On Friday, I think, no, on Thursday, I decided to go check nathar-nimhe again for the first time in forever. First, I re-read some old fic ideas, of which I have completely forgotten only one! (that I have now deleted), then I re-read my fics there -> liked the one with Miriel as High Queen in Beleriand -> went 'why don't we write the whole Dagor Bragollach with Miriel there as High Queen'?

After I finished my cleaning routine, I went and re-read the first couple of pages of the chapter about the battle, then I set to writing in the night and went to bed at 3:00 AM (F). 

I guess I like the idea of moving every character about as a chess piece, finding a place and a role for everybody etc.

I also downloaded maps (I had never saved Tolkien maps on my PC before, iirc), particularly Beleriand+rest of ME map (for me, it's sort of mind blowing that Ost-in-Edhil is about paralled to the southermost river in Ossiriand, I guess I always imagined Beleriand to be further up north?); I read wikis (and thus (re-)learned where exactly Maglor was situated in the FA LOL. I knew vaguely where he was, but I wouldn't have been able to say exactly between the two branches of the Gelion); I asked Google questions (not relevant to this story, but just how far was Valmar from Tirion?).

Canonical deaths during the battle still happen, Finrod gets captured as in my old drabble, and others are gravely wounded. (I'm only talking about Elves here, because I've never kept tracks of humans.)

The problem? The problem is that, as always, my imagination took a leap of faith that my writing ability has a hard time keeping up with. 

And so the number of characters increased, and also the number AU elements and of things to write.

Very last fic for this year, because I needed High Queen Míriel in Beleriand making things even more complicated.

Rating: Teen 
Words: Around 930
Pairing: Fëanor/Míriel
Content Warning: nothing apart from the incest and Míriel being even less diplomatic than Fëanor ('cause we know she was)
Summary: High Queen Míriel gets news about the war, but is more interesed in her dinner (and her son).

I was like 'let's write a short scene from this AU I have in mind'. Sadly AU doesn't work without a ton of explanation and notes.

Rating: Teen 
Words: Around 1100
Pairing: Gildor/Maedhros (also consider FëanorianOT8 & FëanorianOT8/Gildor in the background)
Content Warning: AU, slight hint of NSFW tentacle sex, Fëanorian!Gildor, body horror?/monster bodies
Summary: Maglor and Gildor visit Maedhros

EDIT 07/10/19: I just recalled that Urloth wrote an awesome Fëanorian!Gildor (son of Celegorm) which is probably where all my Fëanorian!Gildors come from.

Rating: Teen
Words: 910
Pairing: Fëanor/Daughters
Content Warning: Genderswap with hints of mother/daughter incest; mentions of kinslaying and past violence
Summary: The Fëanorians arrive in Middle-Earth

And suddenly fic. Mainly, I wanted to kick myself into finishing something, so here is this very long fic which I started mid-August, I think.

Rating: Teen
Words: 710
Content warnings: Mentioned cosmic cannibalism? Something like that.
Summary: Fëanor breaks the Silmarils. It doesn't go as planned. (Maedhros is in pre-orgasmic state for one.)
