He had no son, but a daughter only, whom he named MĂriel in the Elven-tongue; and to her now by right and the laws of the NĂşmenĂłreans came the sceptre. But PharazĂ´n took her to wife against her will, doing evil in this and evil also in that the laws of NĂşmenor did not permit the marriage, even in the royal house, of those more nearly akin than cousins in the second degree.  And when they were wedded, he seized the sceptre into his own hand, taking the title of Ar-PharazĂ´n; and the name of his queen he changed to Ar-Zimraphel.

Fic Snippet Train
Share a snippet from a fic that you loved writing but doesn't get a lot of attention! Then tag three other people. I wanna see your writing. :)
Thank you for the tag @imakemywings! I've got to pick one of my Tolkien Horror Week fics, out of the water, cold and blue because it was just such an experience to write. I loved writing the squishy, rotting horror of Tar-MĂriel's ghost, and her anger was so cathartic, it was one of those times when I was so swept up in the tide of a character's emotions I felt kind of dizzy (it's like being possessed, but fun!). I also had such a great time defining Elendil's personality and family dynamics more, which I hadn't really planned for but was fun.
She cut him off, her voice cracking with the strain. "You thought I was your wife," she sneered. "Your wife, your wife, it is in every foolish smile that you have shared with your shadow these past weeks.” It was not only the drowned numbness of her face that made her appear so cold, he thought. He could feel it, as if the frozen depths of the ocean flowed from her, chilling the air and the blood. “What of your Queen, Elendil?” she accused, eyes shining only with the outer light of the moon. “Or did you forget her?” A taunting note came into her voice, each word scraping up her bruised windpipe sharp enough to draw blood. “Tell me, NimruzĂ®r, are you of my cousin's lot after all?" "No," said Elendil, clinging to the word. He felt as if the balcony were sinking sand beneath his feet, unsteady and treacherous. "Ar-PharazĂ´n was a traitor-king—" "Aaah, so you did not forget me, you simply abandoned me." The wind was growing stronger, he thought, tugging at his hair and his tunic, cold nails nipping at his flesh. MĂriel, weighed down with water, showed no sign of movement or cold. "My lady—" "Tell me, Elendil, to whom do you owe your loyalty? To whom is it that you swear all your great oaths? To whom do you, a Lord of NĂşmenor, owe your loyalty, your love, your life?" He knew the path her words were leading him down. He had walked it himself, in fear and bitterness and hatred at his own helplessness. I would have sworn those oaths, he wished to say. I would have fought for you, followed you. He would have. Except … Except Isildur, waiting at the door to hear what his father intended to do upon Ar-PharazĂ´n’s usurpation of power, his hand already upon his sword-hilt. Except Anárion, playing with the hound pups as he came in from the hunt, his laughter cut off when he looked upon their faces. Except Mirima, sitting in the garden, weeping for what had almost been till her soft eyes were red and her beautiful face was puffy and salt-stained. She’s all alone, Elendil, she had whispered, staring at him with those reddened eyes, half-accusatory and half-begging. She’s living the hell we’ve all feared since we were girls.

big fan of the fact that luthien and dior are both only children. it makes sense bc they're both existences unprecedented in all of time and space, and naturally their parents would want to be careful with that. also it's cute imagining beren and luthien going to thingol and melian for advice about having a child so uniquely unlike everything that's ever come before them
#listen Luthien being Thingol and Melian's only heir and their being completely content with that is SO important to me#they had one beloved daughter and despite elves being particularly prolific at this point said#''nope we're good :) she is all we need''#which SUGGESTS that while elves are probably not thining a lot about succession#that luthien like idril is set up as the true heir of her kingdom#<- keeping prev's tags because yes!!#the silmarillion#luthien#dior#melian#thingol#beren

HEY GUYS!!
GUYS!!!
FRANCE HAS REACHED THE REQUIRED NUMBER OF SIGNATURES ON THE CITIZEN'S INITIATIVE AGAINST CONVERSION THERAPY IN THE EU!!
ONE COUNTRY DOWN, SIX TO GO!!
We also need still quite a few signatures in order to reach the one million required.
As to date, the six other countries with the most signatures are:
Spain - 38.72%
Finland - 30.31%
Ireland - 24.86%
Netherlands - 24.15%
Germany - 23.54%
Belgium - 23.09%
So yeah, still a long way to go, but we ARE slowly getting closer. Don't stop now! Don't let this stay within the community, either, if you have any friends or family who are open to queer rights, get them to sign, too!

Fingolfin and Anairë ❤️
A5 sketchbook drawing
Anairë headcanons because Jirt tells us almost nothing about this beautiful woman:
Her favorite jewelry is pearls, and her favorite necklace was a gift from Earwen
She initiated her courtship with Fingolfin. He was too scared of rejection to confess his feelings for her, so she asked him out instead
She’s outgoing and extroverted and makes friends easily
Her nails are always perfect
Somehow her manicure doesn’t get in the way of her hobbies, gardening and sewing
She loves flowers and has one of the prettiest flower gardens in Tirion
She makes quilts, a skill she learned from her mom. She makes little pictures in her quilts. Like she cuts the fabric into shapes of plants and animals and people. Their house has her picture quilts on the walls.
She has two sisters and a normal home life growing up
