Summary
Rían tilted her head, her lips curving into a playful smirk. “That’s a very noble answer. Too noble, even for you.”
He chuckled, his gaze flickering to her for a moment before looking ahead once more. “You think me incapable of noble thoughts?”
“No,” she said, her teasing edged with warmth. “I think you’re capable of far too many of them. But subtle? Not so much.”
His brow arched, amused. “Not subtle? Whatever makes you say that?”
She gave him a pointed look, her smirk growing. “I saw you glaring at Éomer earlier. If looks could kill, Gondor and Rohan would have a diplomatic crisis on their hands.”
Faramir flushed slightly, but his laugh was genuine. “That wasn’t glaring. I was… assessing.”
***
Faramir of Gondor and Rían of the Dúnedain are brought together in Rivendell to join the Fellowship of the Ring. Through the perilous depths of Moria, the fires of Helm’s Deep, and the battlefields of the Pelennor, they fight side by side, their bond growing amidst the shadow of war. Though duty binds them, unspoken feelings simmer beneath the surface as they navigate loss, love, and the hope for a future beyond the darkness.Bookmarked by wonderingbats

Summary
"His head was on her arse. Gandalf was dead. Satan was real. Aragorn was confessing his feelings and she could feel wind on her bum cheeks. Nothing about this was okay. Could he have not given her at least three business days to prepare for this sort of thing? She wanted a nap and a bath and a big bloody glass of wine. Maybe even a wee lobotomy to scrape out the horrors she’d witnessed today."
----------
Beautiful, clever, rich — Maeve Dashwood is perfectly content with her privileged life in London and sees no need for an ambitious career or marriage.
Grubby, useless, terrified — Maeve Dashwood can dig her heels in all she likes, but when destiny comes calling, the Valar will drag her kicking and screaming. Facing a new world of horrors while suffering the graphic withdrawals of modern comforts and medicine, this reluctant and extremely unqualified heroine might be Middle Earth’s only hope. Eru take pity on them all.Series

Summary
V was just a dirtgirl merc from Heywood with big dreams and a sad sack tragic backstory like the rest of them. After losing her best friend and her left arm in a heist gone awry, she's left with nothing but the digital ghost of a long-dead rockerboy trapped on a chip in her head that's slowly killing her.
Suddenly, she's forced to share everything - her mind, her body, her dreams, and his nightmares. As the lines between them start to blur, can they navigate their growing feelings for each other... and find a way to save her before it's too late?
Follows the story of Johnny and V's extremely messy relationship through the game and beyond. Mostly canon compliant with some (okay maybe a lot of) embellishment, especially regarding the endings.
