Oh my! This fits the prompt so well, and I don't know whether to laugh or cry! (Actually, I'll just indulge both!)

Open fire-roasted... peaches!? I've never... but now I just have to try that! (It's fortunately peach season here.) (I'd like to try it with a Finwëam Elf too, but sadly it's apparently not Elf season here.)

I really enjoyed this, thank you!

Peaches hold together best when grilled, but if you halve them and then just skewer them they still do pretty well over an open fire. Sprinkle with a little brown sugar or balsamic vinegar when they've charred and softened a little...yum!! Good with feta or a similarly salty cheese, too. As long as your Elf companion is not interfering big brother Finrod, it is delightful.

So beautiful and bittersweet! I love the vivid imagery in this; I could almost smell the fire and peaches.

And the twist at the end! It works so well. I love that Aegnor uses his joyful memory of Andreth as a weapon against Morgoth to keep himself from feeling fear. It seems like just the kind of thing he would do.
