#Peregine Took

[pictopye]

Figure Fridays #13:

TLDR: Got a fair amount done, not for the best reasons, but you do what you gotta do to keep moving! Got to play with three new paints and a new paintbrush – Pro Acryl Jade, Warm Flesh, Shadow Flesh, from Monument Hobbies; and the brush is my first sable/hairbrush from Rosemary & Co… Both were absolute game changers in terms of how smooth and how much easier the color can be moved around compared to my current supplies. Finished the Gondorian Warrior from The Last Alliance of Men and Elves, as well as Pippin, and started up on the Nazghul.

The Long Rambley:

After last week’s migraine hit me hard, I was leery as to how far I’d get along this week. I had ordered my first sable brush from Rosemary & Co. a few weeks back and they arrived last week – so this was the first session I was able to mess with them. On top of that when I went into town for groceries I chose to stop by a game supplies shop and grabbed a couple bottles of Monument Hobbies Pro Acryl – Jade, Shadow Flesh, and Warm Flesh – as my white does make things a tad chalky and honestly I wanted a short cut on skin tones. :P

And holy cow both the new brush and paints made me realize how much the paint and brushes can make a difference. The smoothness of the paint is absolutely wild, and the fact that my brush could HOLD paint and keep its point…. Just wow. So, I think I’ll be looking to slowly build out my paints by just replacing the colors I use most with legitimate miniatures paints.

I finished up the Gondorian Warrior from The Last Alliance of Men and Elves – matched his base to the Elven Archer from before. Also finished up Pippin and the Jade really came in clutch here for his jacket. Words still can’t express how much smoother Pro Acryl has been compared to my current paints from Josonja.

I started on the Nazghul and really wanted to play up the usage of green/blues that were used both for the scene at Weathertop, but also mirrored within the shots of Minas Ithil/Morgul. Likely before the end of the weekend I’ll have him finished up.

Then it’s onto some good ol’ Fallout with ‘The Ghoul’ Cooper Howard, and CX404!

So, thanks for checking in, and hopefully see y’all next week!

Tolkien really does like knocking out Hobbits right as the Eagles arrive amiright?

[incorrect-tolkien-quotes]

Pippin: Once again, Merry and Pippin save the day!

Sam: You didn't do anything. It was all Merry.

Pippin: We're a package deal, everyone knows that.

When u said for LSOP au that Peregine and Aurora had kids I took physical damage

Just imagining the horror movie dynamic of a perfect family vs a crumbling marriage and oh hey there's an actual war going on and the love of ur life was involved

It made me think of how peregrine and Jace would be married/had kids and then I took more physical damage

GOD. yeah. yeah. i think peregrine is like very concerned with legacy in the way guys who are insane about masculinity are, so he needs to have children, and jace meanwhile is like. abort that thang not super into the idea of having and raising kids at all, he's never pictured his life including that. but like. in three-way call (infidelity au) peregrine and jace are married, and if they got married, i think jace would have kids. if peregrine asked. out of obligation to his husband and to help maintain the image of being a Perfect Family.

and like. jace wouldnt be the worst parent in the world. but he's not the best. i think he'd be fine providing for them materially but he has problems with emotional honesty and is sooooo ill-prepared to support a kid through any problem theyre having. his answer is always like "have you tried casting fireball on them? oh you cant cast fireball because youre not a caster like i am? well sorry kiddo i dont know what you want from me. you have a crystal, look it up"

speaking of casting, however: if he had a kid that was a sorcerer like him he would absolutely be like one of those insane stage parents who micromanage their kid and push them to the limits to "make them the best they can be". that child is getting SO much more attention than any other kid they have (threat). they have to bear the weight of every single one of jace's unrealized dreams. if they do not succeed then that means jace failed all over again and he will NOT have that.

Hello!! How are you? I was wondering if I may request a Legolas x Reader where reader is inhumanly fast and strong, but appears quite dainty? (Maybe she lifts someone off the ground by their neck and Leggy is just ????) And Reader has to explain that she’s something supernatural? I love Supernatural readers, it’s my favorite trope :D Anyways, feel free to ignore!!!

