#Araglas

[zk-temp-name]

In my decade plus time being a LOTR fan, I've never been into shipping anyone.

...Until seeing the movies again a week ago. Now I'm an Araglas fan.

Friend: LOTR just shows that men should be allowed to express their love openly whether physically and/or verbally to their friends without it being deemed non-platonic, like Gimli and Legolas as well as Frodo and Sam.

Me: absolutely agree

Friend: right, like another example would be, like, Aragorn and Legolas-

Me: -who are 100% in a romantic relationship and not at all platonic.

I hope you Like it. It's not Beta read, though

the line of elros ◈ chieftains of the dúnedain ◈ headcanon disclaimer

          Arahael was the elder son of Aranarth, and the second Chieftain of the Dúnedain. He was born and raised in Imladris alongside his brother Idhrion, who was his constant companion. The brothers competed for the affections of the maiden Avorniel, but not even her choice to wed Arahael instead of Idhrion could shake their unbreakable bond.           The birth of Arahael and Avorniel’s son Aranuir, delivered by Lord Elrond himself, established a tradition of the Chieftain’s heirs spending their formative years in Imladris. Aranuir was a serious man, vigilantly guarding Eriador against the dangers of the wild, and only his spouse Bellassamdir could make him smile. Bellassamdir’s cheer warmed the hearts of the Dúnedain even on their darkest nights, and they passed this good humor to their son Aravir.           Aravir was a man of quick wit and cunning action, matched in his cleverness by his wife, the smith Daerís. Though of an unassuming stature, Daerís was a skilled metalworker and forged many blades for her husband.           Their son Aragorn determined to free the Eriador of all evil, embarking on a quest to drive out the remaining orcs and trolls and win the allegiance of rogue men to his side. For eight years he worked tirelessly in this endeavor, but his life was cut short when he was killed by wolves, always a peril in these lands, but not one he had thought to guard against.           He was succeeded by his son Araglas, who had not anticipated to come into his inheritance for many more decades. To help him lead, Araglas depended first on his mother Galadil, a sharp-minded woman in the confidence of Elrond, and then his wife Aeneth, who balanced his mother’s ruthless practicality with pity and piety, traits she passed on to her son Arahad I.

if we include implied mortality (orange), we have our totals of:

total named: 129

dead, named: 43 not dead, named: 86

total unnamed: 273

probably dead, unnamed: 230 not dead, unnamed: 43

obviously the eventual mortality of the gazillion numenoreans does impact these numbers quite a bit, but it still does stand that more of the unnamed mothers/wives are dead than the named ones (84% vs 33%)

---

other notes:

orange = implied eventual death due to mortality at some point up to the end of the TA

[gender uncertain], [girlfriend], and [fiancee] characters were counted as wives

[existence uncertain] and [existence disputed] characters were included

[mortality uncertain] characters were counted as not dead

actually not only is Legolas’s mother still alive, post-quest she was like ‘Aragorn I’m your mum now’ and Aragorn was like ‘that’s kind of you but no need’ and she was like ‘NO. I AM YOUR MUM NOW.’

& Legolas was solemnly like ‘this means we are brothers now. I take my brotherly responsibilities very seriously. Family game night is on Tuesdays.’

that’s what happened.

[eltonjohndenver]

Legolas: i love you

Aragorn: awwww babe!

Legolas: i was talking to myself

[lesbian-elrond]

Legolas and Aragorn are both Swifties Gimli is a pretentious Apple Music asshole who thinks his taste is super indie but really he listens to like, the arctic monkeys send tweet

Even though I’m not as active as I used to be I still see you guys in my notifications ALL THE TIME and just wanted to say thanks :3

[sweetmaggie]

Ok it's time to do this

Hobbit: Frodo (yeah, this is very surprising xd)

Elf: Fëanor for ever

Dwarf: Gimli. Sometimes he's so freakin' funny! I think we all can agree with this

Human: Aragorn II, son of Arathorn II, son of Arador, son of Argonui, son of Arathorn I, son of Arassuil, son of Arahad II, son of Aravorn, son of Aragost, son of Arahad I, son of Araglas, son of Aragorn I, son of Aravir, son of Aranuir, son of Arahael, son of Aranarth, son of Arvedui, son of Araphant, son of Araval, son of Arveleg II, son of Arvegil, son of Argeleb II, son of Araphor, son of Arveleg I, son of Argeleb I, son of Malvegil, son of Celebrindor, son of Celepharn, son of Mallor, son of Beleg, son of Amlaith, son of Eärendur, son of Elendur, son of Valandur, son of Tarondor, son of Tarcil, son of Arantar, son of Eldacar, son of Valandil, son of Isildur... Tolkien is genius, but in this moment i hate him (and myself) sooo much!

