@sindarweek Day Seven: The Second King of Doriath

Dior. I meant for him to have *more* of a shirt, but then I went a bit crazy with The Nauglamír and didn't have the heart to distract from it. I spent so long on it.

I spent a month and a week desperately trying to finish 16 pieces of art and I managed. The rest of the month might be kind of quiet from me, but I have even more fandom weeks in October and November I'm interested in. So, there will probably be more soon.

Sam by Maia O. Tolkien's "chief hero", a gardener. The one who grows, tends, nurtures. It's too perfect 😭😭😭

‘Curufin got burns on his arms from holding onto Fëanor as he fucking exploded’ is a revolutionary god tier idea that I am subscribing to for the rest of my life

Happy Friday, Fellowship! 💛

Fic recs are the best way to help promote someone else’s works! Find some of your favorite fics, they could be WIPs, completed, old, new, whatever you want to share, and rec at least (1) of them for us and your followers to see! Who knows, it might just be the fic someone out there is looking for!

Bonus: tag the author (if possible) and share with us why you are recommending this fic!

I haven’t made a rec list in a while even though I’ve been enjoying some real gems recently. Let’s fix that!

What of Us Remains by Anonymous (Unrated, Gimli/Legolas, 500 words). Why, I do like getting my heart broken into tiny little pieces, thank you for asking! *sobbing*

Fingon gets sold by Anonymous (T, Gen, 1,010 words). On the polar opposite end of the Angst-Haha spectrum, this is such a hilarious twist on the classic Sold to One Direction trope. In this case, Fingon gets sold to the Fëanorians.

The Coda of Lasgalen by @belladonna-nights (E, Thranduil/Thranduil’s Wife, WIP). I always look forward to this one’s updates. It’s so well-written and I’m enjoying the worldbuilding and OCs.

Unquiet Waters by @gondolindon (G, Gen, 787 words). Delightful necromancer!Sauron, sentient nature, and a horrifying development for poor Oropher. Need I say more?

On a Night of Snow by Elleth (E, Fingon/Fingon’s Wife/Maedhros, 3,921 words). Fingon deserves to be pampered (and to be the filling in that sandwich). He has more than earned it!

[fellshish]

a lot of fic rec lists focus heavily on long fics but here’s a shoutout to short fics they give so much snack-size joy i hate how writing short form is sometimes looked down upon it has its own challenges and deserves so much more respect and love because a well executed short fic can ruin your life in 20 minutes

Maedhros still bloody from the first kinslaying when he sees Maglor already composing the first draft for the Noldolantë

[queeranddepraved]

I have one kink and it's not a good idea.
