Gollum...lembas?

[The Only Real Estel]

i think gollum was just a hypocandriac.......i think he only claimed the rope burned and freezed because he knew frodo was in control so he was just trying to make a nusence of himslef so theyd untie him so hed be able to the the precious and runaway without a leash they could grab

It states in the book that Frodo was convinced he really was in pain, & I doubt even Gollum could dupe Frodo with an act. Besides, like I said above, it also states that he avoided the touch of their elven cloaks. He had no motivation to pretend that those hurt him, so it must've been that they really did hurt/burn him.
