    Summary

    "You are Elrond's wife, are you not?"

    "The cultural practices of the Noldor are stranger than I thought," Celebrían muses vaguely, as if talking to herself. "You wouldn't think anyone would name a child 'Elrondswife', but I suppose it takes all kinds of naming traditions to make a world."
    _________________________________
    Near the close of the Third Age, Celebrían and Maedhros establish a re-wilding sanctuary in Valinor, to help elves fleeing strife in Middle-Earth recover and rebuild their lives.

    Summary

    The hand dealt to Eärendil the Mariner is a particularly cruel form of exile. The very same exile that Elrond Peredhel will spend the latter half of his life in Middle Earth attempting to re-enact, raising scores upon scores of mortal heirs. This form of exile relies on light instead of darkness. It strips away the merciful opacity of the world and lays bare all its intimacies, intimacies you can never participate in yourself, which show you exactly what it is you have lost with increasingly unwelcome precision. Some days, Eärendil finds himself begging the Silmaril on his brow to burst into flame and blind him for good.
    ______________

    From Vingilot, Eärendil the Mariner watches Maglor Fëanorian raise his sons, and reflects on how performance is a necessary part of survival.

    Summary

    De-aged!Merlin, Caring!Arthur, Caring!Knights, Reveal!Fic. If that doesn't say it all, Merlin is turned into a child by ex-druids bent on raising "Emrys" to be their weapon to free magic. Plot is actually just an excuse to write Merlin-as-a-kid fluff. SPOILERS for S4. Set during S4, after episode #whatever, when Elyan is ... you know. This is one I wrote way back in 2012 and have finally migrated it over to this archive in case you recognize it. That's also why it's being posted all in one go. If you haven't read this, I hope you enjoy!

    Summary

    “I’m an activist, Mr. Morgan,” Merlin explains.

    “I see that,” Knight Gwaine says.

    “I want this place to exist here forever. Forever and ever and ever.”

    “You mean until King Arthur climbs out of it?”

    “Yes,” Merlin says. “But after that, too, since I’m not like, 100% positive that he’s going to know what a fish ladder is. I figure we’ve got to do some work on that and probably his English before we let him go off into the wild.”

    “Right. Obviously, the English. But what happens if someone tries to put another body in the lake while you’re here?”

    Merlin doesn’t have an answer to that.

    (Three women's bodies are dumped into a lake, and detective Gwaine Morgan is assigned the case. He does not anticipate said lake to be guarded by a local 12 year-old and is even less prepared for what happens when the 12 year-old becomes his murderer's next target.)
