One of my first Andor fics, playing around with a what-if idea of Erskin's Chandrilan father ("he was married, it was a scandal")
 being Perrin.

Written for Eastwynds for the 2025 Haladriel fic exchange. Sauron finds a way to return to the recent past, this time with Galadriel's mind enchanted to forget his real identity. But a door between minds can open both ways. Galadriel finds herself back in Eregion with all her memories of what happened before intact - and a wounded companion who thinks he is only a mortal named Halbrand.

“We are made by duty,” he says. “Hammered out by it. I don’t ask for absolution.”
“I would not give it.”
She has noticed that sometimes he traces one finger over the scars on his face: the curve around his eye, the furrow down his cheek, the lattice of lines on his neck. It is as if he is rewriting something, over and over again.

First published on AO3 in March 2024.

I've always loved thinking about what Galadriel would do if she took the One Ring when Frodo offered it, so this is a story where that happens.
Fair as the Sea and the Sun

( There is no place in all of this for the strange things Celeborn remembers and Galadriel has reassured him of this, time and time again. A bad dream, she says. An old fear. I don’t know what you mean. I don’t remember Mithrandir. )

Notes:

Galadriel from LOTR:

In place of the Dark Lord you will set up a Queen. And I shall not be dark, but beautiful and terrible as the Morning and the Night! Fair as the Sea and the Sun and the Snow upon the Mountain! Dreadful as the Storm and the Lightning! Stronger than the foundations of the earth. All shall love me and despair!”
She lifted up her hand and from the ring that she wore there issued a great light that illuminated her alone and left all else dark. She stood before Frodo seeming now tall beyond measurement, and beautiful beyond enduring, terrible and worshipful.

And from Unfinished Tales:

'Of Finarfin's children I am the last. But my heart is still proud. What wrong did the golden house of Finarfin do that I should ask the pardon of the Valar, or be content with an isle in the sea whose native land was Aman the Blessed? Here I am mightier.’
‘What would you then?’ said Celebrimbor.

‘I would have trees and grass about me that do not die – here in the land that is mine,’ she answered.

Tolkien does speculate a bit in one of his letters about what would have happened if Galadriel or Gandalf took the Ring, but I think the best insight is Galadriel's words to Sam when he says that she'd sort out all the wrong-doers in the Shire if she could: "'I would,' she said. 'That is how it would begin. But it would not stop with that, alas!"

The AO3 extended downtime today made me think I really should get round to putting my fic somewhere that's not just that one archive plus my own hard drive, which I've been meaning to do for ages and haven't. So I'm keeping this as a placeholder for my fics and I'll update them on here... gradually!
