    Summary

    When foreign royals arrive at Lindon to forge an alliance, Gil-galad finds his patience quickly fraying—not least due to the foreign queen’s bold flirtations with him, and the handsome prince’s relentless pursuit of Elrond.

    But amidst it all, the quiet ire of his herald weighs heavily on Gil-galad's mind as he struggles to mend their relationship.

    Or, wherein Gil-galad has a very bad day (and night). And Elrond won't stop sulking.

    Set after 2x01.

    Summary

    Elrond thinks about the pity he has seen in the eyes of others throughout his life, and how it is his least favourite expression. It starts with the waterfall incident(!) and then leads up to that moment on the battlefield and beyond.

    Summary

    Elrond bore three elven rings for days and weeks on the journey from Eregion to Lindon. What might that have done to him?

    Very slight AU in which jumping off a waterfall has consequences, but none that are more dire than the use of the elven rings of power in the presence of Elrond.
