Wait question, trying to work things out for a fic of my own and I was wondering, how the hell do you determine all the Finweans’ ages in relationship to their siblings to create their dynamics so well in your stories? Don’t like, none of them even have a canon birth year except for Feanor?

What a compliment, thank you anon! I am very far from an expert on this, but as usual “canon” is a vague and muddy field here.

Finwëan birth years we do know, all from the Annals of Aman in Morgoth's Ring:

Fëanor in YT 1169

Fingolfin in 1190

Finarfin in 1230

Turgon and Finrod in 1300

Galadriel and Aredhel in 1360

(An additional fragment of the Annals in The Nature of Middle-earth gives Fingon's birth year as 1260.)

There is plenty of room, within these dates, to play around with birth years to find a dynamic that suits you! One resource I find invaluable is this excellent post on elven aging, which puts the information LaCE gives us into numbers. Because I am Like That, I wrote up a Python script that uses this formula to convert between elf and human ages. If you're slightly more normal, you can use the fact that elves and humans age at the same rate up until three years, and then after that

elf age = 38.25 - (log((27/human age) - 1)/0.059

and

human age = 27/(1 + e^(-0.059*(elf age - 27)))

to convert between them.

Then you can just use this to work backwards and decide on birth years. Posit, for example: Maedhros was always Fingon's Cool Slightly Older Cousin, and the elf-equivalent of a glamorous twenty-year-old when Fingon was elf!17. That gives us that Maedhros was 56 when Fingon was 47, putting his birth year at 1251, nine years before Fingon. Or perhaps you feel very strongly that Celegorm was older than Finrod, but only very slightly: then give him a birth year of 1297 or so. Were Fingolfin and Lalwen codependently close in age? That gives you somewhere around 1195-1200 for her birth year.

I can't emphasise enough that absolutely none of this is necessary! The Annals of Aman do (as far as I know) often contradict what's "established canon" (so much as that exists), and so you can literally throw out any of these birth dates that don't spark joy. And the LaCE maths is even more optional. But I think the working backwards is key: decide on a dynamic you like for the various siblings and cousins, and then reverse-engineer the birth years to give you something you like!

Chasing Pavements

Sirius Black x reader (sorta), OC x reader (also sorta) words; 1251 warnings; cheating, not a happy ending (sorta x3) song; Chasing Pavements by Adele (19 as fics) uhhhhhh hi, I don't really love this too much but oh well. There's a touch of emotions controlling the weather which is coooolllllll requests... are requests, I greatly appreciate them and one day they will be fufilled.

I've made up my mind

Don't need to think it over

If I'm wrong, I am right

I walked quietly in the halls, my mind blank as it replayed the scene on an endless loop. It envied the way his lips crashed against hers. It envied the way she let out breathy moans as his hands seeped under her waist band. It envied the way he was with her. I envied the way he was with her, when he was supposed to be with me.

A year ago today, Sirius gained the courage to ask me to be his girlfriend. I remember it like it was yesterday. I remember the way the world seemed just a little brighter and more colorful, and now, it was nothing but dark and gray. Loud thunder boomed in the sky as lightning struck the ground, portraying the screaming anger I couldn’t seem to find.

Don't need to look no further

This ain't lust, I know this is love, but

If I tell the world, I'll never say enough

I remember the little touches. The way his hand would gently land on her waist to guide her, or the way his eyes would light up when she walked into the room. They didn’t do that for me. It’s almost as if he was trapped in a prison, and she was the key. Lucky for him, he’s taken the key, but left behind the broken girl he shared a cell with. 

'Cause it was not said to you

And that's exactly what I need to do if I end up with you

“Y/n, no.” Lily said sternly and I shook my head, opening my mouth to protest. “No, no, no. Y/n, he cheated on you. He broke you. I don’t want to have to hold you as you sob again. I don’t want to see your heart crack even more.”

Tears welled in my eyes, “Lils, I miss him.”

She pulled me in, cradling my head against her chest and I cried softly, “I know, Y/n/n, I know.”

Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements

Even if it leads nowhere?

Or would it be a waste, even if I knew my place?

Should I leave it there?

“We can fix this. I’m willing to give you a chance.” I said to Sirius and he popped up.

“Really?” He asked and I nodded, keeping a straight face as he hugged me tightly. “You won’t regret this.”

Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements

Even if it leads nowhere?

“I hope not.”

I build myself up and fly around in circles

Waiting as my heart drops

“Oh, Y/n.” Marlene said as she shook her head.

Lily sighed in defeat. “I said it was a bad idea.”

I looked between the two, “I know, I know. But I really think he wants to change and make it better.” Thunder crashed lightly outside the window.

“There is no changing, no coming back from this, Y/n/n.”

And my back begins to tingle

Finally, could this be it, or?

“A flower for a flower.” A voice said as a small daisy came in front of my face. 

I looked up from my book with a smile, “Sirius, this is so beautiful.” I said as I twirled the flower in between my fingers.

“Just like you.” He said, his lips ghosting over mine.\

Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements

Even if it leads nowhere?

Or would it be a waste, even if I knew my place?

Should I leave it there?

Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements

Even if it leads nowhere? Yeah

“Y/n, I think you should leave Sirius.” James said as he sat down at my table in the library.

I furrowed my brows, taken aback, “What?”

James sighed, “I think you should leave Sirius.”

“And why would I do that?”

“I love him like a brother, but what he did was unforgivable. I hate seeing you give him another chance because the truth is, he doesn’t deserve it.”

I narrowed my eyes, “What’s going on?”

James contemplated something before shaking his head and standing back up, “Just don’t allow him to make the same mistakes. Don’t allow him to hurt you again.” He left.

Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements

Even if it leads nowhere?

“Where have you been?” I asked quietly as Sirius carefully tip toed into the common room.

He ran a hand through his messy black hair, “Oh, you’re awake.”

I nodded, closing my book and standing up. “It would seem so.”

“It’s late, you should go to bed, my love.” He said, pressing a soft kiss to my lips and running up the stairs to the boys dormitory. I closed my eyes and cursed him in my head, for the taste on his lips was heartbreakingly familiar. 

Or would it be a waste, even if I knew my place?

Should I leave it there?

The rain beat down heavily on me, the drops of water mixing with my tears as the wind carried away my sobs.

“Y/n!” Sirius yelled desperately.

“No!” I screamed back, turning around as I clutched tightly onto my robes. “Go away!”

The thunder rumbled loudly behind me as he stumbled forward, “Please!” His voice was hoarse as if he’d been crying. Anger filled my body, he had no right to be crying. No right.

Should I give up or should I just keep on chasing pavements?

Should I just keep on chasing pavements?

Oh-oh

“We can work this out, it was just a mistake, Y/n!” 

I looked up to the sky biting my lip hard as the rain fell into my eyes, making them sting. I shook my head.

“Go!” I yelled again, turning around and continuing my trek to the forest.

“y/-”

“I said go!” Lighting struck the ground between us, throwing him backwards onto the grass. He looked at me in fear and scrambled to his feet before sprinting away. I fell to my knees sobbing, ashamed I let him break me again.

Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements

Even if it leads nowhere?

I quickly packed my suitcase, Marlene and Lily helping.

“I’m so sorry guys.” I apologized, guilt filling my body.

Lily stopped what she was doing and looked at me before sighing and pulling me into a tight hug. Marlene joined after, adding her arms to the mix as well.

“It’s what you need.” Lily whispered.

“You dramatic teenager.” Marlene added and we all laughed quietly.

“That’s me.”

Or would it be a waste, even if I knew my place?

Should I leave it there?

I sighed as I sat down in the Great Hall of Ilvermorny. It was so much different than Hogwarts, yet, exactly the same. I quietly ate my food and read my book, not bothering to look up and try to converse with the empty seats around me.

Someone sat down in front of me and I looked up to see a boy with a warm smile.

“Hi.” He said softly and I swallowed my food awkwardly.

“Hey.” I responded.

“I’m Alastor Greenwood, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”

I smiled slightly, “Y/n L/n, the pleasure is mine.”\

Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements

Even if it leads nowhere?

Princess of Candy Coated Lies, Modern Royalty AU- King Peter Steele & Single Mother OFC, Soulmate AU

Chapter 17

SUMMARY: Single mother Molly Anne Harper does the best she can do, given her circumstances- since she broke up with her ex-boyfriend by sending him to jail, she’s been struggling to be the best mother to twin daughters while working barely minimum waged jobs. But when she meets her soulmate- King Peter Thomas Ratajczyk of Brooklyn- she quickly finds herself falling heads over heels in love with the guarded, battle damaged ruler. Likewise, Peter finds himself with a family of a women and two little girls who call him daddy. But what happens when their father gets out from behind bars and starts to cause mayhem?

