The Burden of Beauty by Tehta

One long, meandering conversation between Ecthelion and Glorfindel.

I could say it's about aesthetics.
I could say it's about the author having fun with implicit characterization.
I could also say it's about vases, and grapes, and Maedhros.

 

The usual caveat applies: these are my versions of these characters, and while this story does not contradict canon, it does not have much to do with it, either. It's pure (s)elf-indulgence...

To Whom All Birds Are Dear by oshun

The Tempered Steel by Lyra

The story of Maedhros' captivity in Angband, his rescue and his recovery is in the Silmarillion treated in a few paragraphs. This is a fleshed-out account of the events that may have befallen between Maedhros' imprisonment and his return to his old life... as far as that is possible.

Occasionally drifting into AU territory, depending on how closely you follow the source (WHICH source? :P).

The usual warnings apply - particularly to chapters marked with an asterisk.

Part One completed.
Part Two completed.

Part Three, Chapter 10 added: In which the reconciled Noldor make plans for the future. End of the trilogy.

The Shipwright Shrugs by Kitt Otter

Short whatnots and nonsense about Círdan, spanning from Cuiviénen to Forever.

3 – Lavender’s Blue: Círdan chats with the blue-eyed, perfumed ex-lieutenant of Morgoth.

4 - Hunting by Number: Finrod and Círdan learn where they fall on Morgoth’s hit-list.

5 - Waiting: Nowë makes four promises to his brother. 500 words fixed length.

6 - Vertigo: Finrod and Círdan visit Barad Nimras, where it is learned that neither is without his phobias.

7 - The Way the Tide Flows: Círdan tells two visitors a tale about the Second Age and the choice that determined everything after.
