    Summary

    Within a few minutes, both of them are ruffling through the dresser, opting for the unusual choice of thick socks first to keep the cold of the floor from seeping through to their skin. Shanks is quick to wiggle his working arm into his red button up, letting the backside hang until Beck finishes dressing himself. A black sock with rows of green Christmas trees and red bows on presents is slid across the amputated nub of Shank's left arm, and as soon as Beck helps him get the sleeve over it, Beck rolls the cuff up until the sock is visible. His lips graze across it so gently that Shanks can barely feel it, but he returns the soft kiss with one to Beck's temple—It's their silent "thank you" and "you're welcome."

    Shanks and Beck have a busy day ahead of them to keep up with the party ideas that their four college kids have given them. Shanks thinks there should have been more mistletoe involved, and he takes things into his own hands.

    Shanks/Beckmann focused, no other ships explicitly mentioned.

    Summary

    Once they have traveled a half-dozen times across the reaches of the land—from the Blue Mountains to the Iron Hills, the tip of lonely Andrast to the border with Near Harad, and so near to Rhûn that Aragorn has to beg them not to go again—Gimli suggests that he and Legolas might settle down. Not stop traveling entirely, he says hastily. Just… settle into a routine.

    AKA "Legolas and Gimli Grow Old Together". Starting with Gimli's 250th birthday, spanning 11 years as they travel from Algarond to Ithilien together (and back, and then do it all again)... and going all the way to the end. Featuring Elboron and Eldarion, man-crushes, Sea-longing, issues of Elven aging, Legolas family angst, shipbuilding, geography, and Lothlórien.
