Káno, who had been in the middle of playing a dramatic nocturne on the piano, turned to see the Ambarussa behind him—holding a plate of exquisite pastries.
Káno’s mouth watered. He snatched a few scones and stuffed them in his mouth. They were both sweet and soft. He savored every bite.
“Pityo, Telvo, your cooking will never fail to impress me,” Káno exclaimed, licking the crumbs off his fingers. “It surpasses even Ammë’s!”
Pityo grinned. “Thank you, hanno!”
Telvo frowned, glancing at the piano. “When was the last time you ate?”
Káno didn’t answer that.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"We made some scones!”
Maglor, who had been in the middle of composing another depressing stanza of the Nolodantë, turned to see Elrond and Elros behind him—holding a plate of exquisite pastries.
“These look wonderful, you two!” Maglor said. His eyes narrowed. “We’re on rations. Where did you get sugar?”
“Atto took care of it,” Elros said impatiently. “Come on, just try one!” he exclaimed.
Maglor laughed and took one.
He ate it.
The twins looked at him eagerly.
“Pityo, Telvo, this tastes wonderful!” Káno exclaimed.

Warnings: none, all fluff
Words: 1.4k
Synopsis: A soft moment shared between you and Amras amidst the hectic life.
Prompt: “Dandelions? I thought they were a weed?”
The gentle winds were blowing through the room, ruffling the curtains, and sending pieces of your loose hair strands flying across your face. With your mouth wide open, lightly snoring and your hair covering your face, your husband who was up at the time, was admiring your sleeping form and thought you to be the most beautiful person in the world. Leaning in closer, doing his best not to wake you, he moved a few hair strands so he could kiss your forehead.
As his lips came in contact with your forehead, you grumbled slightly and shifted to roll over onto the next side, now facing away from him. Smiling to himself, he shook his head while rolling on the bed and made his way over to the door to go to the kitchen. Rubbing the sleep out of his eyes before he entered the kitchen, Amras yawned before he turned to the cabinet to gather the necessary ingredients to make you both breakfast.
Standing bareback in the kitchen, whisking away at the batter for the pancakes, he placed the bowl down to remove the eggs and sausages from the pan, he removed the pan to clean before using it for the pancakes. It didn’t take him long before the pancakes were finished, all he needed to do was wait for the muffins to leave the oven and breakfast was ready to be served. In the meantime, a smile graced his face as he remembered something to help brighten your day.
It wasn’t long before he finished his assignment and returned to the kitchen, holding a bouquet of flowers. Walking to the wares stand he picked two plates to place your food in while grabbing the jug filled with apple juice, to rest on the tray. After he had set the dishes on the tray, the muffins were ready to be removed from the oven.
Taking the tray and making his way back to your shared room, he noticed that your position changed, and you were now sprawled out in the middle of the bed, facing down. Placing the tray on the nightstand, he gauged your state before walking over to the windows and pulling the curtains apart, allowing for more light to evade the room. A loud groan was heard as the curtains parted, and turning his head to follow the sound, he saw you wriggling your body under the sheets and sticking your head under the pillow.
You weren’t much of a morning person. He knew this and still to your displeasure, he took the greatest pleasure in all the different ways he could wake you up, most of the time light was involved. If he wasn’t your husband, you would have taken him down for disrupting your sleep. Your sleep was important to you and you treasured it with all your heart, so currently you felt as though you were going to combust at the fact that it was interrupted.
During your grumbling and fussing, Amras stood there with his hands clutching his stomach doubling over while the other was covering his mouth stifling his laughter. Your reaction was golden. No matter how early or how late you went to sleep, no amount of sleep was enough. However, it was already one in the afternoon, and the morning was already over. It was way past time to eat, so you needed to get up.
Still laughing at your sleeping state, this time out loud, he climbed into the bed next to you and peeled back the sheets to reveal your head, “Love, it’s time to wake up. I made breakfast, well, lunch?”
Your hand shot out from under the sheets to cover his mouth, Unsuccessfully, you took a while before approaching his mouth, instead, his body received multiple slaps in the process as your hand travelled up to meet his mouth. He sat there taking in all the hits until your hand finally reached his mouth. He realized that talking wasn’t doing anything, so he moved his hands to travel under the sheets to tickle at your sides. You retaliated by hitting him some more while inching away from his fingers. His tickling was relentless, and he refused to let you return to sleep.
