b2memB2MeM Prompt and Category:
Initial prompt no. 11: The song of Fingon Elves yet sing,
Genre: family, friendship
Rating: PG
Warnings: Reference to canon threat of violence;
Characters: Fingon, Maedhros
Pairings: Fingon/Maedhros (pre-slash or bromance)
Creator’s Notes: Sneaking this into B2MeM by means of a "creative" take on the B2MeM prompts. This drabble incorporates three Tolkien Weekly prompts and is dedicated to Ziggy.
Summary: They had found each other easy to talk to. But then...
He loved to hear his cousin speak. When Maitimo pulled down a book from the shelves and began to explain, their world seemed to gain depth, sing in subtler shades of colour. It was even better when Findekano discovered he could answer. Maitimo would listen patiently, as he spoke, and help unravel his thought.
Maitimo was not just family but a friend. They drew together, exchanging whispered comments and support, when routine was boring or when another crisis hit.
Then Feanor’s sword touched Fingolfin’s throat. Maitimo and Findekano cried out in a single voice, exchanged glances and found themselves divided.
A/N: Quenya names: Maitimo=Maedhros, Findekano=Fingon. References the fanon that Maedhros used to be Fingon's teacher.
Initial prompt no. 11: The song of Fingon Elves yet sing,
captain of armies, Gnomish king,
who fell at last in flame of swords
with his white banners and his lords.
(The Lay of Leithian)
Daily prompt March 3:
And the music and the echo of the music went out into the Void, and it was not void. Never since have the Ainur made any music like to this music, though it has been said that a greater still shall be made before Ilúvatar by the choirs of the Ainur and the Children of Ilúvatar after the end of days. (The Silmarillion, “Ainulindale”)
