Self FicRec - Feb. 2023

Thanks @blairsanne for the tag!

Rules: Recommended us 3 of your fics. 1 that is the "most popular" and 2 that you consider as "hidden gems."

--

Most popular:

According to Ao3 How We Live Now is the most popular in terms of hits by a long ways but it does have 149 chapters. Stitches has 2 more subscriptions than HWLN, but about 1/3 of the “hits,” but it does have multiple parts grouped in the series.

--

Hidden gems: AKA stories that I had a lot of fun writing, but appear pretty low when my Ao3 stories are sorted by hits. 

Wintergreen - Just a bit of Christmas / Winter Holidays spirit. Can be Fili & Kili or Fili/Kili depending on how you want to read it. I just love the concept of the story.

Seeing Shadows - 14k of a Fili/Kili Arthurian AU that nobody asked for with Fili as Arthur and Kili as Merlin/Lady of the Lake. Warning for ambiguous ending. This one has gotten a high ratio of comments to hits, but I think the niche subject makes it more “hidden.”

The Wild Hunt - A Fili/Kili Faerie kidnapping with Fili as a Fae on a big black motorbike. Utter nonsense. But I had fun writing it.

--

No pressure tags: @alwaysfarawayeyes, and anyone else who wants a go! Most people I would tag have already been tagged. 🧡

Kili woke to silence, the cozy warmth of too many covers and an empty bed. Half asleep he buried his head a bit deeper into the pillows, reluctantly stretching one arm out of the mountain of blankets tucked around him. The air was cold and there was barely any heat left on the other side of the bed.

Kili gave a half awake murmur, both of appreciation for the warm cozy bunker of blankets his brother had provided him with and in protest for finding himself alone in them and their big bed.

Slowly, not quite ready to face the world yet, Kili pulled his arm back into his cocoon and burrowed deeper into the covers, to let the darkness and warmth claim him once more.

Gathering FiKi - Fic Rec Bingo

Column #3

Wartime Christmas by mosslover - SERIES

M, FiKi 3,478 words - 2015 - Complete

For two RAF pilots who fell in love, Christmas during the time of war brings moments of love and longing, hope and sadness, separation, and perhaps a reunion.

Chase the Wind by DrakkHammer

E, FiKi 241,035 words - 2014--2016 - Incomplete

Sadly Hvit-Ravn deleted her Tumblr and her Imgur account so the pictures no longer appear in the story and they’re really hard to find on Tumblr because ... tags. Some of them can be found on Pinterest. Like this one. Isn’t it glorious!?

Kili went by the nickname of Chase on the BMX bike racing circuit. He never rode anything but a Chase, the world’s elite racing bike, and he was pushing for a spot on the Chase BMX World Cup team. There was a shot at the Olympics in Rio on the board as well. Unfortunately there was also a drunk who didn’t make a turn. Kili never even saw the driver who crushed his spine, his legs and his dreams. Now life means dealing with a very different set of wheels and priorities.

Fili is an artist and photographer from Auckland to research his ancestry. His showing in London did well and he is trading the sun of NZ for the emerald damp of Ireland. He’s left other things; too and for the first time in years he feels he might have a future. He just didn’t expect it to include a gorgeous young Irishman with chocolate eyes, a wild mane of dark hair and a family that could give any prospective suitor second thoughts.

Red, Red Africa by Anonymous

M, Darkhawk 2,938 words - 2019 - Complete

He came to Africa because he was an idealist, back then. The thought he could help stop the worst from happening.

Roping the Wind by SaucyWench ( @saucywenchwritingblog​ )

M, FiKi 103,722 words - 2014--2016 - Incomplete

I’m stretching the space’s prompt again. There are ponies. They do watch them.

Fili is a cowboy who just wants to be able to find a place he can call home and people he can call his family. When he stumbles across what seems like the perfect job, will he be able to let his past go, or will it ruin everything? 

Discord and Love by jynx - SERIES

E, FiKi 97,434 words - 2015--2016 - Complete

I read this one from my old Tumblr account (it was eaten in the great NSFW purge because how dare I point out how stupid it was). But it was all posted to Ao3 which makes it easier to find and read in order!

