Requests are OPEN I write for the fellowship but am possibly willing to do other ME characters :) I am currently reading the book so my writing is mostly based on the movies but will likely become more influenced by the book as I make my way through it
I write for the fellowship and occasionally other ME characters
I’m really just doing headcanon type posts for now because I find them easier to write and I’m new to this
I will try to get to every request but it may take a while. I don’t want to post anything that I feel is total shit on my part so I may not end up answering everything. I feel bad about that but also I’m just doing this for fun and don’t want to pressure myself into writing anything I won’t enjoy
Not sure if I’m comfortable writing NSFW so if you request something I’ll probably not get to it for awhile if at all
Anonymous asks are open but I encourage not using it because I like being able to ask for more specific details if need be and I like knowing you will get a notification when I respond. Not much better feelings that seeing your ask responded too without having to search for it :)
Also please ignore the fact that this masterlist is kinda ugly. It looks better depending on what device you use. I’ll work on it…maybe
Frodo, Sam, Pippin, Merry, Aragorn, Boromir, Arwen, Legolas
*reader is their S/O, gender-neutral
Content warning * under the cut: suggestive themes (especially in Merry's) but no smut
Frodo
Oh this sweet boy gets real cocky and confident (canon in the books)
The alcohol breaks his shy boy exterior, and he becomes a hurricane of belly laughs and unbridled affection
Comes running over to you during a party at Hobbiton, throwing himself into your arms and slamming his lips onto yours
You almost fall over from shock, tasting beer on his tongue
"Come now, dance with me love?!" he excitedly exclaimed while starting to drag you
You glance at the other hobbits at the table to help save you from your drunk boyfriend's antics, but Sam was holding back a laugh from Frodo's abrupt behaviour, urging you on to go with him
You giggled while he danced awkwardly while trying to keep balance on his feet, holding onto you for slight support
"Alright, Mr. master of Bag End, I think it's time we get you home before all of Hobbiton make more gossip from you," you say to him later while he lays his head on your shoulder, rubbing his head against your cheek
He hums and sits up while giving you a lazy smile, eyes still glossy
He lets you drag him home, feed him some water despite his drunken refusal, and help him lie down in bed
All done while you try to pry his hands off of you while he laughs and begs for some kisses from you
Samwise
He becomes super protective of you
Like more so than usual
Doesn't leave your side, gets stressed when you wander too far and doesn't like it when other people stare at you a little too long.
You start to wonder if his drinking is bad for his stress levels, considering how attached to your side he seems to get
"Babe, I'm okay! I'm just grabbing some food for us from the share table." "Okay... don't be gone too long, please."
It gets worse in taverns, especially where there are a lot of larger men and elves and not so many hobbits.
He will keep a good hold of your hand when walking through the busy room, keeping you close to him.
"Honey, I think you've had enough to drink. You tried following me to the bathroom!"
Very much prefers to have some drinks at home with you, so he doesn't get all stressed.
He becomes a broken dam of stories, facts and always ends the night by pulling out his many maps and books of Middle-earth to show and teach you.
You drag him to bed when his eyes start drooping and his words slur even further than before
He happily obliges and tucks his face into your chest in bed, passing out immediately
Pippin
An absolute menace
You hearing something crash and burn in the distance? It's drunk pippin
Kind of feels like babysitting when he's had a little too much
"Babe, I can't let Merry win! I gotta beat his 12-second score!"
"Peregrine, please get off the barrel before you break a foot."
He and Merry are ruthless on the drinks. Just blink, and suddenly they've drunk a whole barrel between them
Also gets real cheeky with you with no shame
Like pinching your ass when walking past, earning a light smack on the head from you
Or when you're sitting at bar stools and he's seeing how high on your thigh he can creep his hand before you give him a look
Take him home, and he turns into a baby
Head on your lap and demanding you run your fingers through his curls
You swear you hear him purring when you do it
"Pippin, honey, I just want to read my book." "How can you be reading when you have ME in front of you?"
Eventually quietens and passes out in your lap with his arms wrapped tightly around your middle
Merry
Try and escape his advances, it's literally impossible
Becomes so unbelievably horny for you
Like an actual animal
By the time he's had like five drinks, he's DRAGGING you home
"Merry, you can't leave early just because you want sex." "WHAT? How dare you assume I'm leaving just for that! I'm actually very tired, excuse you."