Determined to wake you out of your slumber, he crawled off the bed, moving over to the foot of the bed making you feel as though he had given up and decided to leave you alone. In reality, he was holding the sheets, ready to rip them off your body to get you up. Doing a countdown before taking it off, he laughed as he reached one and ripped the coverings off you, forcing you to shoot out of bed, fists balled up and ready to fight.
“Finally, sleeping beauty has arisen from slumber,” he spoke with a bright smile appearing on his face, happy with the outcome of his actions.
“Amras, come on,” you were kicking your feet, throwing a tantrum.
“I made breakfast, lunch, whatever you want to call it. Come on, you can’t let it get cold, plus I got you flowers,” he urged you to sit up properly so you two could eat.
“I want to sleep,” you were whining at him, still kicking your feet about the bed.
Sighing at your little tantrum, he quickly came up with a deal, “How about this,” he climbed on the bed to sit next to you, “we eat the food I made and then we, I mean you go back to sleep, though it’s already afternoon and I don’t understand why you still need sleep.”
Eyeing him suspiciously, you frowned. “You promise?”
“Promise.” He flashed a smile. “Now come, let us eat!”
“What did you make for us to eat?” you yawned as you forced your body to roll to the cool side of the bed.
“Pancakes, eggs, sausages, muffins, the usual, and I got you some flowers. Dandelions, because they remind me of you.” Getting up to retrieve the tray, he came back to sit at the head of the bed where you moved to lay next to him, snuggling him in the process. “Hey, you have to sit up, you can’t eat like that.”
“Dandelions? Aren’t those weeds? I remind you weeds?” you teased as you pressed your body deeper into his sides, ignoring his protests. “Oh Pityo, how romantic. At least you picked me first, get it?”
Torn between wanting to laugh and being exasperated by your antics, he shook his head with a playful roll of his eyes as he reached for the glass of apple juice and brought it to your lips. He fed you while you cuddled him and made small talk as the meal depleted. From conversing about what activities to partake in during your time off, to how much sleep was enough for you, you two spoke about everything before sleepiness returned to you.
“You should feed me like this more often,” you mumbled sleepily after he finished feeding you. “Make sure your little weed grows to be the toughest one of them all.”
“You aren’t planning on letting that go, are you?” he replied as he slid the tray onto the table before adjusting his body comfortably beside yours. His fingers grazed your back, dancing along the curve and tracing random patterns that lulled you to sleep faster.
“How,” –you yawned– “could I? I’m your favourite little flower you would always pick first.”
Feeling his heart melting as you spoke tenderly, he took in your sleepy figure; lashes fluttering as you fought against the sleep, head going slump, lips parted as soft snores escaped and body relaxed. It was a sight that could not get any better. He was indeed pleased to have picked you first since you were his first love. Nuzzling his nose against yours and following up with a kiss, he softly whispered, “You’re the only flower I’d ever pick.”
Request: Hiiii!! I was thinking for Halloween requests, I thought maybe something sweet with the Ambarussa about pumpkin carving ? Either them being introduced to it or us all being ecstatic that it’s finally autumn since the pumpkins have grown and we can finally carve them with funny/spooky faces? - @nerdyely
* * *
You set down the last pumpkin on the table with a heavy thud, one that made the table shake slightly under the weight of the gourd. This year, you had spent time cultivating the pumpkins where they’d grow large enough you could make jack-o-lanterns out of them. A custom that was innately human and not something the elves really took part in.
You wondered if they ever even noticed the seasons passing them by unless it was cold or hot. Lost in your thoughts you turned from the table and to the box of different tools that you had, looking for serrated blades of different sizes so you could carve the pumpkins as you desired. Hearing the sound of the cabin door open and knowing the twins had entered and quickly you were subjected to their curiosity.
Amrod coming over to look over your shoulder to see what you were doing, and out of the corner of your eyes you could see Amras looking the three pumpkins over. Scratching his head, surely with confusion as he looked at them.
“I think three pumpkins is a bit much for dinner…” He said to you, leaving you to laugh out in response as Amrod moved to examine and try to piece together what it was you were trying to do.
“We are not eating them, we are carving them.” You explained to him, setting your knives and spoons down on the table standing in between the twins. Both furrowing their brows at your words and with a frown on their face.
