#Fili and Kili may be her bros but the Ri brothers are her brothers

[helplessavacado]

The funniest part about Alda's character in my professional opinion is her whole relationship with Kili. Meeting each other in Ered Luin for the Very First Time? Instant roasting. On the road to Erebor? They rat each other out so many times because Funny. After Mirkwood? Alda relentlessly makes fun of Kili's crush on Tauriel. After BotFA? Ragging on each other for getting injured. They bully each other so much it's ridiculous.

But they will ALSO die for each other because they each remind each other of their siblings. Another dwarrow insulting Kili for his relationship with Tauriel? Alda emerges from the shadows like Batman, immediately starts throwing hands. Some weirdo harassing Alda in Esgaroth? Kili flies out of the water Aquaman Style and knees the fucker in the liver.

I enjoy found-sibling tropes very much okay let me live
