Summary
When he wakes up, he is surprised to find that he’s alive.
And not ‘alive in the halls of Mandos,’ either – he’s alive alive. His entrails are still in his body, no spear-wound in sight, not even a scar when he can’t stop himself from grasping at the phantom pain.-
or, Celegorm gets a second chance at life. let's see what he does with it, shall we?

Summary
It's hard to imagine two people more different than Maglor Smith and Andril Hope. He's a chart-topping musician from a complicated high-society family; she's a hardworking doctor with no relatives to speak of. There's no reason a chance encounter involving a crack in the sidewalk should lead to an actual friendship...
...except that it does.
As the two grow closer and their lives get more entangled, Annie has a terrifying choice to make. Does her carefully constructed life have room for messy, chaotic love? Or will it bring everything crashing down around her?

Summer in Formenos by Haldalinde

Summary
Nerdanel, Finwë, Indis and young Maedhros have a plan: summer holidays and exchanges of cousins!
Young Aredhel, for the first time, will spend the summer in Formenos with Fëanor's "wild sons" and their weird father... Despite her parents misgivings, the "unladylike" princess may bloom in the north, and discover her own path.
(Note 1: This is less a story than Aredhel & the boys having fun&fluff in the countryside, come bake, garden and wander the forest with me!)
(Note 2: This is set in the same universe as Their Oath shall drive them, but this is 100% gen and a lot lighter. Both stories can be read on their own.)

Why Lúthien is a Mary Sue—or, of Fairy-stories by EtDonaFerentes

Summary
For me, the most intriguing thing about Beren and Lúthien’s story has always been a vague feeling that it does not belong in the Quenta. It took me a while to understand why: Beren and Lúthien is a fairytale dropped into the middle of an epic tragedy. These two literary genres are diametrically opposed and follow entirely different genre conventions and tropes, and that is why Beren and Lúthien has always felt so jarring to me in the wider context of the Quenta, and why Lúthien herself feels like a Mary Sue.
