This other part is also extremely funny and also cute.

Bildad is worrying so much for them.

three houses of the edain ❂ house of hador ❂ headcanon disclaimer

          Gundor was the youngest child and second son of Hador Lórindol. Unlike his elder siblings, who both married into the House of Haleth, Gundor wed a woman of his father’s House: Angreneth, who despite her unyielding name was a gentle soul who actively avoided conflict. Angreneth bore Gundor only one child, Indor, before her husband was slain in the Dagor Bragollach alongside his father.          Angreneth was thus left alone to raise her son, and despite the tragic loss that might have broken others, Indor grew into a gentle and compassionate man. He kept a homely dwelling, welcoming any who sought shelter, including folk of the House of Bëor who fled to Dor-lómin after the destruction of their homes in Ladros. One such guest was Padrion, a man who quickly became attached to Indor, and time married him. Padrion bore Indor two children, Aerin and Peleg, each who endured a grim fate before they died too young. Peleg was only a young man before he was slain in the Fifth Battle, cut to pieces by the orcs.           Peleg’s sister Aerin was close to her kinsman Húrin Thalion, and closer to his wife Morwen Eledhwen, even taking her as a lover from time to time. When the Battle of Unnumbered Tears was lost and Dor-lómin overrun by Easterlings, Aerin suffered greatly, for Húrin was dead or captured and Morwen turned into a cold, proud woman with no time for anyone but her children, one of whom she quickly sent away to relative safety. Then Morwen, too, disappeared with her daughter Niënor, leaving Aerin without any friends to protect her when Brodda, an Easterling lord, forcibly took her to be his wife.           When Húrin’s son Túrin suddenly reappeared in Dor-lómin, instantly sparking conflict and slaying one of his own kinsmen, it was Aerin who informed him that his mother and sister had vanished. In his rage, he slew Brodda, and Aerin, not wishing to be further persecuted by her dead husband’s companions, burnt herself and many of them alive in Brodda’s hall.

On one hand it is hilarious in a cringe compilation way that no more than a minute after Peleg threatens to rip his leg off if he mentions the merchant service again, Ishmael goes and mentions the merchant service again, but on the other hand I’m not sure what Peleg expected when he asked Ishmael if he had really been to sea before given that Ishmael had JUST told him that he had been in the merchant service. A disaster of a conversation all around, really. One of the best chapters in the book.

Ishmael is actually a Disney princess.

Peleg: So, what makes thee want to go a-whaling, lad?

Ishmael gazes wistfully off into the distance, a sea breeze aesthetically ruffling his hair. Dramatic, triumphant music appears out of nowhere and begins to build.

Peleg: /confused and a little nervous, looks to Queequeg/ Uhhh...what’s he doing?

Queequeg: /unperturbed/ I believe he’s about to break into song.

Ishmael: /spreads his arms/ ♫ I WANT ADVENTURE IN THE GREAT WIIIIDE SOMEWHEEEERE ♫

Peleg: So you were a schoolteacher before this? Kiddo, you won't last a week out here.

Ishmael: Hey! Come on now! I was a sailor on merchant ships, too!

Peleg: Oh? I stand corrected. You won't last three days.
