#Elerosse

[tar-thelien]

*gasp* What is this!? Kidnap fam with no angst!??? From me!?!?!???? I must be dreaming!

Can be read as a stand alone but part of my series "looking for light in darkness" where all current chapters are written are on AO3

Summary:

Elrond, Elros, Erestor, and Maedhros prepare for Maglor´s begetting day by baking and decorating him a cake.

words: 1007

Maitimo grunted fighting not to move as something pulled him from his sleep by pushing him over.

He stayed as still as possible even as he felt his whole body going stiff. If they didn´t know he was awake maybe they would leave him alone. He whined quietly as he felt the soft mattress under him. Not the orcs then. The master always knew when he was awake or sleeping and sometimes he wouldn´t even care if he was awake or not, just begin as it pleased him, but then again other times he would play along if Maitimo tried to fake being asleep. He could only hope.

“Atya! Atya, wake up!” a high pitched voice cutting past his lingering nightmares and shadows giving place for Elros´ smiling face showed right up in his own.

“What´s the matter,��� he slurred revealed as he stood up to grab some clothes and get dressed but stopped right away as he caught a glance of the night sky from the loose closed curtains, “child it´s the middle of the night.”

“Well yea, but it´s Atto begetting day! Or that´s what Aratorno Erestor said…” the child mumbled as he looked down at the floor frowning, “what is a begetting day anyway?”

Maedhros looked confused down at the child, didn´t he know what a begetting day was?

“It… it is when you were made.” he says trying not to sound too awkward, deciding that was probably the best way to explain it.

“So a birthday!” Elros exclaimed with a bright smile, and Maedhros laughed halfhearted, “no, but then yes again I guess. You have both.”

“So I have a begetting day and a birthday too then! When is my begetting day?”

“You tell me, child. Now where are our brothers and my Arayondo? ”

“Elerondo, the dough isn't going to hurt you, just take it out and knead it, you can clean your hands thereafter,” they could hear Erestor´s tired voice softly chiding Elrond as they walked into the kitchen that was only occupied by a few cooks and said other two.

“Elros can do that instead,” Maedhros said as he sat down at the table beside Elrond taking the large bowl with dough from the nervous looking child and sliding it over to Elros who cheerfully sat down in front of him, “right child?”

Elros nodded happily taking the dough from the bowl leaving Erestor to go back to finding the cream, jam, and apple syrup.

“Was it too unexcepted to be woken in the middle of the night Luinil?”

Elrond nodded fiddling with the small yellow sack of sand Maedhros had given him some time ago, “Elros told me yesterday at lunch…” he mumbled, “but didn´t say how it would happen or what we would do.”

Maedhros hummed in understanding, “then you just sit there and watch while we do the rest, yes? And maybe if you want to you can be the judger of taste?”

“Me too! Me too!” Elros cried happily as he bounced up and down on the bench, already a large amount of flour and dough adoring his face and pale nightgown.

“Now, Elerosse it looks like you´re already quite busy with that!” Erestor cut in sharply before letting said child take a little portion from the dough when it was put into the oven in a round form so there could also be a small cake for the twins to taste.

After some time of pleasant talking and a few comment on the good smell from the elvers usually working in the kitchen slowly coming in, with the early morning, to begin making morning bread Erestor sat down another smaller bowl before Maedhros and Elrond after having disappeared into one of the pantries, “I´ll get the food coloring and pencils so you can draw on the cake.” and with that he went over to the oven to pull out both the small taste cake and the bigger one, to sit in the middle of the table.

“You have to wait till it´s not so hot,” Maedhros said as he cathed Elros´ hand already halfway over the table.

Huffing Elros looked at the smaller bowl with a weird sweet smelling contents, “what´s that!?”

“That´s marzipan,” Maedhros explained with a small laugh, “we´re putting it on top of your cake so we can paint on it! But first, someone will have to roll it flat and smooth so it can fit over the cake.”

