    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

    “My dear Mr. Baggins, you cannot possibly imagine I have brought you across the boundaries of the sundered world, bending every law of gods and men, over land and over sea and through the fathomless heights, for your health? Well, I did, of course I did, and I’d do it again. But it was not for your own good only that I brought you here. I have been on this world a very long time, Mr. Baggins, and if there is one thing that I have learned about the Wise and the Great, it’s that they benefit from the company of hobbits, and it’s the wisest and greatest who have most need of them.”

    Summary

    After multiple millennia and much healing in the Halls of Mandos, Maitimo was ready to be reborn and finally live in peace with his family and his beloved husband. However, when the Valar announce that they will be giving one of them a chance to go back and help take down Sauron once and for all, he offers himself for the quest. Not only does he have the highest chances of not being recognised -now that he has the right hröa, that is- but he has a younger brother to find and drag back home to their family, as well as a son to apologise to.

    Sauron never really stood a chance.

    Summary

    The Halls of Mandos are not for song, but for whispers, and yet a bright voice rings out like a bell all the same, a thunderclap in the darkest corners, those that dare encroach on the Void itself. Death is a circle, and should his world not reflect that?

    The song is one of treachery, of trust afterwards, of broken bonds reforged, and it ripples through the air in a single clear note, until-

    “Ah, no. That’s not right. It never would have worked, would it. Perhaps- no, wait. Not that either.”

    Technically, they are not for Finrod Felagund, either, but that has yet to stop him.

    Summary

    There are some souls who take a very long time to heal in the care of Námo, lost and pained and unsure of their place in the world… but wounds heal, and eventually even the most reluctant step out someday.

     

    “It is time, King Finwë”
    “Your time in my Halls has served you well, but there is no reason for you to dwell here”

     

    A door is set ajar with the gentle morning sun just behind it, ready to be set wide open.

     

    Or, of Finwë’s return.

    Summary

    “Is it time?” he whispers. It comes out hoarse and harsh, dried from sand and no water.

    The stranger regards him, a hobbit covered in dirt and dust and bloody, tattered clothes, with a piercing look. Frodo feels he is looking into his soul, but strangely does not mind.

    “Not yet,” the stranger answers.

    Summary


    For a few seconds, Gil-galad stared at him. Once he had processed the thought, he started to chuckle, then to laugh outright so loudly he startled the birds from a nearby tree. It took him several moments to calm down, and when he did, he managed to gasp,

    “Of course those little nightmares are actually my brothers,”

    which explained absolutely nothing to Fingon.

    Fingon reunites with his son, Gil-galad, and learns a little about what has been happening in Middle Earth since his death. Gil-galad reunites with Celebrian, and learns a lot about what Elrond has been up to since his death. And Elrond is planning something.
