Summary
"A child," it's the only thing that he can think to say after he hears Galadriel's tale. "Sauron has a child."
Adar stares down at the infant in her arms. By all rights, he should hate her: this child of two of his greatest foes. These two, together, had ripped apart his heart and his family piece by bloody piece. Sauron the Deceiver and Galadriel, the Greatest Slayer of the Uruks had a daughter.
‘I should want her dead,’ he thinks as he looks at her, and he is surprised at how much he means it when he concludes: ’but I don't.’

Summary
Lately she has been wondering if Nenya was the only thing keeping her warm all those years.
Her bones ache and creak. There is nothing but an empty rattle to her lungs. Her heart may as well have left her.And his presence alone has her ring burning with life upon her finger once more. She feels rage and confusion and grief like fire in her stomach. Her words bubble up her throat, spiteful and sharp as flames. It warms her through and though she resents it, she can feel the beginnings of purpose twitching to life in her veins. Because she does not know where she wishes to go. What she wishes to see.
But she knows what he must.Galadriel does not sail into the west. She cannot bring herself to. Alone, she encounters a lost man piecing together his own fractured identity and wishes to make the both of them hurt.

Summary
“This all sounds delightfully convenient for the tale you wish me to believe. But I need proof.”
“Proof?” she wondered aloud.
“Of your intent,” he smirked. “Kiss me.”
Galadriel continued to meet his gaze, defiant and enduring. “A true king would court his chosen queen first.”
“Have I not courted you for years now, Elf?” Sauron trailed two fingers over her cheek, pressed them gently at the hinge of her jaw. “Ah I see,” he added, observing every small change in her expression. “You desire the man. Let it never be said that I would deny you, my queen.”
—————OR -
Have you ever kissed you enemy so hard you end up trapped together in a mind-labyrinth?
Written for the 2026 Haladriel fic exchange.

It is 10,000 years since the fall of Sauron and the last of the elves had left Middle Earth for Valinor. Sauron was left as a spirit of malice, to never be able to reform. Galadriel, Elrond and Finrod are sent by the Valar to 1853 gold rush California, to confirm that Sauron has indeed entered a fair form and is up to his old tricks.
What will they find in this new world?

Summary
"Why have you come here, then?"
He regards her again, bemused. "You called me," he replies, softly.
Galadriel's mouth opens then closes.
She may have thought of him, the Dark Lord, on his knees in front of her; equal parts exciting and terrifying. The perfect imperious slope of his profile, the dismissive turn to his lips. How it had all softened when his head met her middle.
A guilty tendril curls through her. She swallows it down, and finds her voice. "I have done no such thing."
---
When Sauron stabs Galadriel above Eregion he unknowingly opens a rift in their minds that will haunt the two of them through the second and third age and on, until the end of the world.
