    Summary

    He woke up in a mako spring, naked, and with no recollection of how he got there, why he was there, or even what was happening.

    Midgar is destroyed. And everyone is terrified of him. If not, they despise him. But he's Sephiroth. The Hero of Wutai. What went wrong? And who is this man, this small man with the eyes of a wolf who keeps hovering so near, ready to draw his blade at the slightest infraction?

    When Sephiroth realizes that something horrible has happened, and that he will be a prisoner regarded with the utmost caution for the rest of his life, he sets out to prove he's not the monster everyone claims, and that he can be their protector once again. And that blonde man, Cloud Strife. Why does there feel to be such electricity when he is close? And why does his existence beckon within Sephiroth things he's never been able to put to words? Sephiroth can't help wanting to grow closer, but he knows that to do so, he will have to work even harder to earn Cloud's trust. But in doing so, will he gain something he's always wanted? Or will it backfire and hollow out whatever goodness is left?

    Sephiroth/Cloud

    Summary

    Maedhros' post-Thangorodrim recovery. Done to death, I know, but not like this. An exploration into the intricacies of anatomy and psychology, and the very real complications of recovering from such a horrific event for both the victim and the onlookers.
    Possibly distressing imagery - gore / post-traumatic stress disorders. So proceed with caution if sensitive to such topics.

    Summary

    Five times Mairon feels loved while wearing another's fana, and one time he is loved for himself. A psychological dive into Mairon’s shifting masks across the Ages, trading his shapeshifting mastery for a few stolen moments of tenderness.

    Summary

    Aerith Gainsborough has died more times than she can remember. Sephiroth has never stayed dead. With every ending, she rewinds the world. She bends time. He breaks reality. And after lifetimes of conflict, he offers an escape from fate, together.

    She is the last of the Ancients. He is the end of the world.

    Love was never part of the plan, but neither is surrender.

    Summary

    As the Siege of Angband takes hold, Mairon and Melkor must find ways to occupy their time. But how far does Mairon dare push his master, and will he like what he finds?
    An expansion into the main events of the Silmarillion from the Angbandian POV, from the Siege of Angband to the last moments of the War of Wrath.
    And now introducing the SEPTEMBER 2014 REMIX: A slightly longer, slightly more complex take on the original which I hope that everyone will very much enjoy!
    Slash; non-con, violence, general debauchery. This is not a fluffy ship. Flout my tags at your own risk.

    Summary

    A series following Maedhros through his times in Angband, in all of their dark, twisted, visceral unpleasantries; from his initial capture to his torment upon the Thangorodrim. Certainly not a fluffy fic. Heed the tags.

    Summary

    “Fetch me another.”

     

    Mairon’s gaze flickers briefly from Melkor’s twisted, rolling form to the stone slab he hunches over like a shade. The body of some nameless elf lies there, mangled and broken. Its pale skin is mottled with bruises and blisters, marred with hundreds of cuts, and obviously long-cold from death. It is merely one of thousands who have died here, upon the table, at Melkor’s hands.

     

    Thousands more will eventually follow. None who enter these halls will escape unmarred.

     

    “There are no others.”

     

    In the deepest pits of Utumno, Melkor continues his work. But when he runs out of elves to experiment upon, his gaze turns to another to torment.

    Summary

    “You really should consider changing that name,” Eonwe comments with a thoughtful frown. “Nazgul. It hardly goes with your… current status.”

     

    “Jailed?” Mairon asks, eyes flickering to Eonwe even as the rest of him does not move. He remains still, almost deathly so, not permitting a single muscle in his body to move.

     

    “Reformed, Mairon, please.”

     

    A Fourth Age What-If story where Mairon is captured some time after his defeat at the end of the Third Age and imprisoned within a tower in Valinor. The only problem is that even after his sentence is officially served, he refuses to come down. NOT 'canon' to the Tides of War series.

    Summary

    Melkor took in Eönwë’s face, those beautiful alabaster features cracked like a shattered statue of Almaren:
    “So, yes, little herald, here is the answer to the question you would not ask me, but which obsessed you nonetheless: it is your fault. You failed, and had you not, Mairon would still be at your side. You wished to keep him in a cage; I broke that cage. And he was so grateful... So devoted to pleasing me, to offering me everything he had, everything he was...”

    ―――

    Mairon’s journey, caught between a first love he cannot tear himself away from, and the obsession of a fallen Vala. The last spark of light within a corrupted soul, flickering with hope, betrayal, and reunions across the ages. The primary ship is Eönwë/Mairon, though Angband naturally gets a lot of screentime.

    Summary

    Mairon was perfectly fine with the uneven equilibrium he had found in the later ages of Arda. He has been granted leniency and a way to make up for his mistakes. He has his projects and his research. What more could he desire? Or at least, that's what he thought before a certain Noldorian prince quite literally ran into him and made him yearn for something he'd forced himself to forget.

    “You didn’t know?” Fingon snorted sounding almost angry. “Everyone else’s back except for Feanor, his sons, and grandson. Even Miriel’s back.”

    “They’re not going to be gone forever. Not if I have anything to say about it,” Fingon grounded out. “I will not let Maedhros vanish forever. I have things I need to say to him.”

    "And surely you have things you need to say to Celebrimbor"

    Summary

    Maeglin is ready to leave the Halls, but will only be released if another agrees to take him in. To the shock of many, Idril Celebrindal agrees to sponsor and house her dark cousin. Still, even with a home to return to, life after death is never easy. Elves have long memories.
    --
    In which: Glorfindel is kind of an asshole sometimes, Maeglin deals with a lot of internalized self-hatred, Turgon's a bad uncle but tries his best, Fingon's a good uncle even at his worst, and Idril is the only one who knows what's going on.

    Summary

    The first rule of being a 3rd Class SOLDIER was to keep your head down and your eyes on your tray.

    When a mission goes wrong, Cloud is left with a target on his head. Some people think he's a hero. Some people just want him dead.

    And Sephiroth? Sephiroth doesn't know what he wants.

    Summary

    In all timelines, Aerith foresees the same dire future of the Planet - reduced to an ashy grey wasteland beset with the devastating losses of many loved ones. Instead of fighting alongside her friends to oppose the threatening forces, Aerith risks everything traveling back to the past in order to change the outcome of its bleak future and to save those she loves most even if it costs her most cherished moments.

    A canon divergent time travel set a few years after the events of Ever Crisis: The First Soldier.
