Hello! This is where I share my Silmarillion writing, post occasional musings, and reblog the wonderful thoughts, art, and writing of other creators. There's a bit of a Daeron and Maglor theme here, which includes all those in their orbits and the themes on which they converge (music, storytelling, fate and free will, and water-adjacent wanderings). Be advised I post and reblog mature content.
My Writing (AO3 | SWG)
There are three main reasons I love writing fic: to engage with the text’s themes and lore; to laugh and be ridiculous (sometimes also engaging with themes and lore); and to make characters bang each other (sometimes also engaging with themes and lore).
So, the best way I've figured out to sort my writing is by Thoughtful, Funny/Warm, and Smutty.
Thoughtful
And Love Grew (M, 59k words). The story of Maglor's journey from Sirion with Elrond, Elros, and a whole host of survivors.
Mightiest of the Children (G, 400 words). Feanor and Manwe at the End of the World.
And She Vanished (G, 400 words). Melian seeks the guidance of Yavanna after the death of Thingol.
Solace (E, 400 words). Orodreth/Túrin, identity and leadership angst.
Stained Glass (G, 400). Elrond meets his mother.
On Such a Night as This (G, 1k). A moment between Elwe and Finwe on the shores of Cuivienen.
Illuminating Now and Dark Hath-been (G, 1k). Maglor encounters the great Mannish bard Dírhaval at the Sack of Sirion.
His Hour Had Come (G, 1.3k). Saeros' daughter reflects on the life and actions of her father.
King of beech and oak and elm (G, 1.4k). Thingol contemplating the wall reliefs in Menegroth and his relationship with Lúthien.
And She Forgave His Betraying Word (T, 1.5k). Queerplatonic Daeron + Lúthien, just before her escape from Hírilorn.
A Breath of Memory (G, 1.6k). Daeron & Pengolodh on Tol Eressëa, memories of Lúthien.
For Whom His Heart Yearned (M, 1.7k). Aredhel/Turgon. They only have each other left.
Friendship and Stern Demand (G, 1.8k). The letters between Maedhros and Elwing before the third kinslaying.
The Marks That Bind Us (T, 1.8k). Celegorm/Original Female Character. Celegorm meets a Nando in Ossiriand. They are more alike than it seems.
Beyond the Mist of Words (M, 2.1k). Daeron/Maeglin. Eldritch mindsex. Daeron Eluvion.
Who Shall Release Us? (G, 2.3k). Maedhros is reembodied and must come to the terms with the absence of Maglor.
Iron Cleaver (M, 2.7k). Curufin/Eol, spite and sentient (or not) blades.
My Son (E, 2.8k). Feanor/Maglor. In the fastness of Formenos by the light of the Silmarils, Maglor submits to an unspeakable desire.
Ungoliant's Bane (G, 3.1k). Eärendil tells his boys a heroic tale of his journeys, and later they share the story with Maglor.
If You Are the Healer (E, 4.6k). Maedhros/Maglor at Mithrim. Guilt, trauma, loyalty, love and all the blurry lines that connect them.
Who By Fire (M, 4.9k). Amrod/Fingolfin, working through trauma in the messy Mithrim-era way.
Scorched (E, 4.9k). Elrond/Maedhros, Maedhros/Maglor. Gothic psychosexual unfamily drama.
A Secret Chord (E, 6.6k). Angst and Love. Daeron/Maglor. Two broken bards get a last blissful night together. With fanart by navyinks. If you like: romantic smut, doomed relationships, finding joy amid the ruin.
Sediments (T, 11.7k). In the Third Age, Elrond follows a call and finds Maglor -- but Maglor does not know him. On memory, loss, and forgiveness.
Two Half-Kings and a Full Lake Between (M, 11.8k), co-authored with Melesta. Fingolfin and Maglor wrestle with kingship at Lake Mithrim.
Hearken Still Unsated (M, 15.5k). Angst and Love. Daeron/Maglor. Visions, nature, the beauty and tragedy of immortality, fate and free will, suffering and, eventually, a happy ending. If you like: love, angst, descriptive language, Tolkien's philosophy, deep contemplation, abundant water symbolism.
Funny and/or Warm
A Singer of Old (G, 900 words). Lindir is not Maglor, but he's also not Lindir.
