    Summary

    "Do not make this little mistake in my motherhood a tragic footnote in my life, Maglor. Why must we define what living is like for difficult people in difficult places, as a tragedy? The true tragedy lies in the masking of little mistakes, the ensconcement of little lives in the language of the promising, the language of potential possessed and lost, of heroic deeds and terrible mistakes. Such words do not denote reality, they make reality feel like mass failure instead of proof of human lives lived under impossible conditions.

    Make it a part of the whole of me, a counterpart to my kindness. Do not tell them that I was the best mother in the world solely by virtue of my womanhood. Tell them Nerdanel looked at her firstborn, could not see him truly, and did not think to ask."
    _______________
    A ‘nonfictional fanfiction’ family history situating the Fëanorians in Prayers to Broken Stone, looking at the 'secular leftist' yet landowning and feudalistic Mappila Muslim family in Kozhikode between 1920 and 1980, interspersed with letters Nerdanel wrote to Maglor during her hunger strike.

    Or: why Fëanor set himself on fire after his swords were flung into the sea.

    Summary

    A Murder mystery in an Orient-express like setting with political intrigue as a main plot device.
    This will also be a gay romance at some point, I <-(highly unreliable) just need to get there.
    This is supposed to play in an imperialistic, semi-post colonialism fantasy world.
    Fantasy wont play a very big part probably, just know it’s there.

    Summary

    “When Vizieroy Mehrzād told Queen Arwen and King Elessar that the demolition of the Jud-Aman star tower of Middle Harad would be delayed by a day because the chief astronomer had thrown herself off its highest balcony, she took the news calmly, kissing Aragorn briefly on the cheek. She spent the afternoon walking in her temporary garden instead, thinking about how Elrond once told her that it had been the height of spring when Fëanorian warhorses thundered into Sirion seven thousand years ago.”
    ———
    Or: an account of a kinslaying, through the eyes of Arwen Undomíel.

    Summary

    When Klint storms into a colonial gentlemen’s club in full fury and bloodstains, he’s not there to cause trouble—he’s running from it. Accused of fathering a white heiress’s bastard, her aristocratic father set out his bounty—and the Empire sharpens its knives.

    But in the glittering haze of Madame Red’s notorious club, Klint finds an unlikely ally in Uli: queenpin of Malaya’s opium scene, a Chinese woman with a leash on white men all over the peninsula. Together, they strike a bargain to uncover the real father.

    Yet the deeper Klint is pulled into Uli’s world of secrets and machinery, the more dangerous one truth becomes: the accusation is impossible.

    Because Klint isn’t the man the world believes him to be—and if that is revealed, clearing her name may be the least of her problems.

    Summary

    In New Coevorden, the will of the state is divine providence. When the stars are snuffed of their divine light, the powers at be are placed under scrutinous watch, and the fabric of society is set to shift.

    An alternate and post-colonial world which once harbored diverse magic is changed by alien cosmic influences, forcing individuals normally separated by circumstance to come together and rely on one another, or turn on their closest allies.

    Summary

    Thomas The Tank Engine is perhaps one of the calmest yet strangest worlds I could've been reborn into. But hey, pulling trains is at least surprisingly fulfilling once you learn to look past not having control over your own body and having any real rights any more.

    So, how exactly do I make sure I'm really useful enough to not die again too soon?

    It's becoming increasingly obvious things can't go on like this.

    Milldread keeps to itself, and cares for it's own.

    The harvest this year, really, isn't anything to sing about. Someone needs to do something.

    If not her, who else?
