Unsuspisius Human Jobs for Finwians

It’s 2020. Elves are long gone and forgotten from mortals’ memories. Yet, as immortals’ lives tend to be quite long, some of them like to take a vacation in humans territories, only for a decade or two. If the Valars do accept these vacations, there’s one condition everyone most follows: Mortals most not know about Immortals. Here is how some of the most famous Finwians choose to blend in mortals lands.

Galadriel: Astrologer and Psychic reader

Pros: can use her powers and make money out of it. Get to wear cool accessories and clothes. Get to scare people for fun. Doesn’t even have to try to fit the role.

Cons: There were some centuries where that was call witchcraft, and where fire was mostly use against it.

Finrod:  Beachguard and part time Waterslide tester

Pros: Get to spend a good amount of time in the sun, far away from Tirion’s Court. Getting to help people and keep in shape. Get to try exciting slides from time to time

Cons: None for him. Maybe the looks some teenagers give him, but, hey, young people being horny are perfectly normal.

Turgon: Landscape Archeologist

Pros: get to see the most interesting parts of the world and travel a lot. Get to be far from all Fëanorians. Can study in peace, for once in his life.

Cons: more often than not, he knows more details than his humans peers, and he sometimes needs to work on certain theories that he knows to be false

Fingon: Stuntman

Pros: has all the reasons to use all his physical skills, has a uge social media following for his stunts and his charisma. Humans think his pointy ears are some sort of weird plastic surgery he did after his fist big project, a movie called Lord of the Ring.

Cons: he can’t do that job for many consecutive decades, as human’s physical aptitudes decay as they aged.

Aredhel: Feminist Activist

Pros: can help other women buid a better world, know that she can do more there than she can in Tirion as a princess, can show that she can be stronger that any man

Cons: money can sometime be a problem, but she doesn’t care. She’ll find a way to make it work.

Maglor: Artist

Pros: artists exist in all ages and in all countries. He can be a french poet writing about modernity and beauty in Paris, but he can also be a popular irish songwritter singing about churches.

Cons: modern day technology make his vacations in the human world far in between, because his face is all over the medias for years at a time.

Celegorm: Dog whisperer

Pros: dogs all day every days.

Cons: absolutely none. he prefers dogs to most of his own brothers. 

Amrod and Amras: Professionnal mascots

Pros: absolutely anonymus. Whats’not to like from a job where you can annoy people, make children smiled and do stunt? Amras is well known for a popular bull with red fur.

Cons: after work they smell like Huan after one week on a hunt

Maedhros: Author and professor

Pros: he finally has the stability and tranquility of life he wanted. Academic life suits him well and he love sharing his studies with passionate students.

Cons: can be lonely at time, but it is not long before he needs to help one of his brothers or cousins .  he used to drink on such occasions, but he stopped since one of his colleagues names Tolkien took advantage of his inebriation to make him talk about his family.

Finwian opinions on Marmite

Feanor - has never even tried Marmite and refuses to do so. Indis made it fashionable so he hates it On Principle

Findis - likes Marmite a normal amount, just little bit smeared with butter on toasted bread or crackers.

Fingolfin - does not really like Marmite but never tells anyone and eats it if it’s served, 10% bc he’s polite and 90% bc he likes to make Feanor look bad

Lalwen - hates Marmite with a passion. Does not understand the appeal At All. Gives it another shot every few years and is traumatised all over again. Especially resents Feanor bc if he’s going to hate it at least he should share in her suffering.

Finarfin - loves Marmite. One of those heathens who mixes it with peanut butter. Also just eats it by the damn spoonful Even Indis is intimidated. He’s too powerful. Please make him stop.

I'm willing to bet that they had teen teen magazines in Valinor and that the Finwian grandchildren made the covers very often.
