New crack theory: the Took fairy-wife was the last Entwife
POV: you’re on a zoom meeting with the Lady of Ithilien
Maitimo Immortal
Hi my name is Maedhros Nelyafinwë Well-Shaped Coppertop and I have long copper hair (that’s how I got my epessë) that reaches my mid-back and glowing eyes radiating white fire orcs flee before and a lot of people tell me I look like Lady Nerdanel (if u don’t know who she is get da hell out of here!). I’m related to my father. He was a major fucking hothead, and I made some very bad choices myself, which I'm commited to not do again. I’m NOT an orc but my teeth are very sharp. I have freckled skin. I’m also a warlord, and I run a fortress called Himring on a hill called Himring in Eastern Beleriand. I’m a Son of Fëanor (in case you couldn’t tell) and I wear mostly red. For example today I was wearing a warm fur coat with a matching Star of Fëanor brooch from Himlad Topic, warm red tunic, warm red trousers and warm black boots. On my face I had cream protecting it from the cold. I was patrolling the walls of Himring. It was snowing and raining so there was no sun, but I knew Fingon is visiting soon which I was very happy about. I looked at Thangorodrim and put up my middle finger at it.

Indis: I wouldn’t necessarily die for Fëanor but I would need bail money
