Thranduil is forced to face the mortality of the person he loves. More or less.

Notes:

Tolkientober 2026, prompt #1: MORTALITY.

I’m not a writer, English is not my first language and the fic is also unbetaed, so.... Sorry! :D

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

“It’s not like I just realized it right now, no, it’s something I always thought about. But now I’m finally forced to face the fact that the person I love is going to die. I knew it was a risk to fall in love with a mortal, but-”

”Oh, for Durin's sake, Thranduil, it's just a cold, I'm not going to die right now!” and Thorin noisily blew his nose.

That shook Thranduil from his dark thoughts. He smiled, offering the feverish dwarf a tisane he had made to alleviate his symptoms: ”Sorry, silly me. No more talk about mortality!”

Notes:

Thanks for reading! ^^
