12 Days of Christmas - 2024!

Hello,

We’re back with your favourite event of the festive season!

We would like to invite you to help us decorate our virtual fandom Christmas tree! With shiny, new, delicious content!

Bear with us, we’ll try to explain:

Fanart = Baubles

Fanfic = Paper chains

Photosets = Lights

This will make sense in a minute, we promise.

I would like to participate as a writer:

Step 1: Message @linane-art to request one of our festive photosets*. You can do so between now and 13th of December - no sign up needed.

Step 2: Write something based on the photoset. Minimum 700 words, no max, Fili/Kili or any fictional Dean/Aidan pairing. You’ve created a paper chain for our tree.

Step 3: Don’t post it, submit it to us.

Step 4: You can do this again (or as many times as you like), but you must submit one before requesting another.

You must submit at least some ficlets before 13th of December.

You will be offered a chance to continue writing after the 13th of December, but we want at least one complete wave of responses by then, so we can queue our content.

I would like to participate as an artist:

Step 1: Message @linane-art to request a bauble outline template.

Step 2: Within the bauble draw a little fanart. Photomanips are also allowed, but just edits or photosets won’t work for this. Must be Christmas or season-themed (no prompts, do what you like). Fili/Kili or any fictional Dean/Aidan pairing.

Step 3: Don’t post it, submit it to us.

Step 4: You can do this again (or as many times as you like), but you must submit one before producing another.

You must submit at least some fanarts before 13th of December.

You will be offered a chance to continue drawing after the 13th of December, but we want at least one complete wave of responses by then, so we can queue our content.

Decorating the tree:

Between 13th and 24th of December @gatheringfiki will be posting all your creations (decorations)

We will also re-use some of last year’s decorations: a selection of our favourite photosets from last year will be reblogged between 1st and 12th of December to whet your appetie.

Questions, feedback, ideas, comments - please let us know!

~gatheringfiki

*We have 10 photosets ready at this point, the rest is still cooking.

Please re-blog to spread the word! Thank you.

This is a great au; I need to read it again 😊🥰

By March, the two of them were planning a summer trip to Ireland together.

Fili was typing furiously on his laptop, looking up quaint little B&Bs, campsites, flights, interesting rock formations, local festivals and fairs, and a couple of other things, all at once.

They’ve only had this brilliant idea about twenty minutes earlier, so next to him, Kili was chattering excitedly, not bothering to make breaks for drawing breath.

“- Giant’s Causeway of course, the table rocks, monolithic circles, Ben Bulben –“ Kili gasped, fighting off the threat of suffocation –

- And yanked Fili for a delighted kiss.

Fili blinked, thoughts derailed from where he was considering if they might be able to get into a couple of fascinating one-off lectures, took one shaky breath through his nose and snogged Kili right back.

That was their first kiss.

Does anyone know where I can find this image by hvit-ravn but without the signature cropped out? I've had no luck so far.

At first sight

GatheringFiKi Trick or Treat 2024 Trick: A persecuted witch with nowhere left to run

Pairing: Fili x Kili (AU) Words: 700 Content Waring: No warnings. Just a sweet meeting.

As no more than a slight shadow, Fili smoothly jumped to a branch in the next tree. Securly hidden in the yellow canopy his gaze followed the young man running on the ground below. He was beginning to look very tired where he was stumbling along.

Fili had followed him with fascination for more than an hour now. He didn’t think the man knew that he had passed into Wood Nymph territory. His pursuers had known, and they had elected to stop their hunt a good while back. He didn’t think the man knew that either.

Fili could have told him of course, but there was a certain fascination in seeing how far the young man could push himself. And he wasn’t supposed to talk to humans anyway.

Finally the runner’s foot caught in one root to many and he fell to the ground with an ‘Ouff’ as the air was knocked out of him — yellow and orange leaves flying in all directions. As the man scrambled to his feet in a panic, Fili’s curiosity got the better of him. To hell with rules. Hardly a leaf stirred as he landed softly in front of the cloaked runner.

The man yelped and almost fell down again as he stumbled back, looking around fearfully as if he expected to be surrounded. He was beautiful! — for a human anyway. Dark, brown hair and a hint of a stubble on his cheeks. Fili resisted the temptation to reach out and touch it.

“Please, I mean no harm to anyone,” the man pleaded, still out of breath. He held up his hands to prove his lack of weapons. As if Fili didn’t know that already; hunted or not, there was no way he would have allowed an armed human this far into the woods without giving alarm. But now he studied the other with fascination. Up close he smelled kind of funny; like he had been rolling around in flowers and old, burnt plants.

“You can stop running. They stopped chasing you after you passed the creek at the old oak.” He was trying to get a better look at all the pouches hanging from the man’s belt. He thought that might be where the smells were coming from.

The other predictably threw a quick glance behind to verify the lack of pursuit, and his stance began to soften slightly — but then his eyes widened as he took in this information and correctly concluded how Fili could know that. Had his pursuers simply been exchanged for another? “Who- what are you?” he finally asked.

