Tolkien Meta Week Starts December 8!
Join us December 8-14, here and on Tumblr, as we share our thoughts, musings, rants, and headcanons about all aspects of Tolkien's world.
Carrying the Silmaril for millennia has consequences.
Humanity took to the skies. Eärendil and Ilmarë adjust.
Upon his return from Númenor, Eönwë has memories to face, conversations to have, and old companions to meet.
When the Valar descended from the Timeless Halls into Eä, they found all in darkness, with nothing there of the world they had seen and sung.
The story of Ilmarë and Thuringwethil, from the beginning to the beginning, again.
Drabbles inspired by natural history prompts, from the Years of the Trees to the Fourth Age, from Valinor to Far Harad.
Featuring Indis and Miriel, Ilmare and Varda, Earendil and his mariners, Aragorn and the past, and Beruthiel and her white cat.
Lulled to sleep by Luthien's spell, Carcharoth dreams.
A collection of Tolkien-based fills written for rthstewart's 3 Sentence Ficathon in 2018.
Varda's handmaiden and Sauron's messenger encounter each other in the night. (Ilmarë/Thuringwethil)
Even the mighty ones sometimes need help.
Ilmarë hovered outside that small cool patch of twilight, and called gently to her old friend, beckoning her. I want to show you something, she said. Come away with me, to the stars.
The story of Ilmarë and Thuringwethil, from the beginning to the beginning, again.
Written for Elleth for the 2016 RarePair Fest.
Ilmarë and her lover, before and after.
Three times that Ilmarë fulfilled her duties to Varda.
Ilmarë comes upon an old friend, and finds that much has changed.
Written for Isilloth for silmladylove's Femslash Drabbletag challenge on Tumblr.
Various one-shots about the Valar and Maiar. Most are very short and come from requests on my tumblr.
Everything is relative in the world, including superiority, purity of blood and safety. Too bad the Malfoy patriarch does not realise it sooner. Being thrown down from high places – literally or figuratively – hurts, much.
In the aftermath of the Darkening, three kings search for meaning in the midst of tragedy. One seeks absolution; another, vengeance, while the third merely endeavors to salvage what he can from the disaster and protect his people from future harm. All may find what they are looking for, though not necessarily in the way they expect, for, as always, the Valar have their own agenda. Many thanks go to my betas, Alassiel and Ellie.
The host of the Valar who marched to Middle-Erth to vanquish Morgoth were wreathed in valorous splendor. But what were they like before they set foot on the Hitherlands? A short piece; Thanksgiving present for Ellfine, Fiondil and KiMahalei.
