Warnings: Some upsetting content, mentions of death (animal and human), and suicidal ideation.
Characters: OFC (Elendil's unnamed wife), Elendil
Pairings: Elendil and his wife, technically, but it's not exactly at the forefront.
Creator’s Notes (optional): I've been meaning to write this story ever since I saw James Turner Mohan's sketch "Out of the Sea I am Come". B2MeM finally gave me the impetus to do so. Also written with the "Hidden Figures" challenge and Legendarium Ladies' April in mind, inspired specifically by an old prompt from 2017, Shipwreck on the Rossbeigh Beach by Eric70. Also also vaguely inspired by Peter Gabriel's song Here Comes The Flood.
Oof, that's a lot of preamble for a short story.
Summary: Vëandis, formerly Lady of Andúnië, has been shipwrecked in Middle-earth. Now she and the other survivors of the Downfall have to find the strength to carry on.

B2MeM Prompt, Card and Number: G50, Echoes in the Water, Talents and Skills, Language of Flowers, Snippets of Verse
Format: ficlet, missing scene
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...

Format: chaptered story, though it could probably be read on its own.
Genre: drama, family, romance

Pairings: Merry/Estella, Pippin/Diamond (in later chapters)

Format: Double drabble (200 words)
Genre: drama
Rating: Teen
Warnings: None
Characters: Maedhros, Maglor, Fingon
Pairings: Maedhros/Fingon
Creator’s Notes (optional): I've always thought the scene of Maedhros standing aside as the ships burned and Fingon on the other side, watching them burn, would make an amazing Disney song -- split screen, a lot of singing about feelings. This is the sad come down after the musical number.
Summary: At the sight of something terrible, Maedhros watches.
