#like i dont think we talk about this weird interconnected mix of people who somehow came together because of the ring

[ijustwannacallyoumine]

guys. the fellowship is made of of the most random people who all have weird connections 2 each other.

all the hobbits know each other (actual family)

aragorn and legolas also know each other

aragorn and legolas also know gandalf (btw.)

frodo n the other hobbits also know gandalf

legolas met gimlis father n uncle, even fought against him n stuff (LMAO DO YALL RMBR HIM CALLING GIMLI UGLY IN HOBBIT? like pls babe he doesn't know they gon be in love)

also. gimil knows about bilbo because thorin is his uncle meaning he kind of knows about frodo (n hobbits in general) too (this is canon. btw.)

n gandalf knew gimli's father n uncle n family essentially

#gandalf is a free for all

and somehow, through all of that, the least unlikely friendship ending up being one of (if not The) actual strongest is gigolas like their families n shit just hated each other so much, bad blood, even their fathers n family n shit and somehow, they ended up sailing off to the undying lands together like, we dont talk about this enough guys
