I love Maglor, but why is he only able to express emotions while staring at the sea?
Maglor: I have committed kinslaying. How can I ever forgive the Doriathrim for making me do this?
Maglor: My family name is ruined.
Maglor, facing away: I can't find the ocean!
Maglor: I have improved the family name.
Maglor, running into the ocean: WE'RE GOING TO WAR WITH MORGOTH!
Maglor, coming out of the ocean: WE LOST THE WAR WITH MORGOTH!
Maglor: I wish I could stop kinslaying without being doomed to Everlasting Darkness.
Maglor, running into the ocean: WE'RE GOING TO WAR WITH MORGOTH AGAIN!
Maglor: Eönwë has refused to give us the Silmarils!
Maglor, dragging Elrond&Elros: Maedhros I found us a child!

To everyone who has tagged me in something recently: Thank you so much, I've seen it and I promise I will get to it! I just moved into my own apartment, so things have been busy and a little chaotic, but as soon as I'm settled in I'll be on it!
I also have something planned for Epistolary Week, but that too might have to wait a few more days - I hope I can get at least a chapter or two posted this week

Sleeping Beauty
Tumblr media
Characters: Nerdanel, Míriel
Relationship: Míriel/Nerdanel
Warnings: none
Tumblr media
Nerdanel makes her way through the thicket, undaunted by the thorny brambles, the rosebushes and evergreen shrubs, deeper and deeper into the heart of the forest, where, legends say, the Queen of the Noldor sleeps.
Before long her clothes are torn, her arms bleeding, her russet hair coming undone from its braids, but she perseveres, until she at last comes to a clearing, a canopy bed in its centre, and on it a silver-haired lady, more beautiful than any woman Nerdanel has seen.
She falls to her knees beside her, and the Queen of the Noldor awakes beneath her kiss.

Through the Cold and Dark
Tumblr media
Characters: Rôg, OCs
Warnings: Captivity, Angband
Tumblr media
It is a long, hard walk up the tunnels and mines, dark and cold and fearful, but they cannot stop. Hope, flickering, terrifying hope, forces their broken bodies onward, through the depths of Angband and up, up, towards the stars, towards the sun, towards the wind rustling in the trees.
On and on they walk. Rôg knows these mines well, and he leads the others through the narrow tunnels. At times he thinks he cannot go on, the pain and weariness so all-encompassing that a world without seems impossible, but he does not stop until the stars shine above him.
Tumblr media
The stars shine above him, and it takes Rôg’s breath away. How long has it been since he last saw the sky?
The air is clear and sweet, the wind blows through his hair, and Rôg has never felt more alive. All pain and fear is gone; he has seen the stars again, and that alone is worth all the suffering he endured to escape, and all that may follow.
But he is free – he is free, and as his companions behind him laugh and weep, Rôg looks at the sky and swears that he will never again suffer thraldom.

Fern Leaves
Tumblr media
Characters: Elrond, Gil-galad
Relationship: Elrond/Gil-galad
Warnings: none
Tumblr media
They kiss behind a fan of green fern leaves.
Gil-galad knows his illicit romance with his herald cannot be known; there would be too many questions, expectations of marriage and heirs, and he is King – his duty is to his people. He can allow himself no distraction, show no weakness, and this – this is a weakness. Love means leverage, if it is known.
No, no one can know.
So Elrond grows fern to hide their kisses, weaves a veil of song and spells around their love, and Gil-galad knows himself enchanted as he returns the kiss, lost in their eyes.

I got curious and decided to find out who gets the most fairs in my writing...
The Results:
Celegorm (8)
Elrond (6)
Gil-galad, Maeglin (both 5)
Erestor (4)
Idril (3)
Dior, Aredhel, Annatar (all 2)
Nerdanel, Tar-Míriel, Tuor, Fëanor, Sons of Fëanor (all 1)
Non-characters described as fair:
Stars (2)
Lindon, weather, world, Woods of Oromë (all 1)
So, out of the above options, Idril wins, and overall Celegorm gets the most fairs from me!
Though the winner of my heart, the fairest of them all, will forever be Elrond ♡
I've now been laughing at the "fair count" (see this post by @lemoneyshipz) - as in which Tolkien characters have been described as fair in the book and how many times - for two days straight... buuut how about we, the fans, get our own opinions in too?
(I excluded the groups of people to get as many characters on this as Tumblr lets me)
((Still couldn't fit them all, so honorable mentions go to Thingol, Celegorm and Indis))

Fairy Ring
Tumblr media
Characters: Gil-galad, Elrond
Relationship: Elrond & Gil-galad
Relationship: Abduction
Tumblr media
Gil-galad does not see the fairy ring until it is too late.
He had been enjoying a rare free day in the forest, paying no attention to the path, and walked right into the circle of toadstools before him. He stumbles back, but too late; his vision goes dark and he is asleep.
When he awakes he lies on a spring meadow. Someone is stroking his hair, smiling down at him with too-sharp teeth, their eyes a kaleidoscope of colours.
“What a pretty bird I have caught,” they say delightedly, and their voice ensnares him until he forgets all else.

Tree Herding
Tumblr media
Characters: Elrond, Gil-galad, Trees
Relationship: Elrond & Gil-galad
Warnings: none
Tumblr media
“Elrond, why are those trees walking?”
“Mmh?” Elrond turned and looked at the herd of young trees following them, shuffling on their roots like strange, many-legged animals. “Oh, I am bringing them further south into the forest, there were not enough nutrients where they stood, and the wind was too harsh.”
“Elrond,” Gil-galad said slowly. “Trees do not walk. Why are they walking?”
“How else am I supposed to transport them? I can hardly carry them, nor could I leave them where they were unhappy.”
“How did you know they were unhappy?”
“They told me.”
Gil-galad sighed and gave up.