Fili and Kili are brothers, separated by divorce, time, and distance. Neither realizes who the other is as they embark on a journey of love and discord.

[legolaslovely]

All that golden hair, you just know Fili loves having his hair between your fingers. Hair unbound and in your hands, he finds his peace. He is like a big cat lying languidly between your thighs. When you tug on his hair, you awaken him - a growl falls from his lips, his eyes blaze, and leaving his sanctuary between your legs, he prowls over you. Fili knows in spite of the strength carried in his body, he is captured. With your fingers fisted in his hair, he is willingly your tamed lion. 🦁

I can’t! I am SQUEALING!!!!!! Ugh no words. Well done, anon, well freaking done. Only his One can time the lion. 💛🦁💛

[i-am-still-bb]

I already submitted my obituary for this story.

A+

10/10 - definitely recommend reading

The man bun, the belt, the stilted innuendo conversation 🧡

I am totally the person that drives around with a light out until I get pulled over. I actually drove around with expired tags for 8 months. 😬

I did keep get distracted by thinking that their bottoms must have been cold. 😆

Serve and Protect

Pairing: Modern!Cop!Fili x female reader

Words: 3,104

Warnings: Rated E, 18+. Unprotected intercourse. Fili is a cop and has a man bun 🤤

Summary: Fili is a police officer in the midst of a boring shift until he notices someone in need of assistance with a flat tire, and then suddenly his night becomes far more interesting.

A/N: Yes, I realize this is completely unrealistic but I have a thing for cops so just let me live my life. Prompts used were Fili (modern), "Can I help you with that?" and Uniform Sex.

---

It had been a quiet shift so far for Fili, much quieter than usual, and to be honest, he was getting bored and found himself yawning as much as he was breathing; the stale, lukewarm coffee in his cup holder no longer doing the trick to keep him awake.

He flicked on his radar gun again and directed it out the corner of his window, happy that none of the local citizens had been speeding more than a few kilometers over the limit, but secretly hoped someone would blast by his cruiser so he could turn on his lights and sirens and press the pedal down on his own car.

Still, law-abiding drivers casually passed him without reason for concern, and he sighed as he checked his watch to see how many more torturous hours needed to pass until his twelve on the clock were up and he could go home just as everyone else was waking up to start their day.

Thorin - being the ever-strict Chief of Police - had recently switched the line-up of officers on duty so that Kili was no longer on the same shift as him, making these long nights even more so with the lack of entertainment from his brother and his usual tomfoolery over the radio that landed them both in trouble on more than one occasion.

Fili glanced up as a little, dark green sedan passed by, noticing one of the taillights was burnt out, as well as the brake light on the same side as the driver slowed before an on-coming stop sign.

For a moment he considered following them and pulling them over to administer the hefty $200 fine, but thought better of it in not wanting to ruin their night. Instead, he jotted down the license plate number and would see to it that a warning found its way into their mailbox instead, wanting the owner to put the money toward the repair rather than the penalty.

After another thirty minutes, Fili pulled out onto the road in search of a new location to sit idly in, praying a call with something more interesting would come over his radio, only to be disappointed when it remained silent.

Up ahead in the dark, the faint glow of a single red light flared in the distance, forcing him to squint to try to make out what it was. As he neared, he chuckled to himself, discovering that the very car whose light was burnt out was now pulled off to the side of the road with a flat tire.

"Karma truly is a bitch," he said to himself, turning the switch to fire up his red and blue lights as he pulled up behind the disabled vehicle.

His headlights shined brightly on the driver; a young woman crouched down beside the deflated tire who appeared to be doing her best at trying to change it out.

Fili stepped out of his cruiser and casually sauntered over, hands on his belt that secured his gun and cuffs, biting back his smile as he listened to the slew of curses coming from the stranded woman's mouth.

"Can I help you with that?" he purred with amusement, earning a glare from the woman whose eyes were the most striking colour he'd ever seen.

You wanted to say no, to pretend like you had everything under control in favour of not having the cop who just so happened to be the most gorgeous specimen you laid eyes on assist you even though you truly didn't have a clue what you were doing.

