. Still, I'm glad that Frodo was willing to forgive him in the end.
