    Summary

    The Second Age of Arda.

    Sauron walks Middle-earth unseen in pursuit of the redemption offered by the Valar. But Morgoth's lieutenants have returned from the East and seek to destroy him, along with his allies. In order to preserve that which he yearns to heal in the wake of Morgoth's destruction—and reclaim all that has been taken from him—Sauron must choose between remaining hidden in the shadows ... or embracing his dark power once more.
    -
    Halbrand, the half-Maia heir of Sauron, allies himself with Annatar after Galadriel is captured by vengeful Maiar. His desperation to protect those he loves may be his undoing.
    -
    Galadriel must face the shadow of the past, for it wears many faces and has many names. She believed she found healing and love with Halbrand, but as the son of Sauron comes into his own, she fears that if she fails to guide him into the light, he will follow his father into darkness.

    Continuation of "what makes night within us may leave stars." Will cover the major canonical events of the Second Age.

    Summary

    With high school graduation looming, Galadriel Noldor agrees to fake-date her neighbor and former childhood best friend, Halbrand Aulendil – brooding frontman of local rock band Secret Fire – to help him keep his jealous ex off his back.

    But between late-night chats, crowded local shows, and the dizzying chaos of senior year, the line between pretend and real gets blurred...

    Inspired by an edit by halbrand's lawyer on Xwitter along with the song 'Sex' by The 1975, this fic was written for Saurondriel Fest 2026, mainly for the prompt 'Fake Dating'.

    Summary

    It was a hard thing to realize her choice had been made the moment she took his hand beside the Glanduin and helped him to rise. For if she didn’t fight him and instead waited for the right moment to take up her sword against him… What could she become in the time in-between?

    How great? How wise? How righteous in her judgement?

    When Galadriel's lips parted, another voice cut through the stillness. One that was hers, yet wasn’t at all. “It is done, and we are joined. We need speak of my sorrows no more.”

    There was no time to worry for such a thing as her spirit and soul, now. She had said it was done.

    But truly, it had just begun.

    Summary

    Low music thrummed around the group, dimmed red lights illuminating everything in a glow of restrained debauchery as Galadriel's lips pursed together tightly, the hairs on the back of her neck prickling.

    If she'd actually bothered to read back in detail when the destination and dates had been announced, instead of just agreeing quickly thanks to being distracted by a heavy load of building regulation paperwork, she might have realised that their intended destination for the celebration was a strip club.

    ***

    Work hard, play hard - Right? At least that's what Galadriel is trying on for size. The only thing is, it's not exactly a great fit. But when a charming exotic dancer plants himself rent free in her mind, she finds that trying her best to fight her undeniable attraction to him isn't exactly going the way she'd planned.

    Or: Alexa, play Pony by Ginuwine.
