Seasons of Drabbles – Summer 2022

[ermingarden]

The collection is open and authors have been revealed!

I wrote one fic, for allegoriesinmediasres:

nidicolous
Fandom: Silmarillion
Summary: Sometimes a family is a large waterfowl, an astronomical body, and two Half-elven boys.

The prompt was "A cracky AU where star!Earendil and goose!Elwing raise Elrond and Elros," and it was so fun to write!

I also received an exquisite gift from aroberuka:

All That Glitters
Fandom: TGCF
Summary: After her ascension, Yushi Huang settles into her new home.

I love it to pieces!

The other Silmarillion fics are both gorgeous:

Sleep could I never on the sea-beds by cravetherose
This one's about Berúthiel, and I love the writing style; cravetherose takes advantage of the short format to really lean into something unusual, and in my opinion it's very effective.

Land's End by LookingForDroids
A wonderfully atmospheric piece about Númenor!

And this "Object and Concept Anthropomorphism" fic is beautiful too:

As Below, So Above by archea2
The characters are "Walled Garden" and "Mermaid Statue"; if you've ever read any of Oscar Wilde's fairy tales, it reminds me a little of those.

Awww, thank you!! You were actually the first person I thought of when I saw this prompt – I love your Elros and Elwing stuff!
