House of Fëanor

[lovefairymina]

(Since I've seen a lot of things about the Noldor being sharp about their language. I get a feeling they would find it attractive if their human s/o spoke fluently their language. Then I was reminded of Maglor having a voice kink in one of your posts, and then boom. )

*Maglor having teased you the whole day and you were just about to have enough*

You: *chuckles* Oh darling, you should know better than to play with someone who knows all your weaknesses and what to do exactly to make you squirm.

*Later in the day, when Maglor was seated on a couch, oblivious to your intentions as you walked behind him and wrapped your arms around his shoulder in an affectionate gesture*

You: Hey, Maka. What are you doing?

Maglor: Just reading a good book to get my mind off.

You: Interesting. What's it about?

Maglor: It's about…

You: *Gently trace your fingers at the edge of his ear with a feather-like touch*

Maglor: *shivers* …this one character with this kind of plot.

You: That's very interesting. Also, I have something to say *you hold him close as you lean close to his ear*

You: *With your breath touching his ear, you spoke in fluent Quenya* [Since you had so much fun teasing me the whole day with your silver tongue. How about we put that mouth of yours into better use… in my bed.] *you rolled his mother tongue through your lips with a grin, knowing his weakness for your voice*

His fingers slackened against the pages of his book as your words coiled around him like a spell. A sharp inhale betrayed him, his grip tightening slightly before he turned his head just enough for you to see the fire sparking in his eyes. For a moment, he said nothing, letting the weight of your words settle like molten gold in his chest. Then, in a rough voice, he murmured, “You play a dangerous game, melmë.”

His book was forgotten.

I have this hc that Sauron’s obsession with vanity led him to spend years studying Maedhros’ features and trying to emulate them. When he couldn’t get it right, the proportions always a little off, red hair never deep enough, he took his anger out on Mae and when that option was gone, tried to pull from others also renown for their beauty instead.

Fast forward a few centuries and turns out all that work wasn’t entirely useless. And Sauron knows exactly what to do with the features he was able to recreate. Weaving them into his new face, the line of Maitimo’s smile, the set of his eyebrows, the crease of his eyes, he puts just enough to be familiar, but not enough to set off any alarms.

Celebrimbor doesn’t know *why* he trusts Annatar so easily, just that he’s got a good feeling about him. The Maia reminds him of someone he can’t quite put a finger on, but it’s a good association and he doesn’t think on it too deeply. Grows to call him a brother in all but blood.

Of course we all know how that ends. And the last thing Celebrimbor sees is his eldest Uncle’s smile, a mockery of the warmth it should hold as Sauron finally ends his torture.

(Elrond, on the other hand, never saw Maitimo who used to laugh easily and play silly games with children. Only grim Maedhros. The gentle features Sauron steals are alien to him. A stranger with too many familiar features he can’t quite place, twisted the wrong way, leaving him deeply unsettled. It’s why he immediately tells Gil Galad to send Annatar away, hiding trembling hands in his sleeves.)

I read “Silmarillion” again and was once again captivated by the characters and story

Nerdanel; the wise

Purple Iris: the Purple Iris symbolizes wisdom, strength, and courage, and like most other purple blooms, they also represent royalty.

Lilies: Lilies are usually known for symbolizing purity, grace, and life´s circle, they are associated with feminity, rebirth, and motherhood, however, at times they can symbolize sorrow in vanity and are used often when mourning or loss for their serene look.

A redraw of my two-year-old Nerdanel drawing from my two-year-old DTIYS as it popped up again and I´ve gotten a lot better and have a new tablet now so I had to redraw it as the first thing I drew/finished there :)

Just something about how Elrond is described as "kind as summer." You can't go wrong with that. Elrond is amazing.

But the history of Elrond is so fucking tragic — if anything, Elrond should be turned evil, like Fëanáro or Maedhros.

But he didn't.

He lost his parents, his brother, his foster parents, his wife, his daughter, etc... and yet he's an amazing person.

Elrond being one of the bad guys would have been understandable. But he chose to be a good person who helped maintain the stability of Middle-Earth.

Despite all his pain, grief, losses, etc — Elrond chose to stay patient and prevent more people from experiencing the same losses he did.

This just shows one of the many different outcomes of pain that Tolkien presents; rather than going mad, like Fëanáro, or becoming an anti-hero, like Maedhros, or even disappearing, like Maglor, Elrond chose to stay sane and be a hero for Middle-Earth.

You gaze at the small scars and calluses on your hands, remnants of battles you've witnessed, and marks from wielding your blade. You trace each one with your fingers, feeling a wave of nostalgia wash over you. 

"You seem lost in thought," Maedhros began.

"Just reflecting on all the battles I've seen. Though I wish they had never happened, they remind me of how far I've come and everything I've survived," you explained.

"You have a positive view of your scars. I wish I could share the same view on my own,” he said. 

You glanced at him. "Why’s that?" you asked.

"Some of my scars did not come from battles but from mistakes by my hand. They remind me of those mistakes and what I could have done to prevent them,” he said, gazing at the scars on his hand. 

"I disagree," you said, extending your hand. 

"May I?" you asked. 

Maedhros looked at you curiously but then placed his larger hand in yours. You begin to inspect his hand, feeling the calluses and cuts that are almost akin to yours. Maedhros watched you intently, and you could feel his hand nearly shying away as if your fingers were made of feathers. 

"This hand has seen its share of battles. Scars might seem like disfigurements, but it's common knowledge that you never leave a battle unscathed. Not even the greatest swordsman walks away without a cut or two. There’s nothing to be ashamed of, really," you explained.

"You survived a terrible ordeal, yet instead of giving up, you stood your ground and proved to Morgoth that he did not succeed in breaking you. That’s the mark of a strong warrior," you added.

Maedhros released a small huff. "You give me too much credit. I am scarred and do not possess the same beauty as the rest of my kin," he replied.

"Your scars will be scars if you let them. Regardless of how you got them, they haven’t stopped you from being gentle with me or the children. I believe that is a true sign of strength because many would rather succumb to their suffering than find the strength to be gentle with others. You even learned to fight with your less dominant hand, which makes you even more remarkable," you commented.

You then interlaced your fingers with his, holding his hand gently. "Don’t think any less of yourself. I see your worth not in your appearance, but in your heart and your strength to be who you decide to be, not what others expect of you," you said, placing a soft kiss on the back of his hand before holding it against your cheek, feeling its warmth while gazing into his eyes with a small grin. "And if I may be bold, in the eyes of another warrior, your scars don’t make you any less desirable," you said, your eyes glinting with small mischievousness and sincerity. 

His hand stilling in yours as he processed your words. His scars, often a source of silent torment, felt lighter beneath your touch. His thumb ghosted over your knuckles before he let out a quiet chuckle. “You have a dangerous way with words,” he murmured. “And an even more dangerous way of making me believe them.”

May I present... Caranthir the Dark.

Also, this was so incredibly satisfying to draw, even if it did take just a bit longer than my previous works. Plus it's my best digital piece as of now, and I'm incredibly proud of it!😁

morning routines ft. the firstborn sons and their parents (who turned out WAY more lovey dovey than i intended omg)... i was inspired by this cute art from @/Worvies on twitter and decided to use it as a chance to draw how locked in i think they'd be when it comes to getting ready in the morning HAHAHA

in terms of who wakes up earliest to latest i think it'd go: fingolfin -> finrod -> nerdanel -> earwen -> feanor -> maedhros -> anaire -> fingon -> finarfin !!! i also never thought abt it before but. elves with makeup!!! i wonder what the various trends in valinor would be and how long theyd last....
