Rivendell Revisited by paranoidangel

Title: Rivendell Revisited
Author: paranoidangel
Characters/Pairing: Lord and Lady of Imladris (and that's all I'm telling you)
Rating: G
Book/Source: Appendices
Disclaimer: Not mine, guv
Author's Note: This was partially inspired by edoraslass' Undercurrents. When I read it it reminded me of a scene in an unfinished story - this is the exceedingly cut-down version

All of Imladris stood enchanted as they watched their Lord and Lady dance. It had been many months since Elrond had taken up this duty and, although his face was still grave, they hoped this was a sign that the dark days were now behind them.

Their eyes slid away from the Lady, yet if they had looked more closely they would have noticed the couple's eyes did not meet and they did not dance together as easily as they were used to seeing. In time, they would improve, as both Elrond and Arwen grew used to her new role.

Oh, this is painful -- and I mean that in the best way possible. That would have been so difficult for everyone, Elrond and Arwen most of all.
I'm glad you were reminded of it.

That is definitely the best way possible because I was going for painful :)

I've never thought of Arwen having to step up and take Celebrian's place in so many ways there - what a bittersweet experience for Elrond, to have to watch! Thanks for reminding me of this.

I'm glad it's made you think of something new!

Ok, my head must be in an odd place this morning, because this really disturbed me. For some reason, I can only see this as an incest fic, with Arwen really taking her mother's role in Imladris.

I think I need a drink now.

It's not just you, I had disturbing incest-like visions while writing this.

Oh good, not just me then. It made me feel a little...unclean.

Eek. And also, goosebump-y disturbing. *shivers*

Incest was the first thing that sprang to my mind, too, so I'm glad I'm not weird, but just part of a minority.

Thanks, that was the reaction I was going for (the shivery one, not so much the incesty one :))
