    Summary

    In which is conveyed the extraordinary tale of Victorian London's loudest family, the Gates Artificial Diamonds, and a series of unfortunate thefts.

    I started this series with a Fall of Gondolin story
    set in the 1920s. It has spiralled out of control completely.

    Summary

    The Fëanorians, returned at last, move to Formenos and turn the ruined fortress into a city of crafts and creation, a place of second chances and a home for those who do not know where they belong. Their family grows over the centuries, and Míriel's last work is in time completed.

    (Or, what if all my blorbos were friends and lived in a cool city together and bonded over an arts&crafts project)

    Summary

    Fëanor did not know how to explain the ill-defined uneasiness and the almost instinctual dislike he felt, how impossible it was to reconcile the impression he had gotten from the tapestry in Mandos to the reality of Daeron in person, in life. “He seems careless,” he said, because he did not know how else to explain.

    “That is certainly not true,” said Nerdanel, “though I know well that I cannot expect you to take my word for it. It is long since you placed any trust in anyone’s judgment aside from your own, flawed though it is.”

     

    Midwinter is meant to be a time of feasting and merriment, but Fëanor does not find it so, especially with Daeron of Doriath in attendance.

    Summary

    Celebrimbor unearths his bones.
    Nienna had plucked them out of blood-soaked soil, gently one by one, and had washed them with her tears, cradled them with her veils, coaxed their grief out of their shell. How was trust profaned, how ambition exploited, good will spat on, the wonder of love and creation twisted into the evil that the world endured?
    Questions as old as his bloodline. Answers unique to himself.
    The Lady of Sorrows had walked with him through his pains, prayer after teardrop after prayer.

    *

    Or, a study of catharsis: Celebrimbor returns to life, meets people, rebuilds Formenos, does elf chemistry, and talks with his mother; not entirely in that order.

    Summary

    Yet, there are three things that Nerdanel knows with utter certainty. The first: Arda was marred long before her husband lifted his sword to his brother’s throat, long before the swan-ships were set aflame, long before kin slayed kin upon the pearl shores of Alqualondë.

    The second: Arda was marred long before she married her husband, bore him children, and even now, centuries later with the lights of Laurelin and Telperion both aloft, she is still brilliantly, incandescently furious enough that she could burn it all to the ground herself.

    And a third: Nerdanel sometimes still wishes she had been enough to mend it.

    Summary

    “Father, I assure you: it is nothing. I would choose you a thousand times before any husband. Ever would I choose my own blood before that of a stranger.”

    After his exile to Formenos, Feanor locks himself in the vault with the Silmarils. Makalaure goes to him.

    Summary

    Celebrimbor could not heal in the Halls of Mandos. Now reembodied, he is willing to do whatever it takes to find peace - even if that means becoming master to the recently-defeated Sauron.

    Being served by a Maia proves far more complicated than he initially anticipated.

    Summary

    Valinórë has been left shaken by the flight of the Ñoldor, and life there will inevitably change. These are stories of the Finwëans left to hold fort in Tirion – events leading to such a situation are described in my story Love in Times of Family Drama.

    The adventures of those Finwëans, who sailed to Endórë are recounted in my series Things to Do in Beleriand When One is not (In)sane, and reading them will help to understand some of the stuff that happens farther down the line, but is not absolutely necessary.

    These stories wouldn’t recognize canon even if it bit into their backsides.

    If there are no ends, there cannot be new beginnings - thank you for reading these stories and and I hope you ehjoyed them.

    Summary

    Modern setting AU. Maedhros/Fingon. Maedhros owns a bookstore. Fingon is in grad school. Expect appearances from varied members of the House of Finwë. Except Finwë--he's already dead in this story. This is a modern take on how Maedhros and Fingon meet and develop a relationship. Obnoxious brothers, prying little sisters, echoes of canon and an overall need for this not to all end in flames.

    Summary

    Rebirth doesn't mean recovery for Tyelperinquar. After leaving Mandos, he pays a visit to Aule, hoping to find someone who might empathize with his pain. He's given a necklace - a necklace that holds the last vestiges of Sauron's soul. Overwhelmed and drowning in grief, he leaves to the abandoned northern forests of Aman, seeking shelter in solitude.

    Unfortunately, no one can outrun their problems for long. After an incident with a few too many spiders, Sauron's soul escapes its confines and takes an unusual shape - that of a slightly feral amnesiac elfling.
    __

    In which Tyelpe must decide what to do with his ex-turned-elfling.

    It's not really about the goats.


    November 2025: Not abandoned, just a little slower to update right now. Not gone! Not forgotten!

    Westward Ho! Instead of moving east, the Feanorians fulfill their Manifest Destiny...and doom. Lots of rushing, very little gold.
