Summary
“How does it end for them?”
“If things remain unchanged, then in sorrow.” Vanimórë gave a bleak smile. “How else could it end, between an Elf and a mortal woman?”
“Indeed.” Elgalad brushed the surface of the portal. It hissed faintly, and the air tasted of salt and metal and ice. Maglor and Claire and their pretty town vanished into darkness. “If things remain unchanged.”
*
A crossover between Spiced Wine's Dark Prince AU, and Narya's series 'The Wanderer.'
In the Portal in the Timeless Halls, Vanimórë sees a vision of a different Earth - one where the Fëanorions were not reborn, and there was no apotheosis by the shores of the sea. Maglor has wandered alone for thousands of years, but in twenty-first century Scotland, he meets a young woman named Claire James. Vanimórë watches their lives, and makes a decision that will change the future of their world...

Summary
Stories of The House of Finwë, their followers, allies, descendants and friends, the Powers that shaped their lives, and their long fight against the dark.
My eventual plan is that this series will contain all sorts from fluffy gen to smut, humour to horror, half-drabbles to multi-chapter sagas. I have too many ideas to say if or when it will be finished, and everything I write seems to sow the seeds for six more projects. Most individual stories in the series will work as standalones; where that's not the case, the summary or notes will say so.
Wherever possible I've put things into chronological order; this isn't necessarily the order they were written in, but at least might help readers make sense of the timeline. Some fics, though, deal with events across several Ages, and I've unscientifically placed them wherever they seem to fit best.

Summary
An AU of The Ways of Paradox, in which Claire doesn't move to St Andrews, and instead meets a young South African ballet dancer in the Euston Tap one fateful Friday night.
Complete for now, although I'm not ruling out more stories in the future.

Summary
A place for fics that don't sit in my main 'verse, or any of my other series. This might be because they diverge from the version of canon I usually use, and/or from any published version of canon altogether. In some cases it might be because they explore a different take on a character or relationship than my usual interpretation, or they might be based partly or wholly on canon not related to Middle-earth (NB: fics for The Father Christmas Letters live in my Sing We Now of Christmas series). Many of these were written for exchanges and prompt fests, which are brilliant for nudging me to think outside the box occasionally.
Things may come and go from the Mathom-house. I have plans to come back to some of these fics and explore the characters and scenarios further, so they may be grouped into a different series at some point in the future.
Marked as complete as the posted fics stand alone and are not interlinked.

Summary
Stories telling of Maglor's life after the end of the First Age.
Sits within my main 'verse, Nárë a Lindalë, but can be read as a set of interlinked stories in its own right.
Stories are in chronological order (as far as possible) and most can be read as standalones. If that's not the case, it will be flagged in the summary or story notes.