At the moment, I'm not ignoring any requests that have already been sent to me. However, the turn around time for requests may take a bit longer due to me being a full-time college student. Translations are at the bottom, btw. Enjoy! 

P.S. With the new copyright bullsh*t going on with the Tolkien Estate, it should be noted that all credit for plots, characters, languages, really anything that is familiar to you, belongs to the Tolkien Estate until the works of J.R.R. Tolkien become public domain. I own nothing familiar to you.

Something Wicked (Legolas x Skinchanger!Reader)

Summary: During your pursuit of Merry and Pippin, a run-in with some rogue Uruk-Hai reveals abilities previously unknown to the Hunters. And your abilities seem to have caught the eye of a certain prince.

You were always adept at keeping who you were well under wraps. Your ‘other side’ had been the reason for being exiled from your home village and leaving you wandering alone in the North. But there was just something about the Uruk-Hai that made you lose control of yourself.  

Maybe it was the fact that they had just slaughtered Boromir and stolen Merry and Pippin right from under you. Maybe it was because Saruman, a man whom you once trusted, had created an army of Uruk-Hai in the name of Sauron. Or perhaps it was because you were now forced to chase the horde of monsters across Rohan on foot and had been short on food and sleep for days now. 

Whatever the cause for your frustration had been, it didn’t matter anymore. What did matter was the fight in front of you. A handful of the Uruk-Hai had decided to slow you down, stopping you and the Hunters at a small outcropping of rock. And though your skills with a sword and shield were admirable, you soon found yourself weaponless, your shield splintered and strewn across the rocks. 

A pair of the ugly beasts had you cornered between the outcropping’s cliffside and themselves, forcing you ever closer to the cliff’s edge. Beyond where you were, Gimli and Legolas were keeping themselves entertained, creating a head count of the monsters they killed, while Aragorn fought on his own below the cliff, trying to keep his eyes on the horde that carried the Hobbits. 

You felt a foot slip underneath you, but caught yourself just in time before you were sent over the edge of the cliff. You had nowhere else to go. 

“Silly little human,” one of the Uruk-Hai growled, “Time to die.”

‘No.’ You heard your other half say in your head, ‘Not today.’

Your eyes flashed silver, and suddenly you found yourself watching your actions from a distance. You let out a vicious roar, your face shifting to that of a black wolf, your limbs turning to paws, your teeth turning sharp and jagged. 

When Legolas and Gimli finally found themselves out of Uruk-Hai to kill, they both looked up to see you now towering over the pair of creatures that had cornered you. 

“By the Gods, is that... Y/N?” Gimli asked, his axe falling from his hands. Legolas stood frozen in place as you grabbed one of the Uruk-Hai with your teeth and threw him over the cliffside. Your silver eyes turned their attention to the second creature, who dropped his battle axe and ran. You moved to run him down, but Legolas had snapped from his stupor and sent a single arrow through the beast’s eye, bringing him down before you reached all fours. 

You growled, your eyes locking on the elf. He shouldered his bow and held up his hands. 

“Y/N, it’s us. Your friends. Please... come back to us.” He gently pleaded. 

You snarled, bearing your teeth as he began to step toward you slowly. The fur on your back began to stand up as you began to crouch. 

“Y/N, please. It’s me, it’s Legolas. Gilgalad, come back to me,” the elven prince begged, “Ceri- ú- let hi radag take cin awaui o nin.”

The growling stopped, you straightened up on your paws and cocked your head. Your wolf form seemed to understand Sindarin, though your human side did not. 

“It’s listening to you, lad!” Gimli called out, “Keep talking!”

Legolas stepped ever closer to you, extending his hand to you, “Im mel cin, Y/N. Im gar- an months. Im tur-'t bróg na lose cin like hi. Please, mel nin, come back to me.” 