“Oh,” Elros said before looking up at Maedhros with wide eyes, “what are you giving Atto as a gift? Me and Elrond found some pretty stones and Aratorno helped us weave five hay dolls that looks just like us! He even carved out the heads and let us paint them!”

“Can I see them now then?” Maedhros chuckled leaning closer to Elros.

“NO!” the child cried, “we already packed them in! In beautiful colored paper! I accidentally ripped some so we had to find some new ones to hide the dolls in, but it was okay because Aratorno has a whole closed with it! That where also where he got the yarn for the hair and ribbons for decoration he said.”

“I got someone to carve a flute for him, that I have painted myself!” Maedhros said smiling.

“Do you want to paint on it too, Elrond,” Maedhros asked after Elros had rolled the marzipan out and with Erestor´s help fitted it on top of the now cold cake, after eating the smaller cake first of course, to make sure it tasted good.

Elrond nodded slowly and soon both he and Elros were sitting on the table with small bowls containing colored water from fruits and likes, painting small flowers and trees with rustic brushes all over the cake.

“Look!” Elros exclaimed loudly, “I painted us all! There are you Atya, and there´s Atto and Aratorno Erestor are there, and Elrond and I are in the middle!”

---

Atya = Dad/Father: Quenya

Atto = Dad/Father: Quenya

Aratorno = Cousin: Quenya (male)

Arayondo = Nephew: Quenya

Elerondo = Elrond´s name in Quenya; in one of Tolkien´s letters it´s translated to “The vault of stars” later changed to “Star dome” like his Sindarin name translates to. Erestor does mean the first translation though.

Elerosse = Elros´ name in Quenya; in one of Tolkien´s letters it´s translated to “Elf of the spray” and later changed to “Star foam” like his Sindarin name translates to.

It´s important to know that in the letter being talked about, it´s Maedhros finding them playing by the waterfall, but also that in that version Elros had his first appearance, meaning that in most of the early drafts, Elros didn´t exist, only Elrond. In the drafts where it´s only Elrond existing it´s also Maedhros that finds him and takes pity, not Maglor. Later it´s said that it was Maglor that found them by the waterfall.

Luinil = Blue star: Quenya; Luinil was one of Varda´s brightest stars, and I headcannon Elrond and Elros have small star like hallos on their heads, and dark blue hair, thus the reason behind the nickname.

Maedhros only calls Elrond Luinil as Elros got angry the first time he called him that too mentioning that Erestor already called him Narmo, which he didn´t even know what meant, and that Luinil was Elrond´s nickname as Maedhros had already called him that once before.

Narmo = Wolf: Quenya

Narmo comes from my main kidnap fam fic that´s currently now only angst; in the fifth chapter, Erestor thinks of Elros as a wolf and thus calls him one.

[Send me ☂ for my Muse to be caught out in the rain with yours]

There was little fanfare to the Inquisitor’s arrival on the Storm Coast, but that was quite alright with Elerosse. The fewer people fussing over his presence, the better. Even the small escort party waiting to rendezvous and guide his group to the forward camp sent an uncomfortable prickle down the elf’s spine–though that might have been the damp chill already soaking into his very core.

All the same, he dismounted his horse and kept a firm hold on the reins as he stepped forward and cast his eyes across the group of Inquisition soldiers. Though he looked to all of them gathered, Elerosse felt his eyes drawn back to one individual in particular, intrigued by the sight of another vallaslin-marked face, but despite a lingering gaze on the other elf, he addressed them as a group.

“Thank you for meeting us,” he started cautiously, already glancing to the Seeker beside him for reassurance before continuing. “I hope we haven’t kept you waiting long. Is it… far to the forward camp?”

There was little Elerosse could do to hide the grimace as an unfortunate–yet perfectly timed–shower of rain suddenly picked up, blowing into his face and making him scrunch his forhead in discomfort.

As an aid to the Inquisition, Finn had joined back when the Inquisitor was just a Herald. He had not yet approached the other elf, but he had watched from afar. He was but another foot soldier, although as a lone Dalish elf, he had no ties here. He could have left whenever he wished. What was the point? Was it not the right thing to do by staying here, and aiding where he could? 

