    Summary

    Ugh,” Fingon says when he wakes up. His head feels both tender and thick, and the brilliant golden Tree-light hurts his eyes. He hasn’t felt so bad after a Gathering of the Fruits since the first time his father deemed him old enough to attend. The miruvórë Yavanna makes with her own fair hands from the honey of the undying flowers in her Garden is only offered at the high festivals, and it’s dangerously light, clear, and sparkling. It’s as easy to get swept away by it as it is to find oneself caught in the jaws of an undertow when swimming in the Bay of Eldamar, carried beyond oneself by a sense of wellbeing and mirth as inexorably as being carried out to sea.

    “Ugh,” someone agrees, and Fingon rolls over to find Maedhros in his bed, hair a red-brown tangle like seaweed on the pillow and his usually fair face decidedly pallid.

    Fingon and Maedhros accidentally getting married and then inventing SUNGLASSES just to hide it??? The sheer chaotic energy of these two. The PANIC. The DRAMA. THE BIRTH OF SIN GLASSES. I’m living for it

    This AU where Eluréd and Elurín “become” Elrohir and Elladan was truly wonderful to read <3
    It feels like the closing of a circle, if that makes sense, instead of the sad canon version where the twins are never found again in the woods :((

    Oh my god, I’m laughing so hard, Maedhros discovering the twenty-first century was EVERYTHING I needed today

    I absolutely loved this entire series! A truly original AU about the birth of Atlantis — something I never would have expected.
    And the fact that the story was told from so many different perspectives?? chef’s kiss
