Summary
He was silent for a moment. She heard his cloak rustle, the sound of his hand grasp one of the bars. The gentle tap of his rings against the metal filled her ears, and she shut her eyes.
“When you denied an alliance with me, I found other means of quenching my thirst.”
“For violence and depravity?” she shot back.
“For vengeance,” he hissed. “Just as you sought yours. Keep your righteousness to yourself. I care not for it. These Men, these Númenóreans, fought against me in the Great War. Slew countless lives. With their pride and their arrogance in their mighty goodness. They thought they were better than the rest of us as you yourself believed you were better than me.” His voice dropped to a whisper. “I wanted to see them suffer. I have achieved so much more than that.”
Written for an anonymous tumblr prompt: During Ar-Pharazôn’s rule of Númenor when Sauron holds the position of the High Priest of Melkor, Galadriel is captured in the middle of a war, imprisoned, and handed over to him as a sacrifice to be made in the Temple of the High Priest, but Sauron has other plans. From Akallabêth to the founding of Gondor, unlikely allies are forged.

Summary
Halbrand, heir to the throne of the Southlands, finds himself stranded in the middle of the ocean with only the old man Diarmid for a friend. That is, until they rescue Galadriel, Commander of the Northern Armies, from the bitter waters. Picked up by a Númenorean ship on its way home, the trio finds safety within the island kingdom. Galadriel will not let Halbrand forget his destiny, or avoid it.
But the Shadow is once again stirring in Middle-earth, and when they discover that Halbrand is more than he seems, Galadriel is confronted with a painful past more intimately tied to Halbrand's future than either of them could have guessed. Thrust into a destiny he never wanted, Halbrand must now choose between finding the light and touching the darkness.
half-Maia!Halbrand AU. Rework of The Raft, Númenor, the lost king of the Southlands plot in Season 1, Eregion, and more. Canon-divergent.

a thousand times the mysteries unfold themselves by rhia474

Summary
Short summary, because I suck at those: another elf shows up at Tirharad at the same time the Numenoreans do, and Elendil discovers he is not the tallest person in Middle-Earth (yes, that needs fixing as well). An attempt to resurrect a very old fanfic series I never published and see if I can meld it with the new Rings of Power series. Keeping most of the series characterizations but allowing for canon to flow in where it needs to, with the addition of an OC.
Warning: please note added tags for chapter 8 and read note therein. Thank you. Spicy chapters are usually marked in the headnote, and start with Chapter 11.

Summary
Halbrand dipped his head, and Galadriel’s heart jumped in anticipation, but his lips only grazed her cheek. “You’re the one who said ours was no chance meeting. We were brought together for a reason.”
“We should stay focused on the difficult journey ahead,” she whispered. “Distractions during the upcoming battle could be fatal.” This venture was only an expedition but would likely turn into something much deadlier.
“That is tomorrow’s concern, which I will treat with utmost seriousness and urgency,” Halbrand vowed. “But what of tonight?” He asked in a low voice, his lips hovering just above hers.
Galadriel could hardly breathe. And could think of no more excuses to not reach for what her heart greatly desired.

Summary
She said, with that voice full of superstition and fear, that it wasn’t wise to walk under the full moon, carrying blood in her womb. According to Míriel, the darkness could feel... perceive... and certain things would awaken when the scent of blood spread through the mist.
But Galadriel had never allowed herself to be swayed by her friend’s superstitions. After all, even before blooming at fourteen, she had walked alone across the vast estate, guided only by the pale light of the moon. She would silently admire the vastness of the night sky, where the stars seemed like distant and indifferent gods. Galadriel reveled in the cold touch of dew on her skin, the icy kiss of the full moon on her face, while her voice was lost in the darkness, offering songs to the ghosts.

