working on elf cosplay for dragon con next year and I gotta say JRRT’s depiction of a fëanorian lamp isn’t a lot to go on
Month: October 2017
I just edited a whole scene only to realize that I needed to re-write the whole scene i’m so anGEREY >:A
you know, there’s a disconnect between bird-attracting melian/flowers-growing-from-her-footprints luthien and menegroth. because those work well in a forest kingdom but not so well in a cave palace.
luthien is followed by an elf with weedkiller so she doesn’t crack all the flagstones.
Me: Alright! Time to break in the new AO3 with some of my old fics!

You guys, the wizard duel between Finrod and Thû is one of my favorite scenes in the whole legendarium, I love it so, so much. :’)
This picture was a WIP in my art folder for a year and while I always meant to finish it, I didn’t plan on spending as much time on it as I did. It’s still super rough, and I may revisit it again sometime in the future when I’m inspired, but for now I’ve gotta move on. XD
finrod please wear this


the craftsman of the Gwaith-i-Mirdain
“Only in Eregion, which Men called Hollin, did Elves of Noldorin race establish a lasting realm beyond the Ered Luin. Eregion was nigh to the great mansions of the Dwarves that were named Khazad-dûm, but by the Elves Hadhodrond, and afterwards Moria. From Ost-in-Edhil, the city of the Elves, the highroad ran to the west gate of Khazad-dûm, for a friendship arose between Dwarves and Elves, such as has never elsewhere been, to the enrichment of both those peoples. In Eregion the craftsmen of the Gwaith-i-Mírdain, the People of the Jewel-smiths, surpassed in cunning all that have ever wrought, save only Fëanor himself”

Glaurung, the Father of Dragons. My Mythology instructor’s reaction was just, “you just really like dragons” and I was like…”yah”
90% sure Melkor seduced Mairon by singing “my anagronda don’t"
that’s an absolutely fair assumption
everyone else was wrong
A RUNDOWN OF PEOPLE WHO ARE WRONG IN CHILDREN OF HURIN:
morgoth, because that curse was mean
hurin, because wow not the time for backtalk mister
orodreth, because the bridge wasn’t his idea but he signed off on it
saeros, for teasing a moody young man with bad hygiene
glaurung, for his incest kink
PEOPLE NOT WRONG IN CHILDREN OF HURIN:
morwen, who is perfect and irreproachable
PEOPLE STABBED TO GIVE TURIN MANPAIN:
beleg
brandir
PEOPLE WHO WERE MASTER OF FATE BY FATE MASTERED:
turin, son of hurin
how dare you I have done nothing wrong ever in my whole life
