9. 3 is the worst choice btw
1-Any of the 3 seats around 1 WILL have bare Gollum ass foot and taint on them at some point. Those seats appear empty but are in fact occupied by his various alternate identities
2- Seems innocent enough, and Frodo will mostly keep to himself, but Sam will absolutely be waking you up getting him granola bars and shit out of their carry-ons. Will also meanmug you if you try to get up to use the bathroom. Gollum will also be leaning in and hanging over your shoulders whenever he takes a break from kicking the seat.
3- Out of the question, unless you are 7-19 year old extrovert and/or have nothing to lose. WILL clap when the plane lands. WILL eat your crackers if you’re asleep when the flight attendant comes around. Very little consideration for personal space.
4- It’ll be a long silent flight and they’ll both be courteous and polite but there will absolutely be a heavy third-wheel sort of tension, like they’re too nice to say anything but would be way happier if you weren’t there. Your only chance is to offer to switch seats so they can hold hands, but Aragorn WILL take a nap at some point and he WILL talk in his sleep. Also, if you switch for the aisle seat you will need to keep in mind that Legolas is absolutely going to recline his own chair directly on top of you.
5- Faramir is a sleep mask and headphones type of guy, and the window will remain closed. Eowyn’s longing glances to the right may be overlooked, but she’s also the type to monologue at increasing volume if you get to chatting and reach a topic she’s passionate about. Seat 5 is my personal choice, as it presents the lowest possible chance of waking up to a makeout sesh on either side OR a missing eyebrow.
6- Depending where the relationship dynamic is at at this point, it’s a coin toss between “Grandpa’s War Stories” and 8 straight hours of “I’m Not Touching You”, “Stop Hitting Yourself” type shenanigans on both sides. Also, putting the Dwarf in the window seat was a bad idea. You KNOW he gets airsick, and placing him in a corner directly between the only three elves was an act of direct biological warfare on the side of the airline.
7- Not the worst choice, as long as you don’t ask any questions about the family. Boromir is the type to share his political opinions at length unprompted, though, and responding in any way will only make it worse.
8- You are not cool enough to sit here.
9- This is an aisle seat, which is good, because you can get up to fake a bathroom visit when the vibes get too bad. Feels like going on a road trip with your dysfunctional parents only for them to announce their turbulent and resentful impending divorce mid way through. When it’s good, Galadriel and Gandalf will lean around you for a catty bitch sesh without you, which will also be bad, but at least you can listen in on the hottest gossip. Only gets worse when the edible Gandalf pops at take-off finally kicks in.
3 because we’re going to make this flight everyone else’s problem
8 because @skatesfullofsunshine is right, Elrond would have the best snacks.
6 is tempting as they would just bicker the whole time and I would be cackling the whole time.
9 is the worst. No way I'm hell am I sitting next to those two! I would be willing to sit next to Saruman but not those two together. I would sit next to Gollum before those two.
what do you mean my disability disables my abilities? what the fuck
I made a thing. Happy pride 🏳️🌈
Stealth kitty didn't have train fare
NWALIN LOVE!
They are the cutest of patoots, oh and Nori likes his Dwalins shirtless ^_^ I had to dig up a piece I did a year ago for Dwalin’s hand tattoo reference (one of my all time favorite hobbit drawings I’ve done btw). It creeped me out cuz I could have sworn that piece was 3 years old, but nope, only a year and a half. Time sure does fly.
I was super grossed out by all of the other old drawing i saw when looking for it. I saw the flower series that I never finished :P Might have to try that series again sometime.
They are sooooooooooooooooooooooo sooooooooooooooooooooooo cute!!!!!!!!!!!! I love Dwalin's tattoos! Especially no shirt and chest tattoos 😍😍😍
“what radicalized you” bro EMPATHY
"what radicalized you" well in kindergarten they told me to share things and be nice to people.
fuckkkkkk I cleared the time loop first try
I woke up in the morning and everything was different
it would explain so much about Gotham economics if it turned out the only employers who pay a livable minimum wage are 1) Wayne Enterprises duh, but mainly 2) all of Gotham's assorted villains.
sure henching comes with shitty working conditions, but the benefits package is crazy competitive. they have dental
Gotham's villains are so engrained because supervillainy is the only thing propping up the local economy. henching requires no work experience, provides on-the-job training, and has a diversity hiring program (you're willing to commit crimes in tacky matching uniforms? great you're in, here's your gun and clownsuit)
Batman is constantly throwing money trying to compete but the fact remains that henchpeople are Gotham's largest workforce and will be until minimum wage laws catch up to reality
even educated jobs in environmental science are probably getting laundered money from poison Ivy. and a lab equipment tech might notice three different jobs are tied to pamela Isley and also happened to receive grants from "unrelated" shady shell orgs and the next one is setting up a temperature controled penguin habitat for some eccentric obvious mobster.
half of Gotham's supervillains have doctorates of course they're also funding the sciences (for crime purposes but still)
we need a new supervillain who gets drawn into villainy specifically to make money for funding grants. they come up with a theme and wacky outfit and loony backstory but at the end of the work day they change back into their alter ego (tired scientist with bags under their eyes and a hotpocket stuck in their labcoat). they're actually very mild mannered irl—the villain persona comes from their background in Theatre Arts
And this is why Bruce Wayne keeps trying to fund scientific research. But he doesn’t have the means to fund everything. So yet again villainy ends up still being the largest source of academic funding in Gotham.
