I love book of lost tales Turgon so much. He literally sees his father have his heart cut out of his chest in front of him, and hacks his way through his enemies to get both it and his father's body back. He then decides to put his father's bloody scarlet heart on his banner. He makes most traumatic thing he has ever seen on his personal symbol! Turgon is not and never was the 'sane' Finwëan.

'"Gil, you can't run away every time I have paperwork for you!" Elrond cried, stumbling as the stack of books and scrolls threw off his balance.

"Watch me!" The ñoldo king replied, scampering ahead. Celebrimbor didn't deign the spat important enough to raise his head from his reading.'

A scene from a baby fic that's probably never leaving limbo.

do you ever wonder if your choice of blorbo is random baby chick imprinting, or in fact a deep physiological profile that reveals all the things you need therapy for

goldberry and belladonna took enjoying a frolic in the withywindle! i like to think that on her adventures, belladonna braved the old forest and met goldberry, with whom she became friends. before she settled down, she would go and visit during the spring and early summer; assisting the river-maid with her chores, delighting each other with dancing, singing, and storytelling! even after she married bungo baggins, she never forgot those magical times...

[ID: an edit comprised of 6 posters in shades of golden brown.

1: A close-up of Michael Lockley, an african-american model with brown skin and a blond afro. He is looking to the left with a serious expression and is outlined by a white frame. White text at the bottom of the image reads "eärendil" and "of mariners most renowned" / 2: A starry night sky with the clouds of a nebula or galaxy / 3: Foamy ocean waves / 4: A close-up of Indira Scott, an african-american model, laughing in the sunlight. She has light brown skin and hair in box braids, some of which are bleached. Same format as Image 1, but the text reads "tindómiel" and "morning star of anadûnê" / 5: Ana Flávia, an afro-brazilian model with brown skin and coily black hair. She is wearing a white top and has on a jeweled hairpiece along with some facial jewelry. She is looking towards the viewer with a neutral expression. Same format as Images 1 and 4, but the text reads "undómiel" and "the last ember of a dying age" / 6: A sunset in the woods /End ID]

I'm imagining if tolkien lived now and publishers were asking him if he had enough followers on twitter and if he could film videos to market his found family elfcore magic cottagevibes worldbuilding fantasy book on tiktok. i think he would run them over with his car actually

everyone adding "charge 'em and they scatter" in the tags... we all get to sit in the back of the car together <3
