Guys I just realized something
I’m reading Return of the King, and have just reached the chapter called “The Tower of Cirith Ungol,” in which Sam makes to rescue his master.
Something notable about this is that Sam has put on the Ring not once, but twice so far - and both times, his experience has been markedly different than Frodo’s.
Firstly, his vision is impaired. Everything he sees is somewhat obscured by a dark fog. It’s unclear whether this is an effect of the Ring entering Mordor, or if that’s just what it does to him specifically; after all, the Ring acts differently for each Wearer.
It’s the second effect that’s really interesting. You see, for some reason, the Ring improves his hearing. In both instances, he can hear orc-chatter from afar, as well as tumbling rocks and the foaming of Shelob. But what’s really wild about this is that the same never happens to Frodo.
Because the Ring reflects the Will and Strengths of the User, I can only assume this means one thing.
The One Ring empowers Samwise Gamgee’s eavesdropping.
this is so good

[ID: A digital drawing of Frodo and Sam from Lord of the Rings. The upper section shows Frodo leaning over Sam, holding a short-sword and crying. Frodo is a hobbit with dark hair, pale skin and gray eyes. He is wearing a green cape, a white shirt, a brown vest and a golden ring around his neck. “I’ll cut your throat. That’ll shut you up” is written at the bottom of this section. In the background there is a wall and a ruined city in front of the mountains.
The lower section shows Sam lying on the floor crying, with the tip of a short-sword on his throat. Sam is a hobbit with blonde hair, light skin and green eyes. He is wearing a green cape, a white shirt and a beige vest. “You’re beautiful, Mr. Frodo” is written at the bottom of this section. End ID]

No, indeed it is hardly possible to separate you even when he is summoned to a secret council and you are not.

'Frodo! Mr. Frodo, my dear!' cried Sam, tears almost blinding him. 'It's Sam, I've come!'
