In the mailroom they read every letter that was sent through. And no matter the weather they always make sure Santa gets out and he gets every single last gift out. Let’s give a cheer for the elves. They do like nobody else. Working all day and all night to make your wish come alive. Making dolls, making trains, making model airplanes. Helping Santa with a smile on their face. Let’s give a cheer for the elves, hey. A cheer for the elves.

Startouched Elves can breathe in space, right?
Aaravos and Leola were in space when they faced the Startouch Elf Council, right? Am I right?
With that being said, I think tdp should have a whole episode in space or on another planet for no reason in particular. Cause that would be pretty cool.
#the dragon prince#giveusthesaga#we want arc three#startouch elves#I'm running off of like 3 hours of sleep and a couple strips of bacon#i'm going insane#tdp s7#the spoilers are making me insane#i'm going crazy#i wanted go to the panel but I'm on an island 😭#and I'm poor#someone cheer me up#please#shitpost

Thinking thoughts about those from Cuivienen and how they later treated the Valar, especially after Cuivienen was destroyed.
I imagine a foundation of sorrow and a layer of betrayal and pettiness. They had promised safety. And how did it turn out? Kin of Tata and Tatie their first leaders, slain in Valinor by the Dark Hunter from which the Valar promised protection in Valinor.
And then, the War of Wrath comes and with it the destruction of Cuivienen.
If any of those were re-embodied in Aman, I wonder if they make it a point to always turn their back to Valar and Maiar. I wonder if they only speak in the tongue they had first devised all those millennia ago and spoke in Cuivienen before time and different kindreds changed the tongue, not Sindarin or Quenya from the Great Journey's time or later. I wonder if they sing songs in their ancient tongue, songs about the beauty and unsullied health of Cuivienen every time any of the Ainur are near.
I wonder if the Valar feel any shame when those who they once looked upon in wonder and love gaze back at them with indifference or disgust.
#i am so normal about the elves of cuivienen feeling the betrayal worse than anyone in aman including feanor and co#they PROMISED safety from Morgoth and orcs. they PROMISED beautiful lands without sorrow. they PROMISED all that and down the line#decided Mogoth had played pretend well enough to warrant him probation during which he immediately killed again#returns to the east and sullies what beauty had been left. and then even from afar he manages to hurt those from cuivienen with the WoW#dont get me wrong i think the cuivienen elves knew there had to be war against Morgoth for him to be defeated. but the fact that the valar#decided not to only abandon those of beleriand for over 5 centuries before that AND once the war is won also abandon#those of cuivienen to watch their beloved lands drown without as much a warning must sting.#i want there to be a concious decision of 'you abandoned your promise to us twice why should we ever trust you again even in your own lands'#a 'you promised our people who folowed you safety. you didnt deliver. you promised us freedom from morgoth. you didnt deliver. in fact your#inadequacy and decision to let him loose made everything worse for us in the east. why should we ever listen to anything you say'#and thus a concious effort to shed association with Aman as the Valar govern it. they cant leave. the way is shut. but they can establish#a sticking to their own tongue and traditions without the interference of the Ainur. they've done enough. not enough and yet quite enough.#the avari are welcome should some be reborn.#i never know if i want those of cuivienen to be reborn in aman or fade into unexistence entirely both have merit and sexy hcs#but if any were reborn i think they would get along fairly alright with the exiles. kinslaying exiles? 50/50 depending on repentance#but anyone who does not believe the valar's words and respects their decision to not ever be associated with them is welcomed neutral-warmly#they teach them songs about cuivienen. the sweet waters. beautiful meadows. the birdsong that sounds extra cheerful. fish in abundance#and in turn they get taught songs about beleriand. bewitched forests. victorious battles. wild rivers. frothy shores.#it is seen as an honour to be taught a song about Cuivienen by the people who sat by its shores once. in their language/dialect/whatever#instead of in sindarin or quenya. some millenia into the 4th age tou have a surge of ppl speaking cuivienen dialect#it becomes a clear distinction of who still has fondness left for the valar and who would feel indifferent if they vanished suddenly.#this tag essay has gotten way too long again. sorry besties it will happen again.#tag essay longer than the fucking post???? help#tolkien headcanons

Legolas started Arwen on self-defense and weapons training.
In his defense, it’s standard practice amongst the silvans to have both self-defense and weapons training regardless of what gender you are, regardless if you decide to be a warrior or not. It never occurred to him that it’s completely different for the light elves.
He would just show up and gift arwen a bow or a sword and be like “hey, you wanna learn this cool move?” Complete oblivious to the side eyes the more traditional light elves were giving him.
It wasn’t until celebrian remarked her great-fullness of his encouragement of Arwen learning how to fight despite how uncommon such a course of action would be in their society that Legolas goes: “wait, what?”
At which point he doubles down on it and teaches Arwen even more bc “fuck the patriarchy”.
Also, he’d be divorced, disowned, demoted, and probably killed if he ever even thought that elleths were incapable or should not be warriors. The elleths in his life do not appreciate or put up with being looked down on.
#dw elrond’s cool with arwen learning how to fight too#i see arwen’s family and close family friends as having no issues with elleths fighting#but the light elves at large still hold notions against it#the light elves are more invested in gender roles#the dark elves genuinly don’t care bc they have bigger problems#lord of the rings#lotr#silmarillion#the hobbit#lotr elves#legolas#silvans#arwen#arwen and legolas are best friends#arwen will beat up douche bags and legolas will stand behind her cheering her on#legolas taught arwen how to fight#ironically this means arwen’s fighting style more closely resembles that of a silvan than any other