You sighed and put down the wrench you had been arbitrarily turning on bolts, standing so you were now face to face with the officer who turned out to be even sexier than your first glance at him had revealed.

"Uhh, yeah, please…" you stuttered out, wiping your hands on your jeans before quickly correcting yourself. "Officer."

His title slipped from your inviting lips so seductively that a rush of blood shot straight through to his cock, and although he could have your spare tire switched out within a matter of a few short minutes, he fully intended to take his time.

"My pleasure," he grinned, watching your eyes flit over the dimples on his cheeks and you swallow thickly, and he hoped your thoughts about him were equally as illicit as the ones he was having about you.

Hoping he hadn't noticed your extinguished taillight yet, you leaned your body against the back of your car to cover it, and admired as your new-found hero got to work with deft hands.

"I was going to pull you over earlier," he said, glancing up at you through long, blond lashes, his eyebrows rising pointedly on his forehead.

"Oh?" you questioned, purposefully being ignorant to what he was referring to and playfully tipping your head to the side while you crossed your arms under your chest to give your breasts a perkier lift.

The Officer nodded toward where your bum rested, and you noticed his eyes lingered there, and not necessarily on the light itself.

"You need to get that fixed. I could fine you for more than it would cost to get the repair done," he explained, making you internally curse yourself for having put it off for as long as you had. "Luckily for you, I'm a good cop." He winked before returning his attention to your tire, making you thankful as you knew the look on your face was giving away every impure thought you were having about the authority figure who was kneeling conveniently at the same level as your aching core.

"There's a reason I've always had a thing for cops. I mean- appreciated cops."

You wanted to disappear from the embarrassment that flooded over you, but it was diminished as soon as he gave a genuine chuckle that didn't help your case in keeping your composure at all.

Continuing to admire the sight before you, you took in all the parts of him available to your eye; his wavy hair slicked back into a small bun at the base of his neck, the dense patch of chest hair that curled out over the collar of his uniform, the way the veins in his thick forearms flexed as he torqued down the bolts with the wrench. God, you were a mess.

With his task finished, he stood and rubbed his greasy hands together, flashing you another smile that reached his piercingly blue eyes, sending you straight back into the pit of sin you were quickly sinking in.

"Thank you, Officer Durin," you said sweetly, reading the name labeled on his broad chest.

"It's my duty to um, serve and protect the good citizens of Erebor." The insinuation and emphasis in his words made your heart stop and your skin shiver with an intense rush of arousal, and your hands searched for grip on the smooth trunk of your car as your legs suddenly felt like they could no longer support you.

"Although, something tells me that you might not be so good."

The way he squinted his eyes at you and tipped his head slightly like he was trying to figure you out made you want to pounce on him to kiss the smug grin off his face, but thankfully he spoke again to break the silence as any words you could conjure up were stuck in your throat.

"And please, call me Fili," he added, those enchanting eyes penetrating into you like they could see every thought happening behind your own.

“Right. I’m-” You went to give your name in return, only to be cut off by him.

“I know.” He was too confident, still holding your gaze with an intensity that had you mesmerized.

“Of course you do,” you smiled, realizing he had immediate access to such information on the computer located in his vehicle, and you tugged your lower lip in your teeth before continuing. "Is there any way I can thank you? Considering you changed my flat and decided not to give me a ticket for my lights…" You twisted on the spot slightly, angling your body toward the dark brake light beside you, maintaining eye contact with Fili in a completely innocent way.

"I reckon I can think of a couple ways."

As if you were drawn to each other by a magnetic pull, you met in the middle of what little distance remained between you, your lips slotting together to share an intense kiss that made you whine into his mouth.

You touched him everywhere your hands dared to explore, the unconstitutional act of touching an officer making you bolder in your quest as you pulled at his uniform and eventually carded your hands through the downy curls on his chest.

