red string of fate au where james is sick and tired™ of having to wait for destiny to bring his soulmate to him.

especially because in this universe the intensity of the red in your string shows if you are close to your other half (bright red when you are really close, but a maroon-ish color when far)

also, only you can see your own string, and the only part that's truly visible is what's tied on your pinky finger and a bit of the loose part, but it's just a couple inches of it that then turns invisible so it's not a bother.

so! james' string is bright bright red, like BRIGHT red. his soulmate is close but he has no way to find out who it is until "the right moment" which is when he and his soulmate get to hold hands for the first time.

james tried to hold hands with EVERYONE (who was willing and with a bright string as well, he's not daft) on the gryffindor tower, his quidditch team, and even some students from other houses who he has classes with.

results: nothing.

he gets so riled up and impatient, that one day he just snaps.

which means: he goes to the great hall for breakfast (because everyone is there), sits at the very beginning of the gryffindor table (to have everyone in his field of vision), grabs as much of his red string as he can (so, right before it becomes invisible) and. pulls. like. a. motherfucker.

two things happen in like two seconds.

one. regulus black, who was just about to leave the great hall, is yanked backwards and barely caught by barty before he hits the ground. his arm painfully stretched to james' direction.

two. before james can finish processing that what the fuck, regulus black is his soulmate and sirius is going to murder him. regulus manages to stand back up properly, stares at his pinky like it has personally offended him, and. also. pulls. like. a. motherfucker.

so james also gets yanked, only that, as he was still stunned from what just happened, he gets pulled out of his seat and dragged for maybe five steps towards regulus. arm painfully stretched towards him.

sirius, who has been watching everything, loses his shit.

'you never read anymore, you used to love reading' and i have 200 safari tabs open. it never stopped it just got weird

[herbstfarbenfuchs]

one of the things i like about gigolas as a ship is the sheer amount of YEARNING!!!!

knowing legolas and gimli sort out their prejudice and allow themselves to become friends in lothlorien, we can assume it probably doesn’t take very long for the craving to start

legolas walks behind gimli, first to be near him and prolong their conversations about each others lives and cultures, but he notices there is peace in the silence too. the elf finds great comfort listening to gimli’s breath, and on quieter nights when he really concentrates, he thinks he can hear his heartbeat. it always makes him warm.

gimli takes to noticing how legolas will hum and sing softly to himself in sindarin from time to time. he asks the elf about it, and legolas proudly tells him ‘i sing when im happy’. that night while nestling down to rest, gimli realizes legolas has only ever sung while walking next to him, usually in breaks between their conversation. butterflies ensue!!!

but as soon as they realize that this sensation they’re feeling is actually a CRUSH it sounds alarm bells in both their heads. legolas doesnt want to ruin the friendship that has become so sacred to him. gimli doesn’t want to doom the immortal elf to a life of mourning after he inevitably passes. they both curse themselves for making it weird, and vow to never allow their secret love to see the light of day and burden the other. hence,,,,,the yearning

legolas’s breath hitches in his throat every time gimli touches him (which is a LOT considering they ride arod together!). gimli heart swells each time the elf spots him in a crowd, eyes searching (nearly frantic) until they land on him and soften with relief. they watch each other constantly when they think the other isn’t looking. aragorn is annoyed lol.

truly a delicious game of FEEL THE YEARN!!!! and as much they both wish to surprise and bury the feeling, willing it to disappear as a passing fancy, deep down inside they both know that it won’t. bc this ain’t no surface-level crush.

IT’S LOVE BITCH!!!!! MUAHAHAHAH

[herbstfarbenfuchs]

This! Came to say something like this. Becaus it is even more "showing their feelings" that they do act opposite if what they usually would

Why weren't they endgame?😪😪

And I know it is the opposite in the movie, Thorin died and Bilbo was ready to kill the Orc for Thorin etc but I feel it fits more their personality. Just my opinion

[herbstfarbenfuchs]

Bard totally thought Bilbo and Thorin were married

I’m back on my bs

So I remembered yesterday that the dwarves like totally lied straight to Bard’s face when they first met him, saying that they were going across the lake cause they were visiting their relatives in the iron hills. Now who knows how much of that he believed, but ya know, he didn’t ask many questions at least

So sure, cool. Couple of dwarves traveling between the blue mountains and the iron hills, nothing strange about that, they’re dwarves. But amongst the bearded little dudes, there’s a Hobbit. Hobbits, who famously rarely travel anywhere, much less as far as the iron hills. What is he doing so far from home?

