Summary
“Harry, you can’t keep getting into fights,” Sirius whispered as he applied a healing salve to Harry’s cheek.
“But Sirius, you didn’t hear what they said about you! It was mean!”
Sirius closed his eyes before he pulled Harry into his arms.
“Pup, I know you feel like you have to defend me, but they don’t matter. What they are saying doesn’t mean anything.”
“Yes it does!” Harry yelled as he pushed away from Sirius’ hold and angry tears welled up.
“Harry—”
“No! You don’t get it,” Harry cried. “It does matter. Because they don’t know how nice you are. You read me stories every night, you sing sometimes when I can’t fall asleep, you helped me win the pillow war against Remus, and you let me have ice cream before dinner when Moony isn’t around.”

Or the one where Harry fights anyone who bad mouths Sirius and falls in love along the way.

Summary
"One does not get to choose nature, trees and toes are both part of creation," he says absently, filling up the glass. "And we've already had this argument. My feet stay bare for as long as you eat in bed."
"We've already had every argument, Elrond. We've been married for almost two and a half thousand years."
____________
In TA 2510, Celebrìan asks Elrond if they could spend a weekend in the insect infested literal cabin in the woods that they had - 2500 years ago - fallen in love in, as she has something to tell him. He, of course, can never deny her anything.Bookmarked by avid_aphid

Summary
"Putting aside Maedhros' inability to ever phrase anything in a sane let alone soothing manner, I see what he means," Elrond had mused, later that evening. "That the accident of our birth, two Half-Elves entering the world together, cemented our destiny as codependencies. Or comorbidities."
"Codependent comorbidities, eh? Cheery thought," countered Elros, smiling. "But nothing is certain, my brother. Perhaps you and I are simply counterparts."

Summary
"He looks so alive, telling me the story of those living twins. Yes, I know. Sam-dad has always said, to be immortal is to outlive memory. But what is it, to watch one’s lineage dissolve before your eyes? Once, Lord Celeborn could summon name after name from history, like Lady Arwen could name stars in the sky. And now I watch them flicker away from him into scattered fragments of light, displaced from their constellations."
_________
Samwise Gamgee comes across Celeborn of Lothlorien on a lonely Lindon beach, the two discuss their daughters, and a decision to sail together is made... but not before they stay a while with Sam's heavily pregnant daughter Elanor Gardner, to whom Celeborn tells all the stories he has left.A short and bittersweet story about fatherhood, memory, and a slightly different take on elven fading.

Summary
Now, it was a year after the Second Wizarding War, and though the tradition had waned over the years since there hadn't been time amidst the war looming over them, to make time for any of their traditions. But this year, they were prepared and ready. He and Remus had come too far to think about what they'd missed during the recent years—it had been eighteen years since they'd lost Lily and James, and the thought ached—but the presence of a lively house filled with the people he loved worked to alleviate the ache by quite a bit.
Sirius and Remus embark on some old traditions.

Summary
Bilbo Baggins would, upon his first visit to Elrond's valley, mention Celebrían in passing. How when he was three or four years old, he had fallen right near The Old Forest and had been crying, and the Groundswallow turned up, pressed a finger to the earth beside him and brought him out a little present right out of the soil.
"It wasn't a good present, mind you," Bilbo had said, wrinkling his nose at the memory. "It was an egg."
___
This is the story of a world in which a wounded Celebrían refuses to sail after her capture, and confined to The Old Forest, learns to make the earth move and flowers grow beneath her fingers. It is also a love story.Bookmarked by avid_aphid

Summary
"As much as Middle Earth made him feel like something pickled in a jar, there were times Elrond felt almost too Mannish for Valinor. Like he was an invasive species, or a green and wicked little gremlin, an anxious immigrant, the resident poltergeist of their slice of paradise. But at other times, like when the moon emerged and illuminated Celebrìan in a clichè silver glaze as she stuffed cotton into her ears to block out his snoring — it was like a part of him had always lived on these shores."

“Good morning, my lord,” Lindir called out cheerfully, nudging the door open with his shoulder, carefully balancing the tray on his forearms. “It’s time for your breakfast blowjob!”
Elrond, who had been just stirring from sleep, shot up in bed, eyes wide: “time for my… what ?”

Summary
"Lady Galadriel's husband?" Faramir asks in turn, and then flushes — no man would appreciate being addressed as his wife's husband. Well, he wouldn't mind, personally. But he's not like most other men. Nor, it seems, is this silver-haired elf, who is outright laughing at Faramir's flustered apology.
"Lady Galadriel's husband indeed, pleased to make the acquaintance of Lady Éowyn's betrothed," he smiles, bows low, and winks. "My name is Celeborn. And you have spent some time dead, I hear?"
"I have," Faramir nods. "Six minutes, they say."
________________It is a day of statewide mourning in Gondor for the losses of the War of the Ring, a ritual involving mass funerary pyres. Celeborn and Faramir skive off and spend the day beside an oddly named river very few have heard of, and find they have more in common than a fear of fire.

Summary
"Lullabies do not make kinslayers. This he knows. And yet, it never stops the worry from curdling in his chest, the only constant of all the cradles he has sung beside. For the tune endures after all, and nothing empty can truly endure: every vacant hroä holds a fragment of the fëa that once forsook it. Can a song be washed of meaning? Is tenderness immune to ideology? Groping about blindly in the dark of their dreams, Elrond had always worried that he was not watering the crops for his children to harvest, but salting the earth before the seeds could be planted."
___________________________
At a parade celebrating the the founding of Imladris, Elrond spots an unforgettable face in the crowd, a face he’s not seen for millennia. To his delight and apprehension, it is indeed Maglor Fëanorian, who brings with him two things. First, a suspiciously tame monkey he insists isn’t a metaphor. Second, the groundshaking admission that Elwing and Eärendil’s sons were not named Elrond and Elros.Or, a love letter to Maglor, Elwing, and Elrond.
