[kayleearafinwiel]

B2MeM Prompt, Card and Number: I20, Echoes in the Water, The Language of Flowers, Color Burst - orange, The Lord and Lady of Imladris, Snippets of Verse, Darkness, Darkness,
Format: ficlet
Genre: femslash
Rating: Mature

Characters: Celebrian, OC, Olwe's Queen, mention of Elrond, Olwe, and Celeborn's mother
Pairings: Elrond/Celebrian, Celebrian/OC potential
Creator’s Notes (optional): Sorry for my lack-of-sleep addled posting last night. So basically, it seems the Teleri (or Lindar) have a slightly freer interpretation of LACE than their land-bound fellow Eldar. Atto Fiondil never would have written it of course, but half asleep thinking about it, it seemed like it would possibly work. I may end up writing more about this place, for all I know, it actually kind of intrigues me. No "bonding" level sex in this place - but just about anything else goes as long as it's consensual.
Summary: Celebrian, walking on the shore of Alqualonde and missing Elrond fiercely, has an encounter with a Telerin (Lindarin) elleth that leaves her mystified.
