    Bookmarker's Notes

    One of the best MDZS fic out there. WWX characteristics is sooo spot on with the novel here. No oblivious/dense/politically clueless WWX here. He is the deservedly genius, once in three generations talent. His seeming social faux pas is the chosen lesser evil that he decided he could pay. The romance with LWJ is very organically blooming in WWX. The cultivation sects got it just desserts. No such things as clean political entity

    Summary

    The war had consequences. Once, a fully realized Avatar referred to one who had mastered all the elements and could go into the Avatar State. Now, that has changed. No one could master fire when there was no one to teach it, and people feared the abilities of a firebender too much to allow anyone, even the Avatar, to learn too much of it. Now, an Avatar was simply said to be fully realized when their instructors decided they had learnt enough.

     
    In which Lan Sizhui is the Avatar, but he cannot firebend, nor can he waterbend very well. That changes when his travels take him to Yiling.

    Summary

    The little Crown Prince of the Noldor disappears. The Valar are as unhelpful as ever, but fortunately a Maia of Aulë offers his insight to King Finwë.

    Meanwhile, Elerondo of Tirion, the best Healer of the Noldor, is busy raising his young son.

    (Or: Elrond travels through time accidentally and decides to fix the family of his adoptive fathers starting with Fëanor. Maedhros and Maglor really should have taught Elrond not to imitate their methods.)

    Summary

    A slave, broken and forgotten, and hopefully dead within the decade. That is what young Lindir believes to be his fate, when orcs burn his village to the ground and round the inhabitants up as prisoners.
    Then one morning, a horn sounds through the fog.

    What follows is a tale of family, of choice, and the song that unites us.

    Summary

    "Lullabies do not make kinslayers. This he knows. And yet, it never stops the worry from curdling in his chest, the only constant of all the cradles he has sung beside. For the tune endures after all, and nothing empty can truly endure: every vacant hroä holds a fragment of the fëa that once forsook it. Can a song be washed of meaning? Is tenderness immune to ideology? Groping about blindly in the dark of their dreams, Elrond had always worried that he was not watering the crops for his children to harvest, but salting the earth before the seeds could be planted."
    ___________________________
    At a parade celebrating the the founding of Imladris, Elrond spots an unforgettable face in the crowd, a face he’s not seen for millennia. To his delight and apprehension, it is indeed Maglor Fëanorian, who brings with him two things. First, a suspiciously tame monkey he insists isn’t a metaphor. Second, the groundshaking admission that Elwing and Eärendil’s sons were not named Elrond and Elros.

    Or, a love letter to Maglor, Elwing, and Elrond.

    In which Maedhros once told Maglor that Angband’s government was very might-to-right so, upon waking up in the past after haunting the shores through the Fourth Age, he decides that he could probably beat up a balrog or two and marches his ass across the Ice to bitch slap Sauron.

    Sauron finds himself unexpectedly okay with this.

    Well, thinks Nerdanel. Well. It isn’t as if she has much faith in her own sons’ abilities to make decisions now, not after she spent a lifetime trying to instill independence in them and they all still followed their father into the teeth of ruin and grief.

    [The fix-it fic where Nerdanel, Anairë and Eärwen sneak out of Aman to steal some Silmarils because wars don't always need to be won by armies.]
