Sure having awkward hot dreams about your Best friend was normal right?
Being the second twin was not what Elrohir thought it would be cracked up to, struggling with darkness, self doubt, shame and misunderstandings will his family see before its too late .
Sometimes all you need is a shoulder to cry on.Bookmarked by Real_Midas

Summary
Maitimo knows he is not in his own bed even before he is fully awake. He is cold, freezing cold, as no elf in Aman could ever be. It doesn’t get cold in blessed Valinórë and yet Maitimo shivers, reaching out for a blanket that is not there. His right forearm hits hard, icy stone. His right hand hits nothing.
In a far too soft bed, under the pure golden light of Laurelin in a Tirion of many years ago, Maedhros opens his eyes. He digs his right hand into the folds of unfamiliar bedsheets, and knows immediately that something is wrong.
---------------
Maitimo in Amon Ereb in a Beleriand that he does not yet know must figure out how to get back to his own body while trying to understand the horror that his future self has become.
Maedhros in an Aman he thought long dead rushes to fix the mistakes that ended up dooming his line and costing him nearly everyone he ever loved.
The thing is, Maedhros might not actually want to get back to his own body in his own time at all...Bookmarked by Real_Midas

Summary
Frodo is trapped between a ring and a knife. He chooses the knife, then is forced to choose the ring. The Ring is an entity, built to torment the Ringbearer and feed off of his suffering. Frodo's anxieties and fears mix with the blood gold of the Ring, leading him to fantasies that soon turn to torment. Blood is not enough. Blood alone is not ever enough.
This Halloween one-shot was made possible by mental illness and a lovely walk on which I thought of the idea.
