Children of Húrin drabble

[dreamflower]

I've written a drabble that is not hobbits, nor even LotR! It's set in The Children of Húrin by JRRT, and posted at great_tales:

Labadal and Túrin: Pity

I may do several drabbles on these two. I find the relationship fascinating.

This is lovely... Labadal is such a lovely character in CoH and one of the few bright spots in Turin's childhood. I think he's right, sadly; Turin would have been happier had he been born a peasant.

*nods* Exactly. I guess that's why the character just sort of leaped out at me. He seemed to have more affection for the child than his own mother, and more time for him than his father.

I've wanted fic about these two for a while, and finally decided I'd have to write it myself.