The rain had seemed to be endless on this side of Thedas. He had spent days in rain before, tucked away in the shelter of trees and caves, but here, all they had was vastness until they got back to camp. Even then, was the canvas of these men’s tents thick enough to stave off the water? He gathered they would find out if the rains persisted. 

There was not a large group of them as Inquisitor Lavellan arrived, just a few soldiers and scouts, and Finn. He did not quite label himself as either, if he were to be honest. He was not a strained soldier, nor a scout. He was merely... himself. 

To see the Inquisitor so close, Finn wondered what everyone else saw in him. That was not to be an understatement, just a question. He was Dalish, but the Inquisition was an Andrastian run party. And still people accepted him with ease? Well... some. He had his enemies after all. 

“Not far,” replied one of the soldiers. “A few klicks west.” Someone came forward with a cloak so offer the Inquisitor so he could hide from the rain, and it made Finn smile in amusement. He was Dalish, surely a little rain would not hurt him.

“I take it you do not enjoy the rain,” Finn stated as they began to move. He had a long cloak that followed him, but aside from that, he didn’t seem to be bothered by the rain that dripped down his face and hair. In fact, his expression was rather blank.

Casting Shadows

[Question Starters]

@katariisaam ”Want some?” (Its probably food of some sort but interpret it as you lik :>)

Somewhere, in the back of his mind, Elerosse knew the call for dinner had gone out, as it did every evening once the Inquisition encampment became settled in the hills above Redcliffe Village. He knew he should have gotten up, taken a break, gotten a little bit of food in him. Maybe then the map spread before him might have started to make a bit more sense with the missives on troop movement he was trying to work from.

The flickering lamplight probably wasn’t helping much either, and when a large shadow moved through the Inquisitor’s light, the poor elf startled. Flinching back, his hands already reached for his staff, wild eyes darted to find the source of the shadow, only to land on... a Qunari? Yes, right. He’d seem this man around camp. Couldn’t come up with his name, but it was hard to forget such a distinctive silhouette, and he seemed to be offering... food?

“Fenedhis...” he breathed and placed a hand over his chest to calm his pounding heart. “I’m sorry, yes. Thank you. Creators... I didn’t hear you, I’m so sorry.”

@dragonagedmage​ continued from [HERE]

Yue usually didn’t expect much after a War Room meeting. A few simple questions, the five of them filing out of the room one by one. Perhaps even a few notes being written down hastily before he returned to his duties for the day in the mage tower.

He’d heard the rest of the advisors leave the room, leaving himself and Elerosse alone as he leaned over the table to jot down the last few notes. He’d suspected that El had wanted to talk to him about something or had wanted to walk out together after the other had left.

He hadn’t at all expected to have his bum groped by the Inquisitor. He jumped, the quill in his hand scratching ink across the lower part of the notes he’d written. Still legible of course, but he’d have to really focus to read them.

Regardless of the accident, he grinned, chuckling and turning to face his lover.

“Being cheeky in the War Room, are we?”

Elerosse, at the very least, had the grace to look a tiny bit apologetic for ruining his lover’s notes, but only a very tiny bit. Besides, how could he resist? It wasn’t often they were the last two out of the war room, and Yue’s backside was just so wonderfully grabbable. Besides, the Inquisitor had been in such a strange, playful mood all day that made slogging through meetings nearly unbearable, and now that he had a moment to unwind, he just wanted to be close to his love.

Leaning his hip against the rough wood of the war table, El cocked his head to the side and shot a crooked, little grin up at the other elf, his hand just resting on Yue’s hip now as they faced each other.

“Oh, I’m the cheeky one here?” He teased, boosting himself up on his tiptoes to reach for a kiss as his hand stroked over the curve of Yue’s rear one more time. “Maybe a little bit... but I’ve missed getting to be close to you all day.”

[malomaximus]

Me too, Elerosse. Me too...

