    Summary

    This AU came quite unexpectedly alive after discussions with my lovely Discord friends (again, y'all know who you are and I love y'all).

    'What if: modern AU, single father, three kids behaving badly at a supermarket'? It started like that, and then I decided to sort of riff off my huge main fic in Tolkienverse, also here on AO3.

    It unexpectedly morphed into a 12 chapter fic, with possible one-shots following. I hope people like it.

    Summary

    Short summary, because I suck at those: another elf shows up at Tirharad at the same time the Numenoreans do, and Elendil discovers he is not the tallest person in Middle-Earth (yes, that needs fixing as well). An attempt to resurrect a very old fanfic series I never published and see if I can meld it with the new Rings of Power series. Keeping most of the series characterizations but allowing for canon to flow in where it needs to, with the addition of an OC.

    Warning: please note added tags for chapter 8 and read note therein. Thank you. Spicy chapters are usually marked in the headnote, and start with Chapter 11.

    Summary

It's been two years, and no one knows what has happened to Isildur - especially given that his family thinks he died in the Southlands. Yet truth always finds a way of revealing itself.

    Summary

    The Ghost Elf and his spectral crew are wreaking havoc across the vast Sundering Seas. Admiral Veanelen is on a mission to keep the waters safe for all. However, she soon uncovers a concealed agenda behind the reports of piracy, revealing a bigger danger to the free peoples of Middle Earth.

    The story is set in an alternative universe where Adar has led the Uruk to the sea to become pirates rather than turning the Southlands into Mordor. The events transpire during the Second Age with a change to the timeline around Sauron's return and the destruction of Númenor.

    ~~~~

    Isildur shared with Elendil something that had been weighing heavy on him for many years. He had dreaded his father's response, but in it he found only love and care.

    Summary

    Halbrand dipped his head, and Galadriel’s heart jumped in anticipation, but his lips only grazed her cheek. “You’re the one who said ours was no chance meeting. We were brought together for a reason.”

    “We should stay focused on the difficult journey ahead,” she whispered. “Distractions during the upcoming battle could be fatal.” This venture was only an expedition but would likely turn into something much deadlier.

    “That is tomorrow’s concern, which I will treat with utmost seriousness and urgency,” Halbrand vowed. “But what of tonight?” He asked in a low voice, his lips hovering just above hers.

    Galadriel could hardly breathe. And could think of no more excuses to not reach for what her heart greatly desired.

    Summary

    "Halbrand jumps up, almost risking losing his balance, at the same moment as Galadriel. Facing her, he can finally read her expression; surprise, confusion, but something else too. Something dark, intricate, a drop of ink spreading its smoky tendrils in the water. A torment he can only try to imagine, if it’s even remotely similar to his own.

    “Hal..."

     
    or: after some failed attempts, singer and songwriter Galadriel Noldor (better known as Artanis) finally gets the chance to join the Halcyon Days, Pelargir’s most famous music summer festival. Halbrand Norsus will be there too: cocky smile, insufferable manners, a voice she just can’t forget. But after a rocky start, they’ll find out they’re more similar than they first thought…

    Summary

    The first time Adar saw her, she was quietly wandering through the palace halls, head bowed, unnoticed by anyone but him. He knew her name was Eärien, daughter of the resistance leader Elendil and partly responsible for the new Númenor regime. Adar could not stop thinking about her and her haunted look.
    One day, everything changed.

    Summary

    Centuries after the departure of the Elves, the slumber of the Dwarves and Ents, and the fading of magic, Men rule Middle-earth, their empires built on technology and industry, their civilizations advanced as they developed their own philosophies, laws, and politics. While the truths of the ancient ages have been long forgotten, the Valar, ever-watchful from Aman prepare themselves, executing efforts unknown to the people who now "rule" over Arda, seemingly unchallenged, for the shadow of Morgoth stirs beyond the Void and when he regains his full power, the End begins.

    The prophesied Dagor Dagorath will come—the Last Battle that will devastate Arda so it may be made anew by the Second Music of the Ainur. Centuries have passed, but the peace that has settled will soon end as the forces of light and darkness will clash for the fate of Arda. Thus shall Men, and the other Children of Ilúvatar, along with the Ainur, face their greatest challenge tested, for their choices will decide whether Arda is remade in harmony or lost to ruin. The stage is set for the greatest unity ever to clash against the full might of the Dark Powers, all while the final doom awaits...

    Summary

    “There is the heat of Love, the pulsing rush of Longing, the lover’s whisper, irresistible — magic to make the sanest man go mad.” — Homer.

    A Man and an Elf; an unlikely pairing that brings with it judgemental eyes and inevitable tragedy. Galadriel knows this, and even still she cannot resist the cosmic bond she shares with Halbrand of the Southlands, the human with a mysterious past who saved her life. Nor can Halbrand resist the connection he shares with this unruly Elf. They are alone, cast out for their past actions, and tempted by both desire and darkness that consumes them. In her, he sees an opportunity for redemption and in him, she finds an unlikely sense of belonging. While evil forces work in the shadows to destroy that which they hold dear in Middle Earth, will their bond lead to salvation or result in their doom?

    This is my take on a Second Age story in which Halbrand was just a mortal man after all, written for those who miss Human Halbrand as much as I do.
