Sci-fi and fantasy, currently obsessed with The Silmarillion (Maedhros, Maglor, Elrond, Glorfindel, my loves). Tabletop RPGs, especially The One Ring 2e. Trekkie, Transformers, Stargate SG-1. Ao3 is dragonbornsandwaffles. Love a good fix-it fic. Fëanorian at heart. Header by erekuri, icon by veluv_art.
Hello! If you've found this blog, you're probably into sci-fi like Transformers or Star Trek, tabletop RPGs, or the Silmarillion (or shitposting in general). I've been writing fanfiction for over 20 years, though I've only just started posting on Ao3 under the name dragonbornsandwaffles.
I adore a good fix-it fic, and fics that have sci-fi elements like time-loops or eldritch entities have my whole heart. I also love to explore characters and elements like grief, love, strength, and healing. My works tend to give more nuance to female characters and explore who they are outside of their roles in relation to male characters. I do write E works on Ao3 and might link to them from time to time.
Though I am more Fëanorian- and Kidnap Fam-based, I also believe the situation in the Silmarillion is too complex to choose "sides," and I also have great empathy for the Sindar. Everyone was just trying their best in an impossible situation. I don't engage in discourse about who was better, etc. We all love our blorbos and I just don't see the point.
Main ships: Russingon, Maglorfindel, and Fëanel. On the side, Halenthir and Celrond. Erestor Caranthirion truther.

To Begin Again: M, Eldritch and High Kings Maedhros and Elrond AU, 150k+ words. My main longfic series. After being reforged and sent directly to Valinor days before the Darkening, Maedhros discovers that the House of Fëanor can reverse the Doom of the Noldor. Meanwhile, Maglor simultaneously finds himself in Third Age Eriador. The two brothers must learn to control their new powers while simultaneously saving their people from the Doom across the span of three ages. The bulleted fics below are part of this AU.
Every Ending is a Chance: T, 17k words. "As the lava burns his fëa away, Maedhros is reforged and returns to Valinor before the Darkening. But the Valar have something more in store for him, and Maedhros isn't sure he wants to know what..." A prequel of sorts to this universe, covering how Maedhros came to be High King and the specifics of the Doom.
A Place by the Fire: T, 16k words. "A year after Maedhros falls into the fires that are his Doom, Maglor finds himself falling into Third Age Imladris. At one point, he would have welcomed a new home with new friends and family. Now, the thought terrifies him - particularly when the silmaril melded to his hand starts to take on a life of its own. At least Rivendell is a place of love and healing." Part two of the prequels, covering how Maglor reunited with Elrond and started to experience his eldritch powers.
Courage of Stars: M, 116k words and counting (WIP). "An eldritch Maedhros gets more than he bargained for when he attempts a daring rescue in Angband. Meanwhile, in the Third Age, Elrond faces the Valar and Fingolfin, Fingon, and a flamboyance of Fëanorians arrive in Rivendell. Rediscovering family ties and what it means to be at peace whilst finding romance and learning to deal with emerging eldritch powers is a lot harder than it sounds." The main work for To Begin Again. It has time travel, domestic fluff, grieving rituals, accidental child acquisition, terrible puns, actual family bonding between Fëanor and Fingolfin, Fëanorian-Hobbit shenanigans, and more.
Hole in the Wall: G, 2.8k. "Elrond and his children cook up the perfect meal for CelebrĂan with some less-than-ideal results: Namely, renovating Rivendell one shepherd's pie at a time." A giftfic for the lovely BalrogBalls in the 2024 White Oliphaunt Gift Exchange.

âthe parallels between Zuko and Sokka-â hey HEY. I am grabbing you. The parallels between Katara and Azula. Both the younger, gifted bender. Each one being the inverse of the other: a living, breathing what if. Katara being horrified at what her bending can do when pushed to its limits vs Azula always trying to push hers further. Katara instinctively trusting everyone so easily, even though it burns her sometimes, and Azula saying trust is for fools, fear is the only reliable way but still losing everyone she cares about in the end. Katara yelling at her dad and being hugged in return vs Azula doing everything possible to please her father still being harshly reprimanded, so you know exactly why they both turned out the way that they did. Kataraâs trauma being connected to losing a mother vs Azulaâs being connected to having a mother. Katara ultimately being the one to take down Azula and standing over her, staring pitifully because thatâs who she could have been, in another life. is this thing on
[The artist, putting a simple cake next to a much fancier one: âAw man, that guyâs cake is way better than mine.â The Audience, gleefully holding up a knife and fork âHOLY SHIT! TWO CAKES!â]
I know itâs not July yet, but guys, happy 10 years of âtwo cakesâ. This post on god has been a godsend not only as a writer myself but as a friend of artists and writers who I love to encourage. This was legitimately a game-changer.

Just watched Adam Conover (of Adam Ruins Everything) make such a solid point that I think we should spread far and wide. Yes, having AI write your emails is lazy, sure, but people love being lazy. We need to really emphasize that sending AI emails (or using AI responses on social media, or publishing AI flyers, or or or) is rude.
It's rude. You're making someone take their time to read something you couldn't bother to write. You're telling them they were so unimportant you couldn't be bothered to actually take the time to say something yourself. And frankly, you're lying about it while you're at it.
Seriously though, the way some people treat liking media as if it has an expiration date is so weird to me. And three years is still so recent in the grand scheme of things anyway, actually!
