Genre: drama, family
Rating: PG-13 for mention of offscreen Kinslaying
Warnings:
Characters: Celeborn, Galadriel
Pairings: Celeborn/Galadriel
Creator’s Notes (optional): This is essentially a "missing scene" from my best friend/usual co-author AfricanDaisy's "With Joyful Ring". OCs are ours. https://archiveofourown.org/works/16915254/chapters/39741054 She has given me permission to post this story (my gift to her) and to link hers. In brief, Oropher and his brother Vehiron are the sons of Celeborn's first cousin Celepharn, who died in the Fall of Doriath. Felith is Oropher's future wife and Thranduil's mother, but at this point she is a commoner, a weaver, and her grandfather's ward; he doesn't approve of Lord Oropher trying to court her.
Summary: After dealing with Oropher and Vehiron's misbehaviour and grief, and hearing Oropher's anger at Master Alfirindir out, Celeborn goes for a walk on the beach to collect his thoughts. But he's not as alone as he thinks, and the Lord of the Sindar doesn't have to be strong for everyone...

Warnings: N/A
Characters: N/A

Creator’s Notes: Some of these songs fit better, or in different ways than others. I had a hard time finding too many pertaining to a topic as specific as sea-longing, so there is some discrepancy in various songs’ obvious relevance.

The tracklist with occasional notes is under the cut!

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
Warnings: mentions of activity of a sexual nature, more obvious than I've ever written before but not full on sexual encounters
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.