Fili leaned against you until your back bent over the slope of your trunk, his hands returning the favour by pawing greedily at your breasts beneath your shirt and then moving to slide up them your back under the material. He effortlessly unclasped your bra, and thanking the flaw in your rubber wheel for bursting on one of the quietest roads going out of town, you lifted your shirt over your head and allowed him a view of your bare chest that was highlighted erotically in the flashing red and blue lights of his cruiser. He growled and his chest heaved with a steadying breath as he ground the hardness in his pants against the apex of your spread legs, and his mouth dove to capture one of your peaked nipples, his searing tongue swirling around it to make you moan into the quiet, night air. As he intoxicated you with his talented lips and tongue, Fili's fingers trailed slowly down your waist and began discreetly unfastening your jeans; your mind focused solely on his other ministrations so much that you were a little surprised when you found your pants stripped from you and his fingers hooked in the waist of your panties to rid you of them next.

"What happens if someone drives by?" you asked, your voice trembling with lust and your stomach quivered when his knuckle grazed your swollen, waiting bud through the damp cotton covering it.

"I'll arrest them," he claimed roughly, continuing to focus on his task.

He tugged your panties down your thighs, forcing you to lift your bum off the cool steel of your car to allow him, and as you sat spread and nude before him, you thought how you'd never felt so powerful.

"I've always wanted to be fucked by a cop," you purred, inhaling a deep breath that you would hold as you waited for him to make his next move.

"Let's make that happen, then, shall we?"

You met in another passionate kiss, your hands flying up to hold either side of his face where his neatly kept beard felt exceptionally soft, and you relished in the taste of him as his smooth tongue danced with yours until you both became so needy you couldn't take much more.

Breaking for air, you hastily ripped the end of his belt out of the loop and opened it, impatient in unwrapping the impossibly hard length of flesh that strained against his pants, an amused chuckle rumbling from his chest as you worked to free him.

You sucked in a sharp breath when it sprung free out of his boxers, the size of him a very pleasant surprise, and your mouth watered in seeing the silky, bulbous head leaking from the tip.

Fili lined up between your legs, his cock wagging at your wet opening, a gasp sounding from you when he nudged your tingling folds. His arms braced on either side of your body and he leaned in close to you, his lips hovering closely to yours.

"Are you ready, beautiful?" he asked, his eyes flickering between your kiss-bruised lips and your eyes that were heavy-lidded with a drunken lust.

"Yes, Officer."

Your respect for his title seemed to stroke his ego, and his lips curled into an amused smile when he interlocked them with yours again. With a hard push he was inside you, and your mouth fell from his as a lewd cry broke the sound of wet kisses and skin moving upon painted metal. The stretch was almost painful, but you welcomed each thrust with eagerness as you sent your own hips forward to meet his blows, your hands desperately gripping his clothed shoulders where your fingers carded over the embroidered patches that marked his loyalty to the service.

Fili's fingers dug into the soft skin on your hips, dragging you further onto his cock until you were barely sitting on your car anymore, his raw need for you evident in his ferocious pounding and biting kisses on your collarbone.

"Stand up and turn around." His demand was short and impatient, and you obeyed immediately, smiling as he assisted you effortlessly and pulled your hips back so your bum stuck out toward his lonely cock.

Your laughter died out in a whining moan as he filled you again, his hands rough and restless as they spread your cheeks apart and held onto you hard enough to leave marks that you would bear for days.

Fili fucked you harder than he ever had fucked anyone before; spurred on by the simplicity of how unprofessional this was but mostly from how purely sinful your body felt taking him, and he knew this wouldn't be the last time he'd engage in something so carnal with you.

"You're such a good girl, taking this so well." he growled in your ear, half tempted to grab your hair and pull on it so he could attack your neck with nipping kisses, but he refrained, choosing to work harder so he could feel you fall apart around his throbbing cock. His hand reached between your body and the car, finding your clit to circle your leaking wetness on it until your moans grew louder and more unhinged, and when he felt your inner muscles squeeze his shaft he knew he was done.

Working together to create a synchronized rhythm that felt as if it had been practiced time and time again, you came simultaneously, that brilliant electric bliss consuming you as you felt him pulse inside your fluttering walls.

His harsh actions turned softer, making you smile as your breathing steadied and your heart rate worked to return to normal; the gentle caress of his hands on your back and the press of his soft lips on your exposed shoulder making you shiver with the cool breeze.

Fili retreated from you reluctantly with a groan, and before he had the consideration to conceal his naked bits first, he collected your discarded garments and handed them to you with a smile.

