I am proud to announce Eloise Coleman, by @fruitysimsy, as the winner of the Love On The Ranch challenge! With Albane Dubois by @spillgrand coming in close second.
-----------------------------------
After revealing the winning contestant to Asher, here is what he had to say:
Asher: I had high hopes for Eloise. I feel like we really hit it off when we first met. Though I had pretty good compatibility with the others, I felt very drawn to her. It also kinda helps that she has a tremendous love for animals. I think my biggest goal besides finding a soulmate, was to find someone who loves Tulip as much as I do; and I think El is the perfect match for the both of us.
Interviewer: El? You've created a nickname for her already?
Asher: *chuckles* How could I not? I feel like I've grown pretty close to her to call her by a nickname, y'know.
Interviewer: Well, now that Eloise has been declared the winner, when are you going to propose?
Asher: *smiles* I plan on proposing to her as soon as we land in Tartosa. There’s a beautiful beach there, and I decided to have everything, including dinner, set up there.
Interviewer: Dinner? *giggles* You don't strike me as the cooking type.
Asher: Haha, very funny. Yes, unfortunately, I never learned to cook. My dad was always away and my mom passed during childbirth. It helps knowing my soon to be fiance will be able to help me out with that *laughs*
Interviewer: How do you feel about being married and sharing your space with someone else?
Asher: I'm a little nervous, but also excited. I've spent most of my life alone, so it's all I'm used to. I feel like a change in environment and lifestyle would be the perfect chance for a new start in life. Yes, I know I have Tulip, but she's too big to cuddle with *laughs*. The loneliness gets suffocating, but I feel like Eloise is my opportunity to finally breathe.
Interviewer: That is very sweet of you.
------------------------------------
Stay tuned for Eloise and Asher's engagement post + wedding invitation announcement soon! Congrats again to the winning contestant :) And thank you to those who participated.

Leave it to the Tolkien adaptation to show a battle of the ages with literally no winning party.
the elves died and lost Eregion
the dwarves lost their king to the ring, with Durin losing (hopefully just) his friendship with Elrond (and not also his wife)
Adar has the ring for now, but he's losing his children - who are literally the one thing he's fighting for - either to death or to broken trust
even fucking Sauron isn't really going out of this (episode) as a satisfied winner, bc he still doesn't have the rings

In a previous poll, voters chose Mamma Mia! as the next show that should be performed by "former hobbits." This follow-up poll asks the obvious follow-up question.
Ian Holm has been included despite his passing as this is fantasy casting, so why not?

One Dress a Day Challenge
November: Oscar Winners
The Return of the King / Viggo Mortensen as Aragorn (King Elessar)
Year: 2003
Designers: Ngila Dickson and Richard Taylor
I think everybody knows that the awards for this movie are kind of unofficial acknowledgements of the whole trilogy retroactively, but I did want to feature something from the actual third movie. There aren't too many new costumes in it, and most of the women's costumes have been covered in other posts. But the armorers outdid themselves with Aragorn's coronation armor. The detail really shows up on the screen.
The breastplate shows the symbol of the seven stars over the white tree in flower. At the top appears to be Tolkien's own design for the crown of Gondor (see below), which was just a repurposed war helmet. The actual crown that Aragorn wears is much nicer looking, but I'm a bit surprised they deviated from the book on this. Usually they tried hard to follow the book descriptions even when it might look silly--for example, their interpretation of the "wings of seabirds" on the helmets of the tower guard. (I personally don't think they got that right, but still, they weren't afraid of looking goofy.)

