Dancing with Knives

The Flower and The Fountain series (linked off-site at the author's request)
Author: Aduial
Pairing: Glorfindel/Ecthelion
Rating : R
Comments: A loving tributary series to Glorfindel and Ecthelion, written by an author who truly loves her characters. (The title of the series also matched this site's name, even though we had not communicated nor heard of each other's endeavors previously. A happy coincidence, and one that convinces me the two lords were meant to be. ;)
The Ondolinde series (linked off-site at the author's request)
Author: Anu
Pairing: Glorfindel/Turgon
Rating : R
Comments: A rather long work-in-progress that is nonetheless beautiful all on its own. The Stone Song series documents Glorfindel's history from his childhood to the Fall of Gondolin, as well as his relationship with Turgon, the king of the aforementioned city. If you have the time, this fic definitely warrants a look. :)