You returned it with your own sheepish grin, finding it hard to believe you had been naked and getting railed by one of the town's finest only moments ago, and you refused to peel your eyes away from him as you watched him do up his pants and smooth his hair that had become disheveled back into the bun at the base of his neck.

"I guess I should be getting home now," you said, forgetting what you had been doing before the event of your tire going flat spiraled into this blissful meeting.

"I should escort you, just to make sure you get there safely," he said, his hands falling to hold your waist as he looked dreamily into your eyes again.

"Is that part of your job description, or a way to get an invite into my bed?"

He chuckled, and you wondered if you'd ever liked the sound of something more. "My shift doesn't end for a while yet, but when I come back, I'll have a warrant with me."

His grin broke out the dimples on his cheeks and you swore you were about to melt; another hot rush of arousal barrelling through your body at the thought of what this happy accident could turn into.

"Then, if you insist on seeing me home, I won't refuse," you said, feeling his eyes on you as you walked around your car to the driver's side.

Your stomach felt like it would truly burst with how many butterflies fluttered around in it, constantly finding yourself checking your rearview mirror to be sure Fili was still following behind you in his cruiser.

When you arrived at your house and pulled in your driveway, he pulled in behind you and turned the ignition off as you walked over to his door. His window was rolled down already, allowing you to lean in with your arms folded on top of the frame to give him a glimpse of your breasts, and he didn't bother to hide the fact he was staring at them.

Like he had missed the feel of your lips on his already, he leaned toward you and kissed you fervently, his hand reaching up to cradle your cheek that made you moan in response to his need for you.

"You're incredible," he praised when he eventually pulled away, his thumb moving to smooth over your lower lip as he absentmindedly licked his own.

"Well, now you know where to find me," you whispered, running the tip of your finger tantalizingly slow along his jawline and down his neck until he let out a strangled growl, his temptation for you growing quickly. "I expect to see you later."

You kissed him again, slowly rolling your tongue around his until a needy moan poured out of him and into you, making you eager to see all the ways you could make him croon to your touch.

"Feel free to pull me over any time you'd like, Officer," you said as you backed away from him, a devilish smile playing on your swollen lips.

"Fili." He reminded you sternly, wanting to hear his name called by you over and over again.

"Fili." You purred in confirmation, noticing how his eyes darkened with raw desire before you turned around and made your way inside.

Fili was rock hard again as he backed out of your driveway and set on his way to find something to distract him until his shift was over, albeit impossible.

His phone buzzed in his pocket, and stopping on the side of your quiet street, he pulled it out - not without a struggle due to the tightness of his pants - and huffed when he saw a text from Kili.

How's the shift been without me, brother? Boring?

Not exactly.

Make Me See Stars Again by goldenlionprince and liddie

Kíli Oaks never thought his ad for the spare room in his little house by the lake in the middle of the forest would work but suddenly he finds himself with a tenant who needs a long vacation. Coming from the big city Fíli Durin isn't what Kíli was wishing for but slowly he starts to open up to the quiet blond business man that seems to have a sadness about him that Kíli finds himself relating to more than he’d like to admit.

This story is one of my favorites. These two were probably the two writers who got me into FiKi in the first place (and from there it was a slippery, but not unpleasant, slope to Anders/Mitchell and DarkHawk.)

I’ve read it several times and it is 126,276 words of wonderfulness. 

It’s like a warm blanket and a hot cup of tea while it rains outside.

[legolaslovely]

Hugs for replying to my ask for Fili love*screeching*!So here's me returning the favour with an imagine. With his touch and his mouth he’ll make you utter incoherent sentences along the lines of “Fili… just…” – “What, my love?*a smirk* – “Fili… I…” – “Yes, my love?”*an even bigger smirk*. Right before succumbing to his own desire for you that will bring a different expression. Almost a pained one, with that beautiful crease between his brows and parted lips, so hard it is to contain the longing.

GUAHSKFADBFUSBFK I HAVE READ THIS LIKE SEVEN TIMES THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU I HAVE NO WORDS PLEASE EVERYONE ENJOY THE STOMACH FLIPPING HOTNESS HOLY MMMMMMMOLY FILIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII

Modern AU: Fili: I love skeeball. I'm a skeeball champion! Kili: you are? Fili: yeah! Kili: in what world? Fili: >:( THIS ONE!!!!

