hello, average tumblr user. your challenge is to name a canonically lesbian female character in the tags of this post. if you name a male character for any reason, you will be shot in the head. good luck.

POV: you just woke up Lord of Himring Maedhros Fëanorian from his afternoon nap and he’s pissed off at you because he had to put on his dressing gown and his ‘I just woke from a nap, you asshole’ bling to come greet you. You’re dead meat. WYD?

me personally? i would strip, bend over, and hand him this. anyway, latest commission, featuring maedhros, a delight to draw as always!

You will never understand the mental torture of being 12 years old and having a debilitating crush on Hugo Weaving Elrond & having to lie to ur friends and say you like Legolas Orlando bloom like all the other girls so you don’t get fucking bullied

[mid-evil-werewolf]

Now I’m 35 and I have a live sized cardboard Elrond who lives on my stairwell & I kiss him every time I go upstairs so anyway the moral of the story is never kill yourself

[mid-evil-werewolf]

No hate on you because you’re braver than any US marine for that but I think we might have been having wildly different experiences

"Doomed yuri" this, "doomed yaoi" that

WHAT ABOUT DOOMED SIBLINGS

What if we were two sides of the same coin. What if i lived in your shadow all my life but found comfort in the darkness and dont know what to do once youre gone. What if youre the only person who understands. What if you have have no idea what i went through. What if we went through the same traumas but ended up with oposite conclusions about our suffering. What if i dont recognize you anymore. What if i see the ghost of my former self reflected through your eyes. What if it never had to go this way. What if this was the only way things were ever going to go

honestly one of my favorite things about fanfic is when you can see the canon influences come out in really subtle ways. like a canon line thats mentioned once as a throwaway is suddenly the entire premise for a fic or it influences the characterization or something. its just so cool to see how people weave their ideas around a source material, especially if its not a detail i'd thought about before

The Nazgul

Murder hundreds of people on the battlefields

Strike terror into the hearts of men

Sauron’s chief servants of evil

Can’t find the hobbit they’re looking for

Fall for the old pillow-under-the-sheets trick

thing is i would also defend and love the non-existent elwing who kept the silmaril entirely out of hatred and spite. so.
