B2MeM Challenge: OC Storytelling: A canon character tells a story about an original character. Any setting, any rating.

B2MeM Challenge: Tar-Vanimelde was the third ruling Queen of Númenor, but was more inclined toward the arts of music and dancing than toward matters of state - but who was she as a person? Did she leave the de-facto rule to her husband because was aware of her shortcomings as a politician and decided to focus on her talents, or did she rely on her royalty to be able to live the life she wanted rather than assume responsibility? Something else entirely? --

Warnings: One instance of strong language (in Quenya). Discussion of casual violence and homophobia.
Characters: Fingon, OC

B2MeM Challenge: Judgement

“For in the days of the sojourn of Sauron in that land the hearts of well nigh all its people had been turned towards darkness. Therefore many of those who sailed east in that time and made fortresses and dwellings upon the coasts were already bent to his will, and they served him still gladly in Middle-earth. But because of the power of Gil-galad these renegades, lords both mighty and evil, for the most part took up their abodes in the southlands far away; yet two there were, Herumor and Fuinur, who rose to power among the Haradrim, a great and cruel people that dwelt in the wide lands south of Mordor beyond the mouths of Anduin.”
Format: short story
Genre: friendship, politics
Rating: PG
Warnings: none
Characters: Aragorn, Faramir, OMCs
Pairings: none
Summary: Accusations are made against Ambassador Tahir.
