Summary
Darkwind never thought to see Firesong prepared to strike at his bondbird in a rage. Nor had he ever thought to see him sobbing out broken apologies, collapsed on the floor, cradling his bird in his arms. Nor drowning in grief and guilt, and calling himself a monster.
Nor had he ever considered how they would ever possibly move forward from this.

Summary
This is a translation from Russian of a family friend's thinly-fictionalized memoir, or rather, of its first chapter. He published it in Russia in 2004; I made this translation as a gift to him in 2012, and posted it on livejournal at the time. I'm crossposting it to Ao3 now, in February of 2019, mostly for the purposes of tidy archives.
This book gets at the nature of life in the Soviet Union, at the ways it was fundamentally alien to those living in the US today, better than any other of its kind. If you read Russian, the whole thing is up on the author's website. I am, sadly, unlikely to ever translate more of it.

Summary
The day Maedhros leaves the halls of Mandos, Fingon is waiting for him.
He had not imagined anyone would be. Perhaps his mother? But not Fingon, not after so long. Not after the long years after Fingon died, and what Maedhros did in them.

Summary
Even when the Eagle came, even with Fingon’s blade at his wrist, Maedhros had neither hoped nor desired to live.
So he held his breath: and then Maedhros cried, “There you are!”
