The Hobbit (Jackson Movies)+6

Under These Stars

by dalakh

Chloe and Ella never expected to find themselves stranded in a world of elves, orcs, and ancient magic. They certainly never expected to be caught in the crosshairs of powers beyond comprehension: powers that whisper of times long past, open bounties, and the attention of the Valar themselves.With danger lurking in every shadow, Elrond entrusts Ella and Chloe to the care of his sons, sending them to the Eryn Galen in search of answers. But Thranduil does not give his aid lightly, and the horizon grows darker. The forces that hunt them are growing bolder, and Ella doesn’t understand why. Chloe is the one with the visions. She’s just a girl from England - or so she believes.A story of found family, slow-burning trust, and the fine line between destiny and survival.

unwrite the laws of war

by Petrichor (Mythmaker)

"Last time we were in proximity of each other, you considered me cannon fodder," Obi-Wan said, the words gentle like a knife in the dark, sliding through Cody's ribs. He didn't know precisely what Obi-Wan meant; he couldn't really remember the details. But he didn't have to know. It was not meant as a kindness. Cody couldn't really feel outrage about it. He couldn't really let himself feel much of anything. "Haven't you heard?" he let the rhetorical nature of the question leak through his tone. "I'm a traitor too." == Finding Obi-Wan had been Cody's mission from the beginning. The trouble was knowing what to do with him when he finally found him.