Background character: Every single hobbit in the Shire, i think ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Character, Which Does Not Fit the Other Categories: Let me see... I go with Treebeard too

Relationship: Do I really have to pick one?! *cries, unable to decide*. Sam and Frodo, but not romantic.

Place: Shire. There is no question.

Book of Trilogy: Fellowship or Return of (my beloved) King. I really can't pick one.

Chapter: The Tower of Cirith Ungol. It was so sad and so cute at the same time. Frodo was like: "is this a dream?" and Sam simply being there for his Master... also, forehead kiss... 😭

Scene: What the heck?! LotR has so many wonderful scenes, and you really think I can pick one? But if I really must say it would be Faramir's meeting with Frodo and Sam.

Quote: Gandalf and Frodo's little "Gollum Conversation" in Moria, i think. So simply, so powerful!

Joke/meme: Potatoes, like you. That was really funny, but also cute.

Theme of the book: I am a Christian, so the similarity between Christ and Frodo is important to me. But also "you may be small, but you can do great things."

favorite (interpret however you like)

I will gladly take the opportunity to “interpret this however I like”, and do a little game like the “Relationships” one a few weeks back!

Reblog or comment and tell me your favorite:

Hobbit: Merry!

Elf: Glorfindel :-D

Dwarf: Gimli. There aren’t many to choose from in this book, but he is the best regardless.

Human: Beregond. To the surprise of no one.

Background Character: Tie between the Ranger who asked Sam if hobbits wash their heads before dinner, and the guard at Meduseld who washed the stones that Grima spat on.

Character Which Does Not Fit the Other Categories: Treebeard!! Closely followed by Bill the Pony!

Relationship: Frodo and Sam. Also to the surprise of no one.

Place: The Shire. Closely followed by Rivendell.

Book of the trilogy: Probably Fellowship! It’s just so fluffy and comforting.

Chapter: “The Scouring of the Shire”, closely followed by “Treebeard”.

Scene: The whole “I love him, whether or no” thing in Ithilien.

Quote: See above.

Joke/Meme: PO-TAY-TOES

Theme of the Book: THE POWER OF ✨FRIENDSHIP✨

WORD ASK GAME!

[iridescentoracle]

sometimes you really do just have to think about how Aragorn II son of Arathorn II son of Arador son of Argonui son of Arathorn I son of Arassuil son of Arahad II son of Aravorn son of Aragost son of Arahad I son of Araglas son of Aragorn I son of Aravir son of Aranuir son of Arahael son of Aranarth son of Arvedui son of Araphant son of Araval son of Arveleg II son of Arvegil son of Argeleb II son of Araphor son of Arveleg I son of Argeleb I is crowned king of united Gondor & Arnor and immediately uses it as an excuse to rename himself Elessar because yes yes twenty-four generations of chieftains of the Dunedain & kings of Arthedain is all well and good but he wants to sound like Elrond’s kid dammit. if it would bother his forefathers that he wants to ditch the ar(a)- prefix then maybe arathorn ii should have stuck around to have a say instead of getting himself killed when aragorn was two but instead elrond’s the one who actually raised him thanks and he wants to be really really really unsubtle about that and there’s nothing anyone else can do about it so there. also he’s extremely extra and figured out how to name himself after elrond and elrond's dad at the same time and also do a matchy thing with his wife in the process (because the shared ar(a)- prefix wasn’t enough because aragorn, like everyone else in his entire family in the entire history of the world, is extremely extra sometimes) so like really how could he not

anyway then aragorn and arwen went on to look at that whole twenty-four generations of chieftains & kings shared ar(a)- prefix again later and again said “hm no thanks we're gonna stick with the “elrond's family” thing thx” and named their kid son of the elves. just in case anyone was wondering whether aragorn had had second thoughts at some point.

like i just. think about that a lot

[anghraine]

i don't like to be snide about people's ships as a rule but, I just cannot understand what exactly is the appeal of Aragorn/Legolas to give it such a massive following, other than the fact that the movies have two attractive guys with two different types of attractiveness? I don't recall anything in even the movies, let alone the books, that gives them a uniquely meaningful connection, or am I missing something?

