Fic: Turn of the Tide (10/15)

[matan4il.livejournal.com]

Disclaimer: Were Tolkien but a little less latent about Legolas and Aragorn, I'm sure he'd have written this sort of slashy take himself. But he wasn't and he didn't, so there you go.
Summary: The Prince of Mirkwood is set to visit Rivendell and tutor Estel in the art of war.
Pairing: Legolas/Estel (young Aragorn)
Rating: Overall, as NC-17 as NC-16+1.
Warnings: Angst.
Notes: 1. The text in italics represents Estel's thoughts.
2. The timeline jumps around a little, but I doubt it's highly confusing.
3. Ada means father, Mellon-nin means my friend.
Dedicated: * To a special muse, tillie1202, who requested this fic.
* To the ever gorgeous whitewizzy, who made the banner.
* To beautiful ellel, who helped whip this fic into canon.
* To the incredible soar38, whose love and devotion save my fics.
You are all loved so much! ♥
