It occurs to me, now that I have gone and bought lightbulbs that I have absolutely no idea how to change a British lightbulb. Canadian ones screw in. *Screwscrewscrew. Done!* I think I have to pull or twist or... something? I don't know! XD Help!



(Ahaha, points to anyone who recognizes the movie quote I manhandled to my purposes in the subject line. :P)

Title: Fingolfin Had Died
Rating: PG-13
Disclaimer: Tolkien's estate owns all the Elfies. :( I just borrow them to play.
Warnings: (Canon) Character Death.
Summary: As Fingon faces his final battle, he thinks of his father.
Note: "Utúlie’n aurë! Aiya Eldalie ar Atanatári, utúlie’n aurë!" and "Auta i lómë!" are lifted straight from the Silmarillion (p 225 of the edition I own :x) and mean "The day has come! Behold, people of the Eldar and Fatgers of Men, the day has come!" and "The night is passing!"

Hahaha. 55 weeks since I last actually finished a bit of writing and stuck it in my writing LJ. 55! Maybe I should finish all these half written scraps and do something with them? ^^;

Anyway, I was going to say that I'd finally put something up again.

Fingolfin had died fighting.

In fact, his father's death had already become rather legendary. Not only had Fingolfin ridden forth to challenge Morgoth himself to combat, but he had injured the formidable Valar many times. In the end it had been as much exhaustion that had killed Fingolfin as Morgoth's hammer. And still, even in those final moments, the Elven king claimed a small victory by hewing the dark one's foot.

No matter how heroic the death, though, Fingon still missed his father.


Fingolfin Had Died - Silmarillion based fic. :x Yes, it's still a locked LJ so poke me if you don't have access but wanna read the rest of it.


I've got half finished stuff from a few fandoms on this comp (though most are at home :() so I'll see if I can't finish off some more and keep that thing more updated.
