Elf Week: Rivendell,
or Imladris, was a haven of Elven bliss in the Misty Mountains on the eastern edge of Eriador.

Moar chubby elf friend, please?
>w> throwing me a softball, eh? I like it!
– I have more headcanons for Salgant than I have any right to. He’s just one of those characters that you can like, take a leaf-clipping of canon, repot, and grow and entirely new character from in your head. Tolkien wrote exactly enough about Salgant for him to become my favorite NPC in the Silmarillion (which he does not actually appear in). I mean, our one canon-confirmed chubby elf? That is my absolute top priority, thank you.
–I can and will ship him with my other favs because no one on earth has the power to stop me from giving love interests to every fat character.
–Soft lads who are just a little bit craven but have a heart of gold, secretly more clever/resourceful than they look, and are generally disliked by their peers but have a surprising friend in the tall-dark-handsome Loner Boy are my weakness. (*cough*SamwellTarly*cough*)
–I can tell you with absolute certainty that Salgant is hot as hell and has The Best ass and everyone in Gondolin is fucking weak for not admitting it.
–The way he’s described in canon makes me think he handles money. Like, House of the Harp is definitely in charge of banking in Gondolin, and this makes everyone salty and the historians are petty. I want my boy to have a good head for numbers and finance and also pastries and literature.
–HE BABYSITS EÄRENDIL. HE IS BABY EAR’S NANNY. HE READS HIM BOOKS AND TELLS FUNNY STORIES. I’M SCREAMING. THIS IS A REAL THING.
–Maeglin was definitely his first kiss.
I’m feeling v sick today ;v; ask me questions about Silm ships or characters?
“Frodo heard a sweet singing running in his mind: a song that seemed to come like a pale light behind a grey rain-curtain, and growing stronger to turn the veil all to glass and silver, until at last it was rolled back, and a far green country opened before him under a swift sunrise.”
Salo is an awesome product, I swear. Ukrainian salo however is the only one that is worthy of attention (too bad swines and pigs were killed off in last years…)” Salo in chocolate” candy is a weird cryptic thing, and is legit (i believe its more western Ukrainian, West, East Ukraines, Odessa, Kiev, Crimea are all very different things) Many find it a some queer (literature meaning, not slang) culinary perversion. The jest might have been started by other Ukrainians, only to spread uncontrollab
I will have to try it someday! XD It honestly sounds like something I’d enjoy with some potatoes or bread– even with chocolate I’d probably try it.
Today has been educational for me, anon. Thank you!
*There is a gift box in the Throne room. Inside the box there is… salo in chocolate? Oh, it is surely salo in chocolate… Who even thought that it is an appropriate way to prepare salo? Who even decided to ruin such perfectly good product? At least those questions were on the mind of whoever packaged the gift. The one who prepared it however was perfectly assured of superiority of chocolated salo.*
I don’t have enough Slav Cred to respond to this, in character or otherwise.
(Melkor takes a bite of it anyway and seems to enjoy himself, because of course he does)
“Then Morgoth recalled the doom of Huan, and he chose one from among the whelps of the race of Draugluin; and he fed him with his own hand upon living flesh, and put his power upon him. Swiftly the wolf grew, until he could creep into no den, but lay huge and hungry before the feet of Morgoth. There the fire and anguish of hell entered into him, and he became filled with a devouring spirit, tormented, terrible, and strong. Carcharoth, the Red Maw, he is named in the tales of those days, and Anfauglir, the Jaws of Thirst. And Morgoth set him to lie unsleeping before the doors of Angband, lest Huan come.”
— J.R.R. Tolkien, The Silmarillion, p.180 (Of Beren and Lúthien)
