Summary: For this challenge, I literally went for the most underappreciated works I could find, by going to the Tolkien, J.R.R. -- Works and Related Fandoms category on Ao3, filtering for English works, filtering out WIPs, then sorting by kudos, and finally venturing to the 1744th page to work my way back from there, clicking on anything that looked interesting.
I found some forgotten gems to share with you!