tbh I do find it annoying how the game pushes the evanuris as rook's gods if rook is an elf and there's no option to be like "bro I'm not dalish" about it. every time bellara comes to me handwringing about our gods and how do we deal with our history I just wanna hold her shoulders and be like. babe. They're Not My Gods. Also Chill Out.
(tho I do like it when I get to speak elvish)
#I do like the davrin solidarity during our solas gossip sessions tho. a pair of elves like ''cheers I'll drink to that''#datv lb#datv spoilers#veilguard spoilers#I'm making a pros/cons list and this is definitely on it along with some other kinda systematic/mechanical things#but overall I am having A Blast

another headcanon: finrod and fingon became truly close friends in helcaraxë. they spent a lot of time together because someone had to step up and be fingolfin's right and left hands. (fingolfin is sure he would have gone mad without them. fingon and finrod are sure they would have gone mad without each other.)
#they are both hope personified#and the kind of elves that would go around during short periods of rest just chatting with their people#cheering them up and allowing them to cry on their shoulders#and making sure they keep seeing the promise of land ahead#also if i had to pick a finwëan cousin who could have known about /rescue maedhros/ plan#i would pick finrod!#he's the only other elf who would say#sure fingon go ahead a harp and faith in inherwnt goodness of the world is enough to take on melkor#*inherent#tolkien#the silmarillion#fingon#finrod

my FAVORITE all time inane AU formula is "help something happened to santa and SOS somehow the cast of _____ has to deliver all the presents to the entire world/universe in one night"
and so now im picturing the SNW enterprise crew doing so w/kirk and Santa as some ubiquitous benevolent good tidings space entity
#santa isnt a coca cola capitalist in this au w are talking about yuletide winter spirit here#strange new worlds#christopher pike#defactor head elf: Una Chin Riley#lmao im picturing la'an like CAPTAIN there's a rottweiler in home 236#uhura is like CAPTAIN LETTERS TO SANTA ARE ARRIVING AT AN ALARMING PACE#spock is like 'quantifying persons into a dichotomous list of Naughty or Nice is illogically oversimplified - and by which metrics am I#checking such list Twice?'#and then he continues to have his Vulcan/Human personality conflict (sorry spock) but the real elves love him#christine and erica and joseph are getting smashed on Good Cheer#sam and jim and working together as Chris' on-ground backup and sams like JIM YOU CANT PUT THE PRESENT THERE UNDER CARDASSIAN CUSTOM ITS#CONSIDERED AN INSULT TO PLACE A GIFT BY A FIREPLACE#and jims on the comm like: Sam I'm Stuck In The Chimney - over

They got good hearts with the burning desire to work hard. They don’t even get tired. Never try to get a taste of the spotlight. No, they only wanna make Santa shine bright. In the workshop, making cookies and candy with Mrs. Claus while Santa’s sipping brandy. And they don’t even mind that it’s so cold 'cause they love living life in the North Pole. Let’s give a cheer for the elves. They do like nobody else. Working all day and all night to make your wish come alive. Making dolls, making trains, making model airplanes. Helping Santa with a smile on their face. Let’s give a cheer for the elves, hey. A cheer for the elves.

The curse of trying to make dúnedain men is trying to make “tall, dark haired, grey eyed” look uniquely different without being mistaken for each other
#I can’t find a faceclaim for Créa’s papa and REALLY trying to avoid making him look like Aragorn…that would be weird#I’m just frustrated I can’t find an actual persons face to match and I’m SO picky#so I hate asking people for fc’s bc I shoot them down so often…..but I also don’t really watch much tv or films to expose myself to new f#faces#I always find it interesting that people choose Richard Armirage from Robin Hood BBC as Halbarad#I totally and 100% see why and it’s a great option but he’s Not how I see him#but this isn’t about him#Crea’s papa gets curly hair tho that is a Must. créa was born to have wild curls#and that helps set their line apart LOL#but also. the tall dark haired grey eyed trope in tolkien applies to the elves too. they’re EVEN HARDER to distinguish#most of the time I look at art of elves and have to squint like this could be any elf#but. in fairness. I too squint when looking at the man characters#anyways I think her dad smiles often and it just lights up a room and he makes jokes#he always wants to cheer up his kin even tho a lot of the time he’s lonely and often Going Through things as well#so I always imagine him with a big goofy smile and Créa gets that warm sunshine personality from him

The story being so vast and having such established lore means that I can Google things like "Was there a winter celebration in Rohan" and get an actual answer so that I can think about Grima celebrating winter holiday,,,, 👉👈
#apparently in Rohan they kept the tradition of celebrating the midwinter holiday. so he has definitely been involved at least.#the elves did not though. since my s/i was raised by elves. they wouldn't know much about celebrating. but maybe....#maybe Grima sees their sorrow at being captured and tries to cheer them with holiday traditions. that would be really cute 👉👈#rain rambles#slithering sycophant#gushing
