In Love and War by Milady Hawke (R)

This is my last rec of the month-- Thanks for letting me drive you around! I've really enjoyed myself, and I hope I've provided some interesting reading material.

Fandom: LORD OF THE RINGS
Pairing: Aragorn/Legolas
Author on lj: Unknown
Author website: Unknown
Why this must be read: Too often, the Aragorn/Legolas pairing is depicted as flawless and pretty, an equal partnership where both sides give as much as they take. But, as Wes from AtS said, "It's not always about holding hands," especially between two warriors in battle. This fic is short but harsh, an unflattering portrait of inequality.

Often, they say, one does not later remember their violence in the mad rush of battle, scarce recalling a face out of all they have slain, and I wonder if it is the same for you the mornings after you've fucked me relentlessly. I would not know. You never stay the night.

I recently went googling my name and saw it turn up in this unexpected place. Was really tickled in all the right places, as I've never been recced before.

Glad you liked, hon. *g* I'm kinda partial to this piece myself ;)
