Summary
For years he was like a comet, orbiting her atmosphere.
Never drawing too close, never going too far. They shared the same solar system and observed each other fleetingly from afar, but had no reason to speak to the other.
He was a legend, a force that drew spectators far and wide, awe-struck at his being. She felt like dust carried on the wind, trying and trying to pull herself together into something strong and wonderful, something others could look upon in that same breathless wonder. Yet no matter how hard she tried, she found herself blown away, strewn across the darkness of space.
Osha thought it would always be like this.
Had no reason to think otherwise.
But where Osha saw space dust, Qimir saw the forming of a star.

Summary
Halbrand laughs against her lips. “We can’t — mm, I have to —“
Galadriel swallows the words whole.
Stay, is what she wants to say.
“I don’t want to go yet,” he murmurs.
“If they catch us — “
He brushes a loose strand of golden hair behind her ear. “It wouldn’t be the first time.”
---
These days, she just wants to be consumed.
or: Galadriel and Halbrand were bad at this in high school. Now, as adults, they might be even worse.

Summary
"Once upon a time there was a soldier, a great warrior of the elves. The youngest child and only daughter of a mighty family. And there was… what am I in this story? The monster, the king?”
In trying to convince Halbrand to leave Númenor and take his place as king of the Southlands, Galadriel swears an oath to stand by him no matter what his past holds. This changes the history of Middle-earth for many centuries to come.
[This is linked to the other stories in this collection - it's an expansion of one of the scenarios in the 5+1 story 'Five times Halbrand's secret got revealed' - but it's a standalone fic that should make sense by itself.]

Summary
"What did she say?" The Darkling asked. The red and gold silk fan covered her mouth, so that he could not make out her words. Only her eyes were visible, curious and searching.
The attendant at her side cast him an appraising look. "The Sun Empress was wondering why you do not bow."
