Hi everyone!

Quick update from us.

So it is Sunday and most of you have probably watched the premiere episodes already, as have we. 😏

Nat and I have exchanged an astronomical amount of messages while watching (me to Nat because she watched first) and then later using voice notes. There was screaming involved, there were caps, too.

We have A LOT TO SAY. We are enthusiastic and excited and hey, watching these eps, being in Middle-Earth again, it felt like coming home. There’s no better feeling than that so it should tell you the vibe of what we’re going into recording with.

Yes! Our plan is to record a very snappy (mind you) pod episode encompassing our quick thoughts on the first four episodes of season 2. Then, all I can say for sure is that our schedule is going to be very irregular but at the end of the day we are committed to release the episodes on season 2 over an extended period of time similarly to how we did on season 1. We are sticking to… vibes. 🥲 And what our spare time will allow us.

Thank you to those of you who have messaged us on here, engaged on Twitter, Instagram or sent an email (Sofi, wow, again, you are a star!) with your love and support.

If you can, recommend this little passion project pod of ours to your friends so maybe word gets around and it gets more popular or something. If you can. ❤️

Also, we’re already kinda rewatching these 3 eps. This is how incredible they were and how much we missed this show!

Until soon and with lots of love,

Pau & Nat

I cannot get over the fact that in LotR:TRoP, Young Elrond is played by the same actor who played Young Ned Stark in GoT, and Old Ned Stark is the same actor who played Boromir in LotR.

Celebrimbor: the elven rings are the greatest creation in all of Middle earth.

The elven rings according to Rings of Power:

[lodessa]

Isildur tells Estrid that he never told anyone that it was his fault his mom died, but that doesn't necessarily preclude Elendil being aware of the situation.

It's possible that one or both of his other children were witnesses or someone else, or simply that he knew both his wife and Isildur well enough to at least guess at what had happened, especially with however Isildur acted in response to his sense of guilt.

Asking because, when we meet him, Elendil's faith in the Old Ways seems to have waned or be dormant, but not his faith in the Sea. Right off the bat, he defends his choice to bring Galadriel and Halbrand to Numenor with his now classic response of "the Sea is always right", so he seems to have reconciled with the force that killed his wife.

So has he accepted that the Sea was right to accept a mother's sacrifice to save her son and spared Isildur ? Did he shift blame to Isildur from the Sea? Or did he just learn to be zen about what happened to her as fate or whatever?

It’s Valentine’s Day! So to add some fluff to the Haladriel fic universe, @demonscantgothere, @scriberated, @thrillofhope and I will all be posting fics to the Haladriel Hearts Valentine’s Day Collection. Feel free to take a look at mine, an opposites attract/neighbors/co-workers/musicians modern AU with a side of bakery/coffee shop... It has it all and the kitchen sink!

…Do you think this ever came up at family dinners in Rivendell?

Morfydd Clark: Yeah, I think [Galadriel] feels so guilty because she clearly messed up kind of monumentally. It's very kind of sobering for her to be around Elrond because he knows her so well and knows all her secrets and kind of knows the depths of her mistake and betrayal really.

Robert Aramayo: I think with the two of them it runs it's like it runs so deep, the connection between them that it sort of feels undeniable. It's a love, really. The bond is really strong.

*shy knock*

Hello???

Gosh. I guess we are reporting back to duty? Haha.

We feel the obsession coming back to sweep us off our feet as we speak! Lots to unpack here but we are EXCITED as hell (and a bit anxious over lack of Bronwyn in the teaser) and we are going to get back to it soon. Now definitely SOONER rather than later, especially with the clock counting down to Aug 29th!

But, because I just can’t help it and Nat is probably chuckling at me for being predictably me, how are we feeling about the wig? 😏

Till soon!

Pau & Nat
