Yeah so it turns out that horrifying warrior of darkness was actually just starved for kindness and now that I showed her a small act of mercy she sorta imprinted on me? yeah like a duckling. Anyway so now she won't stop following me around and trying to defend me with her life, keeps muttering something about a "life debt" even though I keep trying to tell her it's no big deal. And yeah basically that's why there's a menacing shadowy figure looming behind me at all times now #MyScaryFriend ^-^

what if... a little mouse guy and a giant scary cartoon rat fell in love...........

(we have a silly AU cooking in the discord where our lotro OCs are various rodents/critters. Margim makes for a really good scary rat tbh)

felt sad so here's some screenshots of Celeair at the Spring Fest :)

hi hello can i ask about Margim? i would like to know more about The Her she looks cool. i don't have any actual specific questions i am just very curious

ahhhh omg yes my girl!! thank you for asking about her, I hope you like incoherent ramblings because I just blacked out and woke up to the rest of this post in my screen.

So if you want like, basic information on her backstory and what her whole Deal is, I have this fic about it. It's not uhhh, finished exactly, but the beginning part does a pretty good job of establishing her I think :> (and I might as well share it again bc I really need to motivate myself to work on it again oops)

But the long short of it is that Margim is a very old OC of mine who I created in a haze sometime during my Edgy Teenage Phase™, but I am still extremely fond of her 😌

She's basically like "What if the scariest woman imaginable who had only known death and cruelty and isolation for her entire life was given one, just one little taste of genuine kindness and decided right then and there she was going to give her life to protect the source of it because she realized she had been starving her entire life and cannot let go now."

..........And then the bad guys kept somehow failing to kill her so both her and her new friend end up escaping from Mordor and now she has to like, deal with the fact that she's alive even though she was fully prepared to (and on some level wanted to) die. And now there's someone who actually cares about her and wants her to be ok? And is helping her heal and showing her all the soft and beautiful things she was never allowed to experience before?? What is this madness???? The world out there is so strange and blindingly bright and beautiful but alien and overwhelming and what is going on why do my eyes hurt????

(Anyway yeah how did you know I have an affinity for hurt/comfort? I hid it soooo well tho...)

Margim my babygirl 😌 She could tear my arms off easily, she has autism, her earliest memory is of killing someone, she's scared and lonely and literally Just Trying Her Best, she's the spitting image of a Black-Numenorean and everyone is afraid of her, she just saw a bunny for the first time in her life today, she once ripped out a man's throat with her teeth, she gets migraines from being out in the sun, she only has one (1) facial expression, her skin is littered with so many scars she doesn't remember where she got all of them, her favorite flowers are dandelions, she really, really needs a hug but doesn't know how to ask and is scared of people touching her. I'm obsessed with her.

(please accept this very old doodle of her)

ah ok so that one was meant to be a quick little thing I did for Midsummer... *checks notes* years ago lmao. I kept getting held up on it. Basically it follows Celeair, who has been living with Margim in Trum Dreng for the last few months, finally being able to return to Minas Tirith and see if his brother Halhir (an Ithilien Ranger you meet briefly in Osgiliath. in Meneldil's Square. yeah uh, he's not having a great time) survived the war. Midsummer is a fun time! A shame about all The Horrors. (oo wait actually that could work as a title lmao)

This all came about I think when Hallothere and I were talking about all the Ithilien Rangers you find in the houses of healing during Midsummer after having partied too hard. and one of us was like "hey one of those could be Halhir"

And here's a snippet for your trouble <3

hi sorry I'm still only thinking about them

(I saw this gifset a while back and and it was So Soft so I decided I was going to go insane crazy if I didn't draw Celeair and Margim referencing it)

[a-lonely-dunadan]
