Call it...a gift 🎁
I'm back with a fresh batch of memes. It's a lot, but eeeh why not. Enjoy 😊
(yes, I meme'd Tolkien's hate for The Beatles 😆)
I can pinpoint the exact moment Elendil fell in love with Míriel--it was in 1x08 when she asked him "And who has you?" and he gazed at her completely stunned, like he couldn't remember when someone had last shown him and his well-being that much concern, probably not since his wife. (X)
There's such a clear demarcation. Before this their dynamic and sparse interactions were very professional, then they were only just beginning to exhibit personal care for each other (mostly brought about by Míriel's new blindness and Isildur's "death"). But beginning literally right after the "And who has you?", there's a level of emotional and physical intimacy opened between them, that Míriel instigates and Elendil (mostly) accepts. Her shoulder nuzzle?? The way they like, breathlessly disengaged when it got interrupted?? The way he looked at her when he saw her father's death flags in the harbor?? (X X)
Then into s2, his very intense protectiveness of her and advocacy for/singular devotion to his Queen is so clearly beyond doing his duty or being loyal to the true Númenor. He was not this emotional about her in s1 (except for the puppy dog eyes at the end). But after she deepened the meaning of "having" each other in the 1x08 scene, and he realized how much she saw and cared for him, I guess it was a wrap. Bc his whole emotional demeanor towards her switched up, ramped up, right then and there.

Things I manifest for TROP season 3
Numenor gets flooded as Queen Miriel predicted but what I REALLY want is for the worm, who has been used and mistreated for probably ages, she has spears in her tail, to swim INTO THE FLOODED CITY AND EAT PEOPLE. This is my dream. I need this. It can eat Kemen or Pharazon LOL do it. If it swam up and ate Kemen and that is what his mother predictted?
Celeborn is alive but held in an orc dungeon and needs to be rescued by Galadriel. Do it. Just do it. And no he won't compete with anything she may have with Sauron, Elrond or anyone else, he's just by her side no matter what and probably stays in Lindon to recover from his injuries and is someone she can find comfort in. That's it. I want him to still be boring and played by a blandly handsome slow speaking individual. Don't change perfection.
A flashback with Jack Lowden's baby Sauron/Mairon and Melkor or Morgoth played by someone talented, tall dark and pale. Would love this. Just more of this era in general. I loved that other scene so much. I NEED more of this whole gothic old medieval vibe that scene had, perhaps even earlier so we see Mairon change and embrace darkness.
More Numenor but I want the stuff from the books with Sauron manipulating Pharazon and I want Sauron or this version of Annatar done up in beautiful Numenorian garnments and gold jewerly and slightly bronzed skin because here, he is seducing Pharazon.
Galadriel, Elrond, Arondir and Gil-Galad try to rescue Numenor from Sauron, this is probably a big part of the season. I'd love to see Sauron take over and perhaps, you will see things to do with the ring wraiths, the Witch King, the mouth of Sauron, all men he twisted. Also this is where Gil-Galad and Elendil, who will one day try to take on Sauron together, possibly meet
I'd like cameos by King Oropher and young Thranduil like maybe Arondir connecting more with his wood elf side he could go on that kind of journey to go visit the Woodland Realm and maybe warn his people of Sauron that way
Elrond.. keep doing your thing. You are amazing.
Do y'all ever wonder if Elendil sometimes hallucinates Miriel, her image and her voice when he stands in the empty halls of Gondor? Do you think she haunts him every waking moment?...
I do.
