Fili on the Lake by Tawabids

Summary
Wasn’t that how it worked in fairytales? The prince gathered up the sleeping maiden, promised to wed her, the curse was broken and they lived happily ever after. But Fili wasn’t a prince, he was a bookkeeper to a drunk carpenter, and the marriage offer hadn’t worked anyway. So his little act of valour was a failure.
In this world, the dragon failed to destroy Laketown many years ago, the King survived the battle of Five Armies, Bard is the properly elected leader of Laketown, and Fili and Kili are literally the boys next door who were raised with no idea of their royal heritage.
The lives Fili and Sigrid live are small and dull and rather damp, but at least they have each other; but the world beyond is about to come crashing in.

Ties That Bind, Bonds That Strengthen by Nami_Roland

Summary
Several things had become clear to her during that long, sleepless night. First, that Byron Stirling was the father of Cecilia Gay's child. This she had known already, but the knowledge had solidified inside her, as plain as if she had seen the words written in Mrs. Stirling's family bible. Second, that none of the Stirlings would ever acknowledge the child's existence, much less their relation to it. And third, that she, Valancy Stirling, stood at a cross road in her life.
Valancy goes early to Roaring Abel's house. Written for the 2023 Blue Castle Fanworks Challenge.

Summary
Barney Snaith is many things - a writer (albeit one with nom de plume), a woodsman, a cat person and, above everything else, a loner. He tried the whole friendship and love things once and it was more than enough, thank you very much. The very last thing he expects to ever do in his life is to get married and yet this is exactly what happens to him one summer evening - and he's the last person to make any sense of it.
Retelling of "Blue Castle" from Barney's POV.

Summary
"... the immortal heart of the woods will beat against ours and its subtle life will steal into our veins and make us its own forever, so that no matter where we go or how widely we wander we shall yet be drawn back to the forest to find our most enduring kinship..."
-- Thistle Harvest, John FosterAnd when I'm awake, or awake enough
he turns upside down, his four paws
in the air
and his eyes dark and fervent."Tell me you love me," he says.
"Tell me again."
-- from "Little Dog’s Rhapsody in the Night," Mary Oliver

Summary
“She walks in starlight in another world...”
Once, Kíli murmured these words to Tauriel as he lay dying. She saved him then, but she couldn’t save him when he met his end upon Ravenhill. Now, centuries later, Tauriel has accepted her loss and returned to Valinor—but when her old friend Legolas arrives with a dwarf at his side, old griefs reawaken and she determines to make her own happy ending. Only this time, it is Kíli who is in another world, and she must enter into the Halls of the Dead to find him.Series
