lmao i keep moving.

[laurefiindil]

glorfindel has been moved over to @exosemporium but i am keeping this blog up as an archive of sorts. if you need me at all, you can reach me over on the multi tagged in this post. 

[laurefiindil]

   random post:  how blonde is glorfindel’s hair? well. look at half of my hair.

   when depressed, dye & bleach your hair.

   friendly reminder that my personal blog is @helptheexo and i’m going to be far more active there than here for a bit, so if you wanna see my shitty writing or shitposting about, well, anything... here you go.

[laurefiindil]

   an explanation.

   hi, i’m still alive, i’m just suffering a lot with some stuff. my family is here, and as always, they know just the right things to say to throw me into a spiraling bout of depression. and when i’m depressed, i can’t really write fun characters like glorfindel. so, this blog is on a hiatus until they leave, which should be soon but who the fuck knows. 

   if you need me, i’m available on discord sinnabum#3026 or on my personal blog @helptheexo

   truly, i want to take a moment though and thank every single one of you who has stuck by me during this disappearance. you all are fantastic and i love you so much.

   family is still here, they’re leaving sunday but i’ve got to get this cosplay worked on. i’m still available via tumblr ims and discord, but i won’t be replying to any threads until monday night.

xoxo

They take him through the paths they walk like gods. Tulukilja leads their small party through the winding forest, deeper and deeper, until they reach a stream. Here she turns and unceremoniously undoes the scarf wrapped around her head to keep her hair out of her eyes.

“Turn around,” she tells Glorfindel, “I must put this onto your eyes.”

   even the great glorfindel has his limits, and when the scarf is unraveled, and one of the two turns to him, gentle blue eyes narrow in slight suspicion. he does not suspect them capable of playing a cruel prank, such as attempting harm, but these are not the safest of woods, and he is a lot better help with his eyesight, than without.

   “why?” he questions, not taking a step back, but tipping his head to regard her in the same fashion a curious child would. “why is that necessary?”

From The Lord of the Rings Appendix A: ‘The Tale of Aragorn and Arwen’ (abridged)

Elven scholars decided to romanticise the first meeting of these two famous lovers (as they did with everything). For poetic reasons they decided to also leave out the part where Aragorn ran to his room and cried to a week out of embarrasment for announcing his noble lineage to her in an attempt to recover from his pick-up line.

(Fun fact: this is how my parents met too)

iicalenglad:

He just knows there is something strange about this elf when he finds his head pat like he were an elfling - certainly, nobody has treated him such since he was but twenty! 

Brown eyes widen significantly at mentions of the Trees. He has been told the history, of course, but to- To see them? He blinks, crestfallen.

❛ I have a feeling I should be treating you with a bit more respect, ❜ he mutters, trying to gather his wits about him. It’s not quite easy. ❛ Indeed! The Trees. That must be why your hair is golden as the sun above. ❜

   there’s a twinkle in his eye when he looks at the young elf next, a smile that curls his lips teasingly, even as his namesake is mentioned. there are always different ways of elves reacting to his age, and the sights he has seen in his time, but this is genuinely one of his favorites.

   he does not care for formality, or for elves to fall over themselves with treating him different, but there is something about the way the air seems sucked out of them, the way they regard him with childishly wide eyes... it gives him a little glee in seeing it.

   with a tip of his golden head backwards, he laughs, not so much at the young princeling, but rather at his words, his comment about his hair. “i would not care for it if you treated me like they do in rivendell. the pageantry of it all does get quite tiresome. and... no that is not the reasoning for this, not quite.” he reaches up, fingers a golden curl with an amused look. “you have heard of the vanyar, i hope?”

His sympathy and warmth towards her situation and Númenor‘s predicament calmed the inner turmoil that raged inside her mind. It strengthened the diminishing hope held for the survival of her homeland, and she prayed that his vast knowledge and wisdom that he had acquired through his immortal life, could aid the kingdom in any way possible. She returned his smile with a small, but thankful one of her own.

             ❝ No, I do not wish for it; though history has often shown that bloodshed and violence brings change, I do not wish to travel down that path. I think to truly break the cycle, so that peace and goodness can flourish in a society once more, one needs to solve each problem in a way that avoids violence as much as possible; in a way that is most alike to the desired peace itself. ❞ She said as she shook her head slowly. ❝ Do you have any ideas on the preparations needed for this war? I fear that I am so blinded by worry that I cannot clear my mind so that ideas can thrive within. ❞

   she did not need to remind him of the history of bloodshed and violence, and the change it brought, but he does not remark on it. the history, his history is bloody and brutal, and although he has long since been healed of any grievances he might have had about it, he still remembered the hardships of war and the consequences of pride and oathmaking. it did not feel that long ago that his life had started tumbling out of the rhythm and path dictated for him by eru’s holy ones, and he still remembered the uncertainty it had caused him.

   “i have faced this kind of evil once before,” he admits quietly, gaze drifting back to the flower buds. “it would be wise to be of clear mind when facing him, he is not above trickery and deceit to bend you to his will while making you believe you are in the right. there is no turning him to your side, mairon wishes as his master once did: to enslave the free-people of this land, to destroy the creation of eru. there will be no reasoning with him, and there will be no way to deceive him.”