Your eyes softened, your ears flicked gently in the direction of the dwarf and the elf. Legolas stepped forward, closing the gap between you. Cautiously, he stretched out his hand, allowing you to meet him by pressing your head into his palm. You stood for a moment in silence, before releasing a deep breath and feeling your body shift. Legolas withdrew his hand and in moments, you had returned to your human form, fully clothed with only the silver of the wolf’s eyes remaining, though that too soon faded away.

From behind you, Aragorn’s grunts and hurried footsteps drew your attention. The heir of Isildur came to a halt some ways away from you and Legolas, a tired smile upon his weary face. 

“So you’ve finally told them?” He asked you. 

“Showed them is more like it.” You replied, “Though I had hoped I could restrain myself until we had caught up to the hobbits.”

“You knew?” Legolas asked, pointing his gaze at Aragorn, “You knew all this time and said nothing?”

“It was not my secret to tell,” The ranger answered calmly, “It was Y/N’s.”

Gimli rested himself upon his axe, “Well then don’t keep us in suspense. Out with it!”

“I’m a skinchanger. One of two that remain in Middle-Earth.” You explained, doing your best to ignore the awestruck stare that the elvish prince was sending your way, “The other, Beorn, resides between the Misty Mountains and Mirkwood, taking form of a great bear. My family’s ancestral home lied within the territory of the wargs. It is because of them that I am all that remains. But you have nothing to fear from my wolf; it will not harm you. It craves only the blood of wargs, orcs, and Uruk-Hai.”

With that, the dwarf was satisfied, hoisting up his axe and following Aragorn in the direction of the Uruk-Hai still in possession of Merry and Pippin. Legolas made to follow them, but before he could take a step, your hand made its way around his arm. 

“Did you mean it?” You asked, your voice trembling ever so slightly. Legolas arched a brow at your question. 

“The wolf. It translates for me.” You clarified, your eyes pleading, “Did you mean what you said?”

The elf smiled and pulled you to him, pressing a gentle kiss into your hair, “Every word, mel nin. Every single word.”

War of Thorns AU (Part 4)

(Continued from here!)

Peregrin gripped tightly onto the the dark red scales, her knuckles a bit paler than her skin. The air was rushing past her, whipping her hair around and her clothes flapping furiously. ‘Why did I even agree to this?!’ Perry thinks to herself as she tries her outmost not to look down at The Great Sea.

A series of thundering rattles reminded Perry to keep an eye out for the huge wings behind her, and again refreshing her thought. There she was, clinging to the back of the second biggest dragon she has ever laid eyes on, Khadgar not too far ahead of her, and the Great Sea all around them. When Tyran had said the other night he would offer to fly them along the coast towards Feralas, she had thought of something completely different.

But after seeing him as his true self later the same night, in that regal form, she knew she was going to have a whole different kind of journey ahead of her. So here she was, trying to not fall off the back of the former Prime Consort of Alexstrasza, on her way to Feathermoon Stronghold.

Its not even noon, and Perry can begin to see the faint shade of Feathermoon Isle on the horizon, its only an hour or so away now. Travelling like this seemed even faster than taking the Gryphon across Kalimdor.

Peregrin adjusted her position a little, trying her best not to let go of the spine spike and armor scale she was holding onto. She would not find it fun to fall off right now. ‘Urgh,, he was not joking about the saddle sore jest,,’ Perry muttered to herself, though she could barely hear herself in the rushing wind.

~Little one, I am beginning to descend now, hold on tight. The isle is not too far now.~ Peregrin feels/hears? Tyran’s voice in her mind, and wraps bot her arms around the spine spike and clenches her legs against the coarse scales. Her stomach begins to float up her body while feeling the huge muscles under her begin to shift, the huge body bending to dive down towards the sea. Her body wants to pull back, to tumble and bounce along the Red Dragon body but she presses herself firmly to the spike, praying to Elune she atlea urvive this bit of the journey. 

She squeezes her eyes shut, as the sea comes barreling up towards her, but thankfully she feels Tyran pull up a few feet off the surface of the ocean. The smell of sea salt stings at her cheeks, telling Peregrin they are eerily close to the surface. She prays once more to Elune,, hoping they land in one piece.

