Summary:
Findekano exclaimed, "Russandol, will you please just tell me who I am married to? And you can tell me who you are married to, while you're at it."
Maitimo took a deep breath, as if to gather his courage. Then he began, "Findekano, we are married . . ."
"Yes, we've established that much!"
"To eachother," Maitimo finished.
"Oh!" breathed Findekano, too shocked to think of anything else to say. But as his shock receded, he quickly became intrigued by the notion of his handsome, kind, clever, and quietly sarcastic best friend being one and the same as his husband.
Meanwhile, Maitimo was maundering on in an endearing fashion, “But don't worry, I'm happy to be only a friend to you from now until you recover your memories. Or forever, if you come to your senses and decide that you'd prefer not to be tied to me for the rest of eternity."
"Russandol, stop being ridiculous and kiss me," commanded Findekano.
Or, in which Findekano suffers a head injury and loses four Ages worth of memories. He is delighted to learn that his best friend makes for a most excellent husband (even if Maitimo did conquer two kingdoms a few Ages ago under the mistaken impression that his family would suffer eternal torment in the Void if he didn’t).Major Characters: Maedhros, Fingon, Elrond

Chapter 1 summary:
Prince Findekano has just awoken in a strange room with a splitting headache and no memory of how he came to be in such a sorry situation. But he’s not frightened, because his best friend Maitimo is by his side. Findekano isn't even frightened to learn that Maitimo thinks he has ‘partial temporal amnesia,’ whatever that is, because Maitimo does not seem unduly alarmed.
Findekano does not care for healers, as a general rule. He dislikes their poking and prodding. He dislikes their fussiness. He most especially dislikes their irritating habit of being excessively cautious when it comes to declaring Findekano healed enough to return to his favorite activities. But, as a special favor to Maitimo, Findekano patiently allows Master Healer Elrond to examine him. He definitely plans to collect on that favor from Maitimo later, though.
Author’s Notes:
A/N 1: Regarding Fingon’s and Maedhros’ nicknames for one another: “my Bright Flame” and “my Eagle” have been their nicknames for one another since they were young elves in Valinor, long before Fingon’s rescue of Maedhros from Thangorodrim. Maedhros started calling Fingon “my Eagle” when Fingon was a small child, because Fingon loved all birds, especially Manwe’s noble eagles. Fingon started calling Maedhros “my Bright Flame” when he was a teenager, because Maedhros was clever and because Maedhros was always warm (and always happy to let Fingon sit next to him and share in his warmth when Fingon was cold).
Quotes:
“Long before, in the bliss of Valinor, before Melkor was unchained, or lies came between them, Fingon had been close in friendship with Maedhros . . .” – J.R.R. Tolkien
