Table of Contents

This is a Senior skate entry for Arda on Ice.

The following seven prompts were used:

  • Salchow: end up somewhere new
  • Flip: something unexpected
  • Upright: a change of perspective (applies to the entire fic, rather than a specific section)
  • Blur: a moment of confusion
  • Layback: look skyward
  • Flying: a moment of uncertainty
  • Rocker: a quiet moment

It also covers General Prompt 6: any character depicted as trans or nonbinary, positive relationships between parents and children, rating G-M for B2MEM 2022

This belongs into my TMP universe, and I'm borrowing Celebrilmal from XirinofArvada.

Note that I'm using both Sindarin and Quenya names for some characters. That is because Rog has been using almost exclusively Sindarin in the past years, and his brain is now largely thinking in Sindarin, while Taminalma has been speaking a mix of both and is consequently still thinking mostly in Quenya.
