Weibo name: Shijiao Lu Elisa [Thranduil/Legolas father-and-son longfic] When Thranduil returned home from the battlefield, weary to his bones, a nightmare awaited him... And after the nightmare faded, hope emerged like fresh green leaves. “I'll name him ‘Legolas’...” he said through his tears, but a smile of hope and happiness spread across his face. As Legolas grew up, Thranduil strove not only to become a good king, but also to learn how to be a good father. He did his utmost to keep his affection from becoming a stumbling block in his son's growth, yet he could hardly ever tear his gaze away from that bright-eyed young elf who was growing up day by day. Everything seemed peaceful and secure until darkness once again fell over Mirkwood. Legolas finally proved his courage in his first battle, but nearly paid for it with the loss of his beloved father. And Elrond's prophecy weighed even more heavily on Thranduil's heart than all the shadows combined. When that day comes, will his beloved son, his happy little green leaf, really leave him forever? Every parent hopes their child will grow up quickly, watching those young, fearless shoulders take up their own place beneath the sky, while they stand proudly smiling in the background. Yet every parent also wishes their child would never grow up, so they could keep protecting them in their arms, building a peaceful haven for them and enjoying their innocent smiles forever. Legolas has grown up. The little one who used to tug on his golden hair and babble “Ada” has become a tall warrior. He has a path of his own to follow, and Thranduil knows he cannot stop him, nor should he.
