Summary
There is a sweetness that is birthed from despair. When darkness closes in, Life reaches for what it treasures most, clasping it tightly to its chest, and clinging desperately to its fragrance.
The shadow of Darkness grows across Middle-earth, heralding the upcoming End of the Age. The twins feel it as they train Estel, the young Dunedan foster foreseen to become the next King of Men. Haldir feels it as he battles swarms of Orcs and Wargs on the borders of Lothlorien. And Legolas feels it in his bones– that growing dread that all his plans can’t seem to placate.
Yet amidst this, the quad comes together. Hearts open and wounds heal. Love blossoms and finds its way to the Light, singing faint echoes of The Song.
In the meantime, Erestor has his eye on the score and is busy orchestrating his own magnum opus. But some arrangements are not meant to be solos, and some vital players remain out of key. Fortunately, Lindir is always eager to learn new lays. And a certain bratty Mirkmood prince finally gets a fucking clue and starts singing the right tune.

Summary
Devastated by a quick succession of tragedies, Elrohir has sunk into a severe depression. Only the practice of faer bonding with his twin keeps him on his feet, and even then, he's barely more than an echo of Elladan. Legolas is reeling with the loss of his beloved, and giving up on the dream of his future kingdom. Haldir does his best to help, but in the end it's the combination of the Lady Galadriel and one serious Dunedain toddler that turns the tide.
Lindir is also struggling with Arathorn’s untimely death, even as he's called to tutor Elrond's most recent Dunedain foster. Erestor is still working his myriad plans behind the scenes, including turning Lindir into a seasoned advisor and getting Legolas off his ass and onto a throne, although some plans may call for some unlikely allies.

Summary
After many healing sessions with Elrond, Elrohir convinces his father that his trauma from being captured by Orcs has resolved, and the twins are given the all clear to resume their patrols with the Dunedain. Unfortunately, remnants of trauma linger, and the harsh realities of life as a Ranger weigh heavily, particularly when tragedy seems to dog the twins no matter how well they fight. How much heartache can Elrohir take before he gives up the patrols for good?
Warning: This installment is darker than many others in this series. There's still some tender moments and fluff and tons of smut, but beware, even some of the sex is getting a little stomach-turning. (Unless you like that type of thing, then ENJOY!)
I don't usually put content warnings, but check the tags and story notes before reading.

Summary
The presence of Orcs continues to grow in Middle-Earth. Not only the usual dark twisted creatures found in the depths of the Misty Mountains, but also strange new pale Orcs with increased strength and intelligence. Packs of Wargs are gathering between Mirkwood and Lothlorien, as the foulness of Dol Guldur draws an ever-increasing number of beings of fire and shadow to itself. The twins head south to investigate an alarming assemblage of Orcs in the Enedwaith, and end up facing impossible choices that could cost them their lives. (Should I say who is captured? Let's just say it's a major character, and most all the rest are busy trying to play hero, but we all know who they're gonna need to call on, don't we?)

Summary
Things are at long last starting to stabilize for Haldir. Everything seems within his grasp. Then of course, the problems start. What do you do when the love of your life keeps moving the goalposts? Everyone’s trying to figure out Legolas’ slippery schemes– except Elrond, who’s got his eye on Erestor. Erestor continues to train Lindir in the ways of politics, and it’s a good thing Lindir is a quick learner, because time is running out on the Third Age, and things are about to change.

Summary
When Shane takes a hard hit on the ice, he wakes up three days later to find his reality has been shattered. But the truth is, it wasn’t reality at all. Just an elaborate set of false memories conjured by a brain injury. 'False memory syndrome' they call it. Shane calls it a nightmare he couldn't have imagined.
Or
Shane doesn’t have amnesia. Instead, he wakes up wanting his boyfriend only to realize his brain concocted a bunch of fake memories of a nine year situationship and Shane has no idea how to live in his actual reality that Ilya hasn’t been a part of. Luckily, Ilya is…curious.

Summary
A collection of fics that take place in a modern Minas Tirith. Gimli is an architecture professor at Minas Tirith University, Legolas is an influencer-slash-instagram-model-slash-what-do-you-even-do. We follow them and their friends through the ups and downs of daily life in a city where elves and dwarves, hobbits and men are all just trying to get along.
The bulk of this AU exists as fanart - Find me on tumblr and twitter, and sometimes Roselightfairy is kind enough to indulge me by coming over to play in my sandbox. :) You can find her on Ao3 and on tumblr as well. The super fun worldbuilding is more than half her doing, so go check out her stupendous work and give her some love!
Finally, this series is ongoing and is reordered with each addition accordingly - so the narrative is linear, but isn't necessarily updated linearly. Check back to see updates as we slot them into place!

Summary
Gimli’s nostrils flare, and Legolas recognizes it as the gesture of relent that it is. He stretches his arm up, grabs his phone, but holds it a moment, still ringing.
“Five minutes,” he promises. Gimli huffs, keeps his large hands exactly where they are on Legolas’ asscheeks, spread open. It’s as if he means to sit right here exactly like this and ensure that five minutes really does mean five minutes.
“It’s for the best,” Legolas says, then swipes to answer the incoming call.
“Hi, dad.”

Summary
Jesus shakes his head slowly, looking at Judas incredulously. “Do you have any idea,” he asks, “how hard it is to be around you?”
Judas throws his hands up in surrender and turns on his heels in the direction of the door. “Oh, I’m sorry, I’ll just make myself scarce then, since that’s what you want.”
“That’s the opposite of what I want!” Jesus says, so loud that he forces himself to lower his voice before he continues to talk. “I want to be around you all the time, that’s the problem.”
Or, Jesus and Judas, in vignettes.
