    Summary

    “Oh,” Fingon says instantly, “If you truly think I am huge, I must tell you about my friend.”

    Finduilas pauses, suspicious. “You have a friend?”

    “Cruel. I have many friends.”

    “Name them then,” she demands.

    “My friend,” Fingon ignores it, “is even taller than I am.”

    Slowly, she draws back to stare at his face with pure disbelief, as if he has announced that the moon has moved.

    “No,” she says, flat as a door shutting.

    ...

    Minas Tirith has seen countless visitors.

    Summary

    “We have given you time,” Celegorm said. “You are my brother’s wife. That gives me a share of you.”

    “Not to me, it doesn’t,” Silithúr snapped, and had gone to take refuge by Curufin, who looked upon her fear indulgently. That was not the same thing as protection, she keenly knew. The problem with relying upon his word was that he had never understood her objection, only humored it.

    Eventually his patience ran out.

    Summary

    'If loving you were a sin,’ breathes Findekáno, reverent lips pressed to his shoulder blade, whispering as if in holy confession, ‘then I would be glad to burn.'

    This is the story of Maitimo and Findekáno through much tragedy and much less triumph, much loss and much more love, from the Years of the Trees to the end of the First Age.

    Summary

    A familiar sound: the door Maglor had hung, parting in a rustle of leaves and cloth. Maedhros closed his eyes.

    “He wasn’t alone,” someone called out with grim satisfaction. “Brought a bedwarmer for the road.”

    Summary

    “What do you mean by this, Kinslayer? Why you, and why me? What do you want?”

    Maedhros seemed pleased to be asked. “To ask your pardon and to grant you mine.”

    Thingol stood up. “This will be a short interview then; I do not give it and I will not take it.”

    Maedhros looked up at him with quiet attention, but wrath was building in Thingol’s voice. “How do you have the effrontery to stand before me and declare that you, the leader of the most infamous scourge to arise among the Eldar, the chief of the Noldor invaders, the one responsible for pulling down Morgoth’s wrath on all our heads, that you, murderer of your people and your family and yourself, have something to forgive me for?”

    Summary

    "Maedhros sought destruction body and spirit, and found both. When Mandos summoned him, he refused, and first of them all he has been taken by the void that they swore themselves to. He is not in the world, and will not come again. Deeper darknesses are there than that which Morgoth made below Thangorodrim!” Fingon paused and looked at Finrod. “Should I not then have killed him as he asked me?”

    “No!” said Finrod, but Turgon said nothing.

    Sam grew even more upset. “Now that’s not right,” he said, “that can’t be right! Just or not – and I don’t know that it is, begging your pardon, sir – still, no story should end that way!”

    Summary

    "Congratulations on taking the first steps of your divinely approved divorce!" said Eonwë, with the blithe good cheer of a person who could absolutely pummel both of them silly and then chuck them back into Mandos one-handed. The Herald of the Valar was not someone to be intimidated by a bad-tempered Elf. "We can now proceed with the next stage!"

    "What next stage?" demanded Fingon. "It's over! What else is there to say?"

    Summary

    Even before Sauron seized them and twisted them to his own purpose, using the palantíri was always a risky business.

    Fingon loves risk almost as much as he loves Maedhros.

    Summary

    Coming of age is a messy business at the best of times and in Valinor, with strife growing between the sons of Finwë and darkness soon to fall, these aren't the best of times.

    Maedhros does his best to be a good son, a good prince, a good brother, a good friend.

    His best is nowhere near enough.

    Summary

    "Maedhros, forgive me for saying it plainly: if you bound yourself to him just to bind him to this battle, then it was not well done. It was not—" the frown failed, and Maglor just looked embarrassed now, for sincerity did not suit him, "—not kind."

    "I did no such thing," Maedhros said.

    "But you did marry him."

    "Not for this battle," Maedhros said. He smiled to himself. This memory had never been a good one before. "We have been wed these four hundred years."

    Summary

    “Why have you come?” Maedhros asked.

    Fingon took another long sip before answering.

    “You wrote you did not feel safe.”

    “Did I? Oh.”

    How could it have slipped by him? He was always so careful in his letters! He had reread those few lines so many times, but it had not stuck out to him as odd. He certainly hadn’t believed it would make Fingon leave everything and ride to him.

    “Have you come to make me feel safe?” he asked.

    Summary

    “I hardly believed it,” said Maedhros. “What are you doing here?”

    "I bring a message from my father."

    Maedhros blinked. "Really?"

    Fingon grinned. "I believe his exact words were: you're visiting who, well if you must you must, say something suitable, something something friendship something something kinsmen, tell him good job keeping my brother's sons out of trouble, I'd rather wrestle another ice bear myself – but don't say it like that!"
    _

    Fingon goes to visit Maedhros, accidentally arrives during a Fëanorion family reunion, and quickly regrets many (but not all) of his life choices.
