It's my question that was stupidly worded, or rather missing key info. It should have been 'Wasn't Gil-galad a double bearer for a while?' I have not researched this beyond the Silm, which mentions him as the first bearer of two, so I have no idea *when* the rings got passed around.

In my head, I've even sort of been assuming that Celebrimbor only sent them out once he was aware of Annatar's betrayal--or maybe that he gave Galadriel one ahead of time, since he fancied her and all. But I guess I suspected that one of them was intended for Celebrimbor himself, because surely he would want to benefit from all his work, and that he sent it to G-g only in a panic when he knew that Sauron was on his way.

Hmm. Now this is a reasonably-sized bunny. I have to do some research, but unless I find a contradiction, I will assume that the people who held the Rings at that moment were Galadriel, Gil-galad, and Celebrimbor.


And I meant my first fic, Gathering the Pieces (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1714091/1/). It doesn't explain where he got the sword he learnt with, but I think he just took one from a smithy. It does explain where he got the one he ended up using... and it definitely describes him practicing.
