Nolofinwë’s Foolproof Way of Dealing with Your Half-Brother! 100% Success Rate! Guaranteed! by whovianhiddlestoner for kitkatkaylie

Summary
"Well, aren't you the most adorable little thing! With your itty-bitty button nose and your teensy-weensy toesies! Yes, you are!"
Whatever previous grievances there have been are all but forgotten, and as Fëanáro smiles wide, eyes shining with glee at having a baby in his hands, Nolo joins in with his own tinkling peel of giggles that just sets Fëanáro off on another round of ridiculous babytalk.
Nolofinwë has been chasing that high ever since.
-----There is only one thing that can shut down Fëanor's ranting and raving once he has started: being handed a baby. Any baby, really.

Ten Ways To Kill Beren by Kaz (Ilarie)

Summary
Beren is a selfish idiot, so this is all about him dying in multiple different ways. I tried humour, but I’m very serious when I say I don’t like him. At all.
Or: Beren comes to Nargothrond, Curufinwë takes a very understandable dislike in him, and Findaráto is exasperated all the time.Bookmarked by Very_Small_Prophet

Of Framing in the Quenta Silmarillion by EtDonaFerentes
Fandoms: The Silmarillion and other histories of Middle-Earth - J. R. R. Tolkien, The Lord of the Rings - J. R. R. Tolkien
19 Nov 2024

Summary
In-universe, the Quenta Silmarillion is not written by an omniscient, unbiased narrator, but rather by an in-world narrator, Pengolodh, leading to some very interesting questions about bias and framing, which I'll be exploring in this essay.

Summary
Time passes, and Elves fade. It is one of the laws of their kind, that even gold cannot stay.
For May, growing up in Valleynor-That-Was, the Faded Ones are a fact of life. He has no particular feelings about them, except that sometimes they're a real hassle (you can't just move them if you want to build something, after all) and he certainly doesn't want to be one, not yet.
But one day he finds a Faded One tucked away, and he thinks: fated one.

I have no excuse for this except terminal Silm brainrot and a desire to see Thedas encounter 7 foot tall elves built like brick walls. Anyway. I'm inflicting the House of Finwe upon Thedas.

Summary
Belatedly, Irissë realised she ought not have feared that Elrond may not be Fëanorian enough to risk defying the Valar to help her. He was too Fëanorian by half.
Even after her release from the Halls of Mandos, Irissë is haunted by a marriage she cannot escape. Eventually, she learns of a healer who may be able to help her -- if she can get over her fear of visiting a Sinda living in an enchanted valley.

Summary
It was not that she wished to hate and fear Elrond. On the contrary, she wanted nothing more than her darling little boy back in her arms, but he had become fey. How could she trust one who loved the very elves who had slaughtered her people and driven her to the Sea?
Despite her horror at Elrond's bonds with his kidnappers, Elwing agrees to meet with him once more in the hopes of finding common ground between herself and her horribly Fëanorian son. They come to an agreement, but not the one anyone had hoped for.

Summary
Erestor remembered standing with Elrond and Galadriel as hordes of orcs and wargs came pouring over the passes. Erestor remembered how a great flash of white light had beat them back for a moment, revealing Gandalf reborn, standing tall next to Galadriel, forcing Sauron's minions back from the gates of Imladris. Erestor had been with all three of the Ring Bearers when those same gates were breached and they faced a wave of darkness that was sure to wipe them all away. Erestor remembered how those Ring Bearers had all turned, to him, hands with their Rings reaching...
And that was the last that Erestor knew.

Summary
For seven thousand years, Nerdanel lived alone in the great, empty house that once rang with the sound of hammer on anvil and the laughter of seven sons.
Now Fëanor and his sons, newly pardoned, have been rebodied - but how does one resolve seven millennia of heartbreak and bitterness?
Nerdanel and Fëanor, and the rekindling of their first, flickering flame.
Compliant to events of The Ransom of the House of Fëanor, but can be read entirely separately.

Summary
In the long yéni after, Fingon and Finrod would always insist the night’s descent into madness began when someone (probably Fingon) ordered a round of Telerin brandy laced with sea-serpent venom.
Maglor, conversely, would always remember that legendary evening quite differently; he remains of the opinion that the evening took a turn down a slippery slope the moment the sun touched the western horizon and Ñolofinwë’s cursed firstborn opened his mouth.
(Or, a few weeks after Fëanor and his sons are rebodied, Maglor, Maedhros, Finrod, and Fingon go on an overnight pub crawl and in the process work through their unresolved arguments. With no little chaos in the process.)
Compliant to events of The Ransom of the House of Fëanor, but can be read entirely seperately.

Summary
“Hello,” said the Elf, tilting his head and studying the children. They stared back, wide-eyed. “Who are you?”
The two boys exchanged a puzzled glance. “You don’t remember?” said the one on the right. "I'm Réd."
“I’m Rín,” said the other.
[Or: Celegorm wakes up outside Mandos with a bow, two silver-haired elflings, and no memories. He sets off to return the boys to their parents and figure out who he is … but he might not like what he finds.]
