#and there's nothing for hobbits

[thenotoriousscuttlecliff]

One hope I have for S3 of Rings of Power is the writers really start to streamline all the major plot threads. Although it has its charms, I do think the Stranger/Nori plot is something that should be incorporated into one of the other plots next season or just cut altogether. It feels like something that is there more out of obligation than anything else, that this is Tolkien so there needs to be hobbits and wizards somewhere, and while I don't really have an issue with that on principle, the fact is they haven't really found a way to work it into the show well and now it just seem to take screentime away from more important plot threads, namely Númenor. That one has really suffered this season, not getting the focus it really needs despite being far more important to the overall story being told. I also feel like the Southlands plot has run its course, but I think they've stranded Isildur there to set the stage for the founding of Gondor.

felt the need to draw thorin and bilbo in suits

Interesting that Gloin specifically remembers Legolas being an asshole to him bc that makes his presence in the Hobbit retroactively canon book-wise. Also interesting that his lack of appearance in the Hobbit (probably due to not existing as a character yet) could be in-universe chalked up to Bilbo never meeting him OR straight up forgetting him. Legolas walks up to Old Bilbo in Rivendell like “hey dude remember me? Thranduil’s kid?” And Bilbo’s like “oh…. hey…… you…..” while sweating bullets

Got a bit silly w it, but in my defence, I am sleep-deprived and have been writing a fanfiction for the last 5 hours.

Gandalf and his two big personalities

Friend reminded that something was missing from my last post

[butter-n-breadrolls]

Bullroarer Took beheaded the goblin king and saved the shire, then his nephew Bilbo Baggins beheaded Azog the Defiler and saved the dwarf king. That’s what happed, case closed. Then he married the dwarf king, the end

[the-witch-of-woods-beyond]

no because actually what do you mean that thorin knew there was a thief and didn’t even think to consider bilbo, the guy they literally hired to be their burglar, for a moment and instead confided in him above the dwarves he’d known for so much longer and what do you mean he closed his eyes and had to physically turn away when he found out it was in fact bilbo that stole the arkenstone because he was in tears? like what excuse me no just no that’s not allowed.

a whole page of filis! (+ bonus kili because if they’re apart for too long they’ll get separation anxiety)

[henry-or-something]

shout out to bilbo baggins frfr. never have I ever read fanfiction of someone more mischaracterized and uwu-ified than him.

[louis-wain2electricboogaloo]

I don’t know who the fuck Bimbo and Thorin but I agree with tumblr that they should kiss

[silvantransthranduiltrash]

What if Legolas was in Rivendell at the same time Thorin and his company were and just… decided to tag along for a bit bc hey, he was going in that direction (home) anyway, might as well have some company?

Just imagine

A dwarf: *comments about the elves’ vegetarianism after they’ve left rivendell*

Legolas: you do know they were fucking with you right? Elves are not vegetarian.

The dwarves: *suprise pikachu face*

———————————————

The company +bilbo+legolas: *getting chased by orcs Again*

Legolas: i though ya’ll said this was supposed to be a secret quest?!

——————————————-

The group: *breaks into beorn’s house to hide*

Beorn: why are there dwarves in my hou- LEGOLAS WHY ARE YOU HERE?! I’M NOT HIDING YOU FROM YOUR SIBLINGS AGAIN!

Legolas: ✌️

———————————————

Gandalf: *leaves the group at the edge of mirkwood forest while speaking cryptically *

Legolas:

Legolas: i know you’re going to do something that’ll piss me off, i can feel it.

———————————————

Legolas, rolling up next to bilbo: so, thorin huh?

Bilbo: *chokes on his own spit*

Legolas: no, i get it. It’s the beard right?

———————————————

The dwarves: *get captured by the silvans*

Thranduil, to legolas after having interrogated thorin: i don’t suppose you’ll tell me what’s going on?

Legolas: nope

Thranduil: is this one of your whims again?

Legolas: mmmmaaaaybe

Thranduil: *sigh* nothing i do will change the situation, will it?

Legolas: given their head strong personalities, i highly doubt it.

———————————————

Bilbo: *gets the one ring*

Legolas: I pretended i do not see.

———————————————

Before the botfa

Thranduil: and you are sure you couldn’t have changed the outcome?

Legolas: knowing history and knowing how this world works, yeah, pretty fucking sure.

[dopaminetreasurehoard]

I love Tolkien's whole world - the lore, the culture, the distinct races, the mythology, the languages.

But at the end of the day, I fell into a deep attached love with it for one, key reason:

Hobbits.💕