Yeah... that story changes when you get home
As soon as the round door shuts, he has you pushed against it, lips against yours and quick hands going under your shirt
You indulge for a little, you'd be lying if you didn't enjoy this side of him, even a little bit
"Honey, you're very sweet, but you're very drunk and need some rest." "Ughhh but you're so prettyyyy~"
Still tries his luck while you're getting ready for bed, like grabbing you and pulling you against him while you're halfway through getting changed
Or his kisses on your neck turning into flirty bites until you push him off
Gets into bed all whiny but falls asleep quickly
You make it up to him in the morning~
Aragorn
He doesn't get drunk often
But you can tell when he is because he suddenly will act so vulnerable around you
A big telling sign is if you're talking to someone, he'll come up behind you and wrap his arms around your waist and rest his forehead on your shoulder
Once the person is gone, you turn to him
"Starting to feel it a bit huh love?"
He nods with a slight groan
He follows you to get some water for himself
Likes it better when it's just you and him, cause then he lets himself loose and gets looked after by you
Likes to smoke his pipe after drinking
If you're staying in an inn, his drunken self INSISTS that he stay up and keep watch
You have to reassure him that he's safe and there's no need
He takes some convincing, maybe even dragging him out of the chair, but he does eventually agree and lets you pull him into the sheets
You help him get his ranger garments off while he enjoys it a little too much, he tries to unbutton your shirt and pants, and you lightly slap his hands away each time
Falls asleep with you tucked against his chest and his chin on your head
Boromir
He gets quite emotional
At first, with all his friends, he is very loud and social, the more he drinks
Super confident, the life of the party and the commander of Gondor's Army
But behind closed doors with you is where his flaws appear
He tries to remain his strong, stoic, proud sel,f but gets a little teary when you rub up and down his rough and scarred back while you're both in the bath together after the big night out
You kiss his tears away, already knowing the drill from other times he's drunk a lot
"You make everything so much quieter and simple." he mumbles against your neck, where you've pushed him
"It's okay baby, you can cry."
He sometimes brings up his father's treatment of Faramir, or his stresses around commanding the Gondor's Army, or the weight of being the steward of Gondor on his shoulders
All you can do is hold him as he rants and cries, giving sweet, loving kisses all over his beautiful face and tracing scars that litter his skin
holy fuck i love this man
Arwen
(AN: I know it's basically impossible for elves to get drunk but lets pretend for this imagines' sake)
Arwen loses her natural shyness and elegance and becomes much more outspoken, confident and sure in herself
She is not afraid to say what she is thinking in the moment, becoming super blunt
This always puts you on edge because you think she's going to say something out of pocket to the wrong person
"Arwen meleth-nin, I think it's time to head back to our room. I think you upset the last man a bit with your harsh rejection."
"Perhaps he ought to have reconsidered his boldness, especially with you so close."
She becomes all soft and cuddly with you when you're by yourself
She sways with you for a little in the moonlight, wanting to make use of the time you have together
Although she can get touchy after a minute, wanting a reaction out of you
You pick her up and lay her down in bed, earning a laugh from her
She slowly slips into a slumber while you brush your fingers through her flawless hair, humming a sweet tune of an old elven song she taught you
Legolas
(AN: this is more book legolas than movie legolas)
It's like his entire spirit comes alive
You'll find him swinging on branches upside down, singing loud elven songs into the night and diving into streams
Can hardly keep up with his drunken shenanigans
Also finds everything hilarious, like say anything to him and he doesn't stop laughing for five minutes
When with other people, he tries to get you two alone
Whether bringing you back to a quieter room in the back of the tavern or taking you outside
He likes to have his alone chats with you when he's a little tipsy
Always checking if you're okay
Once he's checked on you like four separate times in one hour, you realise he's had a little too much
You take him home despite his protests
By the time you've made it home (with many side adventures of him hearing a bird and wanting to look at it or swearing that the trees are trying to fight him), he is exhausted
He crashes into bed next to you, tangling his legs with yours and wrapping himself around you
guys do you get it when i say aragorn is the definition of the words "gentle", "love", and "beauty". not in the conventional way, but i think aragorns existence itself defines those words. the ranger in him grins, as free as the winds and you see that chaos in him and yet you also feel his quiet strength that makes him uniquely aragorn. the whimsy of the elves as estel grew up to be the man now known as aragorn. gentle as he sings to the trees, sings to his horse.... his calloused hands cradling everything with such tenderness someone might wonder how he does that when it's been hardened by years of fighting with a sword and shouldering burdens.... aragorns love at the same time is something beyond either romantic or platonic, its the type of love that you just give out to the world. love built on courage, and kindness, and faith, and hope, as what his name estel means.... and to be able to love like that..... i think is what you call a being who embodies beauty.....
