Broken Bud by CompanionWanderer reviews
"Taran's heart was suddenly and strangely heavy." Self-knowledge too late is bittersweet. A literary adaptation of my comic Spring, Fallen, which details the Apple Tree Incident we get to hear about only peripherally. Because there just cannot be too many versions of this scene. :P

Made of Earth and Rain by CompanionWanderer reviews
"He muttered something about leaving the diplomacy up to her, since she was so fond of /talking/, and she laughed, and set about assuring him that, as much as she loved words, she loved him much, much more." Prydain, post High-King. Newlywed novelty, and why it all matters, in the grand scheme of things. Note: this carries an extra-spicy T-rating, but is non-explicit, as ever.

Scars by CompanionWanderer reviews
They were landmarks on a map, every one a reminder of some good thing he'd done, even in his ignorant youth; each blemish a monument to his courage, to his compassion. She could not regret them, for that reason alone, and if she had to keep saving his life again and again, well…she was good at that, by now. /post-series, Taran/Eilonwy, T , romance with a dash of angst, COMPLETE
