I think Fëanor would get along well with Men.
He’s an inventor right. A mad scientist amongst the elves and no doubt believes they grow stagnant far too easily with how little innovation there is, I mean look what happens after he’s killed. Not only in terms of *things* but also with art and general creativity. No wonder he felt stifled. No wonder he was so desperate to leave.
Then along come these ‘lesser beings.’
And they might be physically weaker, prone to sickness, and die quickly. But there’s a *spark* within them to learn. To constantly push boundaries and even break them. Elves’ immortality makes them slow to progress, whilst he sees the race of Man working so fervently, so passionately that in the span of a human lifetime they manage to create and advance more than the elves have over literal Ages.
Like I’m thinking of Fëanor in the modern day seeing spacecraft and electricity and chemistry and forms of communications the Eldar can’t even begin to imagine. I honestly think he’d thrive to the point he wouldn’t even want to return to Valinor (AU anyone? 😂)
What the elves call ‘mad’, humans see as opportunity. As a challenge. Just like him.
But even in ME canon, I think he’d have a lot of fun working with them, just like he’d have a lot of fun working with Dwarves. And they’d create incredible things together.

I need a Silmarillion adaptation that really pushes for Feanor to be the protagonist so that when he abruptly dies five scenes in the people who didn't know will get blindsided.

Something especially sad (because I relate to it to some degree) about Fëanor is the fact that his ideal response to traumatic stuff in his life is basically "time travel fix-it" and he can't see any other way. For example: he can't try to build a relationship with his half-siblings and accept that they're a guiltless party in his suffering, no, he can only accept to go back in time and avoid Finwë's remarriage, but unfortunately that's not possible so hate is the only way. But that's no way to live.

Fëanáro: I can’t be the best at everything if I never give violence a go.
#There’s actually thought behind this#Fëanáro is so bad at his character archetype that he dies halfway through his epic quest#It’s like if Odysseus ran headfirst into scylla#Man you got through so much and then just died what’s that about#But it’s a very very deliberate move on tolkiens behalf#Most of which I don’t really understand#But looking at how it’s Fëanáro who creates basically the best things ever#Fëanáro who then grows spiteful and jealous?! (the role usually reserved for the lesser brothers like the children of Israel)#Fëanáro who is simultaneously his peoples saviour and destruction#Because he’s FEANARO come on he can’t settle for less. Must Do It All.#His character is specifically so incredible because he was such an idiot#He was also such an idiot because he was so incredible#You feel me#Anyway#Feanaro#feanor#feanaro curufinwe#Silmarillion incorrect quotes#Silm incorrect quotes#Silm shitpost#Ailm#The silm#Silmarillion#The silmarillion#the silm fandom#silm fandom#tolkien#jrr tolkien#tolkien legendarium

Feanor and Nerdanel for Day 7 of @feanorianweek
Nerdanel likes to tease Feanor. This time, however, Feanor isn't amused as he usually is (your choice if it's because of his brothers)
NB : Feanor and Nerdanel look a little different from my previous art of them because they both are younger here. I like to think that even if elves doesn't age, they show some change in passing from youth to mature age.

Do we know when Miriel changed her mind?
Surely after the death of Finwë, but when exactly? Wouldn't it make some dark kind of sense if she started feeling better and less in despair at the very moment when Feanor died?

Y/N: *sneaks into Feanor's room at 3 am and wakes him up*
Y/N: Oh no, I didn't have any weird questions. I just wanted to tell you you are my earth and my sky, my water, wind and fire, and that I love you now and forever.
Blinking the sleep from his eyes, a bemused smile crept onto his lips. Gently, he propped himself up on one elbow, the shadows of the room dancing around him. “You dare disturb my slumber with such nonsense?” he teased, his voice low and playful. “But if I am your world, then you must know I am not easily contained.”

text under the cut
I will not shatter– Each blow of the hammer will fold me into harder steel. I will not burn– White-hot flames will temper me into a stronger blade. I will not be worn away– Sanding blocks will sharpen my edges. And when swords meet again– I will be strong enough to make a dent in the soft metal.
I will be forged again in the fires of my rage.

