all the times Dmitri and Anastasia protected and saved each other…

-google pictures for the world that you are trying to create

-horses, swords? what is it you are looking for?

-chat to your characters just normally (in your head)

-if you are writing an action spin it in your head, literally spin it, stop the scene and spin it to try and work out if it's going the way it's supposed to

Some of my writer’s block cures:

Handwrite. (If you already are, write in a different coloured pen.)

Write outside or at a different location.

Read.

Look up some writing prompts.

Take a break. Do something different. Comeback to it later.

Write something else. (A different WIP, a poem, a quick short story, etc.)

Find inspiring writing music playlists on YouTube. (Themed music, POV playlists, ambient music, etc.)

Do some character or story prompts/questions to get a better idea of who or what you’re writing.

Word sprints. Set a timer and write as much as you can. Not a lot of time to overthink things.

Set your own goals and deadlines.

Write another scene from your WIP. (You don’t have to write in order.) Write a scene you want to write, or the ending. (You can change it or scrap it if it doesn’t fit into your story later.)

Write a scene for your WIP that you will never post/add to your story. A prologue, a different P.O.V., how your characters would react in a situation that’s not in your story, a flashback, etc.

Write down a bunch of ideas. Things that could happen, thing that will never happen, good things, bad things.

Change the weather (in the story of course.)

Feel free to add your own.

We're Beren and Lúthien

In another interview from two years ago Charlie and Morfydd were asked who their favourite Tolkien characters are and they replied Beren and Lúthien. And then Charlie said "we're Beren and Lúthien". Some strong romantic undertones there about their characters' cosmic connection...

In tears

[dinosaurswant2rule]

She kicked his face, and suicide jumped the cliff rather than join him... and he can't take it, cant BELIEVE IT... so much grief. ALL THE STAGES OF GRIEF, denial, rage, loss, pain. look at those kicked puppy eyes, No more light for u mate, U BOTCHED IT, Its over, no blond eye-candy on your arm on sunday morning strolls, no half maia baby-girl-who-could-have-been.

All thats left is DESOLATION.

Charlie Vickers is just... i have no words. Perfection.

in a way, sauron x galadriel is a shipper's dream.

first of all, i love how everything about their story is so connected that it's difficult to pick a favorite haladriel moment as it feels like no scene can be seen as separate, each moment informs the other and gives it a significance, creating one big web of intertwined parallels in a tight narrative that's essentially a metaphor for the eternal push-pull of the light & the darkness.

(but if i had to choose favorites, i would say haladriel on the ship + "brought to its' knees to worship the light of its' queen". this line encapsulates their bond perfectly and it feels like this thought occured to him on that ship.)

insane chemistry and their soulmatism not knowing any bounds in trop aside, the context of trop!haladriel opens the door for interpretation and speculation about their post-trop relationship within trop continuity.

they mind-communicate for 3000+ years; he gropes ever to see her, and even if gal can close her door on him, she herself wanders around his mind from time to time. and they do all that while seeing each other from their balconies.

and we know they are doomed but are they really doomed forever when they are immortal? galadriel takes nenya to valinor and while it represents her leadership and fight, with trop it also symbolizes her connection to sauron. she even recites the very first thing he ever told her after she rejects the one ring, with sadness in her tone. sauron never stops trying to see her and, with trop context, wanting her to be his queen. uniting trop + other canons, it wouldn't be wrong to say they never get over each other.

so i say give them some time and they will somehow sort it out after like a billion years. valinor reunion not so impossible when the time frame is all eternity.

immortality + eternity = the landscape of this ship being infinite.

+ there is no set canon in legendarium, it's a living mythology that's told as a historic retelling by the witnesses of the events passed.

so... repentant sauron being bound to a high queen galadriel to fight against morgoth when?

and it's one of those ships that is simply so vastly beautiful and interesting that it inspires creativity, yk? and i love it.

List of “please don’t leave me alone” prompts

Using bodies to distract themselves from the fact that they don’t have someone to call their forever; that they aren’t worthy of anything more than just a one night stand or a casual fling.

Lying awake in the dark for the nth time, alone once again, the creeping dread of being alone forever eating away at them; the space next to them empty like it always ends up.

Finding someone and latching onto them for as long as they can, only to be left heartbroken, thoughts of things being this way forever so, so scary; wanting to believe they deserve love but perhaps they don’t and it’s something they have to be okay with.  

Hope at this point becomes false hope, because it’s starting to feel like they’re the reason no one wants to stay.

“Am I not enough of a reason for you to want to stay?” they would wonder on nights when nothing could distract them from their looming thoughts.

So when someone else comes along, they try to sabotage it because they think it wouldn’t work out anyway. As much as they like them, there’s a part of them that’s scared things won’t last, and they aren’t ready for another crushing disappointment.

Numbness is a self-defence mechanism at this point, and it’s quite clear to the both of them that that’s the case.

That person doesn’t leave, though. Not even when they’re being difficult as fuck. They go through many talks, and as frustrated as they are with them at times, they are very firm when they tell them they aren’t gonna leave and will be here for them through thick and thin; that they’re someone they do not want to lose.

Tears streaming down their face when they realise they’ve finally found someone who doesn’t want to lose them; that they’re worthy of unconditional love, as flawed as they are.

“You’re the first person to have ever told me that,” they whisper, voice thick with tears, as the other person holds them while they cry.

"And then...SWOOP!" 🤭
