thewanderingelf

A full moon shines brightly in the sky, casting it’s silver light upon the gardens around her. Her feet make almost no sound as she spots the elf in front of her and she moves with a grace that allows her gossamer skirts to glide over the grass quietly.

She smiles fondly as memories of greeting him as a child flit through her mind, a tangle of arms and legs as she would jump upon his back. She cannot help but approach him quietly and wrap her arms around his torso, smiling happily as she rests her head upon his back, for old habits die hard. “I missed you, Uncle.” Her words are spoken quietly in the peace of the night.

♉: is my muse prone to jealousy?

Yes, he is. He spent a few thousand years as the only child of Seraphi, but when Kalique and Titus were born, he was forced to share their mother's attentions. For someone who was an only child for that long made it difficult for him to adjust, and even now, he still finds it hard to accept that he has had to be content with 1/3 of his mother's attention, affection, and assets. While he does love his younger siblings in his own way, he has never fully forgiven them for making him share his mother with them.The same goes for Jupiter Jones; it doesn't take much to make him jealous. There is one thing that comforts him in this case; he knows she'd never make him jealous out of spite. And if she does, he probably deserves it. 

★: a wish my muse has

To have a family.The only problem with this wish (at least in his canon verse) is that he knows it will never happen. The main reason being that the only woman who he sees having a child with (he dislikes the idea of having more than one, knowing what it feels like to share a parent's affections) is the recurrence of his mother. And their relationship is far too complicated to have and nurture their family properly. Plus he doesn't want anyone to use his child against him.

Everything's alright

{ Arwen opened her eyes } after Legolas kissed her forehead.

Heart a dizzy whirl of too much. The deep, painful gratitude that he lived, and bore the grace of not even returning to all their people maimed for time throughout. Winded by the relief that he looked at her, even now, grace and the Light of Aman fled from her being for all her now-limited days, still the same. 

Voice and eye both still proclaiming her dear of ages.  

"You are sure?" It was only in this place, with him that she dared even acknowledged she doubted or feared, what she could not do more than be resolutely of unbrookable faith, before her father. 

That this was the right choice. That Aragorn had never meant his last words in Imladris to her, trying to return The Evenstar and her promise to her. That all of these last months, and her great sacrifice, were not for nothing.

I Now Pronounce You (to strengthen the bonds between the Elven kingdoms!!!!)

" { They can not } be serious about this."

It was Arwen's first and only introduction to the Prince of Mirkwood's personal chambers that she was there. The door already closed behind her and her shoulders against it, hair slightly blown wild from the exhaustively delicately style set into it only ten minutes back by far too many hands dragging on her nerves.

Except the problem was that everyone was. Everything was. 

She'd been transported in style with a vast retinue to place she had been allowed to visit for centuries with only a handful of guards or companions. Her clothes were the finest ever given to her, and she was breaking into her friends' room hours before they were supposed to 'first meet' today.

Talk about thewanderingelf

[ Ever since I discovered Lord of the Rings in high school, I've been fascinated with the relationship Legolas has with his father. I only got to read bits and pieces of Thranduil in The Hobbit, and even then the elvenprince wasn't present in the story. It only got me thinking about what they were like as a family, seeing as the elvenqueen died before they could actually enjoy their time as a family. Then I came to Tumblr and lo, there are a lot of amazing Legolas roleplayers who bring this character to life beautifully.

Kat's Legolas is a muse who helps me figure out where these two really stand. There are times when their relationship as father and son can be considered sweet and loving, but most of the time their conversations (especially with adult!Legolas) center on defiance, rebellion, and debate. And that, I think, is the crux of their bond. They love each other fiercely, would die for the other if need be, but are not afraid to speak up when they think the other is going astray. Or is being irrational and reckless, which is often. They are similar, which is why it's very easy for them to fall into an argument. 

I love how their Legolas is both sassy yet independent, who clearly has inherited his father's headstrong nature and (as I believe her to be) his mother's compassion. I can see that he is always trying to gain his father's approval, while on my end I can see that Thranduil believes that his son does not need his approval. He has always been proud of Legolas, but with that wall he has built around himself to protect him from feeling the emotions he refuses to acknowledge, he can't bring himself to tell his son that. And it is this complexity that makes me believe that, because of the relationship my muse has with thewanderingelf, Thranduil and Legolas have one of the strongest familial bonds. Which is, sadly, seemingly underestimated. ]

-- "Legolas?" He asked, sitting up in his bed, feeling a weight on the left side. Seeing the small figure in the dark... it could only be his grandson. Oropher shifted, lighting a candle to allow him to see his little leaf. "What is wrong?" He sounded concerned, and pulled the smaller elf into a hug.
