#back on my silmarillion shitposting

"why did the ring mostly affect frodo and not bilbo who had it for a gazillion years" objectively has a textual answer but i think the best answer is that sauron just likes bilbo more than frodo

bilbo: *uses the ring to hide from his relatives*

sauron, remembering almaren: yknow. real.

Idril was blonde and Tuor was blond, but the cosmic force of Melian’s maiarin genetics prevail once again and deliver to the peredhil the same pale skin, grey eyes, and raven hair that they delivered to Lúthien, to Dior, to Elwing, and assumedly every single Dunedain down to Aragorn. The unconquerable gene will eventually rule all. This explains why introducing one (1) idiot can kill all future geniuses, and a good deal of people should take it into account.

Thingol closed his computer. He was smug. Today, he had done a great thing.

“Why do you look smug?” asked Melian. While she couldn’t break the fourth wall, unlike the author who thinks he’s terribly clever, she could point out the obvious.

“My dear,” replied Thingol, proud of himself, “today, I have done a great thing.”

“But you didn’t vacuum like you told me you would,” retorted Melian.

The Quenya Ban — aka me back at writing nonsense.

Back On My Silmarillion Shoe Bullshit

I’m so sorry but cursed casting was mentioned and there’s new shoes on the internet...

Aredhel because the big dick energy in these is monumental

Maeglin. No need to explain.

Nerdanel (anything will work when you’re up at 2 am sculpting with a 4 month old)

Nienna (IDK why, just vibes.)

literally all of the teleri

Celegorm, because he’s gotta have valinor wheelies and keep his animals with him at all times.

Fingolfin because he’s a “real man”, yk?

Ungoliant

Rochallor (I’ve been horribly enabled and it is now canon that the noldor make people shoes for their horses, change my mind)

[caenith]

But Túrin, deeming himself now an outlaw and fearing to be held captive, refused Mablung’s bidding, and turned swiftly away;

Every time I reread this chapter of the Silm/the CoH I am violently reminded how bizarre this whole scene is and how extra Turin is.

Mablung: Dude, let's just talk to the king, there are multiple witnesses, I'm sure he will just say it was a terrible accident.

Turin: NO I AM NOW AN OUTLAW

Mablung: No, just listen...

Turin: I MUST GO INTO EXILE

Mablung: 😐

[eloquentsisyphianturmoil]

once upon a a mingling shiny while I carved a statue tiny came a sound a little whiny from my chamber door

the hinges squealed a lament craven Footsteps encroached on my haven but the noise was not a raven it was Feanor

Fëanor is a crow. No I will not be taking constructive criticism

[thateviljewler]

Is this it...?

Is this how I make posts?

I feel like my granny fighting with emails... Literally dunno how to tumblr. Anyway, I'm Katriona, she/her, adult nerd. Made this account months ago to look at pretty art, but might as well make something of it.

Larp is my passion so i might post some ocs or costumes I make. Sometimes I do cosplay as well.

Currently back to Silmarillion hell. That being said, I might or might not throw my silm shitpost on here, be it memes, headcannons or whatever else.

Back in my teenage years I used to do (not only) Silm rp on instagram and am very tempted to go back to that on here (insta was toxic af 💀). I'm not a native english speaker, and though I can understand pretty much everything, I'm not that good at writing unfortunately.

I'm a Mairon kinnie so he's my main muse ig, but can do Thuri, Gothmog, Fingon, Tyelpe and Celegorm as well. I don't mind trying to write other characters, but it'll be my first time and I don't have as many headcannons for them

If anyone is willing to rp with me (1 on 1 or group, both is fine), pls hmu.

Also is there some kinda tumblr etiquette? I don't see a lot of comments on posts, is that normal on here? Which tags should I use to have reach but not litter the tag boards or whatever they're called? I'm so confused lol

[navyinks]

you know how the feanorians lived in a time when photography didn’t exist & the only way to know what someone looked like was through a portrait of them, well anyway

maglor puts the painting under the “find hot, comely singles in your area” column of the tirion times

Lord of the Rings TV Show Announcement:

Reposted to Reddit, originally posted by Jeff Bezos:

Someone in the comments said, “It’s like Sauron himself holding the sign, yet more evil.”

What are your guys’ thoughts on the latest development?

[erynalasse]

Imagine if Fingon followed the example of his father and his uncle and tacked an extra fin(wë) onto his name when he became king

If Finwë-Nolofinwë becomes Fin/golfin? Well, Finwë-Findekáno doesn’t sound horrible, but oh boy… Finfingon sounds ridiculous. No wonder he didn’t go for it.

[actuallyfingolfin]

Then Sauron sprang upon Lúthien; and she swooned before the menace of the fell spirit in his eyes and the foul vapour of his breath.

listen i know this probably is some evil maia Thing but i think it would be absolutely hilarious if this meant sauron doesn’t brush his teeth

Defending the Teleri / making fun of Tolkien’s ethnic & racial hierarchies is 100% the hill I will die on

Tolkien himself was an Eldar—and specifically a Noldor—Stan, but SOMEONE HAS TO LOVE THE TELERI.

*for the record, I’m being facetious about the 20 minutes thing but

Turtulmo

(Turtle + Ulmo)

I was bored and harrassed people on Discord for cursed ideas. @bird-with-glasses suggested to draw Turtle Ulmo with a toothed tongue, so here we are.

Colours are flashy on purpose because a moron dumped trash in the sea (i.e a silmaril) and Turtulmo accidentally swallowed it. The deep sea now has lighting 24/7, better than the Two Trees, let's bring back the Two Lamps era.

Listen, I did not cross Helcaraxë with Aredhel, carrying her hunting equipment the whole way, just to leave her lost in some shadows in Baby Spider Valley.

Glorfindel to Ecthelion and Egalmoth near Nan Dungortheb, definitely

When it comes to the legendarium, Jirt is that parent who doesn't even try to pretend that he has favourites

Elves: Engage in a war over shiny rocks for several millennia, massacre eachother on more than one occasion, frequently look down on anyone who isn't also an Elf.

JRRT: Perfection! A better people have never existed!

Humans: Get anxious because god won't elaborate on that whole only-being-'vistors'-in-the-world-and-are-doomed-to-leave-it thing. Think that's a bit ominous and feel maybe they'd like a bit of whatever fate the Elves are having.

JRRT: Ungrateful. Greedy. Volatile. Just the worst. Just get rid of them.
