Notes:

This story took a long time to write. Along the way I got a lot of help from the marvellous RaisingCaiin, who agreed to beta this story and successfully dragged it through the Purgatory of Proofreading. – Thank you so much for taking the time to read through this and offering so many helpful suggestions along with a lot of constructive criticism (and commas).

This story also owes its existence partially to arrogantemu, whose magnificent take on Celebrimbor and Annatar brought me on board for this trainwreck duo in the first place and provided a load of inspiration for my own take on these two.

On a further note, I got to do a lot of research on telescopes, astrometry, wavelengths and optics that led me down a Wikipedia rabbit hole of epic proportions, which was awesome – but it might have had to do something with the time it took to finish the story.
Anyway, now it's written and finished, and this leaves me with nothing more than to wish everyone who reads this a lot of fun.

Fanwork Information

Summary: “I had settled for salvaging what was left out of the ashes of the old world and rebuilding what had been lost,” Celebrimbor said. “But then you came, and your arrival changed everything. We have learned and achieved so much in such a short span of time. And we've indeed created a Middle-earth that is beautiful, and no less worthy for the trials it has faced. If anything, Aman is less for its perfection, because its beauty has never been tried in the way my home has been tried.” “Our home,” Annatar amended softly. Celebrimbor looked at him for a few moments. "Our home," he repeated, and then, after a pause– “I am glad you chose these shores.” “So am I,” Annatar replied. On a late summer night during the golden years of Ost-in-Edhil, Annatar and Celebrimbor have a long talk about power, ambition, freedom, and forgiveness. It is the night when their shared hopes bring them closer together than they have ever been before, and it is the day when their dangerous ambition sets the events in motion that will first drive them apart and eventually destroy them both.
