Summary
“Think about it. What if you get everything you want? What if this works? What if, in pain and in the fear of pain, I yield to your will? Where you once had a friend, you will now have a cringing slave. Then, Annatar, and only then, will we both be lost beyond recall.”
Now available in podfic form thanks to the skills of WolffyLuna.

Summary
“We would like to offer our sincere condolences regarding the passing of your husband,” Ethrand states in a lofty drawl.
Julien sees Aranessa’s jaw go taut. “Thank you for thinking of us in our time of mourning,” she grates out.
“Of all Houses, House Tachonis would never seek to downplay or invalidate the importance of a mourning period. However, certain circumstances warrant a loosening of the proscribed timelines.”
Julien’s jaw falls ajar. He can't possibly mean...?
“I fear I fail to understand you," Aranessa hisses. "Elaborate.”
“All this recent unpleasantness was the consequence of years of unfortunate misunderstandings between our two houses. In contravention of what one might expect, I am pleased to say that I am here with an entreaty of peace.”
Aranessa allows a long silence to transpire, one that seems to make even Ethrand uncomfortable. “I will hear the details.”
“In exchange for a lasting peace, we only seek to solemnize this new alliance with a vow.” Ethrand smirks. “Accordingly, my father offers you the hand of my brother Occtis in marriage.”
Julien looks down at the rug. If he doesn’t look down at the rug, he’s going to start shouting.

Summary
“Here,” he whispers. “One to crown: that must be Fingon, who is the reason for the reconciliation of the Noldor. One to kneel: that must be me, obviously, to represent that I do this of my own free will and joy. And one to witness: the first and highest of the Kings of the Noldor. Using a Sindar ceremony, aiming at presenting a united front to Morgoth… every symbol makes sense. And if there’s one thing I’ve learned since arriving in Beleriand, it’s the importance of symbols.”
Morgoth had used him as one for three decades, hadn’t he?
[Maedhros and Fingolfin, from peaceful Aman to fell Beleriand: two courtiers to the same king, kin to one another, foes when their duties called them to it, and friends, sometimes, if one ignores everything else of their history.]