[dragonagedmage-archived]

✓ :D

send me ✓and my muse will state one thing they find attractive about your muse

He smiles. “What isn’t there to like? His freckles for one. How he fits so well against me. How kindly he treats others. The way his nose scrunches when he’s concentrating on something. How shy he is. Ah...I am getting ahead of myself.”

@elerosselavellan

[elerondo]

i think Elrond never calling himself Earendilion and never having any references to that man is great. i’m very happy this is canon. that it is HIGHLY POSSIBLE Maedhros and / or Maglor named Elros and Elrond due to what the twins were doing when they were found. their names exactly describes how they were found !! Elros playing by the waterfall, and Elrond in the cave. the names Elros and Elrond (Sindarin) are exceptionally close to Elerosse and Elerondo (Quenya) which further lends credence to the idea that the Feanorian brothers named the twins. has there ever been Sindarin and Quenya names so close together in form and spelling ? would the House of Thingol, with their Quenya ban and Second Kinslaying, named their heirs such when at the time, they were all in Sirion, by the sea, with no waterfall or cave ?

Aragorn advised against the Mariner’s song being sung in the house of Elrond. the Feanorian star was bannered on Arwen’s wedding.

Star-dome BY ArlenianChronicles

"Elerondo you named me; your Vault of Heaven. Throughout the sky will I stretch, and the stars shall be my eyes." Here's my painting for Maglor and Elrond! I felt like making up a quote, so there you go; it hints at the version of canon where Maedhros and Maglor found the twins in a waterfall cave. I do like the idea of Maglor naming the twins Elrond (Elerondo) and Elros (Elerosse). Perhaps he called them so whenever he spoke with Maedhros, and the twins caught on with it before Maglor made his decision and named them formally in Sindarin. Both Star-dome and Vault of Heaven are translations for Elrond's name (and they essentially mean the same thing too XD). I thought I'd draw him and Maglor together because I haven't drawn the Feanorians with the El twins for a long while (save for Maedhros and the Elu twins lol), and those guys were the ones I got into when I first entered the Tolkien fandom. Elrond is glowing here because ... maybe he's doing some healing business? And yes, that's a star-dome behind Maglor XDD

Star-spray BY ArlenianChronicles  

"Elerosse I am named, for the foam upon water. Ever will I remember the sea, and in time my fate shall bring me there." Happy Father's Day!!  Even though Maedhros isn't really Elros' father, he can certainly be a father-figure XDD So here's the companion piece to Star-dome! I made up the quote again, and this painting is also for the version of canon where the twins are found in a cave near a waterfall. Elros' name translates to Star-spray/foam, and he was named as such because Maedhros and Maglor found him playing in the waterfall. So I drew splashing waves all around Maedhros and Elros! Elrond, on the other hand, was found in the cave, and if I remember correctly, it was either the waterfall's shining droplets or the cave's glittering ceiling that earned him the name Star-dome. I think the glittering ceiling works better XDD

Welcome to the TRSB 2020 Summer Showcase!  No standard banner on this one, because today we bring you a lovely TRSB artist:

ArlenianChronicles

DA: ArlenianChronicles - Hobbyist, Digital Artist 

https://archiveofourown.org/users/ArlenianChronicles

I drew my first digital piece of Silmarillion fanart in 2017, featuring Maedhros and Elrond, but I didn't start drawing regular fanart until 2018. That was when I entered the Tolkien fandom.

My fandom activities include drawing designs for the Silmarillion characters, developing my AU for Maedhros, Elured, and Elurin, thinking about the platonic and familial relationships in the Silmarillion, and worrying a lot over future adaptations of Tolkien's works.

My non-fannish hobbies include drawing my original characters and writing their stories, sitting at the computer, and eating food.

How I'm joining in TRSB20: I'm an artist! :D

Piece title: Star-dome

Piece rating: G

Info about my piece:

After finishing this painting, I was Inspired to write this quote for it:

"Elerondo you named me; your Vault of Heaven. Throughout the sky will I stretch, and the stars shall be my eyes."