“What for?” Amrod spoke up this time, looking down at you as you casually set the knives out on the table around the pumpkins. Dividing the tools up evenly so everyone would have what they needed, you even had rags set out to wipe hands and bowls for pumpkin guts.
“To ward off the evil spirits that come on Hallows Eve!” You explained it so casually, yet Amrod and Amras merely looked between each other. Even though they were so accustomed to your company and your human behaviors, there were still some customs that caught them off guard every now and again. This was certainly one of those times as surely carved pumpkins couldn’t be the answer to warding off evil spirits.
“That is… quite the custom.” You heard Amras mutter out, and you turned to face him as he watched you intensely.
“Is that why the village sets out pumpkins?” Amrod asked in return, and you smiled with an excited nod! Clasping your hands together for a moment,
“Yes! Now sit! I will need your help! The cabin will need pumpkins this season.” You said, pushing them both to take their seats at the table, both apprehensively obliging you and taking their places in their seats and you standing at the head of the table. Both ellons watched with wide eyes as you grabbed a large knife and worked on cutting into the top of the pumpkin.
“First! We have to cut the top of the pumpkin off so we can scoop out the insides.” You began explaining to them, struggling with the knife as it jaggedly cut into the tough pumpkin skin. Sawing into it with the serrated blade, with Amrod reaching over to steady your pumpkin while you cut into it.
“Are you sure this is a good idea? Maybe we should cut into yours for you.” Amras said moving to stand out of his chair, but you paused in your sawing holding your hand out.
“I’ve got it! I’ve done this plenty of times before.” You assured him before going back to vigorously sawing the top of the pumpkin. Amras merely sat down and began to pick up his own blade and working far more easily and efficiently than you were.
You finally got the lid off the top of the pumpkin and Amrod began to cut into his, as Amras too was finishing up with the lid of his. You waited for Amrod seeing how carefully he was cutting into his before removing the top and setting it aside. Both watching you reach for a spoon to scoop out the seeds from the inside, and both ellons following your lead.
“You do this every year in your village?” Amrod asked you as he rolled up his sleeves and beginning to scoop out the pumpkin, with Amras diving in with just his hands. Slapping the material into the bowl in the center of the table. You nodded at his words as you worked,
“Yes! We usually begin around this time of year along with a few other things for Hallow’s Eve.” You smiled to him, watching as Amrod scooped another big spoonful out of his pumpkin at the same time Amras did. Only for Amras to slap the contents on Amrods hand, making the ellon shudder and shake off his hand with disgust on his face.
“Oh come now Amrod! You do not react in such a way when gutting a deer!” Amras laughed at his brother's reaction, leaving his twin to frown in response. Amras’ laughter was infectious, leaving you to laugh along with him, scooping out more pumpkin insides.
“Anyways,” Amrod began emphasizing his word, with a small glare to his brother in response,
“What other customs do you participate in?” He asked, while you still chuckled along, deciding to finish out your pumpkin with your hands as it was mostly cleared out.
“Well we wear masks or nice clothes and usually gather together and celebrate.” You began warmly, looking to the bowl that was growing to be piled high with pumpkin guts.
“That would explain what we came in on last year in the village.” Amrod said bluntly, and you smiled over at him with your brows raised. You could only assume how foreign it must have looked to them,
“What do you propose we do with all the extra seeds? We certainly do not need that many growing out in the garden next year.” Amras asked you, grabbing a rag to wipe off his hand just as Amrod stood to double check the inside of his gourd to make sure it had been sufficiently cleaned out.
“We can always bake them? It is what mother did with them.” You answered them thinking back on fond memories of doing this with your parents and siblings. Before he could answer, Amrod spoke up;
“The pumpkins are cleaned out, now what?”
“We draw faces on them and carve out the faces!” You explained reaching for a knife, not really needing a drawing in place having so much experience doing this.
“Does it need to be anything in particular?” Amrod asked you,
“A scary one, so it will ward off the malevolent spirits.”
“Ah at that rate I shall carve Amrod’s likeness for he is scary enough.” Amras cackled out reaching for a piece of charcoal to begin working on his pumpkin, leaving you to laugh out in response. You looked to the twin who frowned heavily huffing with a sigh,
“At least I will not need a mask to hide how frightening my face is at this gathering!” Amrod retorted, a smirk finding his lips at his rebuttal in satisfaction as Amras looked up from his pumpkin flabbergasted. While you worked on carving away with the two bickering at each other. Leaving you to laugh at their words.
