Summary
The Silmarillion, as told by Caranthir's wife in her memoirs.
Needless to say, she is extremely biased. On the other hand, so is Pengolodh - just in the other direction...

Why I Love Telerin Celeborn by Double_sharp
Fandoms: The Silmarillion and other histories of Middle-Earth - J. R. R. Tolkien

Summary
The title. But I can't resist tangents, so everyone in the tags is also discussed to explain why I like it that way. Considering the excursus on Finrod and Galadriel's actions in the First Age, perhaps this is the spiritual successor to my essay on Angrod and Aegnor.
Also treated is Celebrimbor, because one of his origin stories relates to the matter of Telerin Celeborn. Thus I also ended up writing an excursus on Curufin.
Also including an appendix (chapter 2) on a bit of fridge horror regarding the Ban on Galadriel.

Why, despite being generally not too enthusiastic about the Valar, I still really like Melian.

Fëanorian Angrod and Aegnor: A History by Double_sharp

Summary
How the younger sons of Finarfin entered the mythology as Fëanorians, and that alignment (distinguishing them from Finrod) seemed a bit hard to shake off.
Including a brief tangent on why I am attracted to the headcanon of Gil-galad as son of Finrod Felagund. :)
(Now also updated with a second chapter, pointing to some potential evidence from the Athrabeth, as well as regarding Angrod's granddaughter Finduilas. And yet a third chapter about the Bëorians.)

Gildor, Voronwë, and My Lalwen Headcanon by Double_sharp
Fandoms: The Silmarillion and other histories of Middle-Earth - J. R. R. Tolkien

Summary
I somehow felt the need to try to make Voronwë literally "of the House of Fingolfin" when I don't feel the same urge for Gildor Inglorion. In other words - attempting to make Aranwë be Argon. (He still dies! But that doesn't mean he can't meet a daughter of Círdan in the Lammoth beforehand!)
I no longer believe it's necessary (because it seems likely that at the time Voronwë "of the House of Fingolfin" was written, JRRT probably no longer thought such statements had to be literal), but I still think it was an interesting exercise to try.
Also including my Lalwen headcanon. Also countercanonical, but I find it fun.

Summary
Tanya the Evil (Youjo Senki) x HOTD / Fire & Blood. Tanya is reborn in her third life as the daughter of Viserys Targaryen and Aemma Arryn. The story prior to the butterfly effects Tanya's existence brings in, will be a mixture of the the HBO House of the Dragon timeline and the the Fire & Blood book timeline, with some minor alterations to make continuity make sense. Book plot points will be introduced and the story will borrow from both.

Summary
Tanya the Evil/Youjo Senki crossover with A Song of Ice And Fire. This story has her reincarnating as Sansa Stark. This one is more true to the books as I've kept the canon ages and not created any sort of hybrid with the TV show. Ideas within the TV show that don't contradict book canon may still exist.
As typical for my stories - Tanya POV is 1st person and everyone else is limited 3rd person.

Summary
“Uh,” Fingon says, “we had a baby. In the regular way in which babies are had.”
Fingolfin’s eyes are on his, his face expressionless. Fingon looks to Maedhros for help. Maedhros grimaces.
“Sexual intercourse,” he offers, after a moment, “which we engaged in.”
“It’s not very notable at all,” Fingon says.- Language:

Summary
But if of ships I now should sing, what ship would come to me,
What ship would bear me ever back across so wide a Sea?The Lord of the Rings, Galadriel’s Song
It happened so fast.
After Alqualondë, Artanis looks only onward. There can be no return, not after what they’ve done. And what would await them? Only darkness, only sorrow.
Not even the curse and prophecy spoken by the dark figure standing high upon a rock could compel her to reverse course. Nor the abandonment by the faithless Fëanáro and his sons, the stolen ships that vanished into the unmeasured night.
She will not turn back, defeated, begging at the feet of the Valar for pardon.
