Summary
As darkness finally fell, the stars emerged—but they were not the stars Alfred knew from his studies of celestial navigation. These were brighter, closer somehow, arranged in constellations that matched no astronomical chart he had ever seen. And among them, low on the western horizon, shone a single light that was not a star at all—a steady, unwavering radiance that called to mind the descriptions of the Silmaril bound to the brow of Eärendil.
"Turn back," a voice murmured. "This path is not for you, Child of Men. Return to your own shores while you still may."
"No," Alfred shouted into the howling wind. "I will not turn back. Not until I find him."
"He is beyond your reaching," the voice replied, its tone neither cruel nor kind, simply stating a fact as immutable as the laws of nature. "The circles of your world and his no longer intersect. Such is the Gift of Ilúvatar to Men, and the Doom laid upon the Eldar."
"I reject that gift," Alfred cried, tears mingling with the rain on his face. "I reject that doom. There must be a way."

Summary
Neil swallows back blood. “Andrew.”
“Abram,” Andrew returns.
“I’m losing my mind. I think I’m losing my mind.”
“You aren’t,” Andrew says, so easy, so certain. “You’re tired. You’re scared. That’s it.”
Neil grits his teeth. “I’m,” he exhales shakily. “I’m – seeing things,” he admits.
—
In which Andrew gets into a car accident one week into the off-season, and everything is fine right up until he starts dying every night in Neil’s dreams. Things get worse, and then they get better.
—
Or, how trauma and triggers persist even after decades of safety, and how Andrew and Neil navigate them and take care of each other throughout it all.

Summary
Wei Wuxian gasps back into life without a single memory left. His friends, his siblings, his home — all lost to the fog in his head, nothing more than a mystery slipping through his fingers. What else was there to do but carry himself around in bits and parts, trying to become whole, a letter waiting to be written? He is – he is Mo Xuanyu, isn’t he? In this body, with these people. This family. He has to be Mo Xuanyu, he didn’t know anything else, even if the name sounded wrong. That was all he had.
Well, that and Hanguang-jun.
Lan Wangji, for his part, has had his taste of love and lost it. In all his grieving and searching, he didn’t expect to find another.
-
Wei Wuxian gets resurrected, loses his memories, and falls in love.

Summary
A slightly different take on the 'realistic' self-insert: drop a modern woman into Middle-earth - and what do they see? Straight teeth, soft clear skin unused to labour, long well-kept hair, and clothes stitched so evenly they look impossible to have been done by hand. Both Eldar and Edain agree, these are unmistakable signs of aristocratic heritage. Add in a handful of Sindarin and Quenya, and her unnervingly accurate foresight - a gift of Elros’ line - and it’s no surprise people start making… assumptions.
So when the universe decides you’re Princess Tindómiel, who are you to argue? (Except you do argue. They just don’t listen.)
Isekai/self-insert with the canon doing allllll the heavy lifting and slotting you straight into the legend. Starts years before LotR, about a decade pre-Hobbit.
Inspired by the brilliant Home with the Fairies by the amazing I_Mushi.
