    Summary

    “The Maedhros who stands before his son is not one thing but many. He is a struck-down statue. He is a fading demon. He is a sword in a nuclear war. He is historical debris. He is the sum of a nation’s ruin. He is the first sunset of the Empire’s apocalypse. He is Elrond’s beloved Baba, who would find him under every starless sky. Archives will dissect him. Historians will redeem him. Writers will swallow him whole.”

    In 1937, notorious Indian revolutionary Maedhros Fëanorian and his brother Maglor, take in a British colonial officer's twin sons and raise them to adulthood. Decades later, Elrond Peredhel, trying to leave a family tragedy behind in England, returns to India during a time of political turbulence and finds that everything, from the national landscape to his firebrand father, the ineffable Comrade Maedhros, has changed. Chapter 19: Epilogue, Afterword and 'Alternate' Ending.

    Summary

    In all Beleriand, chill Himring is the last place most would go for comfort. Fewer still would seek it in the arms of their crippled, kinslaying cousin. But Fingon has always had more courage than sense, has always loved a challenge.

    Summary

    A familiar sound: the door Maglor had hung, parting in a rustle of leaves and cloth. Maedhros closed his eyes.

    “He wasn’t alone,” someone called out with grim satisfaction. “Brought a bedwarmer for the road.”

    Summary

    So Fëanáro does not die cursing under the stars.
    It softens his temper a little, binds him tighter to his sons. Still, he remains himself - self-aggrandising, wilful and thorned.

    So Ñolofinwë does not lose his youngest in the battle of Lammoth, and receives weregild.
    Begrudgingly, for the good of all, he will co-operate. Yet, though a good man, he is no less proud and ambitious.

    Can they find a healthy way to co-exist? Perhaps not. They are a little too awful to one another. Still, they will try.

    Meanwhile, Elu Thingol's concerns are not unjustified, Artanis and Celeborn court, Findaráto is more than meets the eye, and Lúthien labours to make her own future possible. Can a somewhat better united Beleriand stand against Morgoth?

    --
    [Yes, there is half-sibling incest, beware! But, at least in my interpretation, they barely interacted in youth, as Fëanor was mostly out of Tirion by the time Fingolfin toddled, so their social and emotional dynamic does not really have familial tones.]

    Summary

    “I’m going to kill you,” snarls Feanor.

    Fingolfin tries to take the threat seriously.

    [The first sign of the Dagor Dagorath is Finarfin throwing his crown at his advisors and going into exile.

    Newly released from Mandos' Halls, Fingolfin seems to be the only person to recognize this. He must find his younger brother before he does something stupid, stop Morgoth from destroying the world, and keep everyone else in his family alive- and do all of this while his older brother follows Fingolfin around Aman like a particularly exasperating shadow.]

    Summary

    There were too many orcs between himself and Adar. He was alone on the field. The city was already fallen.

    And Elrond was still screaming.

    He held out his spear and met Adar’s eyes. Then he plunged it into the mud and released it.

    An accident turns the Stunticons into humans, leaving them naked and without resources in the California desert. Their only hope of getting their bodies back is to take a crash course in humanity, but if their enemies find them first, they might just end up roadkill.

    Summary

    During a battle, the Stunticons and Combaticons inadvertently become the victims of Megatron's latest superweapon, which was intended to turn the Autobots into humans.

    Now, the two teams must adjust to human culture, not get themselves stepped on by any of their former allies, avoid the human authorities, and try not to kill each other.

    This piece is a reworking of an older work of mine, "Humanity (Or Why You Shouldn't Mess With Mad Science 101)" that I decided I needed to rewrite. The basic premise is the same, but most of the story beats will be different.

    Also inspired by QoS' excellent take on the Stunticons as humans, "Crash Course".