A Soulmate AU where you never know what the first words your soulmate says to you until they say it

CHAPTER WARNINGS: none applicable

A NOTE FROM THE AUTHORESS: This fic is dedicated to SkullWoggle on AO3 and @rock-a-noodle on Tumblr.

WORD COUNT: 1251

“Oh wow, look at this dress, Molly Anne!” Princess Annette said as she pulled a dress off from the dress rack and held it up. “Isn’t it pretty?”

“Uh…” I eyeballed the giant, poofy dress which honestly reminded me more of a heavily frosted cupcake. “It’s a bit too much for my taste, for certain.”

It was the next day, and the five Ratajczyk princesses- Annette, Pamela, Barabra, Patricia and Cathy, had treated me to a day at Brooklyn’s top bridal salon. The eldest sister had told me that as a wedding gift, they were contributing two hundred dollars each for my dress.

I was staring blankly at a random dress when a bridal consultant came up to is. Dressed in a smart black skirt and a sweet smile, she automatically made me feel beautiful.

“Hello, your highnesses!” she greeted us in a cheerful tone of voice. “Who’s my bride?”

I raised my hand timidly, Annette gently pushing me forward.

“I’m Molly Anne,” I meeped, shaking her hand.

“Hello Molly Anne, I’m Britney,” she introduced herself. “Tell me about what your dream dress looks like.”

“I just want to feel pretty,” I explained. “I don’t want a white dress if you can help it, though. Something I can wear again, most definitely! My budget is a strict thousand dollars- I cannot afford to go over not want to go over even by a penny.”

“Where will you say your vows?” was Brittney’s next question.

“The king and I will be saying our I do’s in a garden,” I answered vaguely- the king had told me to be secretive about where we would be getting married as to keep myself and the twins safe.

“Okay, I think I have an idea of what you’ll want to try on!” Brittney took me off into a room to wait while she went and pulled some dresses for me to try on.

When she came back ten minutes later, she was hauling five or six different dresses over her shoulder, which she hung up before asking me which one I wanted to try on.

“Surprise me,” I told her, smiling when she pulled out a soft bubblegum pink tea length dress with a tulle skirt and fitted bodice.

“Do you have shoes picked out?” Brittney asked me as she laced me into the corset styled back.

“I’m possibly going to do embroidered flats, like maybe Converses,” I told her, blanching at the sight of me in the mirror. “Uh, no. this dress clashes horribly with my hair.”

Brittney just laughed as she helped me out of the dress and into a second, this one being a soft baby blue with glittery tinsel.

“This one is pretty, but…” I trailed off, unable to put my finger onto why I didn’t care for this bridal dress.

“It doesn’t match your wedding aesthetic?” she finished for me as she helped me into dress number three.

Dress number three was a pale green mermaid with white lacey sleeves. I told her that I liked the color, but not the fit. Finally, it came down to the final two dresses.

One was very clearly a wedding dress, a soft white color with colorful embroidery scattered across the full trumpet shaped skirt, the fitted bodice and the slightly poofy sleeves. The second dress was simpler, also a soft white in color, the skirt coming to my knees with elbow length sleeves and bright colorful flower embroidery on the skirt and bodice.

“The second one,” I told her with an excited squeak, stepping into the dress and then promptly bursting into tears of joy when she zipped it up. “It’s perfect!”

Brittney just beamed at me as she handed me a tissue to dry my eyes with before opening the door and letting me sweep out into the area that the five princesses occupied.

“Oh, you look so gorgeous, Molly Anne!” gasped Barbara, wiping at watering eyes.

“I do think that this is your dress!” smiled Cathy as she clapped her hands together.

“I thought you would pick something a bit more,” Pamela said before letting out a shrug. “But this is a good surprise!”

“I love this dress,” I sniffled happily, giving the princesses a twirl. “I think this is my dress- what says you royals?”

I was met with a chorus of agreements and I smiled as the sight of me in the mirror. I ran my hands down the sides and froze.

“And I found the best part about this dress!” I announced with a giggle before showing them my finding. “Pockets!”

Everyone laughed at my childish discovery, Brittney glancing at the price tag.