When you request funding, if it’s from Wayne enterprises you need to include a bit about how it’ll benefit society. But depending on the shadow org you’re getting it from, every professor knows you need to include stuff about how it might progress or benefit efforts to potentially cure incurable diseases, or progress our understanding of extreme emotions like fear, or protect the environment, etc. There is one company where you merely need to mention penguins at some point, so there’s an academic paper out there about the effects of poverty on the LGBTQ+ community that happens to use a fictional community of penguins as example all the time. Two different organizations only give grants if there are enough puns in the request. And there’s one that seems to only give grants to researchers who want to solve some difficult scientific quandary, some big mathematical or linguistic puzzle or paradox that no one has figured out yet.
Give yourself permission to create mediocre art, in whatever medium is yours, because sometimes things simply need to exist.
Sometimes the story matters more than perfect prose.
Sometimes the art will still move you even if it's not perfect.
Make it silly. Make it fun. Just MAKE it.
There will be future works you can critique if you want, but if you never start, how can you keep going?
Honestly therapists are an under tapped market of fan fiction and i should do a bagginshield fic where bilbo and thorin are both therapists who are renting out offices in the same building.
Thorins this rad ass art therapist that does clay and metal working and jewelry working
And bilbo is just a talk therapist. he crosses paths with Thorin when he makes his cuppa tea.
Bonus thorin makes him a mug!!
Thorins kiln is named Smaug 😈
And they just bond over being incredibly salty and job frustrations. Note writing. Letter writing. Late nights. Early morning. Low pay no pay lol.
I raise you to a non-au - AU (canon universe) where a modern therapist comes to Middle Earth and refuses to let the plot move on before they have counseled the shit out of EVERYONE
So me. Rofl.
My therapist ass rolling up like okay you all thought gandalf was bad Hahahahahhaha you havent met me and my dastardly ways.
Some things HAVE to happen of course!! Of course but other things arent needed!!
Bilbo doesnt pass out or get scared of the dwarrow because im already soothing him and being his hype man. Ive got him all confidenced up and ready to evict a dragon before Thorin gets the fucking key to erebor.
No no we can all leave in the morning.together. actually!!! It can be nice we can have breakfast!!
Oh no whats this bilbo and thorin actually talk about their feelings BEFORE goblin town?
Am i dastardly setting them up on things with balins help? Ofc i am.
Am i working on getting thorin to destress the fuck out. YES.
Its a fucking skill set that takes years to hone and the correct set of personality traits. And timing. Timing is so fucking important.
Kili- your adhd how you doing with that? Feeling good? Good! If not lets help you out with that!!
Fíli lets reduce the stress and process potential dragon sickness fear and heir dread.
Dori you need to destress too my guy i see you
Bilbo definite grief experiencer lets process some stuff and work on gaining confidence with kili and filis help
Nori!!! I see you you little shit!! Lets duel!!
Ori!! You see far too much and know too much. I know you feel it alllllllllll.
Bifur and i so much going on there with traumatic injuries and feeling isolated etc bros got a lot to say and my specialty and thesis were both in " therapy experiences of nonverbal clients" so *shrug*
Bofur SUNSHINE BOY TAKE A BREAK I GOT THIS!!
Dwalin got some mad survivors guilt and trauma we all know it.
Theres gonna be a nightly campfire check in on everyones highlight and low light of the day with an emotional check in but like "okay so if your emotion today was a type of weather what would it be."
Or "if your emotions were toast what kind of toast would they be?"
Keep the emotional connections going and the comradery high especially early on while Bilbo'sq just joined.
Honestly part of being a therapist is being trained to gain peoples trust and make them feel comfortable and safe.
You also dont solve peoples problems for them rather you engage them in problem solving and resource acquisition/ reflecting on their own natural strengths and resiliency. So a therapist would be very different than Balins function as a Counsel to the Durins.
But you also have to believe- as a person yourself in radically accepting others where they are at and believing in the best of them. So basically being a golden retriever (as i am) helps immensely. In fact my clients call me a golden retriever constantly.
You think i wont have the entire company in tip top fucking shape by the forest gate then man take my license.
Im a sheepdog and gandalfs the shepherd. I bark and chase em around and gandalf gives the directions.
Yknow that sheep dog thats super chill but then murdered nine coyotes??
Thats me.and my dwarves and my hobbit rofl.
Me when someone looks at any of the company crooked.
Younger folk are getting really good at spotting AI slop, to the consternation of marketing execs.
Found on Mastodon.
From what I remember of back when Millennials were outpacing Boomers at internet and tech stuff in general, this is going to cause a lot of issues for companies angling to use slop in marketing because the younger set are always going to be better at spotting it than the older, but the older are going to be the ones approving marketing campaigns and ads and etc. Meaning, the older people will not ever be able to tell what might actually convince the younger.
The good news is that if it persists and Gen Z and Gen Alpha continue to scoff at the generated stuff, then marketing departments aiming at them will just have to give up on using it because they won't be able to figure out how to fool their targets with it.
The bad news is that this won't apply to scams and campaigns aimed at older people, so once again we're going to have a situation where the kids will be the ones lunging across the coffee table to stop Mom from giving her financial info to that really obvious fake scam mom oh my god do NOT buy that it isn't even a real thing.
Anyway godspeed to the younger generations.
