Spider of Darkness

I am the spider that bound young Frodo Baggins in her silky, sticky web. Her Ladyship, Shelob the Great, or just Shelob will do. M I D D L E E A R T H { More Flags }

How's my baby girl doing?

.... Mom?

I'm doing fine, save for the fact that Sauron thinks I'm his guard spider. And you?

[ask-shelob-blog]

I do not appreciate your pathetic failure to guard the Pass.

Firstly, I'm not on anyone's side, which means I'm not your little guard spider. Secondly, how can I guard anything while I'm starving? If you would be so kind as to send me some Orcs...

What I wouldn't give for a small morsel of Elf...

[ask-shelob-blog]

I see Morgoth has not bothered to follow me...

The damned deal-breaker was terrified of my mother. Perhaps he's terrified of me as well?

[ask-erestor]

Who are you?

Obviously I am thrilled to have you in my life, and your frequent ‘liking’ flatters me, but you are very mysterious…

I cannot help my curiosity.

This "high-functioning-hobbit" also likes much of my blog, too.

Am I not an amazingly beautiful spider queen?

lily-goodbody replied to your post: *sneers just a little* I will not allow you to harm him again. You would have to get to me first.

I haven’t a care what you do with me. You just leave him out of this, alright? I mean…I guess the real question I want to ask is…why him? I’m sure there are other, um…food sources around where you are, am I right?

You are as wrong as you are small, halfling. I get naught but Orc, and that is only on very rare occasion. When my Sneak brought me one halfling, I was delighted; overwhelmed with gratitude when a second arrived, but as you know, that feeling didn't linger for very long. Your Frodo was the closest thing I'd had to a proper meal in months. I advise him not to take things too personally, though; if it were anyone else, say that Aragorn fellow, or perhaps Legolas the Elf, I would not have treated them any differently than I did him.

*sneers just a little* I will not allow you to harm him again. You would have to get to me first.

Not a problem with me, little one; if you put up twice the fight that he did, I will have taken him by the morrow!

[ask-shelob-blog]

So...you must be the spider who stung my dear Frodo. Am I right?

Yes, as a matter of fact, I am. What a pleasure to meet you, little halfling.

Is ... "your dear Frodo" around, so we can finish what we started? I'm afraid he abandoned me in the middle of our fun!

[ask-shelob-blog]

Now, I've just noticed something very interesting, my lady. In the books, you are described as "spider-like" not a giant spider. What are you thoughts on this? How do you differ from a spider?

I have a question for you, greyface; what books do you speak of?

And I differ from a spider because I am magnificent. I thought that would be obvious.

[ask-shelob-blog]

why don't you get together with Smeagol??

Why don't I? Because he is my Sneak. I suppose 'Sneak' would translate to 'best friend' to you mortals. Besides, I am a spider.

And he is... well... he is humanlike.

I do not see how that would work.

[ask-shelob-blog]

As a fellow Tolkien Aficionado, I just wanted to share some Middle-Earth love. Love your blog, Shelob <3

Oh, thank you very much! Perhaps, dearest Andre, I shall save you for last...

[ask-shelob-blog]

What is your favorite thing to do in your spare time?

I enjoy spending time with my Sneak, consuming Elves, and closely following my favourite blogs. Peregrint. Elvenqueer. Do not be afraid.

Haha; look at the terrified expression on the little halfling’s face! If it weren’t for his companion, he would have made such a delicious treat…

[ask-elladan-blog]

Ai, Shelob. It is a good thing that you did not after all! You should be ashamed. Scaring halflings in such a way.

[ask-shelob-blog]

I did not go after this halfling! My Sneak brought him to me. It is the halfling's fault for trusting him, and trying to escape a starving arachnid.

[ask-shelob-blog]

Even I would not mess with Feanor.

In other news, I am starving and resorting to consuming my mortal followers. Who shall be first?

Myla, I am looking to you.

Chest piece :) (Taken with instagram)

[missbassweight-blog]

Chestpiece? Why don’t you just tattoo it on your forehead already.

I’m just gonna laugh with this shit just because I know she’s gonna be crying her eyes out one day because she got this shit tattooed on her fucking chest.

fuck.

[halloweenkuhween-deactivated201]

Lol omg ahahaha

[sequoiadesert-deactivated201206]

I don’t usually talk shit on people who want to get tattoos………………………..but this is just horrible. 

[modificationnotmutilation]

I was gonna say why don’t you just get lyrics instead but then it would say ‘wub wub wuz wub web wooob’. If you’re gonna get it, don’t get it on your chest.

[gocourtneygo]

…………………………..get it. no balls.
