// I always feel like I should put a disclaimer on my blog that warns people who follow me that my content is roughly 1/3 Thoughtful Meditations On Canon+Aesthetic Posts, 1/3 Shitposts, and 1/3 In-Character Roleplay, and it’s a genuine crapshoot as to what you’re going to be given that day. 
…And if you followed for original art and fic, I’m sorry. I am just… so sorry. Please accept this lizard as an apology. 

gemma-antiqua:

Scythian gold torque in the form of dragons, dated to the 2nd century BCE to the 1st century CE. From the source:

Hundreds of tiny scales are individually soldered to the writhing forms of two confronted dragons on this magnificent gold torc. Thick curving horns sweep back over the long pointed ears of the rather wolf-like dragon heads. With muzzles drawn into ferocious snarls, these mighty beasts express the formidable strength of the Scythians, one of ancient Eurasia’s most powerful cultures.

My favorite Celebrimbor headcanon is that he was, in fact, suspicious of Annatar. He noticed the things that didn’t make sense, he was very conscious that he was being directed in a particular direction, he often picked up on parts of Annatar’s story that felt off…

But he knows that Fëanor was famous for being too suspicious to collaborate with anyone, for distrusting everyone who tried to correct him, for working alone and never taking advice or direction, and so Celebrimbor distrusts all his own instincts, he’s internalized very very deeply that his intuitions are Fëanorian and suspect and evil and that the right thing to do is overriding them.

And he’s wrong.

// Twenties Slapstick A.U.:
Morgoth just wanted to show Finwe his new spider pet and lost control of her.

Ungoliant thought Melkor was courting her and was very hurt when he showed such poor bedside manners (calling his mates and running for the iron hills as soon as they were done).

All the kinslayings and battles choreographed like a series of incidents.

Gothmog and his other balrogs mates were merely trying to give Feanor five.

Melkor and Fingolfin trying to Point each other the chinks in their armours.

All of Tùrin’s life.

Maedhros never jumped, he actually tripped in the chasm.

Starring Buster Keaton as a confused but accidentally competent Maedhros (+balrogs)

and Chaplain as Morgoth.
