Genre: romance
Rating: teens

Creators' Notes (optional): Many thanks to lignota and kayleelupin for the prompts that sparked this fic. I use the Quenya names: Maglor is Makalaurë and Curufin is Curufinwë.
Summary: Maglor and his wife distract each other.


When the house shuddered with the force of the closing door, Naitë sighed and shut the ledger, looking over at her husband. “Another fight with Curufinwë?”

Makalaurë nodded. “You know full well how he feels about me leading--”

“That you were trained for music, not leadership. Yes, dear, I know. But you have me to help.”

Makalaurë kissed her. “How do the accounts fare?”

“Better than I expected, honestly. Now if only we could guarantee the trade goods we receive from the Úmanyar… Mmm…,” she said as he kissed her neck. “Don’t you dare stop, Makalaurë. The accounts can wait.”

Oh, I like this drabble very much! Yay, you used our prompts! ^_^ *beams*

and silly Curufin, Maglor is a much better regent. :P

Thank you! And thank you again for the prompts. :D

I like Naite. It would be fun to hear more about her sometime... :)

[independence1776]

So do I. At this point in time, though, she's probably joining the one-off OC club. (If I did write her further, I'd have to change her name. My RAFA 'verse version of Maglor's wife also starts with Na. *headdesk*)

I like this very much! It's nice to see such a domestic, warm scene for Maglor, and to be reminded of his wife (which I have to confess I forgot he had as well *blush* ). Love to see her so capable; even if this is just a drabble and a glimpse into their lives, it brings her alive so well.

[independence1776]

Thank you! I think a lot of people forget she exists or even don't know. It's rather an obscure quote.

Lucky Maglor--he's got a wife who helps with the accounts!
And she sounds like a very good choice in other ways, too!

[independence1776]

Yup! And thank you.

Ooooh, I like this, Indy! So Naitë is distinct from Narmincë? Any reason? I ask because the latter holds a special place in my heart from my familiarity with RAFA, but I do like Naitë, too, and would love to read more about her.

[independence1776]

Thank you!

Well, Narmincë never left Aman. And I really don't write in one set 'verse, so there's at least three or four versions of Maglor's wife running around (I'd have to count). I basically needed a version who left Aman for this fic and she popped up. I'm not opposed to writing more about her, but like I told Huin, she's currently a one-off.

Oh, a very nice homely sort of story, this, and most romantic! Like this wife of his!

[independence1776]

Thank you!

Oh, I'm glad you ended up writing it! I like this version of Maglor's wife. I know you said she was probably a one-off, but I'd still be interested in learning more about her if you ever feel inspired.

[independence1776]

Thank you! Who knows; maybe I will be. :)

[nialoke]

Aw, how sweet :3 It's good they have each other in such a difficult time.

[independence1776]

Thank you!
