Reblogging because this is probably the smartest thing I will read on the internet today. Thank you guys.

If your apology involves degrading yourself, calling yourself shit or insulting yourself, its not an apology, try again.

The war tent sex is fucking canon, alright. Her Honour Miss @chicotfp (why do these tags not work, my lady) has said so and we do not argue with her.

@elvenhymntoelbereth

Just noticing your beautiful tag on a Barduil post and wanted to publicly and wholeheartedly agree. They fucked everywhere in that war tent. Thank you.

This is sooo Erestor 😂😅

Glorfindel, leaning on the counter: Hey beautiful, come here often?

Erestor: Is this the part where I remind you we've been married for four years or do I play along?

Glorfindel: Play along!

Erestor: All right. Sorry, I'm not interested. I'm married.

[meneliltare]

Because you would cause additional emotional turmoil nobody wants.... oh, wait.

Melkor: “Why are threesomes only for sex? Why can’t I join in a couple’s argument if I want to?”

Awww - beautiful soul. Couldn't agree more.

"likes mean nothing on tumblr" you're sending me a little heart. that's not nothing it's your heart. look here's one for you <3

[meneliltare]

Stop putting all of this stuff on my feed that's way too real to admit, okay? ...seriously. Why is this me. ...at least I realise it at some point. And try.

what they don't tell you about making friends is you gotta be a lil annoying. you gotta push past the fear of "what if they don't want to talk to me" and simply ask someone how their day is going, send a meme. you cannot connect to people if you're both just awkwardly waiting for the other to start.

[meneliltare]

No need to say it, I can feel it in my... bones. Somewhere.

They call him the sword swallower on account of how he. Um. How he uhh... I shan't say.

[meneliltare]

Guys, we gotta talk. I'm not even into Bagginshield (I'm sorry but I'm not gonna wrap my head around sexy dwarves/hobbits), but you lot are posting all this cute and funny shit and my heart cannot resist it, kindly fuck off .❤️ (No please don't, I keep liking all of your posts for some reason..)

Thorin tries to use the "I am the King Under The Mountain" line on Bilbo during an argument and Bilbo raises an eyebrow and gives him such a Look that Thorin immediately apologizes so he doesn't end up King Sleeping on the Couch Tonight

Just...this.

Finding a fic from almost a decade ago that's so incredibly written is like finding a bar of gold at the bottom of the ocean. I love AO3 so much my beloved

You absolute fucking hero. I need more of you in my life.

Barduil NSFW headcanons

(Partially Modern!AU)

Thranduil uses a commanding tone in private. Or he can just gesture to show Bard what to do. For example, just point his finger where to kiss and caress.

Bard is always the top, and Thranduil is always the bottom. But this does not mean that Thranduil's desires are not brought to the fore. There is constant inequality in their relationship, and it suits both of them.

These idiots keep forgetting about condoms. BARDUIL CREAMPIE CULTURE!!!

Thranduil lives in incomprehensible to anyone periods. No matter how much Bard tries to figure out what his mood depends on, it's inexplicable and chaotic. For example, Thranduil can played hard-to-get for a week or more, and then suddenly the blood hit not his head at all, and then Bard just lies there and prays that his lover will let him go.

Bard sometimes stops the impatient Thranduil by placing his hands on his hips and gently stroking the skin there, slowing him down.

They love to tease each other by changing the tempo or pose. Everyone does it according to their taste. But all the provocations end when one of them whispers something like "Move with me."

Thranduil is generally a fan of teasing Bard. He has a "habit" of sending Bard something like "By the by, how do you like my shirt?" and a photo where he's wearing nothing but a shirt. The worst part is that he sends it to his work email.

Thranduil, if saddling Bard, likes to pause the action and just sway, laughing and looking down from top to bottom. Without getting off Bard's dick, by the way.

They have clear rules set by Thranduil: what is allowed and what is not allowed. But Bard likes to break them by biting his skin just above what his clothes could cover.

If Bard manages to pin Thranduil down to the sheets (preferably lying on his stomach), he always holds him by the neck in a stranglehold, just without too much pressure.

In general, asphyxia is a fairly common practice in their sexual relations. More often than not, Thranduil can gently squeeze a lover's neck on emotion if Bard overreaches with rudeness.

After intimacy, Thranduil often sits contentedly on top of Bard's hips, kissing him for a long time.

I was very pleased with the feedback from the last post, you are so sweet( •̀ ω •́ )✧

[meneliltare]

Please. It makes me feel so much less alone. 😅

if you would be so kind as to reblog this if you feel insecure about your writing skills.