Hello! Love reading your headcanons! They bring me so much joy and I get so excited when you post!! I had a small headcanon, reader or y/n idk is lactose intolerant and the others don’t know until one day she ate cheese or something as she was sick for hours, I’d like to think her and boromir have running jokes because of the time he ate poison berries and was mad sick, idk just a fun little thought!
This is hilarious and a bit weird. I love it. Idk if I’m lactose intolerant but I definitely have ibs so kinda similar ish? I’m sure you all wanted to know that; you’re welcome
Lactose intolerance
Aragorn:
-Not sympathetic
-Probably has some herb remedy that he throws at you
-I feel like he has a lactose intolerance that comes and goes
-Like I can usually eat ice cream but occasionally it fights back
-And I bet he is the same; it’s a gamble
Legolas:
-Very confused
-He understands the berries being a problem; but he knows milk isn’t poisonous
-If he hears you exploding behind a tree he will be scared
-But also won’t ask about it
-Doesn’t think he wants to know
Gimli:
-Definitely thinks it’s hilarious
-I mean. Farts are funny
-He might even be jealous
-Biological warfare? Burps v farts
Boromir:
-Sensitive tummy boy here relates
-Does not fall into the classic “It’s worth it”
-He will totally cover for you if you are in the bathroom for like 30min and someone asks
-Will defend your honor if someone makes a joke
-It’s not funny. No he’s not projecting
-Always has lactaid pills and tums on hand
Frodo:
-He doesn’t sympathize
-He can eat anything and be fine
-But he definitely warns you not to eat certain things
-Do you listen? Probably not
-“I told you so!” while he helps you find a bathroom when you are about to dye your pants brown or die of cramps
Sam:
-I could see him also being lactose intolerant but he doesn’t admit it
-He refuses to believe he has a problem
-But he would be very sympathetic towards you and would try and keep you from eating dairy
-But he will keep eating cheese
Merry:
-Possibly encourages you?
-But only in an attempt to “desensitize you” to dairy
-I don’t think this works
-Also will give you a lactaid pill
Pippin:
-May also be lactose intolerant
-Does that stop him?
-Obviously not
-Get you two those buddy bathrooms; you can hold hands
-Friends that poop together stay together
Gandalf:
-Does not give a single shit that all you can give is shit
I want to know what everyone’s favorite personal post is. It can be anything; just something you are proud of. It could be that you put blood sweat and tears into it or just a shit-post that makes you think “damn, I’m funny as hell”
I think favorite may be this one
It’s not my best work but it was so fun to write and I think I’m funny
Hi, i love your headcanons so much, i literally binge read all of them. Can you do how the Fellowship would react/treat reader who is menstruating? the lack of period comfort fics with the Fellowship is criminal. if you're not comfortable with that, then maybe just a reader who is going through mood swings? if not, totally understand. hope you're having a great day/night!
My friend. My fellow menstrual sufferer. I shall feed you don’t worry (thank you so much, you’re too sweet)
The Fellowship x menstruation
Aragorn:
-Probably the most relaxed about it
-Like. He’s a healer, you will receive some random tea that supposedly helps
-If you get cramps this is they guy you want to be around
-He’s got a fix for you
-Probably tells you about how “it’s all natural. It means your body is healthy and can create life” which frankly isn’t helpful
-Kinda ignores mood swings
-Possible snorts a laugh to himself but means no harm
-He can’t help it; you crying over random things is good entertainment
-Also; totally off topic but I just totally think he has probably helped deliver a baby before
Legolas:
-Ok so, on one hand elves are so old that they basically know about everything
-But
-I chose to believe they don’t really menstruate; or at least nowhere near as often as humans
-And Legolas is a sheltered boy with no mother or sisters
-I think it’s fun to think he doesn’t really know what is happening
-Possibly thinks you’re dying
-Mood swings? Cue concerned and confused puppy face
-Cramps? Sends you to Aragorn
-Crying over nothing? Probably gives you water or something he doesn’t know
-He’s trying
-But he may also know some elvish medicine that could help
-If he thinks to use it is the real question
Gimli:
-A girls girl in the form of a fuzzy short man
-I love Gimli so much
-Immediately to the rescue should you bleed through your trousers
-Very protective of your mood swings; you can’t help it and your going through a lot
-I think dwarves in general really embrace just, life
-And by this I mean they don’t have much need for modesty, a body is a body, it does body things
-So there is no stigma with him
Boromir:
-He’s a smart guy; he’s not totally naive
-Knows what it is. That’s about it
-Probably doesn’t have much experience with someone, you know, actively bleeding from the sacred hole
-He will probably avoid you tbh
-Snap at him once and he’s like “nope. I’m not gonna make this worse”
-Probably grumbles about it but if anyone else says anything…
Frodo:
-Knows what it is
-Doesn’t give a shit
-Like
-If you are in pain or upset obviously he will support you
-But otherwise he doesn’t acknowledge it
-If you want it acknowledged he will but if you don’t he won’t ya know?
