Galaxy brained idea that maybe three people will get:

Feanor and Fingolfin with the Noldorin inheritance being identical to that of the Annieran rulers in the Wingfeather Saga, specifically the Throne Warden/High King set-up.

(For non-Wingfeather Saga fans: In Anniera, the crown prince/princess is the SECOND child of the high king/queen, and the eldest child becomes the Throne Warden, whose job is to protect his/her sibling from all harm/guide them in their rule. The Throne Warden is very much honored for their role, but it's made clear from birth that they will never rule.)

(For non-Silmarillion fans: Feanor is the eldest from Finwe's first wife, Miriel, and Fingolfin is his eldest son from his second wife. This is a race of immortals, so remarrying has been unheard-of before this. Feanor hates Fingolfin's guts, and after Finwe dies there's a bit of puzzlement of who actually is the king here?)

#!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#feanor #fingolfin #the wingfeather saga #silmarillion #i can't stop thinking about this #it would change LITERALLY EVERYTHING #how does feanor feel about this????#c #the only problem this would solve is the inheritance dilemma #AND A HOST OF NEW PROBLEMS ARE CAUSED #of course for this to actually mean anything findis and lalwen would have to be younger than their brothers BUT STILL #another thing is since miriel died it might have just been assumed by everyone that feanor would ALSO be the heir #as an only child #it's only when finwe remarried that that gets dispelled #for Top Drama this would be either in Beleriand for some reason or in a mortal au so the heirship means something #!!!!!!!!#will copy tags to other blog
