Six months ago, Hugo Wolfindale had a steady income, his grade in medicine, and a fiancée. Then his father went and ruined the family estate and, on top of that, threw himself in the river. Leaving his family penniless and Hugo friendless, fiancée-less and futureless. Then one day in Bath, he meets a young girl desperate to escape from her uncle; and then meets said uncle, who does not nearly seem such an ogre as Effie has described. In fact, Mr Bearville is rather handsome. And when he invites to Hugo to come to Dartmoor with him, Hugo agrees; after all, it is not as if he has anything better to do. He makes himself no illusions, however: someone as charming as Mr Bearville could never see something in someone as plain and solid as Hugo. It turns out that Thaddeus might think otherwise. But just as Thaddeus has almost convinced Hugo of that fact, a ghost from Thaddeus' past returns - as just one of many other problems, such as the fact that Effie is waging war against her guardian, Thaddeus is waging war against his aunt and Peacock the parrot is waging war with everyone who does not give him a peanut.

If they thought that living at Moor’s End would be quiet, they might have been very much mistaken...

I love him. He doesn’t know that and I don’t know if he loves me – in fact, I think he doesn’t. I don’t think he has let himself, and I don’t know if he ever will. He loves his wife, he tells me, and he doesn’t want to hurt her. I know he thinks he’s telling the truth.

A few years ago, Toby Thatcher joined The Darling set after his father took violent exception to him dressing as a man. Now, he is living happily with his new, self-made family in the countryside where he assists the local surgeon in his practice, studies natural history and human anatomy and waits for the opportunity to study at the University of Edinburgh Medical School. He is most definitely not looking for love (he is far too busy). But then the tall, dark and handsome Duke of Montague arrives and takes up residence at Upperfield Manor, just half a mile away from Briar Park. And Toby might be busy, but somehow, he still finds the time to talk to His Grace. To become friendly with him. To know him. Perhaps even to fall in love with him?

There are just several minor problems that arise from that fact, and Montague already having a partner is only the first of them…

God I fucking love being a monk at the Monastery of Lindisfarne on this fine morning of June 8th, 793. I love looking at all the gold and silver objects and alive monks that live here.

Things the Fellowship has argued about

What name to call Aragorn

What name to call Gandalf

What to call their meals. Boromir thinks, if it is eaten at dinnertime, regardless of whether it is the first meal of the day or not, then it is dinner. Sam thinks it isn't proper to call the first meal of the day dinner. Aragorn suggests they combine the two words but now everyone is fighting over whether it should be called breakfast-dinnner or dinner-breakfast. The fight nearly becomes physical

Whether Legolas or Gimli is winning their daily argument with eachother

If hobbits are regular sized and everyone else is really big, or if everyone else is regular sized and hobbits are small

The same as above except with horses and ponies

If Gimli's beard is real or not. This one started as a joke between Merry and Pippin but then Legolas saw how mad it made Gimli and so continues to bring it up

Inter-hobbit fighting about whether it is called pot-ae-toes, pot-ah-toes, or taters

"Can Legolas really talk to trees, or is he just fucking with us?" Aragorn and Gandalf refuse to weigh in on this

Whether the Ent-draught caused Merry and Pippin to grow or if they just did that on their own. This fight is Pippin vs. Everyone Else

Whether the non-hobbits of the Fellowship would be Tooks, Brandybucks, or Bagginses. This argument is unintelligible to most of them, although Gandalf has the knowledge to be offended when Pippin suggests he would be a Took.

"What would happen if someone ate the ring?"

Fights over whether the elves, the dwarves, or the hobbits tell the story of the reclaiming of Erebor most accurately. Even though Gandalf was there, he just shrugs when anyone asks him

Which variety of pipeweed is the best kind. Merry threatened Gimli to a duel over this one

Who gets next watch

[prokopetz]

Folks tend to talk about how Pippin addresses Denethor like they’re both equally ignorant of the political realities of the situation, but, like, Denethor probably knows exactly what the Shire’s political situation is? He’s looking at Pippin and in his head he’s like “okay, this provincial pipsqueak is being presumptuous as hell addressing me as a peer, but technically he’s within his right, and I can respect a power move” – and while Denethor is pondering how many levels of political power chess Pippin is playing here, Pippin is just *elevator music*.

Sometimes I just think about the fact that Finrod gave his ring to Barahir and then thousands of years later Galadriel saw that ring on Aragorn’s hand. The fact that Sting and Glamdring and Orcrist came from Gondolin. The fact that Narsil was forged by Telchar. The fact that Treebeard had been to Beleriand. The Fëanorian star on the gates of Khazad-dûm. Elrond telling the Fellowship that no oath was laid on them to finish their quest. Sam remembering the tale of Beren and Lúthien when he and Frodo were entering Mordor, and how it gave them hope. How the phial of Galadriel holds the light of a SILMARIL.

[lovely-v]

I remember reading such a good heartfelt and intellectual essay about how Frodo Baggins is basically a perfect protagonist and it was absolutely correct but the one part I vividly remember is that there was a section about how he was put down a lot when the movies came out because he showed weakness and by 2001 toxic masculinity terms that’s inherently homosexual and the essay went on to be like “if going forward despite your pain and struggle because you’re kind at heart is gay, gay people should be proud to have him” and like I know what the real point here was but when I read that I was like cheers I’ll drink to that bro we gay people ARE proud to have Frodo Baggins
