Summary
Fíli lived his life by an old dwarven proverb: when a fool drops a treasure, a wise man picks it up (it sounded better in the original khuzdul).
Bella Baggins never quite fit in the Shire. Perhaps she was made for the mountains, instead.

Summary
“Patroclus, look at me.” The king commanded, and I would be a fool not to obey. I tilted my chin to gaze up at him, the picture of a weak and humble servant. It would have been convincing if we were not both aware of the boy I killed, and the boy I had beaten. Accident or not, reputation persevered. “There are rumours that on the northern coast of Boeotia, a boy was born with golden eyes.”
*****
A rewrite of the Song of Achilles, in which Patroclus is a demigod.

Summary
Achilles/Patroclus. When Patroclus, the clumsy son of a disappointed father, is exiled to Phthia for fostering, he feels totally justified in his dislike for the king's son. After all, who could possibly tolerate someone so arrogant, so narcissistic, and so wholly and completely everything that he wants to be? Rated M for later chapters.
