    Summary

    "My lord. I know the hour is late."

    "It is very late," Thranduil agreed softly, "and the weather is foul, and the roads unsafe—all compelling reasons why you should not be standing before me now."

    Bard's smile did not falter, but Thranduil saw a twinge of something painful in his eyes. "If you wish me to leave, you need only say so."

    This is THEE barduil fic to me! Icannot stress how fucking funny I find it - I think the author said something about reading terry pratched around the time of writing it and my god. what a great combo with the ship and the hobbit. Just. everything about this is incredible but i'm especially fond of the letters between Thranduil and Sigrid!

    Summary

    “The first time that Miles has an earthquake induced panic attack in front of Phoenix Wright, he's in the detention center, and being accused of murder.

    The next time that Miles has an earthquake induced panic attack is also in front of Phoenix Wright. He's convinced that the universe is out to get him.

    And just the mere thought of being so willingly vulnerable with Phoenix is enough to make his knees weak, even in spite of recent events. It's different, to choose vulnerability, rather than to be cracked open. And it’s different when it’s Phoenix. For whatever reason, for maybe a million reasons that Miles can’t bear to admit to himself, everything is different when it’s Phoenix.”

    ~~~~~~

    In which Miles gets the support he so desperately needs, and maybe a little more.

    This is honestly so, so lovely, and everything I ever wanted to read with these characters! It's so sweet and comforting, while also feeling realistic and grounded in the descriptions of panic attacks and all the earthquake-related baggage, which is such a difficult line to walk and every single time it's done amazingly well here!

    Summary

    It wasn't so strange that Thranduil would call him a friend. And yet the word seemed to draw them closer like a length of string, binding them together, yet still so fragile.

    [In which Thranduil and Bard begin writing each other letters over the long winter after the battle.]