Okay. 1. This is hilarious and perfect and I WANT IT.

2. You have no idea how important skeeball is to me. I am a skeeball champion. Last time I played (and I say this with such pride), I hit the 10,000 three times. So many tickets. I got a Reptar keychain.

3. So yes, Modern AU Fili is a champ, but it’s lowkey, he goes to the arcade once in a while with Kili or Gimli or whoever, has a few beers and plays for fun, usually giving the tickets to the kids who gather to watch so they can split them and get small keychains or stuffed animals or whatever and it’s just fun. Then he goes one night and splits a pitcher with Ki, Gimli and his new bf Legolas, and he goes over to the skeeball machines and sees you just freaking racking up the points. You hit the ten thousand a couple times and he cracks up at your little jumps of joy or small whoohoo fist shake and sees you leave a pile of tickets in the machine. “Don’t forget those,” he says. “Nah, I’ll leave ‘em for the kids over there. I just like to play once in a while.” And he goes and pays for another game and that turns into a friendly competition which turns into meeting Kili, and arcade dates, and dinners, and movie nights, and a long term relationship, and moving in together. Then he brings you back to the arcade one night and asks if you wanna play and you say duh and he pays for the game and clicks the button and the only thing that falls down in the ball window is a ring box and you grab it and turn and he’s on one knee.

[legolaslovely]

Ugh, devastating- tell me about it! What a dream he is, a sweet little dream. I love the thought of young Fili growing into his confidence. He’s earned every ounce! My heart is full!!! You’ve done it again Dragonsquill!

That Smile of His, Fili-centric, G Rating

This ficlet is a gift for faerytale-wings, whose birthday was yesterday.  :)  She draws gorgeous forge Filis and is also one of the three peeps behind feelsforfili and I wanted to say thanks for those. 

She gave me permission to post it here, since it’s inspired by her forge Filis.  :D

——

That Smile of His

On the eve of his 61st birthday, Fíli’s uncle brought him to the forge and told him he would be trusted with the work while Thorin was away.  “Only repairs,” the prince warned, “and simple work.  Nothing too complex.  We’ll work up to that.”  

Fíli wore his most serious Heir of Durin face as he solemnly accepted the key.  If perhaps he had a tiny dance of joy when he was all alone, well.  There was no one around to see it.  

The best thing about being considered old and skilled enough to work the forge himself was the fact that this job guaranteed Fíli freedom from his old one: keeping an eye on much younger cousins and a not-so-younger but troublesome brother who should be well able to look after himself.

There was something soothing about the noises of the forge, the crackle of fire, the hiss of metal, the steady clang of the hammer.  It should have been cacophonous, almost painful to the ear, but the steady predictability of it, the promise of eventual beauty, were a far cry from the constant demands of-

“Fíli!”

Fíli sighed.  He knew that voice.

“Freja,” he said without turning, his eyes carefully watching the hiss of steam over the cooling barrel, “what are you doing here?”

“Amad sent Gimli to buy vegetables,” the little girl answered with characteristic cheer.  Fíli turned to give her a disapproving look.  She shrugged it off like water.  Freja had managed to climb onto the counter, and her boots kicked merrily against the polished wood.  “I talked him into letting me come here to watch.”

Gimli was Freja’s big brother, meant to keep an eye on her while their parents were working.  He was…semi-diligent in this task, seeming to think any of several sets of eyes would do when he had other things to be getting on with.

Fíli had stopped agreeing to watch Freja for him when he became a proper apprentice.  Sneaking her in without asking was apparently the siblings’ solution to that problem.

“Watch?” Fíli asked, crossing to the basin of cool water he kept far from the flames, dipping in a clean cloth and swiping it over the sweat and soot clinging to his skin.  Drops slid along his jaw and down his neck, slipping along his collarbone to rain cooling moisture to his chest and arms.  It felt divine.  “There’s nothing to watch here.”

