    Summary

    Chakotay : "In the middle of the journey of our life, I found myself astray in a dark wood, where the straight road had been lost."
     
    Kathryn Janeway : I didn't know Dante's Inferno was on the Maquis reading list.

    Chakotay : Actually, I borrowed your copy.


     
    ...What if Dante wasn’t the first book Chakotay borrowed from Kathryn Janeway?

    Summary

    She was told it rained the day she was born. She brought the first spring flowers of the season, her father often reminded her.

    It rained the day he left too.

    “My flower,” he called her.

    That was the last thing her father said. “I’ll be home before you know it, my flower,” he had laughed as he wiped away her tears. She had tried to hide them in the rain. “Count the moons until I return and mind your mother.”

    But she had stopped counting the moons when her mother left.

    ---

    Celebrían, daughter of Galadriel and Celeborn, finds herself thrust head-first into a war she had thought was long over.

    Summary

    It was on his way back from the stables that another scent caught his attention over all the rest. He noticed it before he actually spotted the source. It made Gil-Galad grit his teeth. Sickly sweet and overpowering: pain and fear.
    He stopped in the courtyard, craning his neck, then pinpointed it: a little heap on the muddy cobbles, more meat than person. Skinny brown limbs tangled up like they’d been dumped there and hadn’t had the energy to rearrange. Vulnerable. Terrified. Not-quite-mannish…? That was a puzzle.
    Gil-Galad’s nose wrinkled. He stalked across the courtyard for a better look.

     

    That was when he noticed the shape of the ears peeking out from the boy’s black, tangled hair. 

     

    Gil-Galad and Galadriel get caught out in a storm after a skirmish during the War of Wrath and decide to take shelter in the nearest sketchy edain border town, where they stumble across someone in need of rescuing.

    (Basically, we're taking the "when did we first meet?" "Seaside...you gave me water." tidbit from the show finale in the WORST possible direction.)
