This is utterly delightful! I love how you've written it in a similar tone to the Father Christmas Letters.

The image of this tall Noldo with all the little green and red polar elves is so charming. And now I'm very curious to know whether Annatar actually came back as Father Christmas and how things proceed now that Celebrimbor is at the NP.

 

Oh, this is so lovely, and such a great idea! But sad - poor Celebrimbor, feeling he needs to cross the Ice in order to find peace, as if he hasn't already suffered enough. :( I hope he can find healing in inventing and making gifts which bring happiness to others - I can't wait to read more of this. I must admit, I'm not very familiar with the Father Christmas Letters, but I really want to read them now!

Aw, this was adorable!  I first thought it might have been a Terror cross-over perhaps, with a northern journey, (and I didn't read what the cross-over was with at first) but this was delightful.  Polar Bear <3

I'm so glad you've updated this! Poor Celebrimbor though - apparently safe but not quite happy, reluctant to go outside and missing a partner who's on his level. It's good that he manages to have some fun in the snow! I'm excited and nervous to see what happens next. I'm ashamed to say I still haven't read the FCLs - but maybe this year it will happen...

(Edited to add: I'm so touched by the details you include, such as Celebrimbor liking the blocks because they aren't round, and his poignant childhood memories. Also, I've suddenly thought to listen to the FCLs audiobook, while knitting a Christmas blanket for my grandson - all very lovely and festive! :) )
