Summary
Fleeing the Balrog and Orcs in Moria, Legolas Greenleaf is shot down with an arrow. He dies upon the bridge, unaware of the fates of his Fellowship, and wakes up moments later with the intention of finding his mother, escaping the Halls of Mandos and re-joining the War of the Ring. This would be a lot easier if he was actually in the Halls of Mandos however, instead of at Losgar as the Noldor arrive in Beleriand from Valinor for the first time.

Summary
"She has spoken of the colour red to me before."
Relief washes through him. "Red," he says. "She has mentioned it - in conjunction with the wedding?"
Ianthe's smile curves deeper, almost secretive. Amusement flowers in his chest at whatever schemes she and Feyre have been hatching together. "It was one of her only stipulations," she confides in him, "though I think she wants the little touches she has asked for to be a surprise. I'll say no more!"
"Well," he says, sharing a conspirator's smile with her and feeling lighter than he has in an age at the thought of Feyre plotting with Ianthe in the way that he is, "perhaps this can be our secret as well. I want to see her face, when she realises."
Tamlin cares little about how the wedding will happen, so long as he and Feyre are happy by the end of it; he does, however, have one request of Ianthe.

Summary
"No," he said gently, taking a deep breath. "No, I will not be returning home this time. I have been - Well, I myself swore it - asked to go on a quest, at the behest of Lord Elrond, on the behalf of all Elves. 'Tis secret, so I may not say much, but all races of the Free People are represented - Estel goes! and Boromir as well - and there are nine of us. But the quest will take me far from home and it is perilous, very perilous. A fool's hope, I believe Tauriel called it" - his second gave a terse nod and would not meet his eyes - "but if it succeeds - if it succeeds, the Shadow is banished forever. Our home will be safe from all enemies and truly will be Greenwood again. All homes and havens will be safe, for the Enemy will be no more. I - I may not be there to experience it, is all."
As the time draws nearer to the Quest, Legolas bids farewell to his friends.

Summary
Isildur's Bane has been discovered, and it is the choice of the Wise that it must be destroyed if the Shadow is ever to fall. A Halfling bears it whence it was crafted, and a company of nine shall accompany him in order to ensure the deed is done. I am one of this company, though Lord Elrond refrains from confirming this in as many words whilst he deliberates, and I am sworn to go some of the way with him. Yet I must confess that I do not believe that the fulfilment of this oath will sway me to abandon the path whilst there is still much to walk, even if to Mordor it must lead, and so I ask (though permission or recrimination shall reach me too late to change my course) for your leave, and the freedom to appoint Tauriel as commander of our forces in my stead. I, as you, remember the dishonour that lost her the position the last time she held it, yet I would suggest that honour has no place in a war such as the one that comes now, and that skill should be the only thing to endure.
Legolas writes home to his father to give news of his quest.

Why References Are Necessary to Become a Knight (Or Should Be) by DeepWatersWaiting

Summary
This, Lancelot is sure, would be the perfect occasion to draw his sword and be the hero. Duel me, craven knight! he would cry, and Sir Aziraphale would reply, Ah! Thou hast caught me, a villainous knave, in mine own sinful crimes, Sir Lancelot bravest of all knights. Here, Lancelot would be expected to be humble in the face of glory and so would probably same something like, 'tis a victory of the Holy Spirit that moveth me to greatness! or I am the champion of Queen Guinevere! Desist in her name, fool! Then, he thinks, there will be a resurgence in bawdy songs written about him and Lancelot can go on ignoring the fact he is possibly a bad person and an even worse knight by riding the wings of ego.
Lancelot doesn't trust the newest knight- Sir Aziraphale- in the slightest, especially after his triumph against the Black Knight.

Summary
Boromir sees his brother in Legolas Greenleaf- in the too old eyes and the smiles handed out like they're going spare. With no certainty of returning to Faramir however, Boromir (unofficially, of course) adopts Thranduil's heir for the duration of the Quest and perhaps afterwards if they make it that far. Of course, Boromir cannot restrain himself had stealing only one child of Middle-earth to mother

Summary
In the Disir's cave, Mordred reveals his magic to save Arthur's life, unleashing a chain reaction of events that serve to alter the course of destiny. Magic is legalised, a prophecy (hopefully) nullified, and a Pendragon heir secured; but the threat of Morgana still remains.

Summary
My Great Finwian Gender Swapped Track & Field AU (tm)
All you need to know is that every grandchild of Finwë is a girl and there is a vague attempt to mirror the events of the Silmarillion. Emphasis on vague. Emphasis on attempt. But look, the main point is that we get pole-vaulting Galadriel, right?
Total self-indulgence.

Summary
In which the sons of Fëanor throw house parties, the beer is terrible, 20-something hipster elves act like their drama is as bad as it is in canon, and macking on cousins is fair game.
75% banter, 20% soap opera, 5% fratty humor; 100% dramamonsters.
I regret nothing.
