Summary
Elrond fiddled with the hem of his nightgown. “Tell me about the twins, at least. Did they look the same, like me and Elros?”
“Yes, they did. Although when you got to know them well enough there were details that differentiate them, like with you and your brother. For them, the hair was usually what gave it away. Amras’ was lighter, and he always took care of it, spending hours braiding it. On a good day Amrod would run a brush through his.”
Elrond unconsciously ran a hand through his own hair. It was getting long.
“How did they die?” he asked quietly. “Were they together?”
Aldamir blinked and saw fire on the inside of his eyelids.
“No,” he said. “They weren’t. Amras died at Sirion. And Amrod didn’t survive the crossing.”

Summary
Fingon smiled. “If I confessed to how often I thought about bedding you, you would accuse me of intemperance.”
This was true, thought Fingon disliked being facetious. He shifted foot to foot. If he thought too long about last night, and bringing Maedhros to heel by force, it brought on a queasy, intoxicating hunger.
(Maedhros is healed in Mithrim, and Fingon discovers they share some new inclinations)

Summary
Quiet, until a voice calls out into that all-consuming velveteen that Tyelkormo has not heard since the Darkening--
“Please,” it says, though not begging, never begging, “Do not make me regret the kindness I had offered you.”
He looks up from his knives, finding Findaráto looking at him or perhaps through him with his jaw tightly set, and his own masseters tighten in response.
“I cannot swear you such an oath, Artafindë.” He lowers his head until their eyes are level with each other, blue Tirion lake to quicksilver that slips through one’s grasp. “Regret what you will. I am bound by my own duties, and pity will not stay me from honouring them.”
“Would anything?” Findaráto asks.
“No,” Tyelkormo answers, not hesitating even as long as it takes him to fill his lungs with air. “Nothing. There is nothing else.”---
Celegorm, Finrod, several conversations on totality and the necessity of violence before the end.

It is, at the end of the day, a silly drinking agreement among cousins.
Unfortunately, it's also a binding oath and possibly, when viewed in certain lights, treason.

Summary
Perhaps the strangest thing in his grandson’s war camp was Gwindor.
The former thrall of Angband, missing both a pinky and an eye, was the first thing anyone noticed when they approached the young High King. He stood at Gil-Galad’s right hand, the head of the king’s personal guard, a presence as steady as the steel at his hip. There was nothing ceremonial in the way he carried himself, no courtly bow, no polished armor. He looked like a man who had walked through fire and come out the other side knowing exactly how much of him the flames had taken.

Summary
Centuries after the arrival of the Noldor and the Teleri in Beleriand, a celebration of Morgoth’s defeat brings the Crown Princess of Doriath and the Crown Prince of the Noldor together. To save this newborn peace from their respective fathers, they’ll do whatever it takes. Including... getting married?
Meanwhile, Lord Fingon of Himring faces the monumental task of healing Morgoth’s ills.
--
They regarded each other with quiet understanding, all the vast majesty of their respective lineages rendered unimportant by the connection between them. Music wound through the trees; harp and flute, surely joyous in context, sounded lonely in their solitude.

Summary
It was on his way back from the stables that another scent caught his attention over all the rest. He noticed it before he actually spotted the source. It made Gil-Galad grit his teeth. Sickly sweet and overpowering: pain and fear.
He stopped in the courtyard, craning his neck, then pinpointed it: a little heap on the muddy cobbles, more meat than person. Skinny brown limbs tangled up like they’d been dumped there and hadn’t had the energy to rearrange. Vulnerable. Terrified. Not-quite-mannish…? That was a puzzle.
Gil-Galad’s nose wrinkled. He stalked across the courtyard for a better look.That was when he noticed the shape of the ears peeking out from the boy’s black, tangled hair.
Gil-Galad and Galadriel get caught out in a storm after a skirmish during the War of Wrath and decide to take shelter in the nearest sketchy edain border town, where they stumble across someone in need of rescuing.
(Basically, we're taking the "when did we first meet?" "Seaside...you gave me water." tidbit from the show finale in the WORST possible direction.)
