She had stopped by the river to collect water, realizing only then she had been humming. She found herself doing so at times when in need to soothe herself after something had made her heart race in a way that was unbecoming for a guard, let alone a captain. But too often she was prey of her own emotions, and had to walk away. "I know when I'm being followed," she finally spoke up, turning enough to look above her shoulder. "Come out."

@voidtamer:

He thought he had been silent- silent enough that he would not be overheard, though he supposed he’s never had to track one of his own. Tauriel had always piqued his curiosity, whether that be because of her peculiar mannerisms, or simply because something about her caught his eye.

Her voice jolted him back to the present, and he raised himself back from his crouched position, boots crunching upon fallen leaves to properly alert her of his presence as opposed to skulking about. “Tauriel,” a smile bloomed on his face when she met his gaze, and he crouched next to her, swirling a finger in the cool river water. “I thought we were not to go out alone?”

Tauriel allowed herself to smile, pleased to see Legolas but always careful to keep a proper distance, least his father or others could misinterpret their relationship. "Forgive me, I did not know it was you," she answered as her fingers moved away from a dagger at her belt, "Your father allowed me to leave so I could finish hunting the last spider orcs. Again." She had almost betrayed her frustration there, since she was on a fool's errand meant to be repeated again and again. It was not a job that Mirkwood could complete alone but Thranduil would not hear it. "Does he know you have left?"

[amarthfaeg]

ooc. it's my first time properly writing tauriel ( i was just testing the waters ) and i did NOT expect to feel this comfortable as her, i actually have so much muse for her so she's definitely one of my primary muses now. <3

[coreofgold]

"Have we?" Legolas asked, looking at the other deeply. Oh. . .wait a minute. "Tauriel? Is that you?" How did it take him so long to recognize the other elf?

tauriel's brow furrowed as they looked at the other, nodding. "yes - we know each other, we were once friends," or at least she hoped that was still the case.

[swordoaths]

@sanguinelf spoke: "you saved my life." - for Tauriel

It was sudden, the way she sprang down from the tree boughs to place herself between this stranger and the river. Her feet alighted on the riverbank--- knees bent to absorb her landing-- and, like all things in the forest, she stretched toward the sky until she stood in full form. A hand came forward, and with fingers curled round the top of her head, Tauriel pulled the mossy hood down and away to reveal her face. The wind in the forest quickly lapped up the long tresses of her hair as it fell down about her, but all else was still.

Behind her, the Enchanted River flowed on ceaselessly and without care to whatever, or whomever, it tried to ensnare. As the water spilled over rock and pebble, it created a song that was eerie, yet enchanting (but not in a comforting way). Still, it always beckoned travelers to draw near. It was the protector of the Elvenking's Halls, which the river surrounded, and it was not likely to give up that which it ensnared into its watery grave.

The Wood-elves had learned this song from the river ages ago, and as such, their own singing had morphed into something that was equally eerie and alluring. Tauriel suffered not from its enchantments, for she could sing like the river; instead, her gaze remained fixed upon the traveler who had made it this far into the forest. Her eyes, which matched the color of the leaves that had fallen about her feet, carried equal parts wariness and curiosity.

"The river is ceaseless in its beckoning to travelers," she replied. "We know when to interject." Tauriel did not draw nearer to him, but she lowered her head ever so slightly in greeting. This stranger seemed to be Elven, yet still was unfamiliar. "I do not know your kind. Who travels alone so deeply into the forest?"

FOTFICtember - Chapter 5

Kyra goes camping. Bilbo has a hot shower. Everyone eats entirely too much sugar :D

Prompts: cuddling, soft, cinnamon, cold hands, rainstorms, sweet treats

Pairing: Ori x OC, Kíli x Tauriel, Bilbo x Thorin

Words: 1495

Warnings: sexual innuendo

As soon as he was gone, Tauriel stopped at the edge of the bonfire.

The dancing flames filled her rich, red hair with reflections of dying embers, and Kyra was mesmerised enough by the sight not to question the sudden interruption of their plans.

“So, what did we miss?” the elfin beauty then asked, turning back to face Kyra, her bright eyes piercing and her soft mouth curled into a knowing smile. “Did you kiss Ori in the maze?”

“As a matter of fact, I did,” Kyra admitted. “I was made to understand that it was some kind of tradition. Maybe, I’ll have good luck from now on.”

“If you want that, yeah,” Tauriel sighed, playing with a strand of her hair absent-mindedly. “Listen, we don’t know each other as well as you might know my boyfriend and his brother, but I’d like to think that we’ve become friends since you arrived here this year, no?”

