Summary
Galadriel falls from the cliff after her fight with Sauron, only to wake up in an alternate version of Middle-earth. In this reality, however, there is no eruption of Orodruin, and Sauron didn't forge any rings. But one fact is still very much the same – evil does not sleep. The Southlands are still in danger.

Summary
Halbrand, heir to the throne of the Southlands, finds himself stranded in the middle of the ocean with only the old man Diarmid for a friend. That is, until they rescue Galadriel, Commander of the Northern Armies, from the bitter waters. Picked up by a Númenorean ship on its way home, the trio finds safety within the island kingdom. Galadriel will not let Halbrand forget his destiny, or avoid it.
But the Shadow is once again stirring in Middle-earth, and when they discover that Halbrand is more than he seems, Galadriel is confronted with a painful past more intimately tied to Halbrand's future than either of them could have guessed. Thrust into a destiny he never wanted, Halbrand must now choose between finding the light and touching the darkness.
half-Maia!Halbrand AU. Rework of The Raft, Númenor, the lost king of the Southlands plot in Season 1, Eregion, and more. Canon-divergent.

Summary
It was supposed to be a simple arrangement. Give up her freedom, and save her family home. The ultimatum was one Tilda had grown to accept, given that she could stay as far from her would-be captor's presence as she wished. But when chance forces her into closer proximity with the man known as Halbrand, she will find that her patience is not the only thing being tested. Particularly when what he seems to desire most, now, is her heart. Halbrand/OC. (Yellowstone-ish AU).

Summary
From the private writings of Galadriel: "I thought I had found a man. Not a hero, not even a king - just a man. Flawed and raw and full of want. He wore his pain on the outside, the way I wore mine on the inside, and I mistook that for honesty. But it was not Halbrand who answered when I pressed my mouth to his, or whispered my doubts into his skin. It was Sauron.
And yet...he was the first one to truly see me. He saw the fury I could never purge, the pride I never confessed, the hunger that curled in my belly like fire. I remember the weight of his body over mine; his breath against my ear; the way he said my name as if he had known it long before the world began. I remember wanting him, not despite what he was, but because of it. Because he matched something I have always carried and never dared name.
They say light drives out the dark; I have lived long enough to know better.
Light calls to darkness, as surely as darkness calls to light. He was drawn to my light, and I to his darkness. Somewhere, somehow, in between, we became fully known...and perhaps, even, fully loved."

Summary
He was silent for a moment. She heard his cloak rustle, the sound of his hand grasp one of the bars. The gentle tap of his rings against the metal filled her ears, and she shut her eyes.
“When you denied an alliance with me, I found other means of quenching my thirst.”
“For violence and depravity?” she shot back.
“For vengeance,” he hissed. “Just as you sought yours. Keep your righteousness to yourself. I care not for it. These Men, these Númenóreans, fought against me in the Great War. Slew countless lives. With their pride and their arrogance in their mighty goodness. They thought they were better than the rest of us as you yourself believed you were better than me.” His voice dropped to a whisper. “I wanted to see them suffer. I have achieved so much more than that.”
Written for an anonymous tumblr prompt: During Ar-Pharazôn’s rule of Númenor when Sauron holds the position of the High Priest of Melkor, Galadriel is captured in the middle of a war, imprisoned, and handed over to him as a sacrifice to be made in the Temple of the High Priest, but Sauron has other plans. From Akallabêth to the founding of Gondor, unlikely allies are forged.

Summary
Halbrand dipped his head, and Galadriel’s heart jumped in anticipation, but his lips only grazed her cheek. “You’re the one who said ours was no chance meeting. We were brought together for a reason.”
“We should stay focused on the difficult journey ahead,” she whispered. “Distractions during the upcoming battle could be fatal.” This venture was only an expedition but would likely turn into something much deadlier.
“That is tomorrow’s concern, which I will treat with utmost seriousness and urgency,” Halbrand vowed. “But what of tonight?” He asked in a low voice, his lips hovering just above hers.
Galadriel could hardly breathe. And could think of no more excuses to not reach for what her heart greatly desired.

Summary
Heading west could be a perilous journey on the American frontier in the 1880s. Being swept away by a flash flood shouldn't deposit you in a strange land. Being a Spinster shouldn't put you in this much trouble. But you are a resourceful modern woman and you don't need a hero from a fairy story.

Summary
"Something about the way he moved through the world, the gentleness of his speech yet ferocity of intention with which he said it…the sparks in the air between them, the way their eyes sometimes met…she didn't want to feel that draw of oxygen to fire, something sustaining *and* consuming...but she did."

Bronwyn struggles with accepting the love clearly between her an Arondir ~ yet it is a force that will not be denied.
I believe that Aronwyn deserve more fics, so here that is :) There is heartbreak, but also hope, I promise :)

Summary
“ '...what’s it like, to…not have the Gift? To have no foreseeable end to the life you’re currently in? To know where you’ll go should your body perish…but not knowing if that’ll ever really happen?'
Arondir considered for a moment. The Secondborn was asking about monumental matters, mused about by Rúmil and debated by Finrod and Andreth. Then he thought of some sort of answer he could give."
~~~~
Arondir and Isildur share a meal and then walk to check on Berek, as they do discussing various matters...some perhaps weightier than either of them expected.

Summary
A friend (you know who you are) said someone should write from Berek's POV, so I thought I'd give it a shot. A shoutout to other friends who informed this writing as well, I'm so grateful!
It basically follows his time in Middle Earth that we've seen so far in the show, with some other inserted moments to flesh out the narrative of his experience.
Who doesn't love Berek, am I right?
