Ryan mentioning that his mind has subconsciously always thought that Shane is a solid person to rely on because he once had a dream in which Shane sacrificed his life to save him was unbelievably sweet as well as insanely hilarious in ways that I cannot explain.

some lesbian thoughts on elrond & galadriel

The dynamic between Elrond and Galadriel, despite being central to the show, sometimes feels under-appreciated in the fandom. Like many relationships in TROP, it doesn’t easily slot into a single category. It’s not merely one of friendship or kinship or mentorship

It’s not romantic, but it is emotionally intimate—and that seems to trip a lot of people up, even before 2x07. We’ve always appreciated how emotionally open Galadriel and Elrond are with each other, particularly given how guarded Galadriel is with most other characters.

She and Elrond have a long history prior to their reunion in the first episode, and during the course of the show they rely on each other as they navigate disappointment and loss, both personal and as relates to elven-kind.

They don’t always see eye to eye, but even when Elrond feels hugely betrayed by Galadriel’s choices, it doesn’t erode the love between them.

They’ve been separated during their respective darkest moments, but find solace and healing in each other’s presence. They bring light into each other’s lives, and together will be instrumental in banishing the rising darkness.

One of the strengths of Tolkien's work, and one of the reasons fans (including queer fans like us) return to these stories time and again, is the focus on platonic bonds that defy societal norms through the strength of their intimacy and commitment.

Of all the relationships we've seen on the show so far, Galadriel and Elrond embody this wonderful category-defying emotional intimacy most of all.

nona the ninth but as a podcast consisting solely of cam and pal’s tape recordings

Before every episode of Malevolent I think to myself. Man, there's no way his life could get worse. Surely Arthur, he's been through it all. Caused most of it. What hasn't happened to him at this point. Then Harlan says watch this. Your wife never loved you and thought you were a dead end. Also your father in law is dead. Because of you.

And then laughs at my horrified expression.