“Sure,” Kyra agreed. She couldn’t fathom what the other woman was getting at, and it started to make her nervous. “What’s up?”

“Ori…If I’ve understood the whole matter correctly, he’s had a major crush on you for years, so we decided to give him a little helpful nudge. Nevertheless, we don’t want to pressure you into something you wouldn’t be comfortable with.”

She now looked exceedingly uncomfortable and guilty.

“Do you deem him dangerous? If I were to reject him?” Kyra asked candidly for she trusted Tauriel’s assessment. Since her return to these parts, she’d come to respect and cherish Kíli’s girlfriend as a level-headed, fierce young woman.

Moreover, Kyra was not in a position to callously refuse the offer of an earnest friendship when it came her way.

“Ori? Never,” the other guffawed. “But, spending the night perched up in a tiny tent is another matter entirely than kissing in a maze, and I wanted you to be advised.”

“He’s a darling, isn’t he?” Kyra sighed and dashed forward when she saw that the corner where the cakes and buns were kept was deserted for the moment.

“Oh yes, he absolutely is,” Tauriel agreed as they shovelled as many treats as they could onto chipped plates and melted into the deep, dark shadows of the nearby treeline. “He’s the best, and we all adore him. He’d never hurt you��”

With a wicked smile, she picked a glazed cookie out of the heap and took a nibble. “I also tell you this for another reason. If, and it’s a big ‘if’, you were even the slightest bit interested in dear Ori, you’ll have to go for it. He’s too honourable by far to risk discomfiting you when you’re stuck in the middle of the forest with him.”

“Makes sense,” Kyra mused. Inspired by her friend’s brazen theft, she chose a soft, plump cupcake and took a hearty bite from it. There was more than enough to share, she thought, and the others wouldn’t miss what they’d never seen.

Admiring Tauriel’s fluid, unerring movements, Kyra let herself be led far beyond the warming light of the bonfire into the heart of the woods.

Ahead, a dimmer, more unsteady gleam beckoned to them, and soon they’d reached the makeshift camp of three tents nestled between the massive roots of the surrounding trees.

“Ah, there you are, my love,” Kíli exclaimed and promptly pinched a juicy slice of berry-cake from the plate Tauriel was carrying. “We were about to send out a search and rescue team!”

Rolling her eyes, the tall redhead sank onto the nest of blankets they’d scattered on the floor and sighed contentedly.

For a while, they simply sat in silence, eating cake and enjoying the charming song of the nocturnal forest, but then, the weather turned again, and a slight drizzle started to fall.

“Could turn into a proper rainstorm,” Fíli declared resolutely and went to check every single tent twice. “We better retire for the night. Sleep well!”

Kyra had not even finished her apple cider when she was ushered into the tent along with the almost empty plate and…Ori.

“Do you need anything? Now is the time,” he informed her, squinting at the dark sky suspiciously.

“No, I’m fine. My hands are a bit sticky,” she replied sheepishly and twitched when he took them in his own as if to check.

“Your hands are cold! Let me get you a wet wipe,” he exclaimed and turned around slowly in the cramped space to rummage through his bag until he pulled out his hygiene kit with a sound of triumph. “We didn’t account for such weather, I’m afraid, so there’s no space heater,” he said apologetically.

The whole floor of the tent was littered with soft, fluffy blankets, and Kyra burrowed herself into them eagerly as the staccato of furious rain started to batter the paper-thin walls in earnest.

Meanwhile, Ori’s gaze flitted nervously through their tiny sanctuary as if searching for a corner into which he could simply disappear.

“Come here,” Kyra invited, desperate to feel his warmth again. “I know a trick for dispelling the cold.”

As soon as he’d joined her, laying down on his side to face her, she pulled one of the blankets over them, tucking it in around their bodies to create a bubble of shared body heat.

Tauriel’s words came back to her, and she lifted her gaze to his comely face in hopes of seeing any indication of that secret affection that had been insinuated.

“Do you…Are you warm enough?” Ori asked, worry tingeing his voice.

“In a moment,” she replied, willing her teeth not to chatter too loudly as she inched closer to him little by little.

“I could…” he mumbled, snaking his arm around her and rubbing her back in slow, firm circles. “How’s that?”

“Wonderful,” Kyra admitted truthfully and scooted closer still until she was pressed against his chest, breathing in his clean, wholesome smell greedily.

Nestled in his warmth, she smiled as she felt his lips brush against the crown of her head silently—this was all the encouragement she needed.

Thus, she tilted up her face to catch that furtive, tender kiss and deepen it.

