Summary
Three peoples awoke by a lake; several generations later their descendants tell themselves a story of continuity and change. Canon divergence, but the question of when the divergence happens is left as an exercise for the reader.

Tar-Telepta, Aran Morinórea by allllllllthethings
Fandom: The Silmarillion and other histories of Middle-Earth - J. R. R. Tolkien
21 Apr 2025
Summary
Silvergifting co-ruling Mordor for fun and aesthetics.
Celebrimbor finds out Annatar is Tar-Mairon - the ruler of Mordor - but not that he's Sauron, and then they play commitment chicken about it. Be a decent person by my standards or I'm breaking up with you. Marry me or I won't be a decent person by your standards. Promise me you won't go to war with my friends and family or I won't marry you. etc etc etc.
Both of them are at least half expecting the other to back out, because this is an insane person thing to do on both their parts, but because of that expectation, neither one does the backing out himself.

Fair Game by Tilion

Summary
It was a familiar scene, all of them gathered around a convalescent Maedhros; Celegorm paced the length of the small tent, all his terror turned to hard fury at the base of his throat:
“We could have their heads for this,” he growled. “We should have their heads for this. They tried to kill the king!”
[Or: Just when Maedhros is about to surrender the crown, an unlikely trio of conspirators attempt to assassinate him. His brothers . . . take care of it.]

Desire path by cloudbower for JazTheBard

Summary
It might have been a short story, a simple one. Two princesses: one dark, one light. A noble knight, pure of heart. Love requited, love spurned. A prophecy. A curse.
But only young rivers run straight. Told enough times, a tale wears at its boundaries, begins to twist and bow and braid…

Summary
(tell everyone about birdwatching club)
When Findekáno earns the honor of Manwë's holiest quest, naturally he asks his favorite cousin to be his questing companion. What better way to enjoy each other's company while escaping from the rising tension in Tirion?
(the second rule of birdwatching club is to expect it to take you to the strangest places)

Beasties by sothatsagoodthing

Summary
Her mistake was looking to the shadows, for that is where the beasties in her care tend to thrive. But not this one. Slow and quiet, so as not to wake it, she draws near to what looks like – though it can’t be, and yet must be – an Elf.
