    Summary

    Legolas had years to love Emma.
    He had watched her grow up in Rivendell, watched her become difficult, mortal, impossible to ignore.
    And still, he said nothing.
    By the time he understands what silence has cost him, Emma is already on the road to Mordor — carrying more than maps, more than grief, and far more of the Ring’s shadow than anyone expected.
    Then Faramir finds her in Ithilien.
    He does not know the child she was. He does not owe anything to the silence that shaped her. He only sees the woman in front of him, and for Emma, being seen like that may be more dangerous than being loved for years.

    A canon rewrite about the love that waits too long, the love that arrives too clearly, and the woman who has to survive long enough to choose.

    Summary

    After the holy war quites down, the remaining Fellowship spends their last weeks in Edoras before the Valar get to spin their webs of fate once more. A sudden, unexpected letter from his father arrives for Legolas, which leads him to decisions he would never regret, no matter how much grief and pain it took upon him and Aragorn, who grows to be the one single person keeping him down to earth. Their forbidden love won't last long, even if neither of them want to hear of it - But what happens when an elf decides he had enough of serving the gods above and lives for himself, even if only for a few months?

    Summary

    On the day before moving into university halls (leaving it a bit late), the Fellowship, plus some others, are added to a group chat to get to know the people they will be living with for the next year. What could possibly go wrong with all these characters living under the same roof?

    Expect lots of teasing and (mostly friendly) tormenting, a concerning number of things getting broken, and way less sleep than is at all healthy.

    In case it isn't already abundantly obvious, I did not create these characters, nor do I own them. I'm also definitely not the first to write in this AU either; this was inspired by a lot of brilliant and funny works which I loved reading.

    Summary

    Periwinkle Took isn't sure she could get much stupider.

    She also isn't really sure how she genuinely thought that she was a Hobbit for all of her (uneventful) life.

    To top it all off, she really doesn't understand how she's ended up running for her life with her little brother and his motley band of equally foolish friends.

    Summary

    Maxine always believed magic was nothing more than a well-executed trick.

    Raised behind the scenes of a famous traveling circus alongside her uncle Baltazar — the park’s charismatic Great Magician — she grew up surrounded by illusions, extravagant performances, and eccentric people.

    Between stage tricks, pickpocketing lessons disguised as survival training, and nights spent observing people from the top of the Ferris wheel, Maxine learned that the world depended on perception, attention, and the ability to fool the right eyes at the right moment.

    But everything changes when a mysterious figure connected to Baltazar’s past reveals a truth hidden for years: magic is real, another world exists alongside her own, and Maxine is tied to it far more deeply than she ever imagined.

    Forced to leave behind the only life she has ever known, she is taken to an ancient institution linked to Merlin’s legacy — a place ruled by tradition, bloodlines, and people who spent their lives studying what she believed was only illusion.

    While others learned magic through books and rituals, Maxine grew up learning how to understand people — and that may be more dangerous than any spell.

    Summary

    The table in front of him held a bowl of warm water a soap, what appeared to be most of the combs in Mithrim (and they would need all of them), and a pair of sharp scissors. He gestured towards the scissors with his head. “I could trust myself with something sharp in my off hand,” he said, “or something sharp at the back of my head, but not both.”

    To say his hair was supremely matted would be to be very kind to him.

    Summary

    Bilbo Baggins wants nothing more than a quiet life, but Gandalf—and a company of infuriatingly persistent dwarves—have other plans. Dragged from Bag End into a quest he never agreed to, Bilbo finds himself dodging trolls, goblins, wolves, and a growing list of disasters that seem determined to eat him alive. Yet beneath the grumbling, good manners, and sharp tongue, Bilbo proves far braver than anyone expects—including himself. As the journey unfolds, his reluctant place among the company begins to solidify, especially in the eyes of Thorin Oakenshield, whose suspicion slowly gives way to respect, fascination, and something far more dangerous.

    Summary

    In one world, the great Music of the world Sang Bilbo Baggins into being, and he takes after his Baggins father more greatly than his Took mother, and the Tookish heart of him lies sleeping for many years, until it is finally roused by extraordinary circumstances and an unexpected party.

    But in this world, the Music that makes up Bilbo Baggins is reversed. In this world, Bilbo is a Baggins in name and in certain preferences only—such as in his love of handkerchiefs and table manners and good waistcoats with shiny buttons. In all other respects, he takes very strongly after Belladonna Took, famed adventurer and all around oddity...and that changes everything.

    In which Bilbo Baggins is an adventurer, and events spiral outward from there.