“You taste like cinnamon,” she slurred against his mouth. “I somehow knew you would.”

“’s because I’m a ginger, huh?” he replied in the same muffled voice, unwilling to pull back and end the kiss.

“Brown sugar and cinnamon,” she purred. “Sweet and a bit spicy, yeah, that’s how I imagined you.”

Outside, the world was seemingly ending, but Kyra cared nought.

Her cold legs were intertwined with Ori’s strong thighs and sturdy calves, and she had buried her cold fingers in the fleece of another sweatshirt—he apparently had an endless supply of soft, warm fabrics at his disposal—and she started to wonder what it would feel like to peel these protective layers off him one by one.

She decided to find out anon.

Across the forest, Bilbo was dripping wet and laughing breathlessly as he raced towards his car, Thorin hard on his heels.

“A rainstorm!” Bilbo cried. “And I thought it was all going so well until now!”

“It was a success, don’t fret,” the other reassured him. “And I’m sure that Kyra is doing just fine wherever she is. Probably snuggled up in a warm tent, giggling into Ori’s foolish face!”

“Ah, you’d know about silly visages, wouldn’t you?” Bilbo grinned as he sped down the muddy forest path towards his quaint little cottage. “I’m too cold and wet to stay a moment longer than I must in this car,” he declared and turned up the heat to the maximum.

“So you’ll send me home on foot in this deluge?” Thorin exclaimed, feigning vexation.

“I didn’t say that, you oaf!” Bilbo laughed. “As the kids are all busy doing Yavanna knows what, I invite you to join me for a hot, restorative shower.”

This idea did much to brighten Thorin’s mood, and he even hummed a little tune as they pulled into Bilbo’s driveway.

“Just the shower?” he then asked when they kicked off their sopping wet shoes and shrugged out of their drenched clothes that clung disgustingly to their clammy skin. “Or…”

“I might have squirrelled away a few extra cakes and sweet treats in the pantry,” Bilbo informed him with a mischievous glint in his eyes. “For the day after feast, but…”

“They’ve had quite enough sugar, I dare say!” Thorin declared haughtily, catching the other by the hips and pulling him into a passionate kiss that should have made any remaining moisture turn into steam within a single moment.

“Right you are,” Bilbo moaned. “We can eat them in bed, later. Now, we really need a hot shower. I can’t wait any longer to see you undressed. Come! After all, it’s a night for falling stars and magic.”

“Your wish is my command, dear colleague,” Thorin grinned. “As you know, I’d do anything for the success of the autumn fair.”

@fellowshipofthefics here's the last chapter of my fic for September! Thank you for celebrating autumn with me!

Lots of love from me! <3

[coreofgold]

Legolas turns around when he thought he heard a familiar voice. "Tauriel. It's been a while, hasn't it?" He doesn't blame her for leaving; It did cause trouble because one less person meant Gollum escaped and he had to leave, but he understands why. He would have too if something happened to Bloo. "We are in Washington D.C. It is in a land called America." He's lived here for what felt like forever. He wonders what his father would think.

@coreofgold || Tauriel & Legolas

.｡.:*☆ "Tauriel?" It felt like a lifetime since she had seen the other elf. Before she had decided to leave it all behind. Yes, it had been running away. But she had lost so much... it felt like the only thing left to do.

"This place - do you know what it is?" She had not really been able to adapt to living here in DC yet. Just was just too foreign. Too different from everything Tauriel knew.

[murkyhazed-is-archiving]

imagine you let me have threads with the following muses:

[nocompromise-noregrets]

Okay so a fic related ask - for the Valinor fic do you know who Sigrid and Tilda want to bring back?

eeee, thank you so much for asking! <3333333 I do - there is A List!

Bain and his family did not come back when Bard and the girls did, so they're definitely up there, though the girls are trying to think of others above themselves - but there's Bain, Lotta his wife, Brand, Astrid and Ingrid their children, Marta who is Brand's wife, and possibly others, I haven't worked out whether Astrid and Ingrid marry and/or have kids yet

Imrahil, for Legolas, because no matter how much he says that he knows Imrahil is at peace and all is right, he still misses him awfully, and the temptation to ask for him back when he accompanied his mother to yell at the Valar was very strong (but he knew somehow that if he asked for Imrahil, they wouldn't send Bard back, and Bard was who they needed at that moment)

Arwen and Aragorn, yes I know the whole point in canon is that they won't come back, but this is my AU and I'll be self-indulgent if I want to. Besides, Celebrían misses Arwen terribly, Elrond and the twins miss them both, and Sigrid wants to do something for them as they've done so much for her and her Ada

