Hi, Eli! Could you share your favourite Tentoo/Rose headcanons, please? Perhaps some with their daughter Mia, if you have any. I’m craving content for this lovely couple, and I absolutely adore everything you write about them! <3
I’ve been thinking about this ever since I got your lovely message a couple of days ago, it made me so happy ♥ I even toyed with the idea of writing a little fluffy ficlet involving Tentoo, Rose, and their newborn baby, but I’m struggling a bit with the ‘writing things’ thing right now so I didn’t even attempt it 😥
I did however start imagining how things might be if Rose and Tentoo from my 'Hourglass' verse had a baby, and here are a few things I can tell you about the early days:
Tentoo is a daddy’s girl long before their daughter is old enough to behave like a daddy’s girl. To say he’s smitten would be a gross understatement. All the doubts and insecurities he had during Rose’s pregnancy don’t simply disappear after her birth, but his heart is so full of love, they’re not so overwhelming anymore. Rose obviously adores their child, too, but of the two of them, Tentoo is the one encouraging co-sleeping, maybe even attempting breastfeeding once (just kidding…or am I?). He loves carrying her around in a kangaroo/sling, and Rose doesn’t even mind him doing it most of the time, as she figures she already got to carry her for over nine months. Always being sliiightly on the emotional side, he cries about as much as Rose does while she's dealing with her post-partum hormones, but most of them are good tears. The first time their baby smiles, he declares it to be hands-down the most beautiful, wondrous thing he’s ever witnessed in all of his long life.
Then she laughs for the first time, and he regenerates.
Celebrating 20 Years of The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring dir. Peter Jackson (Dec. 19, 2001)
I wish the ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.
So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

“After women, flowers are the most divine creations.” —Christian Dior
“when I was a kid… I asked my grandpa once if he ever killed any germans in the war. he wouldn’t answer. he said that was grown-up stuff. so… so I asked if the germans ever tried to kill him. but he got real quiet. he said he was dead the minute he stepped in to enemy territory. every day he woke up and told himself, rest in peace; now get up and go to war. and then after a few years of pretending he was dead… he made it out alive. that’s the trick of it, I think. we do what we need to do and then, we get to live. but no matter what we find in DC, I know we’ll be okay. because this is how we survive. we tell ourselves… that we are the walking dead.”