Sam:
-Ok, so
-I know not everyone agrees with my characterization of Sam but I stand by him being pretty unaware of anything outside his circle
-He knows what periods are yes
-And he’s definitely not grossed out
-But of all the members he would be the most likely to make a “bet she’s on her period” comment
-He doesn’t mean it to be rude, it’s an observation with no filter
-Like; it just doesn’t occur to him all the time that people aren’t necessarily going to know what he means and that he may sound rude
-Very apologetic tho. He’s the sweetest little dude
-Always helpful and wants you to rest
-Makes lots of tea and wraps you in a blanket with a hot water bottle mixed in there somewhere
Merry:
-I could imagine Merry being confused and kinda taken aback if you snap at him
-But then if you tell him why he’s just like “OHH well why didn’t you just say that?”
-And then totally listens to any emotional rant with uttermost interest
-Probably does the thing where a guy will mimic your behavior. Like. “It’s uterUS” but literally
-If you are emotional he probably will be too
Pippin:
-Don’t let him have a tampon
-He may eat it; may just put it in his mouth to soak up drool until his mouth is a desert
-Will bring you the most random things to use as a pad/tampon
-He may be partly joking but he also is kinda genuine about it
-Possibly thought you could hold it and just pee it out
Gandalf:
-Bet he knows some sort of magic to help with pain
-If he doesn’t than what’s even the point of him having magic
-Good to rant to
———————————————————————
I’m definitely out of habit of writing so this isn’t my best
I don't think people who say Merry and Pippin just stumbled along to Frodo's journey because "they dumb" really get how similar it is to the books in terms of devotion and friendship.
Sure, in the books they're like:
"Yeah, we knew. For a long time. We have been preparing. There's a whole conspiracy and shit. We are coming with you. End of discussion."
But in the movie?
Yeah, sure. It's by an accident. At first. The second things move forward and danger presents itself, they barely ask any questions. They just trust him and go with him without any preparations. Without any hesitations. They just grab their shit and go
If you could live anywhere in Middle Earth and property disputes/land ownership was a nonissue, where would you buy a house?
(You can publish this off anon I’m not a coward /lh)
Dude what a fun question! I could just answer this but…Let’s delve into this because I’m feeling extra. I’m gonna go through the main places
Starting with immediate no’s:
Mordor
-Pretty self explanatory
-I don’t love hot climates for one
-Plus it being so dry there I would constantly get nose bleeds
-Also I’m not sure if I could get insurance to cover possible property damage from volcanos
-And the neighborhood’s residents aren’t particularly nice either
Moria:
-Now in it’s prime I’m sure Moria was incredible
-However
-I’ve already got depression; being underground won’t help that
-And I think I’m too clumsy and blind to navigate the area
-And how loud it must be there; like going to the mall around Christmas
Mirkwood
-So I love a good forest; but I don’t vibe with the infestation
-That majorly lowers properly value; so even if I got a place without spiders; I run the risk of of them coming to me and my resale value would plummet
-Now that isn’t to say you can’t live a nice life there. I could vibe with Radagast and his life style
-Maybe it’s a little eccentric but we could bond over a love of animals
Lothlorien
-Now you may be thinking; this place is incredible
-And you’re not wrong
-But it’s almost too nice; I’m not cool enough to keep up with the locals
-And although Galadriel is a girl boss, she kinda gives me the heebie-jeebies
-I’d rather not be worried about my mind being read when I’m just trying to mind my own business
-Maybe get a vacation there occasionally
Maybes:
Minas Tirith
-Now there is no denying the beauty of this city
-But it’s too close to Mordor and a bit too tightly packed
-I like to have some land of my own. You don’t get a backyard here
-It also just seems like a lot of climbing to get around plus altitude and I’ve got asthma
Fangorn Forest
-This place gets a bad rep but look how comfortable Merry and Pippin slept on that cozy moss
-Could I be killed by the trees? Yes. But could I also make friends? Absolutely
-It’s secluded so you can live your Disney princess dreams in peace with nature
-And since no one else wants to go there; you can get people to believe you are a witch or something
-Build up a resume of being mysterious and possibly crazy
Edoras:
-Gimli did a good job explaining why this isn’t the ideal place to be; even if it was due to worm boy
