Second day of Fic Rec Days!

I mostly only read Kiliel fics, but exceptions had to be made for these Hobbit fics:

  • Sansukh by @determamfidd. This is the mothership of all Hobbit and LoTR fics! Unless you’re new to the fandom or have been living without internet or not into fanfics, there’s no excuse for you not to be reading this. I’m not a Bagginshield or Gigolas shipper, but this one made me one, at least for this story. There’s also an appendices of side stories that are excellent and there’s some incredible fanart and music, too.
  • Rites of Passage by @eldritchmage. Fili & Kili fic. This one is set when they’re in their mid to late teens. There were some bits in the beginning that were very upsetting, but the adventure they’re on is a great ride. This fic is part of the Kili and Tauriel series, so take a look.
  • Under new management by frostyjack. Fili & Kili fic. Rites of Passage inspired me to find other Fili & Kili fics, so I did a quick search and found this. The writing is excellent and the characters are utterly engaging. This made me teary in several places. Fili and Kili aren’t brothers, and there’s a lot of hurt!Kili. It’s set in modern day Cambridge, Fili is at university, and Kili has been taken in as a foster child. Some parts are very upsetting (there’s sexual and physical abuse, PTSD, panic attacks) so it may not be for you.
  • Peredhil by @magnoliamagic (maggiemaye). This one is more about Kili and Tauriel’s children, although there’s quite a bit of Kiliel in it. This fic is part of a series called Under the Mountain where Kili and Tauriel and their children are the main characters. You should read all of the fics in the series!
  • Dare You To Move by @montgirloflumatere (Mont_Girl_Of_Lumatere). Fili/Sigrid fic. I’m not a huge fan of Fili and Sigrid, but this one is really well done. I love the portrayal of Sigrid in this one.
  • Surviving by @purajobot935. Fili & Tauriel fic. Kili is dead, but he’s still an important presence in this story. Fili is king and invites Tauriel to live at Erebor. I’m reading it for the Fili & Tauriel relationship. There aren’t too many fics with the pair of them and this one is a pleasure to read.

Happy reading!

Ahh, thank you so so much!
