Written for the same SWG Instadrabbling event as the previous chapter; these were written for a Truth or Dare game, where one chooses a character and writes to, of course, a truth or dare prompt.
Truth or Dare
Eärendil
Dare: Sailing from Sirion to Aman
When Eärendil announced his intentions to Círdan and Gil-galad, both of them sighed. Círdan pinched the bridge of his nose. "Your grandfather had the same idea," Gil-galad said. "Did you ever ask Voronwë how it went?"
"But this time will be different," Eärendil said, keeping his arms crossed so they could not see his hands shaking. "With all due respect, my king, I am not here to ask permission."
"No, of course not," said Gil-galad. "Why are you here, then, Cousin?"
"I need a ship."
Círdan rose and drained his glass. "We had best get to work, then," he said.

Truth or Dare
Elwing
Dare: Transform into a bird for the 2nd time without Ulmo's help
She could feel it—her arms aching to turn back to wings, the feathers itching under her skin. When Elwing closed her eyes she could almost feel the wind beneath her, buoying her up toward the skies. She opened them and looked down from her perch atop a high rock that Alqualondë's swimmers often used for diving at the clear cerulean water.
If she jumped, there was no danger—not here. The sun was shining, sparkling on Eldamar. Still her heart pounded as Elwing rose from her crouch. She took a deep breath, flung herself from the stone—and soared.
