Exploring the dark tunnels, they find orcs and trolls before
disaster strikes. Trapped in the mines, and with Elrohir injured,
how are they to escape?"
Author's Note: This story is based on two
quotations from Lord Of The Rings, which I decided to combine to
form a single event:
�I too once passed the Dimrill Gate,� said
Aragorn quietly; �but though I also came out again, the memory is
very evil. I do not wish to enter Moria a second time.�
(The Fellowship Of The
Ring, Book Two, Chapter Four, A Journey In The Dark.)
�But when Estel was only twenty years of age, it
chanced that he returned to Rivendell after great deeds in the
company of the sons of Elrond ��

of Frodo and Bilbo�s birthdays. It had to include three of the
following: a bottle of wine, a birthday cake, fireworks, pipeweed
and the number 111. Four out of five isn�t bad. When I
remembered that a certain pair of elven twins were 111 when their
sister was born, the rest was easy! "

Elrohir and the gift horse.
"This one is for JastaElf�s
birthday � a little late, I�m afraid. Happy Birthday, Jasta!"

Day. Dedicated to my father, who sadly died six years ago."

when Aragorn and Gandalf found the sapling of the White Tree?
I began to wonder just how it got there in the first place..."
"First Love" Estel
(Aragorn) tries to write a love letter and Elladan catches him.
"Love" Legolas tells
Aragorn about the relationship between Arwen and himself.
"Blame HASA for this
one. The Birthday Drabbles thread had three requests for June
- Legolas, Legolas/Aragorn friendship, no slash. I combined
all three, and this is the result. The speaker is Legolas."
"Glorfindel's Revenge".
Glorfindel confronts the horse-thief Arwen. "For Arandil, who wanted
to see Arwen get her come-uppance for horse theft!"
"Down in the Valley"
Boromir arrives in Rivendell. "A HASA birthday drabble, featuring
Boromir and music as requested. Italics are Tolkien's own
words, of course."
"Important Business"
Important business as defined by a cat during the Council of Elrond.
"Why?" Thranduil learns
that Legolas is going with the Fellowship."Written for the Wrath
Challenge on Tolkien Weekly."
"Words". Legolas writes to
Thranduil about joining the Fellowship and Thranduil writes back.
"Written for the 'Words' challenge on Tolkien Weekly."
"Temptation". The One Ring
tempts Legolas. "Written
for a HASA Birthday challenge to show a member of the Fellowship
tempted by the Ring."
"Dark Elf". If Legolas had
gone to the side of Sauron... "Written for AU challenges on Tolkien
Weekly and HASA." (AU means "Alternate Universe")
"Hannon Le".
"A friendship drabble with
Legolas and Aragorn, written for Cassia and Sio at the Mellon
Chronicles, to say �thank you� for a Christmas gift they sent."
According to review
notes by Jay, this is all written from Legolas' point of view.
"For Rohan". The riders of
Rohan go out with Eomer, told by Arod's rider. Garulf is the rider
of Hasufel, the horse later used by Aragorn. "This one is for
Elvenesse (Kate) who requested the Rohirrim."
"The Longing" What Legolas
really wants.
"The Wood of Greenleaves".
"From Appendix B: �On the day of the New Year of the Elves,
Celeborn and Thranduil met in the midst of the forest, and they
renamed Mirkwood Eryn Lasgalen.� (The Elves� New Year was 6th April,
I know.) Happy New Year to you all! "
"Battle Beneath the Trees"
Reaction to a sight left after the battle in Mirkwood, probably
Thranduil's point of view.

Elrond
visits Sam at Bag End. This could have happened after Elrond no
longer had to guard Vilya and to visit Frodo. "A birthday drabble
for paranoidangel (Nic), who is a fellow Review Admin at HASA.
She requested Elrond and Sam, so I�ve pretended that Elrond visited
the Hobbits at some point."
"Destiny" Elladan and
Elrohir consider the choice of the half-elven.
"I do not know the twins�
choice, but I tend to think that they chose immortality.
Whatever the decision, I think they chose the same fate � I
cannot imagine them being sundered as Elrond and Elros were. "
(V): According to the books, the
twins did not go with Elrond on the ship to Valinor as was required,
but remained together in lordship at Rivendell. Celeborn later came
to stay with them there before going on to Valinor himself, but it
is not recorded that the twins made any attempt to go with him or at
any later time. I tend to think they chose to remain on
Middle-earth, but apparently they did indeed refuse to be sundered.
"Choices" Elladan and
Elrohir don't go to Valinor on their father's ship.
"Leaving" Elladan and
Elrohir make their final choice whether to go to Aman or stay in
Middle-earth.
"Time to Depart". Elladan
and Elrohir leave for Valinor.
"Arrival" Celebrian in
Valinor watches for those she has long-awaited.

get more than they bargained for. Meanwhile, Mirkwood is falling
into darkness. Her only hope ends up resting in the hands of the two
people she has scorned, and Legolas & Aragorn will risk more
than their lives to save her."
"Part of this story is
slightly un-canon because we place the events of the dwarves�
attempted return to Moria some years prior to when I think it would
actually have happened if one tries to follow a strict Tolkien
time-line. For the sake of the story it could not be helped. Please
consider this a use of artistic license and do not feel inclined to
roast, boil or squash us into jelly over this inaccuracy. :o)

Older stories will move into it over time, probably by author; this
will take a while as they have so many links and my time is
limited, but it will happen. When in the future you can't find a
story at your old bookmark, don't panic; check for it under it's
cross-index to the author, title, or characters. Nothing will be
taken down at any time, just moved.