IIRC Legolas is pretty defensive of Aragorn in the movies, though we don’t really know why or what their background is. Ships have sailed on less, but tbh it’s always been a “?????” for me. But, honestly, I don’t have much in the way of ship goggles outside of protags, so I’m not sure where it falls on the great Kirk/Spock to Not On The Same Show scale of slashiness.

I never saw any particular closeness in the books, but ... movie Legolas and book Legolas are pretty remote, so.

the line of elros ◈ chieftains of the dúnedain ◈ headcanon disclaimer

          Arahad was the son of Araglas, and the seventh Chieftain of the Dúnedain. During his rule, the Watchful Peace came to an end when Sauron returned to his fortress of Dol Guldur and spurred his orcs to multiply. Arahad was wearied by these struggles and leaned on his wife, the wise-woman Silivreneth, for support.           The son of Arahad and Silivreneth was Aragost, who was firmer of will than his father and more active in fighting against the rising turmoil in the North. Though Sauron focused his efforts on Gondor and Rhovanion, not Eriador, he was ever vigilant in his defense of his lands. His wife Alphalas was dear friends with Lord Elrond’s wife Lady Celebrían, bonding with her over their shared love for swans, for which Alphalas was named and Celebrían honored as a symbol of her mother’s Telerin heritage.           Alas, Arahad’s wisdom and Aragost’s guarded watch upon the Misty Mountains were, though valiant, imperfect, and Celebrían was waylaid by orcs upon her return from a visit to her parents in Lothlórien. All her companions were slain, including Alphalas, who had been eager to meet the great Lord and Lady of the Golden Wood. Celebrían’s twin sons Elladan and Elrohir found and recovered her, but she was deeply affected by her time in bondage to the orcs and not even Elrond’s medical abilities could save her. The next year, she departed for the West in search of deeper healing.           Alphalas’ young son Aravorn was only twelve years old at the time of her death, and before she sailed, Celebrían made sure to pass along his mother’s love to the child. He was the last Heir of Isildur to know the Lady of Imladris. He carried this sorrow all his life, marrying an equally solemn woman, Sírdhem, whose own parents had been slain by orcs.           The son of Aravorn and Sírdhem was Arahad II, named for his great-grandfather. Despite his parents’ melancholy attitudes, Arahad was a boisterous man of great cheer. He frequently traveled westward to the borders of the Shire, and though he never trespassed upon the land of the periannath he took great heart and comfort from watching their flourishing community, knowing his and his fathers’ efforts to fight against evil were doing good in the world.          It was on one such journey that Arahad met Ellother, a hunter from a small community of Men in the Hills of Evendim. They became fast friends, and soon Ellother asked to be Arahad’s spouse. Though Ellother had a lesser lifespan than their Dúnadan husband, their love was great and from it came an heir, Arassuil.           In the first part of his rule as Chieftain, Arassuil established trade with the hobbits of Bree, delighted by their recent development of pipe-weed. But soon troubles increased in the North, with the orcs of the Misty Mountains growing bold enough to raid Eriador. Arassuil and his rangers fought tirelessly to hold them back, but one party managed to reach the Shire where they were fought off by a brave band of hobbits.           Upon hearing tale of their leader, Bandobras “Bullroarer” Took, Arassuil was greatly impressed and traveled to honor him in person, though Bullroarer had only a vague idea of who this strange Man was. However, this friendship was fortunate, for soon the Long Winter arrived. Many lives were lost throughout Eriador, and with the aid of the wizard Mithrandir, Arassuil and the Rangers of the North brought supplies from Rivendell to the Shire to aid the hobbits.           As he aged, Arassuil grew weary from his wounds, and was forced to spend more and more time in Imladris where his grandson Argonui was growing into a young man. Though he cherished this time with his family, Arassuil worried that he was not doing enough as Chieftain. His wife Glórineth, a few decades younger than him, bravely took up the task of leading the Rangers in their journeys alongside their son Arathorn I. Glórineth and Arathorn continued to aid the hobbits of the Shire and also to the dwarves of the recently-sacked Erebor as they made their long pilgrimage westward to the Blue Mountains.
