Summary
“Well then,” said Glorfindel, “can you tell me more about this very minor injury that you fear may keep you out of battle? As in, what is it, and how did you come by it?”
“It was an accident. A ridiculous one.” The corners of Ecthelion’s mouth turned downwards. “I was walking past the archery butts when, quite suddenly, I was struck by a stray arrow.”
“Where?”
“In the northern corner, just past the Balrog-shaped targets.”
“No, where on your body?”
“In the… lower back.”

Wen Kexing takes care of Zhou Zishu, in the three months when he will not wake up. Outside their stale bed, winter shakes itself into a muddy, too-bright spring.

Summary
“It’s alright, A-Xu,” Wen Kexing murmurs over and over in this soft, wounded voice, as if he’s the one who’s hurting. “Hush, you’ll be alright, it’ll be over soon. I’m here, A-Xu.”
Zhou Zishu can’t reply. He can’t even breathe without searing agony, but his body won’t allow him to stop, so he gasps in and in and in, and sobs when he can stand it no more.

Summary
Any ghost could look at Wen Kexing now and see opportunity. The ghosts that know better would argue, in hushed whispers that they think their Guzhu does not hear, that he is in fact more dangerous when his mind splits from both his body and itself like this.
He thinks that they would be wrong, too.
(Or, Wen Kexing reaches a breaking point at Siji Manor. Things change.)

Summary
"Everyone who knows Fëanor’s firstborn knows it is inevitable that at some point, the coin would drop and he would transition from pitiably traumatised to certifiably insane. One morning Maedhros finds himself groping around his mind to find Thangorodrim in the way of someone sleepily seeking their lover’s hand at the moment of waking. The coin drops."
Fingon rescues Maedhros off Thangorodrim. Maedhros climbs back up it every morning.

Summary
This series includes all the stories I have ever written about my versions of Ecthelion and Glorfindel, in mostly chronological order, except for the final story, which contains various extras.
(The stories all share the same canon--until Glorfindel's rebirth. Then there are two different versions of how they reunite, each with its own sequence of fics.)If you're here for the first time, I suggest starting with Flawed and Fair, the first fic I wrote about these two, and still the most popular.

Summary
Every time Sauron asked for the Rings and Celebrimbor refused was a door slammed in his face. A request for their next meeting to be subtly more monstrous. He made sure Celebrimbor knew that. And yet while Celebrimbor’s dread was intensified by the knowledge of who was doing this to him, it was the fact that it could always get worse which truly worried him.
Sauron was, in fact, deliberately leaving room for it to get worse.
Or: Sauron pushes exactly as far as he needs to achieve results.

Summary
He is the Lord of the House of the Fountain, and he and his do not drown.
[As he dies, Gothmog curses Ecthelion to be trapped inside his sword, never to reach Mandos or be free, and the curse holds until the Third Age, when Legolas Thranduillion picks up Orcrist from a ragged group of dwarves. Suddenly, Ecthelion’s soul is trapped in Legolas’ body, and they have to learn how to balance different personalities, desires, and loves, made all the more difficult as they start dancing around a potential romance with Glorfindel of Imladris—an elf who Ecthelion once loved, and now is courting Legolas, all without knowing where—or who—Ecthelion is now.]