DEPTH; BILBO X THORIN DRABBLE/ ONE SHOT.
The yearning for his hobbit hole in Bag-End had yet to cease; the rolling hills of the Shire calls to him on his arduous journey, for which he must ignore. A peaceful little life he had had. Most days, he tries to distract himself with thoughts of his arm chair, his dishes, second breakfast, and most importantly, tea time. 
It's easier to yearn for something he had known, rather than the man sleeping a few inches from where Bilbo sat, unblinking in the damp cave they'd found themselves in. He could not help it. It didn't matter how hard he'd tried, he found himself drawn to the King under the Mountain in ways Bilbo could never imagine before.
It is wrong, it is wrong, it is wrong, his mind tortures him in the dark; wrong, for whatever reason, didn't really matter. 
The thing that truly matters is what Thorin would think of him, if he knew. If he knew what it was exactly Bilbo thought about in the dark, how watching Thorin sleep never once bores him. In fact, Thorin has never looked more beautiful.
 His eyes are relaxed; unguarded in the safety of his dreams. A soft but still somehow smug smile on his lips. Bilbo groans.
 He's doing it again isn't he?
Bilbo is too lost in his hopeless daydreams to notice Thorin's eyelids flutter, and then open. His eyes adjust to the darkness of the cave, before they settle on Bilbo's pensive face. He doesn't speak. Not yet. Instead, he, too, takes a moment to soak in the others' appearance. To see a side of him that the others would never get a chance to. 
After all, Thorin is not blind. If it weren't for Kili's incessant teasing, and Bilbo's eyes following him everywhere, he probably would be; but he isn't. 
"It is late," Thorin says, interrupting the silence with a voice thick with sleep. "I will take over your watch. You, master Baggins, sleep." 
Bilbo nearly drops his watch in surprise at Thorin's voice, before he shakes his head. 
"No, no, don't you worry a nickle about me," he says instead, a soft smile on his face. "You need it more than I." 
Thorin snorts uncharacteristically; what have they turned into? A gallant knight and a chivalrous King? Instead of offering a reply, he moves and sits besides the master burglar; the two sit in companionable silence for quite a while. The gentle breeze floating in through the open mouth of the cave enough to comfort the two men, as their arms gently touch but neither move to pull it away. 
It's just them. No need to fret themselves with titles and confusion, of what they could or couldn't do, or whether their interaction is entirely proper. A hobbit and a dwarf; but so much more than that. 
"I'm.. sorry, Thorin," Bilbo says after a while. "I can't sit here and look at you and pretend that I don't wish to.. to.." 
"I know, Bilbo," Thorin interrupts, his blue gaze piercing into the Hobbit's eyes. He doesn't think about what he's doing, what he could change, or how this will all be perceived in the daylight hours. Thorin knows if he allowed himself to think, he would never have leaned closer, so close he could feel Bilbo's breath. "A thousand sunsets could never compare to the innocence of a first kiss." 
It's all so uncharacteristic; so Kingly of Thorin, as if he were saying it to a fair maiden in a garden, but he meant them. The words he uttered so carelessly. He meant it, and he wasn't sure what scared him the most.
 Before he can get lost in throes of doubt, he leans forward just enough and presses their lips together.

here's some more frodo propaganda, since nico got an entire paragraph and frodo only got like 3 lines:
#listen. listen. I love nico so much but he gets a happy ending #frodo does not. which is the DEFINITION of a tragic character #he can never go home again!!! he's too badly hurt!!! we set out to save the shire and it has been saved but not for me!!!! #he gives everything of himself to complete the quest and there's nothing left after!!! #vote frodo THEE tragic character (via @theartofangirling)
#okay look nico goes through some shit but he gets a canon sunshiny boyfriend at the end of it #nico came out through the darkness into a brighter future #frodo literally fast-tracked his way to heaven cuz he Could Not Shake The Darkness #frodo had to factory reset that shit #he’s probably still a tiny bit miserable with the valar okay #vote frodo. (via @falconfate)
#oh come on frodo is THEE tragic hero #i love nico with all my heart but after everything he gets happiness and a loving boyfriend and therapy #frodo is so damaged he has to LEAVE THE WORLD FOREVER #frodo sweep let's go (via @3bagshotrow)
#if frodo doesnt win this then what is the point he metaphorically kills himself at the end of lotr guys. (via @verchielmarch)
