A little something feat. Finrod & Curufin for @ardaneedsmorepride - January

CREDITS (Read on AO3)

Finrod isn’t certain who of them begins it – surely, he’d like to take the credit, but it’s as likely that it has been Curufin. Most likely it has been Curufin. Regardless, Finrod pretends it’s not so.

“So?” Curufin whispers, breath ghosting along Finrod’s skin.

Finrod finds it worth noting that Curufin’s voice doesn’t spark icicles anymore, and for that fact he entirely takes the credit for. Curufin hates it and yet he’s like wax in Finrod’s hands when they are like this. It’s admirable – or so Finrod thinks, not caring if Curufin deems it an outrageous tale.

“So what?” Finrod says, smiling that smile that’s reserved for Curufin.

It hasn’t been always like that. But it’s worth noting that more often than not it’s like this in the twilight court of Nargothrond.

Curufin tilts his head up and gives Finrod a hopeless look; just that the look isn’t hopeless at all, challenge lingering underneath it. The results if he accepts vary, but it’s always a success regardless.

“So it has come to my attention, that of late Nargothrond’s king cherishes variety,” Curufin says, leaning up to kiss him. To Finrod, feeling those lips part just for him is utter bliss.

“Pray tell,” Finrod coos, amused sentiment echoing in his voice. “Where has my cousin heard such gossip from?”

Finrod’s own reputation regarding his sexuality doesn’t concern him at the slightest; everyone in Nargothrond knows about their dalliance – and regardless of the disapproval no-one ever speaks about it.

There’s little love for the sons of Fëanor in Nargothrond, and perhaps too much of it in Finrod’s heart.

Arda Needs More Pride

I’ve really been wanting to participate in @ardaneedsmorepride​, but jetlag and school ate up my time for something new, so this time I’ll go the SSP road and throw some of my older fics at the internet. 

First Age

In His Absence (Maedhros/Fingon/Fingon’s Wife | M/M/F, poly, rated M) Summary: After the Nirnaeth Arnoediad and its losses, two desperately lonely people find comfort with each other. 

Second Age

The Old Maid’s Tale (Tar-Míriel/OFC | F/F, ace pairing, rated T, brief mentions of rape, violence and internalized issues) Summary: Tar-Míriel takes on a new handmaiden, and tells her part in the history of Númenor.

Third Age

Down by the Hallowed Pool (Goldberry/Lady of the Blue Brooch | F/F, rated M) Summary: After rescuing the Hobbits from the Barrow-downs, Tom Bombadil takes a blue brooch from the pile of barrow-treasures to bring to Goldberry, reminiscing about its bearer. This is her story.

Fourth Age

Sunlight Free the Heart (Arwen/Arien | F/F and background F/M, rated T, non-graphic character death) Summary: Arwen at the end of her days. Arien will have none of it.
