b2mem | The Wandering Elves’ Eclectic Music (Other LotR-based locations and multi-Age)

mistress-tanwe.livejournal.com posting in

“Music from all Ages and varied places, from the Noldolantë to songs celebrating the downfall of Sauron, focusing on the most recent times. (This is the stall for all prompts that are set in places in the Third and Fourth Ages that do not have stalls of their own, such as Moria and Lothlórien, or for stories that span more than one Age.)

Comments are now closed but you can continue using the prompts; no claiming is necessary.

How to Post your Prompts:

Leave a comment with the subject line identifying the main characters, gen/het/slash/femslash/poly (if it’s not obvious), a brief description of the prompt, and possible warnings if needed (MPTTor SWG’s). The comment itself should be the prompt.

If for some reason you cannot make a subject line appear, please write and bold the relevant information as the first line of your prompt.

The subject lines and/or bold text will allow participants to easily scan for prompts they're interested in.

For example:

Subject line-- Frodo and Aragorn, gen, hurt/comfort at the Field of Cormallen
Comment-- While Frodo is unconscious after being rescued from Mount Doom, Aragorn cares for him.

OR

Comment-- Fëanor/Nerdanel, wedding night, sexual content

On their wedding night, Fëanor and Nerdanel end up not sleeping at all, as they are too busy enjoying each other.

Remember, no fanworks are to be posted in the prompts posts.

How did Galdriel and Celeborn become the lord and lady of Lothlorien. Anything at all that includes their method of ruling and/or how they won the confidence of the indigenous people of that area. It appears they were welcomed and encouraged. But you can do something different if you feel like it. Mainly a fic that gives a feel for the time and place--late Second Age through early Third Age you chose!

I would dearly love to see a story that revolves around the history of the Elessar jewel, with Aragorn as a focal point. Doesn't mean he even has to be in it but he should have a central importance in the story.

I don't care if there is one version of the jewel or two, as you wish. Shoot, you could write a Fourth Age investigation into the provenance of the one Aragorn possesses.

Things that have been running through my head that I would love to see if it fits for you: Earendil, Vingilot, the Great Eagles, Celebrimbor, Gondolin, and a hobbit (an adventurous Took?).

ETA: You could have Merry and Pippin do the investigating after they return to Minas Tirith when they're elderly.

Teleporno the Telerin elf, Shagrat the orc and Groín the dwarf have THE WORST NAMES imaginable. Do they form a support group, or organize an orgy--or does one devolve into the other? Any rating and any scenario that gets these three into the same room (or maybe pen pals would be more canon-compliant?) would be a perfect fill for this.

I always thought it was interesting that both of Beleriand's renowned musicians ended up wandering off into the wilderness, never to be heard from again. I'd love to see some stories about them finding each other, wandering Middle-earth in each other's company, and making sweet sweet music together - whether in a platonic or romantic sense. Any Age can work for this, up to and including modern times and indeed the future.

I'm buying this one.

By the time of the Dagor Dagorath during the Thirteen Age of the Sun, the world has very much changed. Elves who have become Lingerers regain physical form by possessing mechanical bodies. Dwarves are pioneering complex cyborg technology, and the race of Men with a renewed fever of the old myths have discovered DNA which they believe could have belonged to Fëanor and Túrin and intend to revive them.

Meanwhile, Eärendil, residing on another planet, receives news of the ongoings of Middle-earth, keeping watch for any trouble.

These are all just ideas. :) Any aspect of a futuristic Middle-earth and of the final battle, fought against a very different Middle-earth backdrop, would be much loved!

This needs to be a novel, and I just wanted to say what an awesome prompt it is!

What is says on the tin: Maglor at any point in history, from the Second and Third Ages through prehistory through history through the present day. No specific prompt and can be as light or dark as you prefer; I just don’t want Maglor to die.

This is an amazing prompt. I saw it come through to the mods in your question to Mistress Tanwe but thought it would have been rude to squee over the prompt and not answer the question! :) But ... here it is! So consider me squeeing and handing over a farthing to purchase this one.

I cannot wait to see what you do with this!

I'll pick this up, I think. Time to kick that bunny out the hutch.

Both the prompt and your claiming it are going to be amazing! :D

Eek! I hope it lives up to expectations! I've already got some ideas, one of which involves a favorite character of both of ours ...

There is a modern-day archaeological discovery that ties in with Elves and proves they did exist (in the manner of finding King Tut or Richard III). Of course, there still a few elves still living... somewhere. They're just super-talented at not being noticed. Maybe Elladan and Elrohir chose to be elves but didn't want to leave. Perhaps Thranduil and some of the others didn't want to leave his/their home either. There's always a chance that Gildor and his people decided not to sail at the last minute. (Setting can be writer's choice but suggest using http:// lotr. wikia .com /wiki/Europe as a guide.)

I don't want to take on more prompts than I can chew, so I'm going to sit on my little pile of Farthings until I've written the ones I already snagged, but consider me very interested. :D

I have an 'elves in modern times' outline that is flinging itself against the bars of its cage and howling to be let out.... it's also not a short story so I need to think about this.

Oh what the heck, I'll buy!

Yay! I so want to read this - this is the most awesome prompt. I would consider it myself if it wouldn't breed novel-size plotbunnies I would never manage to write... *g*

During his wanderings in the Second Age or later, Maglor passes by the Doors of Khazad-dûm (it could be before or after the fall of Eregion). What are his thoughts on seeing the Star of Fëanor on the side of a mountain?

Disappointment is highly doubtful in this case!

I am absolutely thrilled at the idea of you doing this one!

Oooh, this is going to be good! I have no doubt that you'll fulfil this one with flying colours!

And I was too slow to nab this one, too. Oh, well...

They allow multiple claims so go ahead and nab it!

When Sam realises both Frodo and Boromir are missing he follows them and saves both of them by braining Boromir - with a frying pan. Go ahead and poke a bit of fun at the D&D concept of 'weapon of choice' - there is absolutely no doubt that Sam's weapon of choice is the frying pan, and really Boromir stands no chance ;)
