    Summary

    In desperation, Durin asks Elrond to take possession of the Dwarven rings in order to stop him succumbing to temptation. This is only the beginning of their problems.
    “I ask it because it can only be you,” Durin said. “Who else would love me so much that he would deny me the remedy to my ills? It can only be you, Elrond.”

    Summary

    Akin to the land elves, the water elves—also known as the sea folk—were blessed by Eru, created by Ulmo, master of the oceans. Sirens are the very beings most intrinsically connected to the magic that fuels all of Middle-Earth. Beacons of magic. Beacons of light and power.

    Sauron, having been defeated for long centuries, is in need of vast amounts of magic to absorb.

    And, fate seems to be on his side.

    Summary

    Cartan, a simple miner of Khazad-dum, is going about his job and enjoying the monotony when a strange figure falls out of the cave he is digging in. It's an elf, apparently, and one who has done many horrible things. But now, it seems that the poor sod just wants to be left alone. Enter: Cartan's little sister, Lathan, who would like to show this stranger her rock collection.

    Or:

    Maedhros thought he was dead. He really wanted to be dead, too, but this little dwarf girl just keeps showing him pretty rocks, and if he went to any of the elven kingdoms, he knew that his death would likely be worse that his first attempt. So. Staying with wit the dwarves, it is.

    Summary

    Elrond visits Durin at Khazad-dûm following the battle of Eregion. The pair haven't seen each other since Elrond came to ask for Durin's support before the battle, and the two of them have experienced their fair share of grief since then. Their friendship is due another difficult conversation, this time fuelled by insomnia and a few glasses of Durin's favourite mead.

    Summary

    It wasn’t his first battle and likely wouldn’t be his last. It didn’t matter. War never became any easier, and it would take him an age to be unfeeling enough to bear it.

    Or, on the battlefield, Elrond waits.

    Summary

    “A dwarf can profess their love in many ways, but offering a rock that is a favorite of their beloved is the oldest and most traditional”.

    /

    Elrond regrets missing Dúrin and Disa’s wedding, but that doesn’t mean he tires of hearing of it. Learning of their wedding not only brings the trio closer together (and helps Elrond make up for his absence) but gives Elrond an insight to Dwarven marriage and proposal traditions--something he’s grown very curious of as of late. In addition, Elrond has a chance to look at love in a very un-elven way, and gain a unique perspective all the same.

      Bookmark Notes:

      Elrond/dwarf, hardiness, expected, observer,   A lot went into this. I love elf relationships but to me at least, a lot of them seem ‘expected’. I feel tolkien attempts to mirror medieval society romance and marriages and even though royal  elven marriages aren’t super arranged, a lot of them read that way. I’d say the only one that doesn’t at this point is Nerdanel and Feanor. And arranged marriages aren’t bad, they just are something i wanted to expand on. So that said, i don’t think that elves would really know what it felt like to fall in love like mortals. Elrond sees it between Durin and Disa but for him, it’s strange but he enjoys it. And i honestly think that by this time he is literally a part of their family. That also brings us to dwarven marriage  traditions.

    Summary

    Rarely did one survive a dwarven blade, and when Elrond was struck down with several for his treachery, he didn’t expect to. Before the doors of the mountain were closed upon him, the last thing he saw was Durin’s face of anguish and horror, and then he was left alone. Elrond expected to die that way.

    But when a lone dwarf spots him outside the mountain, split second decisions are made and a new journey begins.

    Summary

    “I thought you said your father was a star.” Durin asked, confused. 

    “Do you know what it’s like to love someone, but to not speak of them?” Elrond replied. “Well, that’s what I was taught to do, until now.”

    /

    When another argument breaks out between Durin and his father, Elrond takes a different approach to offer help. In other words, Elrond finds the courage to speak on things he knows he should not, and opens up to Durin about Maglor and Maedhros.

    Summary

    Durin’s blood ran cold. The elf before him was pale and listless, their garments had been sullied by dirt and stained by grass. Their cropped hair, usually so sculpted and careful lay in tangles around their face. It was Elrond.

    Exploring the friendship between Durin and Elrond with a dash of poison.

    Summary

    After Sauron's defeat at the hands of the elves and Adar, a new kind of normalcy begins in Eregion. Adar and Celebrimbor have admitted their love for one another and turned their previously political marriage into one of love and affection instead. The elves and the uruk are working on a peace treaty, and there is even talk about a celebration to commemorate both the historic victory of the new alliance - and the marriage between the Lord of Eregion and the Lord Father of the uruk.

    Not everything is rainbows and sunshine at all times, but things are looking up. Follow Adar and Celebrimbor's journey after "Of Convenience" as they settle into their wedded life and face the struggles of overcoming the remnants of Sauron's terror, learning more about each other, and trying not to lose their minds in the face of the giant festivities that are being planned for them. While also enjoying some soft everyday moments.

    (Continuation to my previous fic "Of Convenience". Chapter count, tags and ratings etc. will be updated as I add the chapters.)
