Format: Short Story
Genre: Fix-it
Rating: General
Warnings: depression
Characters: Faramir, Ioreth, Denethor
Pairings: none
Creator’s Notes (optional): I decided to give Hypericum a different name in this, since neither "Hypericum" nor "St. John's wort" felt like they fit into middle-earth. The "windowed" in the name I gave it refers to the translucent dots in the leaves which are glands containing various oils.

Format: Short Story

Rating: G
Warnings: n/a

Pairings: n/a

Creators' Notes (optional): grey_wonderer submitted the following prompt for the characters of Boromir and Faramir (Denethor optional) -- Boromir preparing to leave for Rivendell for the council, perhaps a discussion between the two brothers? Or two POV's: written from how Boromir sees things then written again with Faramir's POV on events. (and if you want, go a third time through with Denethor's thoughts) Or just write it once in the way that seems best to you. :)

Summary: Boromir and Faramir wrestle with the decision of what is to be done after they both receive a summons by means of a mysterious, riddling dream.

B2MEM Challenge: Young Faramir (5-15) is tired of being second best to his brother. He's tired of being belittled and punished for small things. He's tired of his father not understanding him. He's especially tired of his brother always having to protect him. He runs away. Does he make it out of Gondor? Does he ever come back? What happens to him in the end? If he comes back, why does he? Was it in vain; will anything change? It's all up to you.

Also, alternatively, how does Boromir feel about this? Does he miss his brother? Will he search, and/or obey his father? Will he help Faramir overcome it?

"We are learning to make a fire." (I didn't take this as literally as I might have. But the "fire" of revolution is coming...)

Format: Ficlet
Genre: Family, AU
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Mention of Denethor's madness, kitten cuteness
Characters: Denethor II, Hurin of the Keys (as a child), Gondorian OCs, and a kitten

Creator's Notes: This is the continuation of "Isildurchil Dithen". Chapters Prologue-8 can be found either at AO3 or on this Livejournal, but the end of Chapter Eight is reproduced here to help things along.
Summary: Mallor, the young guard who let Captain Targon escape with young Faramir, was condemned to die by the maddened Steward. But when Captain Haldorn was commanded to execute his nephew - could he perhaps find another way? And with news of Faramir's flight, just how long will Dol Amroth be content to remain removed from the coming storm?

Characters: Aragorn, Gilraen, Ivorwen, Arnorian OCs, Denethor, Hurin, Boromir, a couple Gondorian OCs

Pairings:

Creators' Notes (optional): This takes place at approximately the same time as Chapter Six/Seven. I decided I had better introduce more Arnorian OCs before I got too far along. I also felt I had better begin to resolve what happened to Mallor. (Haldorn is the name of two of my OC's - the Arnorian one was named for the Gondorian one.)

House of Arador:
1. Arathorn m. Gilraen
a. Aragorn m. Arwen

(Faramir's half-sibs won't be born for a while yet)

2. Arneth m. Handoron "Hawkeye"

5. Targon "Ironbow" (15 years older than Aragorn)
a. Bregomir (10)

(Also, "corn-husk", refers to maize's leaves, so as not to confuse my British readers :) )

Summary:
We leave Faramir for a bit (he should be safe in Fangorn for a while, at least) and catch up on what's been going on with Aragorn and Denethor - I know people have been wondering about Denethor and Mallor, particularly...

Maybe I didn't want to think of a title?). I hope seeing those Bingo card prompts again doesn't give anyone bad memories.