“This dress is seven hundred and seventy nine dollars,” she announced. “So that will leave you with two hundred twenty one dollars to spend!”

“Do you want to get anything else?” Cathy asked me in a kind voice.

“No, I don’t think so,” I was unable to wipe the please smile from my face. “I think the dress is honestly enough as is.”

“Are you sure? I can get the veil that has been used for the past nine generations, if you would like,” Princess Patricia offered me.

“You mean the lace cathedral veil that’s on display at the Brooklyn historical museum?” I asked, automatically blanching. The legendary Ratajczyk royal family cathedral veil was a beautiful thing of history, a delicate thing that I knew would cause ever more anxiety over me making sure it wouldn’t become dirty or torn. “Honestly, I’d rather not. The king and I are to be wed outside after all.”

“Ah, good point,” she smiled. “But do you at least want to wear any of the displayed family jewels as your something old?”

“I’ve always liked those simple blue sapphire ear studs,” I confessed.

“Yes, with that jeweled flower pendant?” she grinned. “Perfect! I’ll bring them with me when I meet you and Peter and the girls beforehand, alright?”

I smiled before turning and returning back into my assigned dressing room to change back into my jeans and turtleneck sweater.

PART ONE | PART TWO | READ + COMMENT ON AO3

Part Three

The Adults Are Talking

—

The weekend just after Winter begins, Damon updated WatchOutVillainz.com with a renewed vigour.

He made sure to check for typos, and found with satisfaction that there was only 1, even in his disastrously drunken stupor. So far, this was the best post he’d ever written, and the traffic it was getting was crazy.

The next day, he got a text message from an unknown number.

BLOCKED NUMBER sent at 10:25am: Might want to type with your eyes open next time, mate.

Unperturbed, Damon went to check on his blog stats.

He was pleased to see that there was a 26% increase of traffic since his last posting.

He took a swig of his coffee mixture – Caroline calls it a mixture because he makes it while fighting off the hangover pounding in his teeth, and mixes in any liquid that didn’t require him to stir, mix or slosh. Today’s mixture was coffee, orange juice and leftover wine from Bonnie’s glass from the night before.

With a wince, he swallowed and clicked on his blog.

He’d made the post exclusively to showcase their new winter additions to their superhero outfits. Attached at the top of the latest post was a picture of Feisty Fire and Blonde Distraction with fur-trimmed capes. The text underneath, which went on for quite a few minutes of scrolling, was just the number 9 typed over and over again.

—

Caroline kicked open the door to the warehouse with unnecessary force: the new boots she was wearing was much suited for winter, with heavy leather flat soles that gripped debris-littered rooftops securely.

She kicked it with unnecessary force because it had been four years, and Lizzie and Josie were turning twenty, and she’d just gotten a text from Alaric telling her with regret that she probably shouldn’t come, seeing as her daughters now look older than her.

It takes her mere seconds to text back her outrage that they’ll be celebrating with close family and friends who all know of her nature, and that it’s really not his place to say whether or not she should be there for her own daughters—

“Good for you,” the vampire she was stalking praised, nodding profusely. “Darling, I can’t be-lieve you even let him keep your own kids away from you like that!”

“The lawyer you recommended was really good,” Bonnie smiled. “We were all really grateful.”

“That fire you’re aiming at me doesn’t imply appreciation at all, sweets.”

“Kol,” Caroline groaned. “I’ve had a long weekend, alright? It’s cold, this cape is heavy, and you breached contract—”

“There was nothing in the contract that said I couldn’t open a fight club,” Kol snarked, his voice extra annoying because it’s amplified. His voice was amplified, because he was speaking into a voice amplifier in the middle of a boxing ring. He had to amplify his voice, because the roar of the crowd almost drowned him out.

“It clearly said no more fighting.” Bonnie snaps her fingers; one of the werewolves that was about to lunge at his opponent, a banshee, is tossed off trajectory with a long, wet whine.

—

“You girls got boring,” Kol whines. “I regret paying for my WOV platinum membership.”

Bonnie and Caroline didn’t answer, busy as they were immobilising him with a variety of ropes, velvet, and chains.

“Seriously,” Kol continued as if Bonnie wasn’t using the toe of her boot to flip him onto his stomach, “the only upgrade I got was being able to choose the colour of my font.”

