Halbrand: Is this the part where you say if I hurt her you’ll kill me? Elrond: No. If you hurt Galadriel, she's perfectly capable of killing you herself.

Haladriel Week 2024 | Day 4: Binding

All It Takes To Bind You

Men needed rings and ceremony, officiants and family. Did elves marry through mere consummation? Even though there was nothing mere about their– “Are we binded to each other?”

From the ROP fandom, I see frequent comments about how people were in denial about Halbrand being Sauron. I'm curious why.

So...

Listen, knowing what we know now, I would watch a bunch of one shot episodes of human halbrand doing stupid human things.

Everyone else can go about their plot driving business.

Counter that, just Galadriel foiling all of his plans over and over again and they get more ridiculous as time goes on.

Time for a fic rec!

This one-shot by @ichabodjane written after episode 6 aired, and is hidden on page 35 in the Haladriel tag. It has human!Halbrand, and I think it's definitely worth reading. It's one of my favourites. ❤

Wrote a new Haladriel ficlet ✨

[hazelmaines]

This will be the next one I update with chapter 3/3 almost done! 🙌🔥

Closer (explicit, WIP, 7087 words)

"Bronwyn has only been with men. Two men, specifically - her first husband, who ran off when Theo was small, and Arondir. Perhaps, she reasons, this is why it is Galadriel's voice she keeps hearing, her face she keeps picturing, in ways she should not. In her lap, kissing her, hands on her breasts - Because it is something new and different. Not that she would kick the king out of bed, either, she catches herself thinking too late, and then she has to go and get a pitcher of water and splash some on her face before returning to the garden."

fixing(?) Rings of Power in 2 episodes

i think they should have pulled a full bait and switch. they wanted to subvert expectations, so do it. here's my idea: 

 have everything be the same, up until the last few episodes. 

 halbrand is getting sicker, it like he's stabbed by a morgul blade, he's falling into the wraith world. nothing helps until Elrond shows, calling back to the fellowship where he saves frodo from becoming a wraith. 

elrond spends a whole episode saving the southman. yet, as he's treating an ailing halbrand, he realises something. 

 halbrand's condition worses whenever galadriel comes to visit him. 

 we see as it dawns on him, with sheer horror, though he doesn't say a word. 

he rushes to celebrimbor, but it's too late. his fears are confirmed on the worst way possible. the smith , with his last breath, gives elrond the three elven rings, the ones not under sauron's full donimon. 

 we see a nightmare sequence from the comatose halbrand, alive but fight desperately against the darkness. he is confronted by galadriel, at first he is relieved to see a familiar face, but his relief soon turns to fear as he sees the fiery hatred in her eyes. he refuses to be a puppet, and we get some good ol fashion on screen torture. cool effect for the galadriel - sauron transition. halbrand’s will starts to break down.   

 we see galadriel in armour and a cloak leave eregion in a hurry, there's blood on her hands, passing another woman as she does. 

this woman is also hooded and cloaked, but instead of armour she wears a gown of starlight. she carries no sword, for she has no need of it. 

 the woman enters the healing rooms and meets elrond who, with broken eyes and tears, asks if it's really her. 

the woman laughs softly, she removes her hood. her hair is as bright as the sun, streaked with silver. shining like the trees of old. 

she holds a hand over halbrand, he's sweating and his face is twisted in agony. switch back to halbrand's nightmare/mindscape. he's in total despair. we see him have to watch as his family is brutally killed in front of him. 

he's broken, he's losing his fight. but just as he's about to give into darkness, to relinquish his life for an end to the pain, he hears singing. it's soft at first, but it grows in volume. a man and a woman, singing in harmony. the words are not in sindarin, but quenya. a woman's form, bathed in pure light, appears in front of the kneeling man, she offers him her hand. he takes it, rejecting the darkness. 

 halbrand's eyes snap open, he's gasping and coughing, but alive and in the seen world. elrond is standing to the left at the bedside, he looks exhausted and drained, but is smiling. 

halbrand looks to the right and sees the woman. his eyes widen. she smiles, taking his hand in hers. 

 "Aiya, Maethor," she says, he voice is so kind and gentle. "I am Galadriel of the Noldor." 

just use the actual villain you wrote.

[Circa Season 1] Elrond, to Galadriel: This problem you're facing, it's about emotion, right? That's a human problem. So maybe we should consult our most problematic human. [cuts to Halbrand]

If you know the author of Plenty of Tales Left to Tell by autumn_lover24 who deleted her fic from ao3, tell her it is dear to me and I'd love to see it finished someday

I had this idea when I couldn't sleep last night and I just had to do it. :-)

Human!Halbrand headcanon

I have this headcanon that Halbrand has two younger siblings among which a blind sister with whom, at the ors' invasion, he was first imprisoned in a labour camp and then separated from because they needed him to forge their weapons and were told he had the skills to.

As a last act of loyalty to his people, he refused risking assassination by Adar, who instead had him thrown into the sea.

From then he ended up being found by the castaways on a falling boat, navigating the Sundering Seas.

After the Southlanders have settled in Pelargir for a time, one day Arondir comes to the main hall where Halbrand's listening to people's necessities and tells him there's a wounded woman on a horse asking if their King's name is Halbrand.

Halbrand goes there to get an understanding of what's going on and in front of him finds his long missing sister, Aedelind.

I think her a gentle, extremely nice but really smart girl, supportive of her brother and protective of those she cherishes, shares her brother's green eyes and has auburn hair.

When she happens to overhear Gal and Hal chatting and figures out their bond she takes Galadriel aside to ask confirmation that she cares for Halbrand and upon receiving it, smiles at the elven lady and calls her sister.

~ I just thought we needed some family fluff for this poor man (and an ACTUAL reason for Halbrand's pained face when Adar told him "Did I cause someone you love pain? A woman, perhaps? A child?")