“Yeah, that’s what I thought,” Freja agreed, even as her dark eyes took him in appraisingly.  Fíli felt strange indeed having a girl of thirty looking him over like something at market.  “But there were three girls in town who said the best entertainment in the mountain was,” her face scrunched up as she thought of the right words, “um … watching Prince Fíli at the forge in naught but a leather apron.”

Fíli, who had mistakenly dipped a cup into his basin and taken a sip in the middle of this little speech, spluttered.  “What?!” he demanded, and no his voice did not go up high and squeak a little, he was an Heir of Durin and they didn’t do such things.

Freja scratched at the feather-soft curls on her chin.  “Ardis said it was a shame you had to wear trousers, but Glyrna says it doesn’t matter ‘cause those bits are hidden behind the counter anyway.”  

Fíli felt the blush at his ears first, then over his cheeks and down into the beard thickening nicely along his chin.

“Glyrna?” he asked, because…well, every lad in Erid Luin knew who Glyrna was.  She was the daughter of one of the local families, with luxurious oak-brown hair and a beard that put every male their age to shame.  There were dwarves who fought for her attention, and she’d-  

“Are you sure that’s what they said?!” he demanded.

“Well, yeah.  I mean, I don’t get it.  You just look like you and all sweaty and gross and stuff, and you don’t even have any tattoos yet.  But they were talking all about your hair being pulled up and something about your shoulders and said you should charge admission.” Freja did another unimpressed sweep of her eyes.  “People in their sixties are so weird.  You’re just a boy like any other boy.”  She huffed disapprovingly, as if this was now a waste of her entire afternoon.

“Yes,” Fíli agreed distantly, because wasn’t this a shift of the world on its axis?  “Don’t move.”

Freja blew a raspberry but didn’t budge as Fíli ducked into the back room, where a polished mirror hung on the wall for checking the grip and fit of swords and armor when customers came to pick them up.

Fíli took a deep breath, and looked straight into his own reflection.

He’d always been small, Fíli, not tall or broad, a bit on the scrawny side, though his rare honey-colored hair was an asset, and he’d had a decent beard since his twenties.  There’d been more than his share of teasing from older cousins and even his obnoxiously tall little brother, though Kíli was as reedy as dwarves came.  Fíli was gifted at fighting, but just never seemed to build up muscle, never seemed to broaden his shoulders or-

He stopped.

And really looked.

Muscle lay across his chest, hidden under a pelt of golden curls.  His arms were thick, too – they’d taken on shape in the blacksmith’s trade, firmed and curved.  His belly was flat, and his eyes stared back at him in a shock of blue as he took in all the changes in his body that he’d somehow missed.  

Carefully, he traced his fingers over his upper arms, visions of blue ink in his head.  He’d thought of them for years, but he’d been so scrawny, he didn’t want to both the artists just yet.  But now-

Slowly, his lips curved and his eyes narrowed into a decidedly pleased (and devastating, though he didn’t know it yet) smile.

Being a blacksmith, it seemed, was good for more than the soul.

He’d have to think about this a bit.

Hi friends! Just a little update

Bad news: So I sadly don’t think I will have a Fili story for this Fili Friday but I will still be celebrating, as always, with reblogs and ficrecs! IM PUMPED!

But good news: I will be posting my Leggy story for you guys this weekend. That came in second in the third round of voting so that will be up soon! If you want to be tagged (besides my usual taglist) let me know!

Besides, sending you friends hugs if you want them.

[legolaslovely]

right, i don't know if you'll be able to help me find this fic or what, but since you're a fellow fili loving person (sorry i'm not sure of your pronouns), i thought you'd be the best to ask as i've searched everywhere and i can't FREAKING FIND IT! so basically the company stop at beorns house, and later in the night the reader wakes up and finds fili missing, finds him in a cupboard getting himself off, and all in all they end up doing it! if you have any clue where i can find it♡♡

Hello! My pronouns are she/her/hers. Thanks for being so thoughtful!

SOOOO I know this! I totally know this. But I can’t find it either. Everything I read of Fili is in my tags as #ficrec fili x reader. But sometimes tumblr hates me and doesn’t keep everything? But I think miss @nerdbirdsworld will know this one? Does anyone else know? Happy Fili loving!
