Summary
Celebrimbor took a step forward. "The Valar," he said slowly, meeting Annatar’s gaze without flinching, "are not known for their concern with Middle-Earth. You will forgive me if I wonder why, after so long, one of their messengers appears here, bearing gifts."
The maia chuckled, amused. "A fair doubt," Annatar said. "But even distant hands may reach across the sea in unexpected times; and from across the sea I've heard great things about Eregion and the drive towards creation that you've built here. Unlike Aman, Middle-Earth never ceases to shift, Lord Celebrimbor. I would see it guided, and this is the reason I felt compelled to leave the Undying Lands."
---Before meeting Celebrimbor, Annatar expected to find resistance, pride, and arrogance from the grandson of Feanor. Instead the elf sparkled in him a fascination and curiosity that he hadn't felt in a long time.
Celebrimbor didn't know what to expect from someone who claimed to be an emissary of the Valar. Nothing could have prepared him to the splendour and the overwhelming magnetism of Annatar. But is he to be trusted? -

Summary
Quiletirme's craft involves textiles, not smithing or jewels.
For that reason, she had no closer or more personal encounters with Annatar in Ost-in-Edhil before the revelation of his betrayal.
But she has friends among the Gwaith-i-Mirdain, one friend in particular, and so that betrayal affects her very personally, nevertheless. -

Summary
Adar finds an unlikely ally in Eragion after his children turn on him in a bout of unexpected battle madness. Surely this time, the elf he’s brought home really will help him defeat Sauron instead of using his mercy as an opportunity to kill dozens of orcs AGAIN. Surely this time he can truly defeat Sauron and keep the Uruk safe, right?
Celebrimbor manages to survive being tortured by Sauron. Now he just has to survive teaming up with the army that invaded his city, the heartbreak of his lover and his smiths turning on him, and the psychic damage that comes from being the son of an infamous kingdom-killer working with someone called Lord Father.
(Or: Sauron’s exes unionize, rebound together, and try and get custody of the kids. Canon divergence after ROP s2e6. Let's get out of Ost-in-Edhil with a lower body count!)

Summary
For Arafinwean Week 2025: Galadriel in the Second Age.
There is safety here and happiness and her daughter’s hands are warm inside fine leather gloves cuffed with fur, and still Galadriel cannot shake the previous night’s dream. It had been a cloud of images and sensations rather than anything clear: hunger, sorrow. Little Idril’s golden hair matted with ice. Polished aquamarines spilled in the snow.

Summary
"Celebrimbor was an anchor.
In his youth, before madness and oaths twisted his family, he had been the steady one. Even during the war, when the world fell apart and their family fractured under the weight of their choices, Celebrimbor had remained steady in the face of tragedy.
His hands were wonderful in smithing and smiting yet clumsy when it came to anything else. When it came to tending to his heart, to the complexities of relationships, to navigating the treacherous waters of loyalty and ambition, Celebrimbor faltered.
Annatar was the opposite."
A work inspired by Never Love an Anchor by The Crane Wives.

Summary
"And to what path shall I turn then? Which remains open to me still? Does the grace of the Valar yet shine above my blackened brow, or with these deaths have I sundered myself forever from their light? Advise me, elf, as so often you delighted in doing when we walked side by side in the realms of Men. Place your lovely hands about my throat and kill me softly now with your compassion—it will be a better fate by far than that judgment which lies across the sea. Should I spend the next Age prostrated before all the realms and rulers of Arda, still would I, and they, find my penance lacking. If I cannot find my salvation here, nor can I seek it within the Undying Lands, better to plunge ahead deeper into the dark, where at least I know I shall be welcome.”
Instead of the orcs discovering Annatar after he murders Celebrimbor, it is the Lady of Light.

Summary
I like to include the broken souls universe when writing for fanfiction challenges, so I decided to go ahead and put them all in one story. This will mostly be made up of unconnected oneshots about the peredhil either from previous stories, or descended from that group. Fluffy and filled with bioluminescent sheep!
Can be read as a standalone
Edit: No longer entirely fluffy
Chapter 1: Daniel and Disa meet in Khazad-Dum
Chapter 2: A blind peredhel nomad gets lost in Ost-in-Edhil and speaks to Elrond
Chapter 3: A little boy gets lost in Ost-in-Edhil (it's a big city, okay!?) and Celebrimbor reflects on his city.
Chapter 4: 2nd part of chapter 1, Daniel and Disa talk about Elrond
Chapter 5: Yrithiel and her dear cousin Erestor - how they were separated by war
Chapter 6: How Daniel came to be in General Tathaen's campSeries
- Part 8 of Broken Souls (Put Back Together)
