B2MeM Prompt, Card and Number: G48
Format: ficlet
Genre: family
Rating: PG
Warnings:
Characters: Legolas, Gimli, OFC elf
Pairings:
Creator’s Notes (optional): In mine and Emma's 'verse, Oropher and his queen Felith lost four children who were "Mandos-born" in the West before finally having Thranduil - Rivaleth, Eluthril, Galadhir and Tatharlas. Eluthril married a descendant of Olwe and learned mapmaking and sailing from her husband. This uses up some more of the G48 prompts for today - I could only claim one, which I already wrote for, but I was inspired by more. I wasn't sure if I was allowed to tag prompts I didn't claim, so perhaps a game of find the prompt is in order, lol?
Summary: Legolas and Gimli arrive in the West.

B2MeM Challenge: Multi-Age: answers to the Tolkien Sarcasm Page 'LOTR Knowledge Test', specifically question 1 ("Just exactly what was the nature of the friendship between Gimli and Legolas?") and question 10 ("When Legolas introduces Gimli to Treebeard, Gimli bows low and his axe falls to the ground. Treebeard notices this, but merely comments "Hoom! A Dwarf and an axe-bearer!" rather than smash Gimli to Play-Doh™. Doubtless you've heard of the poem, "Woodman, Spare That Tree!"; did Tolkien have plans to write another version, titled "Tree, Spare That Woodman!"?")
Format: Poetry
Genre: Fluff, Comedy, Slash
Rating: PG (for suggestiveness)
Warnings: none - well, okay. Allusions to movieverse (Kili/Tauriel).
Characters: Treebeard, Legolas, Gimli
Pairings: Legolas/Gimli
Creators' Notes (optional): My sincere apologies to George Pope Morris.

Title: Water Cold
Author Name: Baranduin

Title: To find a new green
Author Name: elliska
Prompt: "I sit beside the fire and think" -- Bilbo's poem from Fellowship of the Ring, "The Ring Goes South"
Summary: Legolas has one, final favor to ask of Gimli, Elf-Friend.
Rating: General
Warnings: Brief mention of canon deaths
Beta: picara
Author's Notes: This song has always made me cry. I love it, but it makes me cry. And I've always thought it was very applicable to my head-canon for so many characters. Under pressure of time, for this event, I've stuck with the character I know best. But I may eventually make this into a series for the entire Fellowship and for some of the other major characters, like Elrond, Arwen and Celeborn.

Strangely, writing short pieces is extremely difficult for me. I hope this works. :-)