“We will see which one the villagers run frightened from come the gathering.” Amras grumbled out angrily, sketching forcefully on his pumpkin and looking away from Amrod. While Amrod began to look over your shoulder, watching you carve out simple triangles for what he could only assume were eyes. A jagged toothy grin was next on your mental list, but you looked to Amrod instead,
“Does it not need to be intricate? What are the shapes for?” He pressed practically resting his head on your shoulder to stay leaned over.
“No it doesn’t need to be intricate, but the triangles are eyes and then I am going to do a big jagged mouth.” You explained to him, while Amras scoffed,
“So I don’t have to carve out all of Amrod’s ugliness?” He asked peering over his pumpkin with a brow raised, Amrod frowned deeply at his words. Standing and grabbing the heavily bowl of pumpkin guts and dumping it all back into Amras’ pumpkin. Leaving him to cry out in protest!
“I just cleaned this out!!” He yelled jumping up from his spot as guts over filled the pumpkin and onto his clothes and table, with a heavy huff you watched as Amras went right back to scooping out the pumpkin. Again. Laughing at him as you watched,
“I am going to get you back for this.” He muttered harshly under his breath, while Amrod simply smirked and sat back down to begin drawing on his pumpkin. You caught your breath finally between the laughs and went back to carving focusing on the mouth. The three of you working in silence, with the sound of scooping and carving filling the room.
Everyone attentive to the project at hand before you set your knife down and looked over your pumpkin in decision about if you should add anything. There were soft mutters of frustration from both of your carving partners, neither seemingly satisfied with what they were doing. You wondered if they were struggling carving out negative space.
“Alright I think I am finished.” You said definitively and standing up to fetch a few candles for your pumpkins, while neither ellon seemed to be broken from their trance like state. You disappeared from their sight, digging through the drawers in search of them before finally landing on short enough tapered candles that would fit in them.
When you came back out both were holding their pumpkins facing one another and seemingly critiquing each work in silence. But both trying to hold in their amusement,
“Well? Let me see?” You said with a smile, candles in hand, before they turned their pumpkins towards you and both had just a collection of holes and no real face to it. You could not contain your laughter, as you were correct in your assumption that they had struggled with it. The two snickering alongside you. Perhaps you hadn’t been that great of an instructor.
“I do think ours are missing faces.” Amras piped up, though he still looked quite proud of the square and round holes in his pumpkin.
“Let us see yours!” Amrod said curiously, and with that you turned the pumpkin around to face them. Triangular eyes looked back at them with a wide malicious and sharp looking smile with rows of teeth. Both unable to contain their surprise and impressed by what you had accomplished.
“Fix mine, please?” Amrod was the first to pipe up, setting his pumpkin next to yours, and you nodded.
“How about you Amras? Shall I fix yours too?” You asked beginning to pick up your little knife, but he shook his head.
“No I like it like this.” He chuckled to you, and you nodded. You supposed two pumpkins would be enough to keep the spirits at bay. You began to carve out space making sharp and pointed teeth and menacing looking eyes. With Amrod right over your shoulder watching you intently.
Amras on the other hand was in the business of trying to set up his candle, but instead searching for candle holders that could be spared for the inside. By the time he got back in his search you had finished,
“You are good at this.” Amras said approaching you both and setting the candle holders down on the table.
“Thank you, now lets put our candles in them and set them outside.” You smiled grabbing one of the holders, deciding to take the easier route and placing candles inside. The three of you carrying pumpkins out to the front of the cabin where you arranged them all side by side. Deciding to place Amras’ pumpkin between yours and Amrods- seeing as it would scare nothing off.
“There!” You said backing away to look it over happily, both brothers satisfied with what they had done.
“Perfect, spirits will certainly stay away now. Now lets go cook those seeds.” Amras said just as quickly walking indoors. You simply laughed and followed right behind him, ready to show them the other ways that you celebrated Hallows Eve.
𑁍 He’s a lot quieter than his older twin and all of his brothers, though it doesn’t stop his mischievous behaviour from taking place. He loves a good prank and most of the time, you’re a victim. It’s nothing serious though.
𑁍 All the harmful pranks are for his brothers, the most he’ll do he drop water and flour all over you, you’re in the safe zone.
𑁍 As mentioned for Amrod, Amras also believes that you should get along with his brother fairly. This also means that like Amras, Amrod will tag along secretly for a lot of your dates.