👁👁 I am looking respectfully at the WIP game, specifically "erestors secret house" and disrespectfully at "dark Elrond smut". Can I know about either of them? ^^
Sure!
Dark!Elrond smut is exactly what it says - a collection of short smut fics featuring dark(ish) Elrond, started for @tolkienpinupcalendar's Dead Dove December (and still not finished...)
A snippet (Celebrían/Elrond, for the prompt Aphrodisiacs):
Celebrían’s heart raced as Lord Elrond wrapped his long, elegant fingers around the stem of his wine glass, raising it to his lips. Instead of drinking, though, he swirled the crimson liquid around, pondering it thoughtfully, and at last lowered the glass again.  He looked to her, a knowing glint in his eyes, and Celebrían’s heart skipped several beats as she realised she had been caught. “An aphrodisiac, my dear?” His voice was as mild and even as ever, but it did nothing to calm her. “Quite clever, but you forget that I am a healer.”
Erestor's secret House is about Erestor in the aftermath of the second Kinslaying and his father Caranthir's death, and him inheriting Caranthir's House - initially I planned to write about Erestor secretly leading Caranthir's people in the Second Age, officially being part of Elrond's House, but recently I've been thinking to write a fic where Erestor openly claims his inheritage in Lindon, so this might end up taking a different turn
On the way back to Amon Ereb, Erestor had wept and wept and wept, refusing to speak to anyone as he mourned his father. Grief and guilt choked him, left him gasping for air as one drowning. Caranthir had died to save him. He lived because his father was dead. “Why?” he had asked, clutching his father’s locket as tears ran down his face. “Why do I live, atar, when you are gone?” “I wish I was dead,” he had screamed at Maglor attempting to console him. “I wish I had died with him!”

Ooh what are "sweet hours of love's delight" and "with thee wherever i abide"?
ooh, those belong together! they're both Nerd OT4 aka Sad Nerd Polycule aka Celebrimbor/Elrond/Erestor/Maeglin - With Thee is a fragmetary Celebrimbor/Elrond/Erestor fic with past Celebrimbor/Maeglin and eventual OT4 in Valinor, and Sweet Hours is a collection of OT4 smut - I haven't worked on both in a while, but I'm hoping to get them to a point where I can post them one day
A snippet from With thee, wherever I abide
"My star, you are ensnaring people again." Erestor's soft, amused voice cut through his reverie. Elrond looked up sheepishly and Celebrimbor felt their hold on him fade away, feeling as if waking from a dream.  He blinked and looked at Elrond questioningly. "Ensnare?" "Forgive me, Tyelpë, I did not mean to. You are just so tempting…" Elrond gave him an apologetic smile, taking his hand and pressing a feather-light kiss to it.  Erestor must have seen the confusion on Celebrimbor's face and decided to take pity on him. "Do you not remember the tale of Thingol and Melian in the forest?" Oh. "They could have you lose yourself in their eyes for eternity, if they wished."
And from Sweet Hours of Love's Delight
"You're late," Elrond grinned from the bed, leaning back in the plush cushions while Erestor thrust into them languidly. "So you decided to get started without us?" Celebrimbor laughed and threw an arm around Lómion, who had entered behind him. They had gotten caught up in their new project and nearly forgotten about their lovers waiting for them. Lómion smirked. "Kiss me, Tyelpë," he ordered and held Elrond's gaze as Celebrimbor complied, kissing him deeply, passionately.  Elrond shifted under Erestor, voice heavy with arousal. "Come over here already and join us before I lose my patience."

Throwback Thursday Monday
tagged by @ettelene, thank you!
I too have plenty of smut, but I may have even more implied smut - the Drabble Duel from last year's B2MEM was a particularly fun exercise in hinting at more within 100 words, so here are 3 smutty drabbles... without smut
A Lesson
In hindsight, Elrond thought, trying to fondle his lover in the forge might not have been the wisest idea. “If you cannot keep your hands to yourself, little star,” Celebrimbor had said, “perhaps I shall have to teach you a lesson.” And so Elrond found himself kneeling naked on the cold stone floor of Celebrimbor’s forge, his hands tied behind his back and to his ankles, his legs spread wide by a bar between his knees. “What a pretty sight you make, my Elrond,” Celebrimbor whispered into his ear before returning to his work, leaving Elrond to kneel and wait.
My Jewel
“Kneel,” Celebrimbor says softly, and Lómion obeys. His posture is impeccable – legs spread, hands folded behind his back, head bowed. “Very good,” Celebrimbor praises. “Look at me.” Lómion’s eyes are dark and trusting. He submits so well. Celebrimbor wants to hold him close, far away from the world that had hurt him, keep him safe forever. “Who do you belong to, my precious jewel?” “You, my Lord.” Celebrimbor runs a finger along the mithril collar around Lómion’s throat. “Mine. Mine to love, mine to treasure.” “Yours to command, yours to use.” Celebrimbor pulls him up and into a bruising kiss.
Blackmail
The door opens, and Lómion enters. “Annatar,” he greets. “Or should I say Sauron?” “How…” “Did you truly think I had forgotten, Gorthaur? Now…” There is a small smile on his lips that unsettles Annatar. “I can go and tell Lord Celebrimbor, or…” A shiver runs down Annatar’s spine at Lómion’s tone. “... you can take off your clothes, lie down on the bed, and spread your legs.” Slowly, Annatar complies. When he wakes the next morning, sore and aching from Lómion’s attentions, he finds he cannot move. “Maia-safe chains,” Lómion grins. “Now stay right here while I fetch Lord Celebrimbor.”