This painting goes more with Tolkien's other version of canon where Maedhros and Maglor found the twins in a cave near a waterfall. If I remember correctly, Elrond stayed in the cave while Elros played in the waterfall. They were named as such, and I assume that Maglor was the one to name them (and perhaps Maedhros, as well).

My headcanon for this version of events is that Maglor called them Elerondo and Elerosse (the attested Quenya translations of Elrond and Elros) whenever he spoke to Maedhros about them, and the twins caught on to it. Eventually, Maglor made the decision to formally name them in Sindarin, since they wouldn't have known Quenya at the time.

Both Star-dome and Vault of Heaven are translations for Elrond's name (and they essentially mean the same thing too XD). Tolkien once translated it as "Elf of the Cave." I thought I'd draw Elrond and Maglor together because I haven't drawn the Feanorians with the El twins for a long while (save for Maedhros and the Elu twins lol), and those guys were the ones I got into when I first entered the Tolkien fandom. Elrond is glowing here because ... maybe he's doing some healing business? :D

And yes, that's a star-dome behind Maglor XDD

👀 - what’s your role play guilty pleasure? / ⚡️ - How often does inspiration strike you to write your muse? / 🎱 - Do you prefer to leave your IC stuff to chance or do you like to plot?

👀 - what’s your role play guilty pleasure?

ROMANCE!! I am a sucker for shipping and romance and everything sweet and fluffy. The fact that I can explore so many different unique variations on love and relationships with a character I love as much as Ezra is one of the things that makes me adore roleplaying! That’s not to say I don’t also like RPing friends or rivals, but that’s the stuff that I really, really like.

⚡️ - How often does inspiration strike you to write your muse?

It’s a near constant thing, especially if I’m actively writing and keeping up with threads. I’m in the process of coming back to DARP after almost two and a half years off, mostly because that inspiration got so strong again! I will say, though, that Ezra can be a tricky and stubborn muse sometimes, and I find my other character [Elerosse] is consistently easier to write. Ezra is a more interesting character, just by virtue of having more life experience and a more canon-divergent backstory, but can be difficult to write occasionally.

🎱 - Do you prefer to leave your IC stuff to chance or do you like to plot?

I like a little bit of both. It can be fun to see where things go by chance, but if it’s going to be a longer thread or incorporate things like specific in-canon events, or may be happening pre-game, at least a little bit of discussion about details can be good so everybody is on the same page. Even mid-thread, it can be good to step back and ask where both parties want things to go if it’s becoming too open-ended.

//Heck yeah, jumping on this scent headcanon bandwagon.

If he’s been casting recently, there’s a persistent scent of burning--particularly burning cedar wood. 

Very often, he smells like potions for easing breathing, especially if he’s been sick recently. Similarly, poultices and potions for easing pain, which is near constantly as Inquisitor.

Any bath product is usually either unscented or uses a very mild herbal, citrusy scent, and he prefers a similar sort of blend for any scents he uses otherwise.

[Send 🎁  to give my muse something for their birthday]

@dragonagedmage said:  🎁 (I have no idea what hed give El)

If he was being honest, Elerosse intentionally hadn’t made a huge deal out of his birthday. There were so many things going on in the world, in his own life, that seemed infinitely more important than himself. All the same, when his lover presented him with a gift, he couldn’t help the absolutely delighted grin that spread across his face. 

“Yue...” he started softly, turning the gift over in his hands as he tried to keep the sudden swell of emotion out of his voice. “I... I didn’t think anybody was going to remember. Thank you.”

A smooch <3

[aylenlavellan]

Shy (but friendly) smoochies!

This one was a surprise: she hadn’t expected a kiss from anyone, less a fellow elf who... she wasn’t sure she had met yet. Still the shy, sweet gesture brought a smile to her lips, and a blush to the tips of her ears.

“Well, hello there... That was sweet,” she greeted, voice filled with delight. “Unexpected, but sweet.”
