“We…we don’t have to actually do this…” Jesper offered after a second or two of thoroughly uncomfortable silence.

Kaz snorted. “What, lost your nerve, Fahey?”

Jesper held his hands up placatingly. “Me, lose my nerve? Never. I could whip your scrawny ass in five seconds flat. It’s just…” his tone softened along with his eyes, and Kaz felt his guard go up again, defenses on high alert. Here it was.

“I just…I mean, I don’t want to pry, but…something’s clearly going on with you, Kaz. If you want to, I dunno, talk or- ooof!” The words flew from Jesper’s mouth as Kaz’s gloved fist connected with his side, sending him skidding across the icy courtyard.

Chapter 14 of Two for Joy is out!

i'm so obsessed with him 💀

that theory that the Arkenstone is a Silmaril…it’s doubly implausible, but imagine if nobody knew. If the dwarves were guarded enough of their greatest treasure that…you wouldn’t even need to hide it from that many people, honestly. Mostly a few elves, and all wizards.

and then Bilbo sidles up to Gandalf like, “Thorin and all are holed up in the Mountain, but I think they’re being nuts, so I…kind of stole the Arkenstone, I think.” And (it’s been thousands of years since the light of the trees was doused save for the precious brilliance locked away in Feanor’s gems, since oaths and blood and war that raged until the skies cracked and the earth shattered, and the little people of the Shire have no memory of it at all) he pulls out a fucking Silmaril.

Gandalf: *spittake*

Gandalf: *hurriedly glances at Thranduil. the king of Mirkwood’s eyes shine with curiosity and greed, but not recognition, nor the terrible lust that overtook Feanor and his sons. right, right, he was never in Thingol’s court while the jewel that Luthien and Beren took was there. we’re good. we’re good for now*

Gandalf: That’s, uh, nice, Bilbo. Put it away, would you?

Gandalf, telepathically(?): EMERGENCY RINGBEARERS ONLY CONFAB NOW

Gandalf: [mental image of a goddam Silmaril in hobbit hands, labelled “thisfuckingrockagain.jpg”]

Galadriel, who watched 95% of her family slaughter everyone within 100 miles for several thousand years over these things, including each other and themselves: no.

Elrond, who was very nearly one of those people slaughtered, and did watch most of his town be killed before he and his twin were kidnapped for a while: Absolutely Fucking Not.

Gandalf: Apparently fucking yes. The legendary Arkenstone-

Galadriel: You’ve got to be kidding me.

Elrond: Thorin Oakenshield has a Silmaril right now?

Gandalf: No, no.

Gandalf: Bilbo stole it.

Elrond: *wordless sputtering*

Gandalf: @Galadriel [information packet: BilboBagginsoftheShire.pdf]

Galadriel: Oh yes, Belladonna’s boy, you were telling me about him last winter.

Galadriel: Btw, orc+warg army probably coming your way. Spotted it in the mirror last night. Thank goodness we dealt with Dol Goldur at least, huh?

Elrond: No fucking shit.

Gandalf @Gwaihir Windlord: hey, sorry to bother you again, I know it’s nearly mating season. but we have a situation again

I mean, given that Tolkien retconned “The Hobbit” so Bilbo’s little invisibility ring became an ancient piece of jewelry that controls minds and drives the mighty mad, one can at least understand why it seems plausible that the other shiny white gem that destroys empires and makes the mighty go mad with greed could be linked from his kid’s book to his gigantic early mythology in retrospect??

crazy-pages

You know this actually explains a lot about why Gandalf didn’t immediately raise the alarm about Bilbo’s ring out of an abundance of caution. I mean, what are the odds, what are the fucking odds, that this one little hobbit stole both a Silmaril and the Ring of Power? Like, you are Gandalf the Grey and you have already dealt with the heart attack to end all heart attacks because this little innocent fool stole a world war inspiring artifact once. You still get flashbacks every time Bilbo offers to show you something and have to employ all of your angel’s serenity and thousands of years of learned composure not start giBbERinG “ pleaseletitnotbeanotherartifactpleaseletitnotbeanotherartifact”. And then. AND THEN! One day he’s like, “hey Gandalf let me show you this neat ring I found back on our journey”. And on the inside a tiny part of you is screaming “nottheoneringnottheoneringnottheonering” while a more rational part of your brain assures you it could not possibly be the one- “It’s this plain gold ring that’s very precious to me and turns me invisible!”

AND THEN YOU FUCK OFF AND SEARCH THROUGH EVERY POSSIBLE TOME YOU CAN TO PROVE IT CAN’T REALLY BE THE RING OF POWER, SAURON’S RING OF POWER, THAT RING, THE ONE RING, LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE TOME, BEFORE FINALLY FUCKING ACKNOWLEDGING THAT THIS SHIT IS REALLY HAPPENING AGAIN

@shewhodoesnotexist what says you? :P

shewhodoesnotexist

I’ve never been a proponent of this theory, but I gotta admit the idea of Bilbo finding two world war inspiring artifacts is alluring ;D

Next you’ll be telling me Sting is Gurthang

abrownpanther

Sting may or may not be Angrist, the knife that Beren used to get the Silmarill off of Morgoth’s crown

“Average Hobbit finds at least one world war inspiring artifact when on a journey” statistic inaccurate. The Spiders Took Family, who find a world war inspiring artifact every five feet they step outside the Shire, were outliers and should not have been counted.

Bilbo: I’m not a burglar I wouldn’t even know how to be!

Also Bilbo: *trips and grabs seven legendary artifacts on the way down*

#this is 1000% fact in my mind #the amount of ancient artifacts that Tolkien just. throws in randomly is crayyyy #plus I've always been crazy for simaril lore #sorry followers I've outed myself as the biggest Tolkien nerd ever #to be fair that was my first fandom so it gets all the deference it deserves #the silmarillion #the hobbit

Occtis + watching and learning

+ bonus

In a timeline where things went another way...

#the tragedy of occtis tachonis #death angel boi #still can't convince me that the stone of night song is completely done with him #occtis tachonis #critical role campaign #critical role campaign four #critical role fanart #cr4 #critical role spoilers

Okay but there's still SO MUCH we don't understand about the Deva Vindicta ritual and it's making me INSANE:

1. Why on EARTH did the Tachonis just LEAVE Occtis?! Like regardless of whether the ritual worked or not, whyyyyy you just leaving your superpowered killer angel just. At the scene of the crime? Was it going to be remote-control able or something? How were you going to ensure it attacked the Orrchard?

2. and to that point- if you knew immediately that it didn't work, why leave the stone of nightsong? Surely it wasn't disposable? You had to know Occtis had friends there. Primus didn't even bother staying to clean up- if this was so important, why not...try?!

3. Primus states that the massacre at the Palazzo is fine because "House Royce was going to be eliminated anyways." But bro didn't do that?? He didn't even bother going for Aranessa? Didn't even ensure that they were wiped out? He specifically had a convo with Julien who is clearly a revenge crazy bastard?!

4. What did Petra and Ryah think was supposed to happen? Why was the ritual rushed? Why on earth was Primus okay with it all going to shit?

5. Does it just. Not bother him that he has an undead son running around now?

So many questions. So many. If you have answers that I missed, please. All ears about this weirdass family and their dumb apocalyptic plans.

the worst part about grief is that it feels like the world should be horrendously earth shatteringly changed, and to an extent it IS but its also the same. to everyone else it's just another tuesday. the world moves on. you have to go grocery shopping.

He's a child of war and the bastard that no one saved. He's a soldier and a liar and a web of contradictions even he can't unweave. He's loyal to a fault and unflinching in a resolve that may doom them all.
