I wish I could think of something to say to take what you are feeling away but I know nothing will suffice. There are no words to lessen the loss of a loved one. Please know that there are people who can listen and people who can talk. Surprisingly I can do both. If you should need either talent I am here. And while I do not know your individual pain, I do know what you are going thru. Do not forget to take care of yourself

[Thank you, dear. I haven't really taken it all in yet, I don't think? It's just. So shocking. So terrible. At this point I'm fairly speechless still. But all of us here are in the same place so I'm not alone in this by any means.

But thank you for the kind words and the understanding, always. *hugs*

☠:A popular fanon headcanon about my character that bugs me

[Can I say “all of them?” No? Well, okay, the biggest one is Caranthir-the-greedy, Caranthir who sits in Thargelion assessing taxes and hoarding wealth like some kind of elven Ebeneezer Scrooge. Yeah, the text indicates he served as a control point for trade between the dwarves and Noldor, but I don’t like the fanon implications as to why.

There’s a line in HoME which actually is more specific and talks about the wealth of iron and weaponry he acquired from the dwarves through trade, and that…that I like better. The Noldor have always been miners and craftsmen, and now they’re warriors. So they let the dwarves do the mining and the forging and they trade for the weapons they need in their war.

✔:What got me into roleplaying

[Oh, ye gods, who the hell even remembers? I’ve been RPing for over a decade! I’m not even sure anymore how I found it. A forum RP for a now-defunct webcomic was my first, though.