-The area is a little bleak; literally no trees and I like trees
-Now I love horses so that’s something
-And also the people living there seem chill so that’s why this isn’t completely off the table
Definitely would live here:
Rivendell
-No denying this is one of the most beautiful places to live in Middle Earth
-But one thing turning me off from it is how loud it would be
-Waterfalls are fucking loud; and they have many there
-But I would love to frolic around the winding pathways and beautiful greenery
-I think I would be very happy here
Isengard
-Pippin was on to something about this being a quality establishment
-Kick out the current resident and keep the trees; what a wonderful place to live
-Maybe a bit too secluded but it’s not too far from the Rohirrim for an occasional visit
-And similar to Fangorn you could build a reputation
-I’d waltz around this tower in a big fluffy robe
-Plus this place is enclosed in a wall; you could have your pets roaming free in safety
✨The Shire✨
-If we are honest this is obviously the ideal place to live
-Friendly neighbors
-Lively but also quiet
-Enough drama to keep me interested but not enough to be a real problem that brings down the mood
-I feel like it’s of no surprise that this would be my answer; easy peasy
-What I wouldn’t give to live the life of a hobbit
———————————————————————
I would love to hear if anyone has any other ideas and what your answers to this question are. Are there other places I should add to this list that I forgot?
I don’t know if you’ve already done a request like this before but I was wondering if you could write for Legolas and Elrond with a reader who is a dragon shifter. The reader is super affectionate and kind of like a cat, hugging them randomly and rubbing their face against them but also fiercely protective of them. The reader can be a little chaotic at times since they’re a rather young shifter (in dragon years they’re basically a teenager). How would they react upon first meeting them and getting to know the reader?
I’ve been resurrected guys. Wasn’t feeling motivated but was going through my inbox and old posts and decided, eh what the hell. Let’s do this one! Probably won’t be great but I feel like putting something out.
Legolas & Elrond x dragonshifter!reader
Legolas:
-He is absolutely fascinated
-We should remember he is also young (by elf standards that is)
-So he matches any rambunctiousness with equal strength
-First meeting he would be super respectful and maybe a little shy
-But once he sees you’re chill he’s all in
-He immediately is coming up with ideas for tricks you two can do
-Will try and “surf” on your back as you fly and shoot his bow
-Despite his impeccable balance; initially this ends with a lot of Legolas getting humbled
-Ok…maybe sometimes you purposely try to throw him off…just maybe
-In terms of being affectionate while in dragon form he loves it
-Likes to pretend you are his pet when you guys go out to mess with people
-Will pull stunts to make it look like he’s “tamed a beast”
-Push him over with the snoot
-He deserves it; and secretly loves it
-Elves may not be the most physically affectionate but I think Legolas would be an exception
-As someone who has met cows; hugging the big heads is so nice. So imagine that even bigger! Incredible
-Will sit kinda wrapped in your tail while reading or snoozing
-Finds you being protective absolutely hilarious but also annoying
-Depending on the situation it’s either “Yeah you better run!” or “dude. I had that handled”
Elrond:
-So I stick with the idea that this guy is like “ok” to literally anything at this point
-Like I’m sorry but he’s just seen too much to really give a shit
-This doesn’t mean he doesn’t think you are incredible
-Yet another child for him to adopt; hopefully this one doesn’t date one of his other kids…
-Anyway
-I think he would try and keep your gift a secret
-He would urge you NOT to go flaunting your scaly side
-He wants to keep you safe
-That being said; he knows you don’t listen; and at this point he’s too tired to bother really trying to stop you
-“no shifting in the house” vibes
-He finds any nuzzling endearing but in moderation; like “ok. That’s enough. Stop. Y/n. I said quit…”
-Allows you to protect him when he knows it’s not truly a danger to you
-Like doesn’t want you in a war but if someone is bothering him he will absolutely use you as an advantage
-“careful. They haven’t eaten yet today”
-Does not wish to fly
-Maybe did it once. Not a fan if not necessary
-Will watch you do tricks and stuff kinda like how parents do when their kid has “something to show them” but they literally do the lamest things
