"as long as our journey continues, we can always meet again"

[sindar-princeling]

I know I've said it before but every rewatch I do cements this thought further - elijah wood's performance in LOTR is absolutely insane, they really had a character whose name means "wise by experience", hired an 18-year-old to do it, and he delivered so much that not only is it a beautiful and moving role on its own, it's a performance equal to those of the absolute powerhouses he played side by side with like ian holm and ian mckellen. to name just a few

[sindar-princeling]

apparently it's not common knowledge that he was 18 at the time (insert that xkcd comic, you know which) but. yeah

"let's task this teenager with the monster assignment of portraying trauma of war in a quiet and subtle way. what can go wrong" and then somehow nothing did. because he killed the role

[vaspider]

I mean. If we're talking about Tolkien's experience in WWI, that makes perfect sense. How old were all of those soldiers, on average? It's not just that he's portraying the trauma of war. He's portraying the trauma of young men who should not have had to carry the level of weight that was handed to them.

So, really, he's the perfect age, and idk if someone much older could have done it right, you know?

[captivesrp]

In the foggy highlands of a primeval land, ten children are captured and brought together for a mysterious purpose. Accomplishing their captors' goal will write them into legend, but they'll risk everything to achieve something even more important: escape.

Captives is a low fantasy novella for fans of Tamora Pierce, Brian Jacques, and Rick Riordan. It features swords, magic, riddles, and young protagonists up against immense odds in a richly imagined world loosely inspired by Iron Age Britain.
