    Summary

    Celebrimbor has always known that his father was brilliant. He has been compared to him all his life under different lights—and most of them don’t paint Curufin kindly. This time, however, he allows himself to think of the father he lost rather than Fëanor’s son.

    Summary

    Celegorm, once beloved by the Powers, watched the wand be raised in King’s hand, and then the strings pulling his arm, and his gaze went through the stone ceiling of Nargothrond and above the ground and above the trees and rested finally on the Hunter’s hand, high, high, high above.

    ((The oft-promised Mabinogion Fic has arrived. In this fic, Celegorm and Curufin are forced into the roles of Gwydion and Gilvaethwy from Math fab Mathonwy. Explanations within. MIND THE TAGS.))

    Summary

    His gaze, inevitably, is drawn back to Finrod, the marred beauty of him. It has not been Curufin who ruined him so—had not been Curufin who had dragged him out of Nargothrond and into the wolf’s den, who had let Finrod protect him with his life. And yet.

    And yet it feels oddly fitting, that such a ruined thing should be Curufin’s.


    Through careful manoeuvring and a few lucky coincidences, Curufin saves Finrod's life without having to admit to anything so humiliating as having emotions. Contrary to what one would expect, this does not make things all that much easier.

    Alternatively: Curufin lies, Finrod lives, and somehow they do still manage to figure it out, for better or for worse.
