Summary
Beautiful, clever, rich—Maeve Dashwood is perfectly content with her privileged life in London and sees no need for an ambitious career or marriage. Grubby, useless, terrified — Maeve Dashwood can dig her heels in all she likes, but when destiny comes calling, The Valar will drag her kicking and screaming.

Summary
“You aren’t my father. Are you, My Lord?”
That question had needled at Allyria since she was old enough to ride her first horse. Each and every day since she had stood as tall as her brother Allem's hip, suspicion had pricked at the girl's otherwise good sense till it lay in tatters. The search for a thread of truth tied to that needle that so tormented her had fostered delusions, mad theories, and melancholy. In the face of a child's tentative inquiries, there had been little patience for nosiness or ill manners. Her resulting despondence went unnoticed, and so she sank deeper into her uncertainty and wondered if she were the silliest creature to ever walk the earth. All before she flowered.Another child bears the consequences of the Tourney at Harrenhal and the Tower of Joy.

Summary
This work began in all its unhinged, cracked, glory when the Amaz*n show (you know the one) revealed Celebrimbor's character design. No diss to the actor, who probably did his best, but he looks like Gilderoy Lockhart. From this simple, albeit idiotic, realization, a question was born: what would happen if Celebrimbor of Eregion and Gilderoy Lockhart switched places?
This is my answer to that question. Steve from Stranger Things also somehow got pulled into it, because of Elrond's dismal look (the hair stylists need to walk on legos all the way to Mordor and back, don't get me started on Galadriel's wig), and let's just say things snowballed from here. Feel free to picture all the other characters according to your own headcannons (which I'm sure are 90% better than what Amaz*n pulled).
No, I am not on drugs. Sometimes, I wish I were. And no, I'm not sure whether I'll watch the show yet.
Oh, one last thing: while I despise many of the show character designs with the burning heat of a thousand suns, I'm actually think the representation is very nice. So you know, pass your way if black Elves give you hives, because we won't get along. Like, at all.

Summary
Percy knocked Annabeth back, his blade sliding through the coarse fur of Dr. Thorn and hitting bone. Wind howled and he heard Annabeth scream, but he held on. He twisted his blade as silver streaked his vision. He felt the muscles beneath him bunch, Dr. Thorn leaping, and then air whistling by.
And then he hit ground, tumbling free of Dr. Thorn while staring up at the sky and gasping for breath. Was the sky supposed to be so close?
