Instadrabbling Sessions for April, May, and June
The first Saturday of each month, we will be hosting instadrabbling on our Discord server.
Fëanor allows Amrod and Amras to sleep outside on a spooky autumn evening and the question of ghosts comes up.
These five short vignettes are AUs that might have been canon. Each of them takes an idea that was conceived and then abandoned by Tolkien, and builds a brief scene on it.
A collection of unrelated drabbles and ficlets too short to post on their own. Each story has a separate rating and all are under a thousand words.
Newest story: Chapter 48: Aulë, Finarfin, and Maglor's ignored return to Aman. Crackfic. Rated General. Ficlet.
Cooking for a large family is harder than it may seem.
We all know about the twins Elladan and Elrohir. But what about the other twins in Middle Earth? Erestor has encountered not one, but four sets of twins while serving the Noldor: The sons of Fëanor, Dior, Eärendil, and Elrond.
The people of Tirion learn of Miriel's death. For the Five Things challenge for SWG's fifth birthday. 2011 MEFA nominee.
The madness of one of Arda's most hated and powerful Noldor and the Eldar perspective on his kin-Slaying.
Feanor lashes out at Manwe from afar
Thirty-one drabbles, each from the point of view of a different member of the House of Finwë
Three scientists discuss technology and responsibility in the Jornada del Muerto Valley on July 19, 1945.
A song of the most ruthless elf in Arda's history whose hand kindled war
A mosaic of memories of the Elder Days
These are my responses in graphic format to B2MeM 2013 prompts.
If we shadows have offended,
Think but this, and all is mended,
That you have but slumber'd here
While these visions did appear.
--Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night's Dream
Melkor has been imprisoned in the halls of Mandos for all too long. The day of the trial is approaching, and now he's willing to do almost anything to convince his jailer of his change of heart. From then onwards, everything seems to go downhill for him, and upon returning to Angband, his relationship with Sauron will turn rather tense.
50 Prompts resulting in 50 AU Silmarillion based or related drabbles or ficlets.
Ambarussa is afraid of fire to this day. There were four instances in life that made him fear.
Fëanor tells Melkor to get off his lawn. An imagined passage from the Noldolantë of Maglor.

"Sire….please! You came for the boats but… but can you sail them?"
At Alqualondë the Noldor found that there were unexpected helping hands waiting for them. Hands that trimmed the sails, manned the rudder and guided ill-gotten swan-ships to the Twilight Lands.
In the wake of Alqualondë and Finarfin's departure, Fëanor shores up power and Finrod must prove his loyalty.
The illusion that a silmaril can be stolen. The illusion that a silmaril is anything more than a silmaril.
We touch as though attacking.
After the Dagor Dagorath, all beings who once lived in Arda must reawaken for the Second Music, but someone is missing and Nerdanel is determined to find him.
