Summary
He was silent for a moment. She heard his cloak rustle, the sound of his hand grasp one of the bars. The gentle tap of his rings against the metal filled her ears, and she shut her eyes.
“When you denied an alliance with me, I found other means of quenching my thirst.”
“For violence and depravity?” she shot back.
“For vengeance,” he hissed. “Just as you sought yours. Keep your righteousness to yourself. I care not for it. These Men, these Númenóreans, fought against me in the Great War. Slew countless lives. With their pride and their arrogance in their mighty goodness. They thought they were better than the rest of us as you yourself believed you were better than me.” His voice dropped to a whisper. “I wanted to see them suffer. I have achieved so much more than that.”
Written for an anonymous tumblr prompt: During Ar-Pharazôn’s rule of Númenor when Sauron holds the position of the High Priest of Melkor, Galadriel is captured in the middle of a war, imprisoned, and handed over to him as a sacrifice to be made in the Temple of the High Priest, but Sauron has other plans. From Akallabêth to the founding of Gondor, unlikely allies are forged.

Summary
Man, who is not a Man, pines hopelessly for a certain stubborn She-Elf, who wants him dead in every one of his forms with an exception to the one he currently inhabits. As they try to hold on to the unnamed feeling tethering them together, they are forced to come face to face with the network of lies and half-truths that spooled out of control and whatever lies in their pasts.
Basically, an alternative universe to the Rings of Power tv show, slowly starting to alternate at the end of episode 6, where ships sail, then drown, but then rise to sail again (perhaps, who knows).

Summary
"There is no such future."
"Isn't there?"
When Galadriel resurfaces from the water, it is not Elrond that saves her. She is not in the gardens of Eregion at all, but adrift in the Sundering Seas. To save Middle-earth and prevent Sauron's return to power, Galadriel must learn to separate what it is from what it was, and what was from what will be. But Fate bends to no Elf or Man, for what is meant to be will always find its way.
(A retelling of season 1)
