Ecstasy
This drabble was written for B2MeM 2012, with the prompts i22 Emotions (ecstasy) and i22 Femslash (Valier). It was originally posted on the B2MeM LJ comm and I'm finally reposting it here.
Read Ecstasy
Yavanna’s green leaves stretched toward the light, toward her partner. For plants could not grow without starlight, and starlight was not complete without being useful. And yet, their fellow Valar could not see the seduction of this particular exchange of energy. Only Varda saw it, and only she could join with Yavanna in this way.
It was ecstasy, this merging.
Varda shone down on her lover. To watch her leaves writhing with no wind moving them, the creaking of her branches, the feel of sap running through her limbs-- such brought Varda joy. It made her burn all the brighter.

I remember your posting that at the time!
It's a fascinating idea and you wrote it well!
(Is "Varda shown" here for "Varda shone" or am I misunderstanding that?)
Re: (1) Comment by Himring for Ecstasy
Thank you! (No, you're right and I fixed it. That's what I get for writing in a hurry and then just copy/pasting it here without rereading it. Thank you for pointing it out.)
(2) Comment by Huinare for Ecstasy
This one really stood out for me during B2Me 2012. Loved and still do love the premise!
Re: (2) Comment by Huinare for Ecstasy
Thank you! I'm glad you still love it.

I'm so happy you reposted this one so it can have a place to shine, no pun intended. I love the concept and idea behind it, and the writing is beautiful as well. :)
Re: (4) Comment by Elleth for Ecstasy
Thank you! I (finally) decided that it was better to not have LJ as the exclusive home for my B2MeM stuff-- and random ficlets-- and put everything here. I'm glad you still like it. :D
