"Thranduil is a dreamer, always has been and always will be. He looks at the world and sees what it could be, sees all its potential. If only he'd look at himself the same way."

Thran, new father: hey ferdan can you translate this for me?

thran: *holds out baby legolas at arms length in ferdans face*

legolas: *toddler garbles*

ferdan: -_-

Ferdan: He said that you snore too loud and youre ugly.

I have a new fic up!

For anyone who wants to check it out, here's the link:

Haunted - Greenwood_Elves - The Lord of the Rings - All Media Types [Archive of Our Own]

It is a lot darker than my other two, and there is some character death, but I promise it all works out in the end.

I think one of the best things about all of your works and your characters is that, individually:

Galion= 😠☠️👀🤨✂️🪚🕷🧪☣️

Thranduil= 😡🦂🔪🙅💥💣🤜☢️

Ferdan= 🤬😈🖕🚬🏴‍☠️❌️💀🛡🥱

BUT SOMEHOW, IF YOU ADD THEM ALL TOGETHER:

Thranduil + Galion + Ferdan = Legolas - 🤩🥰🥳💖👋🌱✨️🌞👍🫂😁💫🫶💞🌈🧸🎶🌿

and, best of all, IT SOMEHOW MAKES PERFECT FUCKING SENSE. idk how you do it, but its mesmerizing to watch

THE SNORT THAT I SNAT WHEN I READ THIS LITERALLY WOKE UP MY DOG fdasofd thank you for this work of art you have bestowed upon me. The emoji descriptions are just *chefs kiss*

(I doubt this was your intention, but the cigarette emoji in Ferdans description made me picture him as the Ben Affleck Smoking Pictures™. Which, I must say, also capture Ferdan pretty accurately.)

Did it took too long for ferdan to find his siblings when he went to find them in your latest fic?

The reason that Ferdan was sooooooooooooooo good with the Greenwood Orphans from the moment he met them was because they were actually the SECOND group of "His Elfings" that he helped to raise. His cousins and sibling's being the first.

So anything longer than, like, 3-4 hours (if he even made it that long) would have probably been considered 'too long' by Ferdan himself. However, objective observers unanimously concluded that he was able to find his family ALARMINGLY quickly. By the time he found them, the had only basically just heard the news that King Thranduil and his people had finally arrived on the shores.

The boy travelled at the speed of gossip

Others know that, logically, it was probably the tree's or even Lady Yavanna that helped Ferdan to find his family so quickly. But logic does absolutely nothing to dispel the newly acquired mental image of Ferdan running around Aman with his nose directly on the ground, sniffing them out like a damn bloodhound.

Ferdan never confirms nor denies any of the theories about how he found them so fast .

Its taken me like 3 years but I think I've finally found the perfect song to daydream about Ferdan to
