At that hour, the library was almost empty: only a few scattered students remained, silently bent over their screens or their books, and the soft hum of the neon lights gradually replaced the noise of the day. Legolas, however, had not moved for hours: sitting straight, perfectly focused, surrounded by neatly organized piles of books, he turned the pages with impeccable regularity, taking notes, underlining, going back without ever losing track. Aragorn, across from him, was done. He had tried to work too, really, for at least… ten minutes. He had ended up giving up any motivation, his gaze drifting far more often toward Legolas than toward his own notes.
“You’re supposed to be working,” Legolas murmured without looking up.
Aragorn gave a small smile.
“I am working.”
“Watching me does not count as working.”
“That depends on the objective.”
Legolas finally looked up, just enough to give him a look that was meant to be disapproving but wasn’t really. Without a word, he left his chair. Aragorn barely lifted his eyes, following the movement more out of habit than curiosity.
“Where are you going?”
“To get a book.”
Legolas walked off between the shelves, disappearing almost immediately behind the tall rows. Aragorn stayed seated a second longer before closing his notebook without even pretending he was finished. He stood up in turn.
The aisles were narrow, lined with books up to the ceiling, the air thick with that paper scent Legolas liked so much. He was already there, slightly leaning forward, scanning the spines with precision, his fingers pausing now and then, barely hesitating before moving on. Aragorn stopped behind him.
“You’re taking this very seriously.”
Legolas did not startle.
“Unlike you.”
Aragorn stepped closer.
“You could take a break.”
“No.”
Aragorn smiled faintly. His hand found the edge of the shelf, right beside Legolas, reducing the space between them even more.
“Come on… just a minute.”
Legolas turned his head slightly, about to answer and Aragorn kissed him. He stayed still for a fraction of a second, just long enough to understand, before kissing him back. His hand, still resting against the books, slid slightly, finding Aragorn’s hair, brushing through it. The kiss lingered, discreet, restrained, unwilling to draw attention within those overly quiet walls. The silence around them made every movement more present, more dangerous too. Every breath felt closer, every second just a little too short.
A voice suddenly echoed through the nearly empty room, announcing the library’s imminent closing. They pulled apart before the librarian could see them. Their gazes met, but neither of them spoke.
They left the library side by side, their footsteps echoing softly through the empty corridors, their bags settled on their shoulders. Outside, the air was cooler, night already set in. Aragorn reached for Legolas’s hand, and Legolas laced his fingers with his in a gentle, affectionate gesture.
They walked on like that, hand in hand, moving away from the building toward Aragorn’s room.
omg is it just me or did orli delete the instagram post with him and viggo that has an annotated "LOVE" on it? :0
Not completely sure if that post was ever on instagram, actually... Maybe it was, but he must have deleted it a long time ago, because since I came back to Viggorli last year, it's only been on facebook.
And it's still there!
However, on instagram, you can still find Orlando's super-love confession to Viggo from 2018. So it kind of evens out.
unused footage from paths of the dead: three hunters find a skeleton holding a torch, aragorn uses a flint to strike a flame and works strider ranger magic to light up the torch
and that's how aragorn gets a torch in the cave
i love unused footage and behind the scenes lore as much as i love the extended cuts
unused footage of legolas in fangorn forest after ring is destroyed
orli looks so divineee and that embroidered silver tunic
leggy's hair is unbraided!! did aragorn unravel braids in his nightly rampage of leggy
PJ please give us a mithril cut, just chunk all the unused 1,300 hour footage together, you don't even need to edit it, add music whatsoever I'll watch it in 2000s 480p resolution
i absolutely adore how much fun orlando bloom is having in lotr movies. he's 22 years old. he landed one of the major sexy roles in the movie. he has a crush on his hot older scene partner (viggo). he's giggling like a school girl but he also films badass scenes, and they gave him a fairytale horse and he gives him kisses. he has a pretty wig.
aragorn saying "then i shall die as one of them" to legolas hours after legolas just found out that aragorn hadnt died is top tier angst. Thank you peter jackson.
I think after Aragorn and Legolas became lovers, Aragorn would always braid Legolas’s hair. Elven hair is different from the coarse texture of human hair. Legolas’ hair is soft to the touch, long and flowing, and seems to glow with its own light. Aragorn loved to stroke Legolas's hair and every part of Legolas's body.
Every time Aragorn braided Legolas's hair, he could smell the fragrance emanating from Legolas. He loved braiding Legolas's hair, and after each session, he would lean close to Legolas and inhale his scent—a sweet fragrance, like forests, leaves, sunshine, flowers, and fresh water.
