Ooooh, good question.

Okay, so The Brides of Death/Gift of Men is no longer even my second most popular via hits- if still by kudos, but I am proud of how it is -I think- my first breakout fic, got fanart and recs, for a single sitting the writing is still one of my best- plotting structure and otherwise. Howl, its quasi-sequel, is a weaker fic but it has zero elves, of which I am proud. Of the Beren’s Band of the Red Hand, I’m proud of fleshing out these near textual ghosts and really highlighting underutilized areas, but Release from Bondage is I think the strongest. It really goes for tying together the Silm from a pov angle that is both unique and yet natural, that I could really get the fusion up to using several lines and yet have those ASoIaF seamlessly integrated. And it’s a multi-chaptered long fic and a slow-burn romance. The proper Tol-in-Gaurhoth fics I’m most proud of are Arodreth, Heledir, and Consael’s, and maybe Ethir. Bân I think the writing is weaker, maybe just because I struggled for so long on that one and it is so long, too long, for readers, but as a fusion complete with recontextualizing the original FFVII:CC plot and lines to fit the Silm and for just how much world-building I could do and canon tidbits to use, I am most proud.

Of Ingwë Ingweron just for manhandling readers into going “Vanyar! Fancinating! Ingwë is a dimensional character! Prehistoric elves! Valar as otherworldly but not creepy! Vanyar!”