“Damon is a scammer if there ever was any,” Caroline lectured him. “You should know better, dumbass.”

Kol finally scowled. “I resent that.”

His scowl melted into a look that was parts amazement and arousal when Bonnie turned her palms upward and outward, and he levitated into the air.

Bobbing gently in front of them like a peaceful yacht out on a dawn excursion, Kol asked, “It’s not nice to accost a lad on his first night out on the town.”

“It’s your second night. You said the exact same thing yesterday, just before you signed a contract that said you’d quit it with your assholery,” Bonnie said with an eyeroll. “Do you need to sign up for our twelve-step programme?”

“Oh, so you’ve expanded! Congratulations are in order.”

“Thank you,” Bonnie and Caroline responded automatically, because while they were vigilantes, they were still southern belles raised with good manners.

“Anyway, I’m only going at it because I’m expected to be on my best behaviour this weekend.” It was a testament to the sorta-kinda friendship he had since the days of their mismatched Mystery Gang vs. Whatever Shit the Originals Schemed That Week that he was even explaining himself. He used to maim first, offer explanations never.

“And why’s that?” Caroline maintained the conversation, just because she could. And because she was feeling a bit useless now that Bonnie was doing most of the womanpower.

“I’ve got to attend a children’s birthday party,” Kol said, as if he was going to be having an operation to remove his liver without anaesthesia.

“Say that again.”

“I’ve got to attend a children’s birthday party.”

“Sorry, again?”

“I said, I’ve got to attend a children’s birthday party.”

“One last time for the audience?”

“I said, I’ve—”

“How the hell were you invited?” Caroline seethed.

“Everywhere Hope goes, we go,” Kol shrugged. “What, you weren’t?”

He bobbed a bit in the air as Bonnie flicks Caroline a quick look of mild panic.

There was a storm brewing in Caroline’s eyes – or whatever you could see of them behind her mask, which she’d taken care to cover most of her face now that it was winter. “No.”

“Who’s ‘we’?” Caroline asked with narrowed eyes.

Kol sighed. “Looks like we are down for one magnificent family reunion, sister.”

So horrified was Caroline that he had called her that, she barely registered knocking Kol out with the heel of her boot until he lay crumpled –

Or would have, if he wasn’t still floating.

“Caroline,” Bonnie began. “We do not exercise too much authority over the boots. They’re YSL.”

live wire waltz (vampire: the masquerade, 20,515 words. WIP. Rated M.) VTM longfic expanding the events of the game. follows my malkavian fledgling as the main plot and her frighteningly easy departure from humanity, plus a sub-plot following a ventrue whose clan drama becomes mixed up in the drama of LA kindred. 

partition (vampire the masquerade, 1774 words. Complete. fledgling/beckett, mentions of polyamory. Rated T.) Just a cute oneshot for Mitchell & Beckett surrounding her love for his hands. Fluff. 

negligible vices (vampire: the masquerade, 1344 words. Complete. nines rodriguez/ventrue oc. Rated M.) Katerina and Nines spend years prior to bloodlines dancing around a committed relationship, for reasons neither of them are completely forthcoming about. An angsty snippet of this pre-relationship period between them. 

liaison (vampire: the masquerade, 662 words. Complete. nines rodrigiez/ventrue oc. Rated M.) Fade to Black where Katerina and Nines hook up in the back of her sire’s stolen Rolls Royce. 

polite etiquette (vampire: the masquerade, 963 words. Complete. nines rodriguez/ventrue oc. Rated T.) An oddly sweet moment where Katerina proves without a doubt that she isn’t plagued by the same jealous tendencies other members of her clan are. Nines happily humours this. 

fault lines (vampire the masquerade, 1251 words. Complete. fledgling/velvet velour, mentions of polyamory. Rated M.) Mitchell is in an odd mood and attempts to push it aside so she doesn’t ruin the evening. VV isn’t put off by something so trivial and adjusts accordingly. Light SH descriptions.  

hot sugar (vampire the masquerade -- parliament of knives, 3758 words. Complete. sheriff qui/toreador PoK MC. Rated E.) Qui gets road head from one very eager Seneschal. That’s it, that’s the fic. 

out of print (vampire: the masquerade, 1494 words. Complete. nines rodriguez/ventrue oc. Rated T.) A look at a more domestic interlude between Katerina and Nines. Mostly fluff with a light tap of angst.
