as the shrike by laurefindele
Fanwork Notes
First published silmfic! This started off as an Ecthelion character study that spiraled wildly out of control, and will now likely end up as a very unwieldy multi-chapter work. Have left this unrated for now as the first chapter is quite mild, but I do plan for sexual content in the future, as well as some emotionally heavy and potentially triggering scenes as dear Ecthelion works through his internalized self-hatred. Everyone please wish him luck.
For Glorthelion Week on Tumblr, and for the Twenty-Five challenge prompt "I have made my choice." Vaguely inspired by Hozier's "Shrike."
Enjoy!