Summary
“There is the heat of Love, the pulsing rush of Longing, the lover’s whisper, irresistible — magic to make the sanest man go mad.” — Homer.
A Man and an Elf; an unlikely pairing that brings with it judgemental eyes and inevitable tragedy. Galadriel knows this, and even still she cannot resist the cosmic bond she shares with Halbrand of the Southlands, the human with a mysterious past who saved her life. Nor can Halbrand resist the connection he shares with this unruly Elf. They are alone, cast out for their past actions, and tempted by both desire and darkness that consumes them. In her, he sees an opportunity for redemption and in him, she finds an unlikely sense of belonging. While evil forces work in the shadows to destroy that which they hold dear in Middle Earth, will their bond lead to salvation or result in their doom?
This is my take on a Second Age story in which Halbrand was just a mortal man after all, written for those who miss Human Halbrand as much as I do.

Summary
“Influencer?” he guessed.
She giggled, and the sound cracked something open in his chest. It was real, and it warmed him. “Close,” she said, lowering her voice to something more sensual. Her heel traced the inside of his leg again, slow and deliberate. “But not quite.”
Halbrand considered it all. The no-show, the confidence, the clothes, the jewelry, the attitude. He imagined her social media filled with photos from Numenor, or the Emerald Isles, or somewhere equally exotic. He leaned closer, dropping his voice just above a whisper. “You work in the adult industry.”
She snorted and shook her head, amused. “You make it sound scandalous. But yes, it does involve... adult things.” She gave a sly smile. “One more guess.”

Or: Halbrand shoots his shot with a lonely girl at a bar in the Upper East End of Lindon and gets drawn back into a world he tried so hard to claw himself out of.

Stupid Things We Do on Vacation by Reese

Summary
Galadriel’s just here for sun, sand, and a week of overdue chaos with her old friend group. The kind of vacation you swear you’ll plan every year but never do. She’s got her sunglasses, her reading list, and a firm plan to ignore anyone who threatens her peace.
Unfortunately, one of those threats just showed up - uninvited, sun-kissed, and wearing a smirk she hasn’t seen in years.
Now she’s stuck with him for seven days of beach games, group dares, and dangerously nostalgic tension.
And the thing is? Galadriel has never been able to back down from a challenge.

Summary
“You’ve just been standing here this whole time?”
She swallows and nods.
Hal presses his lips into a tight line as he considers her, then, with a sigh, tilts his head toward the dance floor. “Come on, then.”
Galadriel’s heart stops. “What?” It’s hard to catch her breath.
“I think what he meant to say,” Bronwyn clarifies, staring daggers at him, “is ‘would you like to dance?’”
A rush of panic floods Galadriel. “Oh,” her pulse feels too loud, her cheeks are too hot, “I can’t— I mean, I don’t know how— I’ve never— well, not like that—“
“Don’t be silly,” Bronwyn says, giving her a gentle nudge toward him, “Hal can lead anybody.”
“Well?” His hand remains outstretched as he waits for a real response. “It’s now or never.”
---
“Your body knows how to respond,” his hand skims her waist, “so tell your mind to get the hell out of it’s way.”
or: the Dirty Dancing AU.

Summary
"Something about the way he moved through the world, the gentleness of his speech yet ferocity of intention with which he said it…the sparks in the air between them, the way their eyes sometimes met…she didn't want to feel that draw of oxygen to fire, something sustaining *and* consuming...but she did."

Bronwyn struggles with accepting the love clearly between her an Arondir ~ yet it is a force that will not be denied.
I believe that Aronwyn deserve more fics, so here that is :) There is heartbreak, but also hope, I promise :)

As he wishes to expand his armies to regain power and cannot create Maiar on his own, he resorts to his former servant Mairon, now held in captivity as a slave, to breed him some. As Melkor searches through the Maia’s mind, he knows exactly how to further torture his former chief lieutenant, and which Elf to choose to carry out his perverse plan.

Summary
“ '...what’s it like, to…not have the Gift? To have no foreseeable end to the life you’re currently in? To know where you’ll go should your body perish…but not knowing if that’ll ever really happen?'
Arondir considered for a moment. The Secondborn was asking about monumental matters, mused about by Rúmil and debated by Finrod and Andreth. Then he thought of some sort of answer he could give."
~~~~
Arondir and Isildur share a meal and then walk to check on Berek, as they do discussing various matters...some perhaps weightier than either of them expected.
