The Halls of Mandos are unhealthy for young fëa, so they need to leave early. But sometimes there's no family outside yet. Or how Rog got yet another kid thrown at him, and everyone had to deal with it.

A lost and lonely sailor listens at night as a new voice rises, intertwining with the melody of the sea. (Or A retelling of Beren and Lúthien's meeting in a Mermaid!AU).

Fёanor burns his promises with the ships. Maedhros does not.

Just felt like writing about Tuor...

Elwë, in the Halls of Mandos, is finally reunited with his friend Finwë where he learns patience. (Finrod is mentioned, to no one's surprise.)

A'numireth, daughter of Ecthelion, and the followers of Turgon, arrive at Tumladen. Children will be children, no matter if they are elflings, humans or dwarves. They simply cannot resist the urge to try new things. A'numireth was no exception to this rule. Her curiosity led her (and her friends) to a few discoveries and a fair share of adventures.

Maedhros watches on as Maglor & Fingon try to settle a debate over whose harp is better. Maedhros/Fingon/Maglor, Set during Years of the Trees, Quenya Names Used

Fingon accidentally ends up taking Maedhros's hoodie home with him & finds his iPod Nano in his pocket. Russingon, Modern AU

Just pondering Emeldir & Company ;)

This story is the beginning of the "Warriors of Doriath" trilogy, and follows Beleg Cúthalion throughout his life, through parts of his childhood, and up until his death at the hands of Túrin. {1 "Warriors of Doriath" Trilogy}

Sequel to 'Tinker, Tailer, Bromance, Spar' (itself sequel to 'Duty, Wine, Gossip, and Buoys'): Two months, three weeks, and four days after returning home from an eventful/misfired/unrequited sojourn at the Guard Academy, Gil-galad and Elrond finally consummate their fast friendship turned mutual attraction.

Upon a chance meeting, Finduilas and Túrin traverse the caverns of Narog, beholding a wondrous sight neither of them would ever forget. But Túrin's curse manifests in the most unexpected ways...

A tale of the middle child of Thingol and Melian. One that brought sorrow and joy. In the woods of Doriath the trees whisper of heavy hearts. By the river Aelin-Uial the water murmurs of deliverance.

Who would voluntarily enter the Dor Daedeloth and seek out a way to sneak into Angband? Except for the lonliest, most desperate outcast with no one to say goodbye to. With nothing to lose and everything to gain. - This is the story of how Fingon rescued Maedhros from his bondage at Thangorodrim and what led him to dare such a hopeless undertaking.

My interpretation of Aredhel

They can let go and be themselves in the starlight. What can bloom in the starlight?

Numenor, Second Age 3280: The almost complete Temple of Melkor looms over the Golden City of Armenelos. A young noblewoman, navigating the treacherous waters of Ar-Pharazon's court, secretly visits the White Tree against the King's law, a decision that will change her life forever.

What if Sauron had not fled? In which Sauron takes Eonwe's advice and returns to Valinor to face judgment for his deeds.

My interpretation of Miriel in the final years...

AzureSkye's "Reclamation" got my own plot bunnies hopping of what could happen to Mairon next. Curumo's plots against Mairon come to a head, but who can rescue Mairon when no one can find him?

Finrod, in the Halls of Mandos after giving his life for Beren, reflects on the mistakes he made when alive.

Loyal to the Valar, Mairon forges the finest weapons Arda has ever seen. But an old friend returns who once turned his back on the gods and betrayed his kin. He wants to convince Mairon to turn his back on the light and join his ranks, promising him power and freedom he never had.

Melkor has always been content to be alone. He neither needs nor wants anything that he can't already create or provide for himself. That is, until he sees Aulë's prized Maia dancing freely in the fields on the first night of the Valar's feast to celebrate the creation of Eä. (Melkor/Mairon) (Rated T for alcohol consumption and very mild suggestive themes.)

SA 1600-01. Following their return to Middle Earth, Gloredhel and Glorfindel find their footing at Forlond and the court of yet another High King with all the political and cultural complexities that have occurred since their deaths. In time, Gloredhel rides west to search for Gwaihir and take counsel with Celebrimbor, now that Annatar has been revealed as Gorthaur returned.
