Summary
My creation was hideous. Lips, blackened and shriveled, a knotting scar across his cheek, dark veins visible through the grey, translucent skin – I brought a monster out of the grave. And his eyes. Watery and yellowed with death, welling with tears and staring straight through me, piercing me with their longing.

Summary
Slain you may be, and slain you shall be, they had been told — and slain they had been, all except Maedhros, who wondered sometimes if he would yet live to see the breaking of the world. Perhaps this was it. But it would be a slow death for Maglor, and an ugly one. He must have dealt many such deaths himself: the bodies had still been warm when they had left Sirion. Not all had been bodies, either. The justice of the Valar was very fitting, and very harsh.
Some hours later — Maedhros was never good at keeping track of time, after long decades on Thangorodrim — there was a sound at the door. It was the children again, Elwing’s small sons.
-
Maglor, injured in a skirmish, is lying close to death. Maedhros is preparing to lose him. If only their little hostages would stop haunting his footsteps.
Meanwhile, Elros and Elrond, still unused to life at Amon Ereb, try to come to terms with what Maglor means to them — and with the fact that Elrond might be able to heal him, if he tries.

Summary
Maedhros & Maglor Week, Day 4: Heroism/Villainy
“You know,” said Maglor, quite conversationally, “last night, the boys asked me if you hated them.”
“I barely even speak to them," Maedhros said.
Maglor smiled, a sharp tug of his lips. “Exactly.”
[Or: Maedhros used to be Maglor's hero. But these days, he’ll play the bad guy, if it means Elrond and Elros think of Maglor a little more kindly in comparison.]

Summary
"Sometimes, Atya — sometimes I fear I was born at the precipice of some disaster, and lived my life as an appendix to all the great tragedies of Arda," Elrond's smile twists bitterly. "That I am destined to only love the dying things of this world. I suppose this boy too is yet another of that tremendous procession of things that will one day come to pass."
"You were not destined to only love dying things," Maglor shakes his head calmly, as if delivering a lesson. "You were destined to be someone whom dying things cannot help but love. There is a difference."
______
Maglor makes his yearly visit to Imladris as Elrond is cleaning up after young Estel's memorably messy handwriting lesson, and the two have a conversation about fatherhood, oaths, and the inheritance of kindness.(all works in the Feral Children series can and probably should be read standalone)
