I've read that story several times, and even recced it on crack_van when the Pimpin' Twin (boniblithe) and I did YnM in July. *G* I thought that was a good premise for an AU, so I'm glad to hear you thought it was, as well.
I recently fell into the fandom, probably about three weeks ago. Since it's all about the pretty for me, I steer clear of the hobbits and tend to focus on various permutations of Karl Urban, Sean Bean, Orlando Bloom, and Viggo Mortensen.
The vampfic is admittedly not great literature, and I have some quibbles with it, but it's very enjoyable braincandy. Go here (http://www.fadedink.com/writing/index2.html), look up stories by series, then hunt for "Claimed." It's the first in the series.