-

With a jarring thud that shook her entire body, Peregin’s eyes snap open right as she is tumbling off the side of Tyran’s back, letting out a fairly unlady like yelp. “Ack!”

She lands on the grassy shore of the island, getting a face full of grass and sandy earth. Slowly righting herself, she spits out the intruding plant life, using the back of her hand to wipe the excess off. While she is trying to clear the rest of the smuck from her face, she hears a familiar voice call out to her. 

“Perry?? Perry is that you?” Peregrin looks up to see up on the shore by some refugee tents and a makeshift field hospital, Stella. Perry’s eyes goes wide as she shakily gets up on her feet and goes to meet up with her teary eyed friend. Stellanoctis hugs her friend tightly, crying in relief. 

“Stella! Oh Elune, are you okay dear? Thank the stars,, is your family here too?” Perry tries to ask, but as soon as she says the word family, Stella’s eyes well up with more tears, her shoulders shaking. “Oh no,, no no no Stella, oh you poor thing, I am so so sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, sorry sorry,,” Perry hugs Stella tight to her, the young druid feeling that familiar pit in the bottom of her stomach, only able to guess how horrid Stella must feel.

The duo kept holding onto each other, weeping into each other’s shoulder. They do not take note of when Khadgar walks over to where General Shandris Feathermoon and her aides were, trying to keep them from launching an attack on Tyran before he had the chance to transform back.

Peregrin manages to recover herself first, using her hands to wipe away her tears and Stella’s. “I am sorry Stella, I’m so sorry. We, sniff, we need to uhmm, we need to help others right now. Come on, come on,, up on your feet.” Peregrin was channeling some of Khadgar’s words through herself and to Stella, know it helped her numerous time when she herself was extremely low.

Stella gets back on her feet, using her sleeve to wipe off some of the tears on her face “O,okay,, but,” Stella blinks a few times as she looks over to where the giant Red Dragon was sitting patiently on the beach, “who is,, that then?”

“Oh. yeah,, him. Uhhh,,” Peregrin smiles sheepishly, fidgeting with her fingers slightly, while Tyran takes this moment to shapeshift himself. Khadgar frantically trying to calm down Lady Feathermoon and the guards, fearing the worst case scenario as the Night Elves pulled out their weapons. However,,

“Alah darnana dor, Shandris’do. It has been many years since we last spoke,,” the robed High Elf form of Tyran appeared on the beach, walking confidently towards Shandris and the group, much to the gawking of Shandris. 

“L,Lord Tyranistrasz!” Shandris rushed over to the large Dragon, while Stella more or less was in a state of confusion and mixed awe, whispering to Perry “Wait,, as in,, the first husband of,, the Life-Binder?” Perry nodded silently which made Stella go wide-eyed before, not so quietly yelling at Perry,

“You had a piggy-back ride on the King of the Red Dragons?!”

(Again, this story involves @drew-winchester ‘s OC Peregrin, and her husbando Khadgar, on a journey following the events after the burning of Teldrassil. In this part, Perry rejoins her friend (and fellow white haired druid) @kittycatkissu ‘s Stellanoctis!)

[hxghlysuspect-archive]

For the last year I've been preparing this tank. I've had issues along the way, had to scrap it. Upgraded from a 10g (which went to my daughter's betta fish who was in a 5) to a 20g high, which is what this set up is.

It was used for a quarantine tank many times when me or my mom got new fish.

And now, after the last 5 months of setting it up completely, it now has one very lucky betta.

His name is Peregin Took, but hell only be called that when I'm annoyed. Any other time it's Pippen.

He's just a baby- 6 to 8 months old MAX. Maybe an inch and a half long. Tiny thing.

Upgraded from a tiny cup on a pet smart shelf to this glorious planted kingdom which hell have all to himself.

He's been exploring since I put him in. He's definitely excited.

I'm already in love and would sell my soul for this fish xD

[breakintomyhead]
