Fanwork Notes

Written for the 2019 Back to Middle-earth Month Bingo, for the prompts "Suvivor" for the Elements of Elrond Card, "Making Choices" for the Second Age card, and "Meanwhile the wild geese, high in the clean blue air, are heading home again" for the Late Great Mary Oliver card.

And for the SWG's Love Actually challenge, for the prompt: "For Maglor took pity upon Elros and Elrond, and he cherished them, and love grew after between them, as little might be thought; but Maglor's heart was sick and weary with the burden of the dreadful oath." ~ Of the Voyage of Eärendil and the War of Wrath

Too bad Maglor didn't rise to the bait! But I enjoyed the interaction between the brothers. Their last days together often end up being written terribly angst-ridden and/or spent in mutual anger, and it's always lovely when someone writes them as brothers who may not be happy with each other's choices, but who still support each other - and banter a bit!
I loved the dig at the helmet-crown, too! XD
