Fanfic Masterpost

Hello! I go by theScrap_Witch on AO3. I used to have all my fics listed here, but that became way too long and messy, so I've decided to reorganize things.

If you are looking for some Silmarillion fics, mine can be found here. (there are many!) Personal highlights include:

Maglor is an Eldritch Horror (my cozy horror AU series)

Reforged (my Maeglin lives AU)

Terrible Decisions (my Silvergifting timetravel AU series)

The Trial of Crablor Fëanorion (crab vs Valinor court of law)

Wayward Son (Fëanor sails to bring Maglor home)

The Stars Thy Witness (my Extra Sad Silmarillion AU series)

From Ruins We Grow (Fëanor gets therapy through gardening)

My Beleriand hand embroidered map can be found here or by using the tag #beleriand embroidery project

My Númenor hand embroidered map can be found here or by using the tag #numenor embroidery project

If you are looking for some Linked Universe fics, mine can be found here.

I have a Four Swords/Tri Force Heroes Murder Mystery fic (narrated by ghost!Vio) which can be found here.

Thank you so much for reading! :)

9? ;)

Thank you!

9. tell us about a wip/idea that you're excited about!

One WIP I’m working on is Home from the Sea, where Maglor has been completely reborn and living with a new family, and Maedhros (and the rest of the Feanorians) have to come to terms with that. Featuring: cute baby Maglor, a five year old girl always ready to fight the entire world, a single dad who has not slept in weeks, Maedhros absolutely not being jealous that his role of ‘Maglor’s favourite older sibling’ has been taken from him, and bears.

I’m not sure how long it will be yet, but it's a very fun situation to throw Maedhros’ POV into.

Here’s a snippet: Reborn, with new parents, a new name, a new older sibling who glares at Maedhros. A tiny, brown haired girl with a riot of curls and a short, stubby nose. She makes Maedhros think of a bear cub, too much fluff to be truly fierce.

“Mine,” she says, lifting baby Kano up into her arms. Somehow, the weight doesn’t knock her off her feet. Tiny Kano babbles, drooling onto her sleeves, clearly happy to be held.

Clearly adoring his new older sibling.

Maedhros smiles. Bites down jealousy, bitter and sickening, that rises in his throat like bile. “He was mine first.”

4, 13?

Thank you!

is there an au or trope that you haven't written before, but would want to try?

It would be really fun to write a sort of scifi/cyberpunk AU for the Silmarilion (this probably comes from playing too much Shadowrun when I was younger…). There’s an idea that’s been rumbling in my head for ages: basically the Feanorians are an ex-crime family who have done their time and are trying to reform and then they find out that Celebrimbor has been kidnapped by Morgoth/Sauron and thus have to plan a heist to get him back. I feel like I could have a lot of fun with it.

do you have any writing projects/goals/plans you're working on/want to work on?

SO MANY!

My WIP list is endless and I will never be free. I’m hoping this summer to get some of my current longfics done, as my rule is I cannot have more than three on-going ones (otherwise I would start too many and then quickly get overwhelmed by them all). I’m currently trying to get my (very late I am so sorry) fic for the Silmarillion Epistolary Week done, titled The Last Monster of Middle Earth, and then I really want to get the next chapter of Oh Sing, Defiant Stars done. And the next fic in my The Stars Thy Witness series! So many fics, so little time...

In the Waning of Years

A double drabble written for SWG's 6/6/2026 instadrabble session using the prompt green, gems, sunlight, idle. Also on AO3.

“You will leave me, soon.”

Felagund speaks with the quiet weight of certainty, with grief borrowed from a future that draws ever nearer. He strokes Bëor’s hair and lets a silver lock curl around his finger. Bëor turns his face to kiss Felagund’s warm palm.

His Felagund; hale and young and yet older than comprehension, with eyes that glitter like pale jewels. Beautiful beyond anything within the circles of this world. In this stolen moment of idle quiet, with dappled sunlight filtering down through a canopy of verdant trees above, his unbound hair is of spun gold.

It has been decades since Bëor was a young man. His joints ache now more often than they do not, and his hand, when Felagund takes it in his own, is wrinkled and marked with a lifetime’s worth of scars. “Soon,” he agrees, for there is no use in denying it. He has already been given far longer than most.

Though Felagund’s smile does not reach his eyes, underneath his grief lies quiet acceptance. His hand in Bëor’s is light and unpossessive; when the time comes, he will let him go.

Bëor squeezes tightly. “But a little time is left to us yet.”

Title: Bright Kindly Letters

Rating: G

Summary: An unexpected letter during his lonely exile leads Maglor to correspond with his young cousin Celebrian who has many questions for him about their family alongside a secret plan of her own.

Chapter: 5/?

A/N: Written for Silmarillion Epistolary Week 2026

Dear Celebrian,

For once I don’t know what to say.

I have read your letter what feels like a hundred times since I received it, and I still cannot find words.

You are correct, I did eventually come to suspect you were planning a wedding yes, but I can safely say I never would have imagined that you had these kinds of intentions as well.

Having come to know you a little through these letters I can see that you and Elrond would fit very well, and I am beyond happy for you both. He deserves all the joy in the world after everything he has faced, as do you.

What you ask though is not something that is wise or advisable. I do not think I need to explain to the child of a son of Doriath the very many reasons why I should remain where I am, where I can cause no more damage, stir up ill feelings, or bring disaster down upon you.

I have no excuses for what I did under my father’s oath, there is no justification for it and it cannot be undone no matter how much regret and remorse I have over it. All the tears in the world cannot bring back the lives lost or ruined, I know that well.

My presence would bring nothing but pain and anger to those harmed by what I did, and I cannot bring that strife to Elrond, or you for that matter.

You offer me something that I cannot accept for his sake, and for yours. It is kindly offered yes, but it is not possible.

I don’t say this lightly; you have no idea how much I wish. . .

It is – it is a very kind thing you are trying to do Celebrian, and I see it is not only for Elrond’s sake that you are making this attempt, but you must see why I cannot accept.

It is better that I stay lost.

~Maglor

Wedgwood pottery trial tray, 1773-1776.

"Each trial piece is marked with a number that corresponds to an entry in Wedgwood’s ‘Experiment Book’. Many pieces are impressed with the firing instructions, for example ‘TTBO’ for 'tip-top of biscuit oven’... On 1st January 1775 Wedgwood declared himself ‘absolute’ with his white jasper adding that he also had, ‘a beautifull Sea Green, and several other colours’, and that he was confident of being able to make pieces from the largest size to the smallest gems for rings. The name jasper, given to this new body, probably took its name from the natural mineral, which like its ceramic counterpart could range through a variety of colours. It took nearly 3,000 individual trials to perfect jasper, one of Josiah’s most important contributions to world ceramics." [V&A]