𑁍 He’ll just be casually sitting somewhere near you two as though he wasn’t stalking you guys for the past hour and a half. He’ll wear a cheeky grin on his face before asking if he could sit with you all.
𑁍 He enjoys pranking alongside you and because of this, he includes you in his prank wars with his brothers.
𑁍 He’s a lot more relaxed with physical affection but similar to his brother, he prefers to have it done behind closed doors. He doesn’t mind the occasional kiss in public, but it’ll be done chastely on the lips or on the forehead. He does enjoy having his arms wrapped around you though.
𑁍 He enjoys going on dates with you that are peaceful and quiet, this means he’ll lock his brother in a room to avoid him following and ruining the peace with you.
𑁍 He’ll take you to a field of flowers or a waterfall for a picnic and just sit next to you subtly chatting away. This does lead to him taking a small nap with you.
𑁍 Hunting with him doesn’t happen since he tends to go with his brothers for the company and he doesn’t want you around them, he’s afraid of them corrupting you, so, he keeps you away as far as possible.
𑁍 Between him and his twin, he’s the better cook. He used to hang around Caranthir more than his brother, so he was able to pick up some tips and reciprocate them for you.
𑁍 Since he’s the quiet twin, it also means he’s shy, so things that require public displays make him shrink and hide. He’s not one for public displays of affection, holding your hand is enough.
𑁍 When in private, he’ll bask you in all the kisses and hugs you want. When you do return them to him, he gets squeamish and blushes a lot.

postAngband!Maedhros - Acts of Service, Quality Time, Words of Affirmation
After his time in Angband, Maedhros’ love languages are going to have changed considerably. Physical Touch no longer being one of his main love languages, this doesn’t mean he won’t indulge you if that’s your love language. It just means he’s going to show his love for you differently.
Which he feels he does best by Acts of Service, Maedhros prefers doing for you and you for him. If there’s anything you need at all of him, basic tasks such as picking up a few things, or taking something to the seamstress, or writing a letter for you he will do so without complaint.

It leaves Maedhros feeling reassured where he needs it, and loved as well.

Amrod - Quality Time, Acts of Service, Physical Touch

It instills some serious confidence in him, as well as just fills him with adoration and love for you.
Amras is pretty simple in making him feel loved, just by indulging him in his own love languages is enough for him.

- The moment that the Kinslaying happens, it becomes very apparent to the Feanorians that there will be a lot of loss, including the possibility of it happening amongst them. If anything they would have been very insistent that you stay behind with your amille.
- But when you grow insistent to follow them to Arda, they do little to stop you but do their best to try and protect you from all the physical danger that they can.
- When you lose your Atar, you and your brothers take the lose very hard, even if he had descended into madness. It didn’t take away from all the great things he had done for all of you.
- While your brothers do little to comfort each other- with the exception of possibly Maglor and the twins- most will do their best to comfort you. Especially if you’re taking it extremely hard.
- Each brother indulging you with comforting words, or jokes, or reminiscing. Or if its too much for you to handle with speaking on it, Maglor, Maitimo and the twins will be happy to hug and hold you while you cry.
- Come the 2nd Kinslaying, you’ll certainly lose more than you had ever lost before.
- Losing 5 out of your 7 brothers, while the loss is nothing new as you had lost your uncle and cousins as well, it still comes as a hard hit.
- By this point Maedhros and Maglor both struggle to find how to comfort you, knowing that the loss is only probably going to continue until you are left alone and by yourself.
- Though Maglor certainly doesn’t deny you the physical comfort when you come looking for it, happy to hug you close to him.
- Though his once affectionate and reassuring words no longer are there, nor is the reminiscing and joking. The gravity of the situation weighing heavily on the three of you.
- Maedhros will find ways to spend time with you even in his silence, since Angband his affection will have decreased, but he will still take the time to be with you if he knows it will help.
- Both at this point entirely unsure what you even think about what they had done and what they can even do to try and bring comfort.
- By the time it comes to the War of Wrath and you hear your brothers make mention of leaving you and the twins, you know without them even having to say it that it’s the last time that you will see them.
- It is then you and the twins find solace in one another, and with you heavily debating about going to stay with the rest of your family or sticking with one of the twins.
- Either way in the end, you are left to cope with the your numerous losses, leaving you to weakly hope that you will not lose the rest of your family and who you consider to be family.