But since none of the dwarves said anything akin to “Also this hobbit is traveling with us, just for convenience”, then it must mean that the hobbit is with them. Apart of the group, apart of the family. And unless one of these dwarves have adopted the little dude, which would be highly unlikely, he must be apart of the family in some other way. And what’a the most common way to enter a family? Marriage.

So the Hobbit, Bilbo as he introduces himself as, is probably married to one of the dwarves. But who? Well, he’s seen standing very close to the brooding one with dark hair and short beard. The brooding dwarf in fact rarely leaves his side, always standing on the ready to protect the little one.

And in the town square, when the brooding one (Thorin, rightful king of Erebor) needs someone to vouch for him, who is the first to pipe up but the hobbit, speaking highly of the young king, with adoration and hope in his eyes.

But not only did Bard probably think the two were married, no he also probably thought he was witnessing their divorce first hand on top of the wall of Erebor. Probably one of the weirdest couples he’s ever met, and his town had the unibrow guy hooking up with Stephen Fry.

[herbstfarbenfuchs]

And than he Was betrayed in exact the way he thought and went even more crazy, cause a broken wounder heart is so much worse than some "goldsicknes"

Thorin, gold sick and brooding:

Bilbo: so, about this acorn…

Thorin: This is my hobbit. Touch him and I’ll skin you alive

Even Goldsick, Thorin loved his hobbit above all else, enough to give him Mithril, and a golden smile when proceeded with the acorn instead of what he’d been accusing him of.

Do you ship it?

reason under the cut, spoilers for the books

The last high king of the Noldor and his herald. In the firs season we have seen Gil-galad instructing Elrond on how to be a ruler. The bond between them is likely to develop further, as we know from Tolkien's books that Gil-galad will give his magic ring to Elrond before he dies and entrust him with the future of the elves.

that shall now and forever be canon

A missed opportunity (a scene I wish they'd given us at the end of episode 7 or beginning of episode 8)

Gil-galad is still fighting, wielding Aeglos, cutting orcs left and right almost effortlessly. The orcs have been given orders by Sauron: capture the Elven leaders alive. But they can't get near to the king, let alone disarm him.

One of the orcs spots Elrond, lying barely conscious on the battlefield after Adar has nearly choked him to death. He grabs Elrond, pulls his body up and puts a knife to his throat.

Orc (to Gil-galad): "Surrender or I'll kill him"

The High King drops his spear in a heartbeat.

[herbstfarbenfuchs]

Scene/fic I need: I'm guessing Nenya healed Elrond's wounds when he put it on, but Gil-galad is overprotective, and he checks to make sure every last scrape is healed.

[herbstfarbenfuchs]

Ohh i love this! That makes it sooo easy to give us Elrond/Gil-galad (or Elrond/Durin if you prefere (obv. every other pair is fine as well, just not my cup of tea ;) )) and still let him have a healthy relationship with Celebrian.

This idea is just beautyful.

I had this weird thought of homosexuality being the norm for elves, and opposite sex relations only really exist for making babies, and part of the reason Elrond is so against Arwen pursuing Aragorn is because no daughter of his is going to be a damn hetero.

[herbstfarbenfuchs]

You know how elves can deal with the cold much better than humans (like Legolas prancing over the snow as the others fucking curse the weather)?

My headcanon is that Elrond is somewhat in between humans and elves in terms of how his body reacts.

He has an abnormal amount of coats and scarves gifted to him by Gil-galad.

Gil-galad grew up hearing horror stories of what happened to some of the elves who crossed the Helcaraxë, so the first time he saw Elrond's nose start to turn red in winter, he went overboard on protective measures.
