Art: Complementary by Alassë

[alasse-mirimiel.livejournal.com]

B2MeM Prompt and Path: Step Nine - Wild Space/Blue Path - Character Study or Ship Manifesto/Orange Path

Format: art

Genre: Romance

Rating: Gen

Warnings: None

Characters: Húrin, Morwen

Pairings: Húrin/Morwen

Creator’s Notes (optional): Wild space roller prompt was to complete a step from the Orange Path. Figuring what to do for the nonfiction path was tough! Only one step left :D
Summary: Húrin was fair of face and golden-haired, strong in body and fiery of mood. But the fire in him burned steadily, and he had great endurance of will. Morwen was dark-haired and tall, and for the light of her glance and the beauty of her face men called her Eledhwen, the Elven-fair; but she was somewhat stern of mood and proud. The sorrows of the House of Bëor saddened her heart.

Rec List: The Doors of Durin by Zdenka

[zdenka]

B2MeM Prompt and Path: Fanworks Recs: Favorite setting (yellow path)
Format: rec list
Genre: (see below)
Rating: (see below)
Warnings: (see below)
Characters: Celebrimbor, Narvi, others
Pairings: Celebrimbor/Narvi
Creator’s Notes (optional): I belatedly realized that my first rec list about Celebrimbor didn’t include any fanworks with Narvi! This seemed like a serious omission. Eregion is one of my favorite settings in Middle-earth, specifically in the Second Age when friendship with Khazad-dûm flourished. I don’t know if “the Doors of Durin” specifically counts as a setting, but I love them too, both as a work of craft and art, and for what they represent.
Summary: Five gen and slash fics and one artwork featuring the relationship between Celebrimbor and Narvi, mostly involving the creation of the Doors of Durin.

At The Leaping Dolphin, by Kaylee Arafinwiel

[kayleelupin.livejournal.com]

B2MeM Prompt: “On silver necklaces they strung The flowering stars, On crowns they hung The dragon-fire, in twisted wire They meshed the light of moon and sun.” JRR Tolkien, The Hobbit (Purple)
Format: short story (chapter? I suppose it's really part of the same story as "Itarilde and 'Tani: Princesses Reunited" though it could stand alone)
Genre: gen, family
Rating: PG
Warnings:
Characters: Galadriel, Idril, Elwing, Nimloth, OCs
Pairings: Earendil/Elwing, Dior/Nimloth, Tuor/Idril, Celeborn/Galadriel (all mentioned or alluded to, none central)
Creator’s Notes (optional): Any characters you don't recognise are my Atto Fiondil's OCs. (Faniel Finwiel is questionably canon; her marriage to Olwe's son isn't canon so far as I know)
Summary: Some time after Idril greeted Galadriel at the quay (see "Itarilde and Tani"), they, Elwing, and Nimloth get together for a good catch-up. They don't intend to run into Galadriel's uncles (and aunt) at the tavern...Lindar s the term the Teleri use for themselves.

This post was originally intended for World Poetry Day (which apparently is 21 March), but failed to happen that day. (However, at least in some countries, Poetry Month will be coming soon in April.)

Summary: Some poems written for earlier B2MeM events. I've chosen short serious ones, in metre. Some are LOTR-based, some Silm-based. I don't have anything detailed to say about my individual choices, but they are poems that had stayed with me.