Thorin, Fíli and Kíli, although Sigrid is worried that when Kíli comes back Tauriel won't need her any more (Tauriel will very much still need her)

Rosie, for Sam, and possibly at least some of their children

Possibly Merry and Pippin (I haven't decided yet whether all the the Fellowship come back by default, and if they do, whether all their friends come back, although the temptation to do something nice for Boromir is enormous, and if he's coming back then Faramir and Éowyn and Éomer and Lothíriel, it's going to get crowded)

And then we're on to the people that Sigrid and Tilda and their friends don't know personally, such as Aegnor and Andreth

And Bëor and probably others who are dear to Finrod - there is a running joke in this 'verse and @lemurious' stuff (it was her idea) about songs being sung about Finrod's Many Lovers, and it amuses me greatly, but I can't remember offhand, other than Bëor, who they might have been (Barahir?)

Possibly Beren and Lúthien, although I'm going to have to introduce Thingol and Melian first, and before I introduce them I'm going to have to get Thranduil's parents in

Haleth, much as Auriel is not fond of the idea of doing something nice for a Fëanorian, uncle of hers or not

And that's about as far as I've got, although I'm sure there are other Silm people who probably ought to be at least asked if they want to return. I'm less worried about them, though, as they have less connection to the central characters and their circle, and I'm going to struggle to fit all of the above in as it is. :D

Wheeee! Anyone else want to ask me stuff about my various WIPs/fics to be written and encourage the muses to do some work for a change? XD

“ Shoot before it escapes! ” // from legolas to tauriel, maybe they’re hunting spiders or orcs 👀 @voidtamer

Tauriel rapidly climbed the last rocks, arrow ready and steely gaze following the last of them, despite the anger that was rushing through her body. She took the shot. It was a curious thing, this grief that Thraundiel had briefly spoken of to her, different from the kind she had felt for her parents; there had been guilt at the edge of it, because she had made her own personal duty to save Kili and had failed, and instead of despair it had turned into quick to raise anger and tears that would not come out. That anger had just resurfaced, realizing that Legolas was there, because the only thing she cared for left was him, and he didn't seem to share any concern for his own wellbeing or position.

"You shouldn't be here," she nearly snapped at him, making her way back, "It's dangerous and your father's army is far from us. Your father is far from us, he will be furious." He had shown her compassion and they had parted more amicably than they could have, but she had no doubt that the king would not want his son anywhere near the elf who had left Mirkwood to never return. "Go home, Legolas. This forest is full of dangers."

permanent starter call: tauriel

heart this post for a small starter from tauriel, specify muse if needed ! mutuals only please.

[moonlightswritingandstuff]

a conversation between the two last fëanárions

Or, Brontê and Fintan meet once again, without their other cousins. Both have become someone their parents would be proud of.

Drabble, 100 words.

For best results (and notes), read on ao3!

--------

"Ahtafinwë Ilinnáro," Brontê addresses him, for the first time in a very, very long while.

"Almifinwë Vorondaléndo," Fintan returns.

"Us two last scions," Brontê muses. "Fintan Elunor Celegormion and Maerfin Brontê Caranthirion."

"Have they forgotten you are a peredhel, cousin?" Fintan asks. "I doubt that they would let you rule."

"They have forgotten the existence of peredhel," Brontê returns. "But nonetheless, my parents would be proud of me."

"So would mine," Fintan says; "what other venture would Tyelkormo Fëanárion and Altahísë Tauriel want for their child?"

"That is precisely how you should know you went down the wrong path."

"Perhaps."

[stardayzzing]

I've been musing a role/race swap AU lately, and the main designs I've been looking at are Fili and Kili, being elves of course, as their counterparts would be Legolas and Tauriel as dwarves, and then Thorin and Thranduil swapping as well.

[maremortus]

hello hello! I know i haven't been on this blog for a little while, since i've had higher muse for other blogs at the moment. i'm considering moving this blog, along with shadowheart, onto a fantasy multimuse instead. so like this i can have all of my muses in one place instead of spreading them out across multiple different blogs. its a lot less stressful for me this way, so i think that's what i'll do.

if i have time tonight, i'll begin making the multi and move everything over there. if you're interested, so far the muses for that blog are going to be: valora , shadowheart , tauriel from the hobbit and a dragonborn character uvu

[fereldensheroes]

Tentatively saying I'm gonna add some LOTR characters as TRIAL muses. Aragorn and Tauriel. Galadriel's on hold til I get into Rings of Power cause that Galadriel feels like a VIBE.
