    Summary

    Many theories circulate around Middle-earth about the parentage of the High King, and Gil-galad has heard them all. As he senses the end of an era with his reign (and his life) coming to a close he ponders on where it all began. What is the truth? Only one man knows, and it isn't him.

    In Beleriand, the incomparable wealth of Nargothrond and Thargelion entail some family drama between them.
    Thereafter, in Valinor, ambition and greed set the tone of the playing field -- with the Returning elves, Re-embodied or not -- are caught in between.

    Summary

    Questionable attempt at depicting m/m elf marriage and sex from a Laws and Customs Among the Eldar and Ósanwe-kenta perspective.

    “You surely aren’t going to insist on silver and gold rings and a year’s waiting to be sure?” Fingon asked, amused.

    “At our age? And then to ask Manwë and Varda as witnesses and call on the name of the One?” Maedhros rolled his eyes. “I think I’d rather not, under the circumstances.”

    Summary

    Maedhros saga, with main focus on Maedhros' life in Beleriand but spanning all the way from the Time of the Trees almost to the end of Arda.
    The series is Maedhros/Fingon and the development of their relationship is one of the main interests of the saga, but other stories in the series look at Maedhros's interactions with his brothers, uncles, cousins, friends--basically whoever he is known or can be assumed to have interacted with.
    The series spans different genres and the stories can differ widely in mood, rating, etc.

    Summary

    "All his life, he would remember that moment: the silver bells of Hithlum greeting the rising sun, and then, as if in answer to the bells, voices raised in song, the voices of the Eldar, impossibly clear, impossibly beautiful. "

    In which Hador Lórindol comes to Hithlum, swears fealty to Fingolfin, and follows his lord to the end. And doesn't regret a thing. (Well, maybe that one embarrassing misunderstanding about the Feanorians....)

    Thanks to pp for beta reading.

    Summary

    The impossible happened: a Silmaril has been stolen from Morgoth’s crown. Maedhros decides to reunite the People of Beleriand against the Enemy and attack him while he is still unprepared, which is by no means less impossible. Meanwhile, in the hidden city of Gondolin, Lord Glorfindel of the Golden Flower pursues the meaning of his recurring dreams – only to realize that he is not the only one to see them...

    || A novel-length canon gapfiller on the Union of Maedhros, the Nirnaeth Arnoediad and the downfall of the Sons of Feanor; plus my take on what could have been going on in Gondolin between the Bragollach and the Nirnaeth. ||

    Summary

    In the early hours the half-built towers of Barad Eithel looked more like ruins than like the start of something new, ghostly in the mists that clung to the mountains and hovered in the hollows and valleys of Hithlum even under the noonday sun

      “I didn’t,” Fingon said, and raised a dark eyebrow in challenge. “I’ve been saving the difficult riddles for when you got here, so that I can see the puzzled look on your face when you admit defeat.”

      “Dear me,” Bilbo said and looked as doubtful as he knew how. “Bold words butter no parsnips, as we say in the Shire. I must hear these difficult riddles and find out if they are really hard, or only odd and Elvish.”

      “Odd and Elvish? Do you hear that, Glorfindel? The adventurer from the strange land of the Hobbits comes to Elvenhome, and now to Beleriand and declares us odd!”

    Summary

    Maedhros comes riding into Hithlum on a fine spring afternoon, and Fingon is there to meet him. The months that separated them have only increased Maedhros’ heartsickness, and he cherishes Fingon’s presence.

    There should be no reason for Fingon to make a move on him, but he does, and when Fingon kisses him, Maedhros’ world changes in a split second. They talk, and they bask in one another’s presence. Things are better than ever. Unfortunately, fate decides to throw a wrench in the middle of their innocent reunion.
    *

    Fingon’s eyes were curious, dark and beautiful as ever. Maedhros tilted his head. Fingon paused, hesitating, and came closer. His eyes fluttered closed. Maedhros broached the distance between them.

    Summary

    A selection of my Tolkien fics that a) remain especially close to the canon of the legendarium or b) seek to expand it; mostly starring the house of Feanor (or the more extended House of Finwe). All writings within this series are consistent with each other, but most can be read separately as well.

    Summary

    A collection of short stories following Caranthir, Carnistir Morifinwë, as he grows from childhood into adulthood, and the Flight of the Noldor into Beleriand. Focus on family and brotherly affection in the early chapters; Caranthir's lonely position as an awkward young adult in a family of dynamic relatives, and his role in the Doom of the Noldor in later chapters. Begins rather light and ends rather dark. Pun intended. This is a companion to my March of Maedhros series, though neither has to be read to understand the other.

    Summary

    "Officially, the identity of Fingon’s son’s other parent was unknown. Officially, only Finwë’s family was aware that Fingolfin’s eldest son possessed a hröa capable of bearing children.
    'But babies are notoriously indiscreet, and ours has recently learned to talk,' Fingon reminded Maedhros with a cheeky grin."

    Or, Maedhros and Fingon enjoy some happy husband time with their infant son at Hithlum, with a bonus NSFW chapter and some family time at Himring.

    Part of TSS 2022.
