Summary
“He called me back. I stood on the precipice, ready to step beyond the circles of the world, and he called me back. A part of me wishes he had not. I welcomed death as a release, a relief after so many tortures.” Halbarad sought her gaze, his own eyes wide in bleak desolation. “I do not know how to carry this pain. How to survive the breaking. I will find a way to endure—for Aragorn, for our family, for you—but do not think yourself cold-hearted for the path you pushed. It is the one I would have chosen, had things been different.”
Halbarad recovers in Rivendell.

Summary
Five years after the War of the Ring, rumors have been spread all around Middle-Earth that the lords of Aglarond and Ithilien are closer than mere friendship. Threatened by Legolas and Gimli's obvious preference for doing business with one another, the leaders of Erebor and Mirkwood turn suspicious eyes to their trading relationships.
Infuriated by the rumors and scheming, Legolas and Gimli decide to pretend they're married in order to prove that their realms would treat fairly with others no matter what. But can they maintain the deception? Will it end their legendary friendship-- or could it lead to more?

Summary
"I'll tell you what, mate," Flynn begins, retrieving a set of practice wooden daggers and swords from a crate. "How about we make a deal, mm? How about we duel, spar a bit — if I win, I get to take you out to dinner and you leave this practice range. If you win, I leave you alone for the rest of the day."
"Duel me?" Mathias says, and Flynn swears there’s the faintest hint of a smirk there. "I'm afraid I'm sending you home early, then."
—
In which Flynn demands attention from Mathias, and they settle it through a friendly duel.

Summary
There comes the heavy, drawn-out, sticky moment where Francis takes the orange out of James's hands on a hot day, peels it himself, and feeds it to him slice by slice. They make idle conversation, in-between; but as the orange dwindles so do their words. And when James's lips close around Francis's fingers—once could have been an accident, but twice and three times, and Francis is still holding out pieces—then something entirely different is taking place.

Summary
There is never any sneaking around in the dimly lit corridors of ship’s night, or discreet Vulcan kisses in the nooks of engineering.
Unless Jim is incredibly tired, or stressed, there are no lingering looks on the bridge, either.
The stakes are far too high.
ORAdmitting to each other that they are in love is not an issue. The problem is revealing it to everyone else.
This is how Jim and Spock’s relationship would be if Starfleet actually enforced fraternization regulations.Bookmarked by bluethistle
