I kudos'd this over on AO3 but would like to express my admiration here as well! I have such a weakness for Feanor/Fingolfin and this was such a lush and gorgeous twisted-up mess of emotion - so perfect for them!

Thank you so much! I'm glad to hear that you liked it! This is my first time trying my hand at Fëanor/Fingolfin, ans I was a little nervous about getting it right.
