Lise's Yuletide Rec List (thus far)

Silmarillion
Her Eyes - Future!fic, in which Elves are released from Mandos. Everything about this I love. There are perfect little details - Caranthir likes the modern arms trade, Celegorm makes a brief appearance as his annoyed and slightly disappointed self, and Aegnor and Finrod are spot on and it's just - adorable all over and the ending ( Read more... )

ahahaha, I feel ricockulous saying this, but I almost want you to rec things anyway and I would be curious if anything of mine would turn up on there without your knowing that I wrote it. >.> But that's ricockulous.

Oooh, how would you set it up? Just curious, because that actually was one of my favoritest favoritest parts. Though of course it implies dragons/people which is one of those things I kind of avoid touching much. *blink*

awwwwww that one is really cute I do like that one (and it isn't mine). And well you can so do the reverse! I mean, I would be just as curious that way, since you know. I'll never get concrit/neg. feedback for these otherwise, aight? So I'd be curious and I doubt you are going to Hurt My Feelings honestly, because mostly I just like to know how things come out sounding. And the things I'm proudest of I'm probably going to feel good about regardless so.

And yes, keep me posted!

The DoL fic is lovely. The grasp on everyone's voices is just wonderful.

Oh man, it was glorious. Thank you so much for sharing! /do you have more of that pairing/fic I can reeed. XD I'm pretty picky about my Silmarillion fic/characterization so it really makes me glee when something meshes this thoroughly. SO YES congratulations.

Thank you! Silmarillion is so hard to get right, because I wanted to do the language in keeping with the story, without it being overblown. And I am a *huge* Tolkien fan. (Have a degree in Linguistics and an Elvish tattoo huge. *g*) I'm really glad it worked.

I don't have any more of that pairing, I'm afraid; the only other Tolkien-based fic I've written is LotR. You can check out all my stuff on my AO3 page, if you're interested. :)

I'm glad you liked it! I was trying to decide between writing Jeyne/Robb at The Crag vs. Jon+Robb at Winterfell and eventually realized that the former might get a bit too involved (like 20k+ words) for Yuletide. Maybe I'll still write it sometime. Hm.

And yes, it seems like we have the exact same personal pseudo-canon.
