Summary
My mind has long belonged to Middle-earth, where the forests whisper their own language and time flows differently.
My soul wanders like Thranduil—beautiful, proud, hiding secrets, and my heart loves madly a single, uncouth Dwarf whose laughter can brighten the darkest day.I am not a man of the modern age, nor do I usually write it down. Yet this story burst into my thoughts, unbidden, unsettling and captivating, until finally I could no longer keep it to myself.
Today I share it with you—a tale of courage, love, and the homes we build not only in the world but in the hearts of those we love. -

Summary
In darkness and in silence walks the King alone,
he wields not a sword, but the perseverance of his heart.
The wind strikes his face,
yet he does not yield to the storm.Yet even courage, even royal pride
can shatter like a leaf under the weight of winter.
O, beautiful King, your suffering is known to the roots,
your tears are drunk by the streams,
your name is sung by the forest.For in your fragility beats the strength of ancient trees,
in your solitude echoes eternity.
Go, King — the forest carries you in song,
so that you may never forget you are never truly alone.Series

Summary
Thranduil was like a cracked jewel—still beautiful, but with a crack that everyone wanted to exploit. Some saw it as an opportunity to manipulate his heart, others to instill in him a sense of guilt and inferiority. Every word, every shadow of memory deepened that crack until he himself no longer believed he could shine without flaw.

Summary
The Ballad of the Lonely King.
Thranduil's work is a dramatic one: the more the world marveled at his beauty, the more he himself began to believe that, beyond his beauty, there was nothing in him worth knowing. Yet a heart that beats to the rhythm of desires, longings, and fears is not empty. It suffers when no one tries to listen.Series

How Not to Fall in Love with Your Enemy (And Fail Utterly) by KingOfShadows1

Summary
I have no idea why these two idiots keep popping up in my head. I recently read the novel Red, White & Royal Blue – the characters were great, the story captivating… but my brain immediately gave me the thought: what if Thorin and Thranduil were in their place?
That's how this fanfiction was born. You'll find inspiration and passages similar in tone to Casey McQuiston's book, but in a world where royal crowns, proud glances, and the eternal rivalry between elves and dwarves take on a whole new dimension.
This is, of course, just a play on the imagination – a kind of homage and a loose variation, not intended to copy or take away from the original. I hope the author will forgive me, and you will have fun discovering familiar tensions and entirely new emotions in Thorin and Thranduil's portrayal.
And if anyone asks: why Thorin and Thranduil? – the short answer is: I don't know. These two kings are persistently injecting themselves into every story I write, and I don't think I have any control over it anymore. 😅
And since my mood has been what it is lately, I often escape into writing, which is definitely the best medicine.
