FiKi Week 2026 - Day 7 - 10 Years Months Later

Fili tried his best to not look at his watch and focus on the report he was supposed to be reviewing for work. Or at the door. Or at his phone, which would mock him not only by telling him what the time was, but also that there were no new messages from his brother.

Not his brother. Just… Kili. Fili was trying his best to de-sibling himself for months now. If you went to the trouble of buying yourself a whole new identity (again), you might as well make sure that you and your brother (whom you happened to be banging) ended up with different surnames.

And so, they were now just another charming gay couple, living their best lives in a small flat, in the anonymity of the Big Smoke, and, like all charming couples, having their little lovers’ tiffs’ from time to time.

Except they were going to have quite a big lovers’ tiff tonight, if Kili didn’t turn up in the next five minutes and with the groceries. More of a row, really. Fili was starving.

How long could a half an hour commute from Kili’s university campus and a spot of shopping in the supermarket at the end of the road possibly take?! It was hardly a fucking Quest now, was it?!

FiKi Week 2026 - Day 6 - Preparing for Battle

“I’m not dying a virgin.”

Fili blinked up at his brother and very slowly put away the Intratec TEC-9 he was trying to clean and restore into functionality. The SMAUG Corp guys they had evicted were absolutely appalling at keeping their weapons in good nick.

“Kili, you’re not going to die,” he said neutrally, choosing to focus on the easier part of that statement to deal with. “Nobody is going to die.”

“Mhm. And that’s why you sent that text to mum last night where you were saying that everything is absolutely hanky-dory and how much you love her.”

Damn it, Fili had totally forgotten that Kili had cloned his phone.

“I’ve got the lube,” Kili announced to the room at large and strode purposefully towards his bed. “Well, not the lube as such, but I found some butter.”

“I am not fucking you with some butter.”

“Ah, so you are fucking me, then?”

“I didn’t say that.”

FiKi Week 2026 - Day 3 - After Stone Giants

Any other sensible party would have just caught a flight. A smarter group might have simply driven across.

But no. “Do you want them to know we’re coming?!” asked Thorin, and the mad glint in his eyes stopped anyone arguing.

So instead, they were hiking. Having left the last homely home, (the Rivendell hostel – aged buildings, new-fangled vegan food and a truly bizarre love of its owners for everything Art Noveau), they basically bought up the entire contents of a tiny mountaineering shop next door, and up the trail they went.

“It will be a shortcut,” Thorin said. “Three days tops,” he insisted.

Truthfully, Fili didn’t mind nearly as much as he made it appear. Kili and him grew up in the Blue Mountains, raised traversing their ridges and peaks with their mother, who was keen on an outdoors-y type of upbringing, instead of the reliable-wifi-and-constantly-getting-into-trouble kind that the boys would have preferred. It was kind of nice to have Kili at his side again, expertly tying off ropes, wordlessly getting the fire started and instinctively picking out exactly the same paths that Fili’s own feet would have picked out.

The same could not be said for the rest of their party: lawyers, accountants, doctors, chefs, house decorators and bare-knuckle-fighters among them were getting much more adventure than they signed up for.

And that was before the weather broke down all around them, on day five.

I'm a little bit late but here's my entry for Day 1 of @gatheringfiki 's FikiWeek2026 for the prompt "Traveling to the Shire"

2026 FiKi Week- Day 1

I chose "Before the Quest" for 07/18 (I am a few hours late in eastern time zone in the US oop) @gatheringfiki :)

I am trying a few different styles of prose for these prompts, so although they won't be very long, they will give me some more time dipping into canon and spending time with the boys voices!

Art!Kili Psinting (Fullsize)

I wish I’d known you were an artist like all of us.

What did you think I was? Kíli’s sitting up now, sheets pooled about his waist. He resembles nothing short of a siren rising above the seafoam, poised and imperious as he waits for Fíli’s answer.

It comes from under the blanket. Fíli doesn’t dare show his face as he speaks these words: A stripper.

That’s courteous of you. Kíli’s voice is icy. Most people would just say whore.

Fíli comes out of hiding to stroke the small of his lover’s back. Noooo, baby, not that.

After a moment of solemn consideration, Kíli wriggles to put more of himself in the way of Fíli’s hands. What made you think I shake ass for a living? he teases. Not to be egotistical; I’m just curious.  Was it the rhythm of my hips? He blinks, wrinkles his brow. Hold up, was I wearing my Moroccan coin belt that night?

Welcome to one of our favourite events! Yes, the FiKi Week is back <3

Each day you have a choice of two prompts. Please pick just one prompt per day.

Please tag all your responses with #FiKiWeek2026 and tag us: @gatheringfiki and we will do our best to re-blog all entries and spread the word! You are also most welcome to post your content into the GatheringFiKi Community :)

There aren’t any rules here, guys, except that this is a FiKi only event (no other pairings accepted) - respond to the prompt in whatever way you wish, and have fun!

Art!Fili Posing (Fullsize)

Can’t people across the way see me?

Fíli hovered uncertainly in the doorway, swathed in a faded blue cotton yukata Kíli had tossed his way.  He’d left his own clothes draped neatly over end of Kíli’s plain iron bedframe and his work boots standing guard nearby, completely unaware that they would find a permanent home there.

Kíli glanced up from sharpening his pencils with a small whittler’s knife. His eyes glittered with mischief. Only if they’re looking. Anyway, I need the light.

Another drawing intended for the sequel. Maybe one day ;)

This drawing is from this year and was the last one I needed to complete the set.

These Binary Souls (Fullsize)

“So that’s all it takes? A few kind words from a synthetic and you’re all opened up?”

 Why? Jealous?

The question burned into Kili’s eye long after the letters had faded away. He buried his face in his hands. When he looked up again Fili stood directly in front of him, still and silent.

“That was cruel even for you,” he swallowed hard.

I’m sorry.

“Are you?” It came out bitter and rough. “Sometimes I can’t even breathe around you. You just…make all this silence between us and it’s choking me. But apparently it’s just fine to natter to on to a goddamn synthetic you met ten minutes ago.”

I’m twenty-five. You’re twenty-three.

“Uh, yeah, thanks for that startling insight.”

Do you know what most people are age are doing? Partying. Finding jobs. Figuring out who they are. Instead, I’m a knife and you’re a gun.

“I’m not just a weapon, neither are you,” Kili’s head started to throb. “We’re people. Living, breathing people.”

Are we? Fili flexed his synthetic hands, staring at the tips of metallic fingers.