Fili made a small nod in acknowledgement, pleased with the offering of a question. “A wood nymph. Why were those men chasing you?” he asked curious.

“A nymph?” The man’s big, brown eyes grew even bigger. “That’s incredible. I never knew-”

“I answered your question, now you need to answer mine,” Fili said. Maybe humans weren’t familiar with the Rite of Exchange?

“Oh… they didn’t want my sort in their village,” he answered elusively.

“But you are human. Just like them,” Fili said confused. He didn’t like that the man looked so sad, he wanted to see him smile; he wondered if that would make his stubble wrinkle and what that would look like.

“But I can do things they can not, and that makes them afraid of me. I was sure they were gonna catch me,” he said with a shudder. “Did- did you make them turn back?”

“No.” He eagerly asked his next question now that it was his turn. “What’s your name?” He was aware that he probably was staring, but he couldn’t help himself.

There was a slight pause before the answer came. “Kili. What’s your–”

“Fili,” he answered excitedly before Kili could even finish his question. 

Kili’s lips twitched into a small smile and Fili´s heart skipped a beat. He swallowed before asking his next question. “That thing you can do that the humans were afraid of… Do you- do you enthrall others with love spells?”

“What? No, nothing like that!” Kili said aghast. “What makes you ask such a thing?”

Fili smiled stupidly, feeling like he was falling into Kili’s eyes. “No reason.”

(not) born in sin

written for FIKI WEEK hosted by @gatheringfiki, for the prompt:

“Love doesn't discriminate between the sinners and the saints; it takes and it takes and it takes, and we keep loving anyway.” ― Lin Manuel Miranda, Hamilton

Having a soulmate, at times, could be a curse.

Not everyone had the perfect soulmate – even evil, cruel people who killed and raped had soulmates, and how could that be fair? How could it be fair for them to have someone who’d love them so purely, even with everything they’d done?

How was it fair, when Fíli and Kíli – two honest, goodhearted men – were doomed to be each other’s soulmate when they were also brothers?

There weren’t any laws about having soulmates, but there were other laws that could go against the fact of having a soulmate. For one, if you were above the age of eighteen, you shouldn’t be in a relationship with someone who was underaged; you’d have to wait until they turned adults to pursue anything romantic with them.

In some places, two men or two women couldn’t be together romantically, or even if they could, they couldn’t get officially married. It was also frowned upon in some places for people with more than one soulmate to pursue all of their soulmates instead of choosing only one.

And, of course, the other law was that siblings weren’t allowed to be romantically – and mainly sexually – involved. The reason behind it had a lot to do with inbreeding, which wouldn’t be a problem for Fíli and Kíli, but it was seen as such an abnormal pairing that even couples who couldn’t reproduce were prohibited of being together.

Fíli had been the first to know about their bond; people would be able to see their own red thread of fate since his fifteenth birthday – they would look thin and muted if they were too far from their soulmate, but the closer they got, the thicker and redder it turned – until they met their soulmate in person, when the thread would shine gold and then disappear, as if locking them together.

The Hobbit and LOTR have fallen into my clutches

And my slutty slutty eyes have been casted onto Kíli, and i am currently drawing something scandalous for him

BE PREPARED

(also i may or may not have fixated on Durincest/Fiki COUGH)

[linane-art]

Something sassy this way comes...

It probably reeks of horses, cheap wine and sex, and will challenge all three of you to a duel, all at once!

You'd think I'd have something written for it, but no. No writing. Only in my head.

Bonus fullsize Fili

Bonus fullsize Kili (if that's more of your jam)

Events Calendar 2025 - PSA

Hi folks,

As I'm pondering the events calendar for 2025, I need your input more than ever. I think it's a sad reality - through no fault of anyone - that year on year there are ever fewer of us, which calls into question organising events aimed at wide audiences, especially if only 2-3 people are going to play. Having said that, I appreciate each and every one of you reading this, and I want to keep you motivated as long as I can.

So here's what I've got: in 2025 we are definitely going to have a FiKi Week in the summer and 12 Days of Christmas, because these seem to be everyone's favourite events. Aside from those 2 events, what, if anything else will take place, I'm not sure yet. This is where you come in.

If you can't remember what's what, there are links to each event on the sidebar of GatheringFiKi.

Comments are also open, so if you have any suggestions or observations or ideas, or just anything you want to share, please use them.

There will be a post covering the poll results and the Events Calendar for 2025 probably next weekend 04-05 Jan 2025.

Meanwhile, there is also a Britchell Contribution Fest 2025 going on throughout Jan 2025, so if that's something of interest to you, please check it out ;)

Good folks,

Damsel in distress is looking for a knight in shining armour!

♡♡⁠♡⁠

I really need some restless soul to write Fili/Kili fanfic with Lion Shapeshifter! Fili 🥹 I'll take anything - short, long, fluff, smut, hurt/comfort (maybe not angst)

Just- this idea has been haunting me for a long time. I'm sorry.
