Summary
There’s that post-adrenaline jitter in his eyes that you’re familiar with yourself; caught somewhere between fight-flight-freeze. Paralysed in survival mode. The ugly type that lingers after gruesome violence, and you’re left scorched with little else of your humanity but the animalistic remnants of raw, buzzing energy that leads you spiraling downwind if you don’t steady yourself quick enough.
(Sometimes, it’s so easy to forget Shay Cormac is just a man doing what he believes is right.)
or: Shay Cormac saves your life. You may or may not have left some details behind, after Connor questions you.

Summary
The Valar come to judge Mairon is not completely irredeemable.
Morgoth could not corrupt him into total, utter darkness, for all his twisted efforts. Merely, he’d focused him like how one would fit blinders on a horse; to steer him downwind to a single path: destruction. Perhaps the more proper way to put it is that Morgoth had only succeeded in conditioning him to abide in shadow; and so Sauron was borne not completely blinded, but instead simply suffering from acute tunnel vision—
And where there is a tunnel, there shall also be a light at the end of it.
It just so happens the light looks a lot like you.
Or:
MaironSauron repents. The Valar test his resolve— by placing you in his path. -

Summary
You were fair and witty and mighty. A forge-fire of life that did not burn but instead tempered, whose hands were calloused from craft yet gentle in touch, whose heart had beat fiercely and still loved tenderly. You were a brilliance of light to Lindon, standing alongside the High King.
But if meeting you had brought out the best in Gil-Galad, then losing you brought out the worst.
or: You fall at the Battle of Eregion. Lindon grieves their High Queen; Gil-Galad grieves his wife.
or: You haunt the narrative.

Summary
He journeys with you for a sennight North, with the acorn in his hold; had kept you steadfast all the way to the tilled grounds of the village.
And alas when the time had come: If your fingers didn’t shake neath the earth; if you didn’t falter your grip on seed and soil as you planted—
It was because Elrond was there, standing with you.
or: You & Elrond have been at odds for as long as you both can remember. So when did it all start to change?
or: Everyone’s sick & tired of Elrond’s lovesick denial.
