Being a girl is: When you realize that you were falling for a fictional character during his first appearance but suddenly found out that he already have a love interest/lover then you suddenly get mad for not researching about them immediately when you first saw them
The arrow flew before Legolas realized you had stepped into the clearing. One moment his bowstring was drawn, the next the shot had already been released. It struck your shoulder instead of the target. The sound you made made his heart stop. Legolas was beside you in an instant, bow forgotten in the grass as he caught you before you could fall. His hands hovered for a moment, almost afraid to touch the wound he had caused. “I did not see you,” he whispered, voice strained with guilt. Carefully he pressed cloth to the bleeding, his normally steady composure shaken. “I have faced countless enemies without hesitation, yet the thought that I might harm you…” He swallowed hard, gently brushing hair from your face. “Forgive me. I would sooner break this bow forever than see you hurt by it again.”
Haldir-
During training in the woods of Lothlórien, your blade clashed with Haldir’s. He moved swiftly to disarm you, but the maneuver twisted your wrist too sharply. The small cry that escaped you made him release you immediately. Silence fell between you as he stared at your hand, his calm expression tightening with regret. Haldir stepped closer, gently taking your wrist in both of his hands as though it were something fragile. “I used too much force,” he said quietly. His fingers brushed the swelling carefully, already reaching for herbs from his belt pouch. “You place your trust in me when we train… I should never forget that.” His voice softened further as he wrapped the cloth around your wrist. “I will be more mindful. Of you.”
Kili-
You had barely finished laughing at Kíli’s joke when his dagger spun playfully through his fingers. The hilt slipped and struck your arm with a dull thud. The laughter died instantly. Kíli stared at you in horror before dropping the blade entirely. “Durin’s beard—! Are you alright?” He rushed forward, grabbing your arm before you could even answer. His usual bright confidence was gone, replaced by frantic worry as he inspected the forming bruise. “I was only showing off,” he muttered angrily at himself. “Stupid trick…” For the rest of the afternoon he refused to leave your side, bringing water, food, anything he thought might help. Every few minutes he glanced at your arm again, guilt flickering across his face. “Next time,” he said softly, “remind me I’m not allowed to juggle weapons around you.”
Elrond-
The horse shifted suddenly beneath you as Elrond helped you mount in the courtyards of Rivendell. Your foot slipped and you struck your shoulder against the saddle. Before you could react, Elrond had already steadied you, strong hands guiding you safely back to the ground. Concern darkened his eyes as he examined your shoulder. “Forgive me,” he murmured, voice calm but clearly troubled. “I should have anticipated the horse’s movement.” Though the injury was minor, he insisted on treating it himself, his touch precise and gentle as he applied a healing salve. Even after the pain faded, he remained beside you longer than necessary, speaking softly and watching you carefully, as though ensuring his mistake had not caused deeper harm.
Thranduil-
In the halls of Mirkwood, a sudden commotion among the guards made Thranduil pull you sharply aside to keep you from the path of rushing soldiers. His grip tightened more than he intended, and you flinched. The king released you immediately. For a moment the court fell silent as his gaze dropped to the faint marks forming on your wrist. “Did I hurt you?” he asked quietly. Though his voice remained composed before the others, something in his eyes had changed. With a brief gesture he dismissed the court entirely. When the hall had emptied, he stepped closer again, his touch now far gentler as he examined your wrist. “My strength is not always suited for gentleness,” he admitted softly. “Yet with you… I should remember to try.”