Ok a lil hc for why Curufin is so close to Fëanor and why the twins went to Beleriand.
So idk how many of you have seen twin pregnancies, and no doubt many of you will know more than me. But the ones I have seen were *exhausting* for the mother. Constantly tired, unable to do a whole lot, usually in some kind of pain be it back, ribs from the kicking babies, legs, hips, you name it. Not to mention the nausea. Nerdanel would have been absolutely shattered for most of her pregnancy, but by this point Fëanor is confident enough (has been reassured by Nerdanel over the last five pregnancies) that he’s ok leaving her to her own devices.
What this means though is Nerdanel doesn’t have a lot of energy to spare looking after her other children. Caranthir is old enough to happily stick with his brothers or sit with his embroidery, but little Curvo is around 5/6 equivalent and is very attached to his parents. Nerdanel suddenly not being able to do much creates a distance, neither of their faults, in which Fëanor steps in. This time spent with his father shapes Curufin’s interests and personality to make him embody his mother name. Atarinkë indeed, in more than just looks.
Now this temporary distance that should’ve started to close by the time Ambarussa were two or three is furthered because now is when Fëanor and Nerdanel start getting into arguments. At this point they’re small spats at most, nothing too serious, but Curufin who’s very attached to his now primary caregiver and distanced from the other, immediately takes Fëanor’s side. Again at this point both parents are still trying to get him close to his mother again, but it’s not going well and with how heated both parents get, it’s difficult to keep disagreements behind closed doors.
Then Curvo becomes a teen and it’s his father above all else. The time for change is passing, Fëanor and Nerdanel have started to spend days apart, days in which Maedhros and Maglor often take care of the twins so their mother can have a break, and Curufin sees this as another sign his mother isn’t worthy of their family. By the time we get to the banishment to Formenos, Curvo refuses to speak to Nerdanel, and whilst his brothers still send letters and occasionally go out to meet her, he burns the letters as soon as they come.
On a side note, the twins end up very very close to their oldest brothers because of this. It’s why they decide to go to Beleriand: their brothers, their primary caregivers, are all going. So they are too. They don’t know their mother well enough to stay.
Disclaimer: I adore Nerdanel and think she’s absolutely brilliant. You have to have some guts to not only marry Fëanaro Curufinwë, but then stick to your guns and refuse to follow him. And successfully wrangle seven very skilled, very opinionated sons. She’s the best and was no doubt an amazing mother, but the way things turned out just didn’t work in anyone’s favour.
Also to still be known as ‘the wise’ after marrying Fëanor and everything he did? Insane.
Fëanor was also a great father ok. At least until Morgoth really got in his head towards the end of their time in Aman. There’s a reason all his kids followed him to Beleriand.

Feanor: Nolo, wanna commit arson?
Fingolfin: What is this strange word you've made up this time, Naro?
Feanor: Wanna set things on fire that shouldn't be?

LEMME TALK ABOUT MY FAV THEORY AMONG MY OWN THEORIES
so it is about the existence of Melkor
we all know that Feanor well is Feanor, even more paranoid than Turgon (how), so I personally think that Melkor is just a Feanor's mind creation, something that tells him in particular to beware Fingolfin. he gave it a name (Melkor/Morgoth) but he is nothing more than an hallucination he has. but for Feanor is real, is fucking real. losing a war against his own mind after he broked away from his family and his wife
also I love thinking that Fingolfin tried to help him bc he cared about him bc I love hurt and comfort but he failed really bad bc Feanor was uuuh paranoia go brrr bc I love angst
#headcanon#silmarillion#tolkien#i'm kinda crazy too sorry#feanor#feanaro curufinwe#melkor#fingolfin#hallucinations#the saddest fact is that i can partially relate this myself (except the hallucinations)#lmao
