...gollum dodged a great eagle?

how can one character be both the most competent and incompetent character in lotr

>dodges great eagles and elves and aragorn and who knows what else >walks right into mordor and gets tortured

>finds and retrieves the one ring when sauron couldn't >immediately dies

(I am accepting LOTRO as unassailable canon at least for the purposes of this stupid post)

@lothrandir brother you can't just put random posts in your mouth!! it's very bad for you

[blazemourn]

My headcanon on what men of Arda can do with their gift that's given by Eru :

Shift realities :

Men's fëar are completely unbound to the world of Arda so I have this idea where when they die and exit the cycles of that world then they can try and live in new realities and timelines because of the fact that their fëa isn't imprisoned just like how the elves and their fëa are. I believe that they can enter a plane of never ending existence where there are billions and billions of alternative timelines and multiverses that they can enter into and even live there for as much as they want, some even being alternative versions of Arda itself.

Astral projection :

Again, this is because of their free fëa. I personally like to think that they are capable of transferring their fëa into another plane or space even if they're still alive but maybe in a little more strict way than compared to the men who have already died and exited Arda. Elves are extremely spiritual but I think their spirituality just means them thinking they are meaningful and being blissful and loving Arda. Not being able to actually enter another realm with their spirit. I also headcanon that when men are astral projecting their fëa freely starts to float and goes higher and higher but when elves try to do that their fëar get hit by an invisible wall and fall back to their hröar.

Control over their dreams :

Just like how everything goes back to men's different and interesting type of fëa I have this headcanon that because their fëa is completely free then they can control their dreams or travel to different places in their dreams if they are trained enough and know what to do. They can't be controlled by the Valar or anyone so I highly doubt that Irmo Lórien would be able to stop them from doing such a thing. I also believe that if they're trained, men can even enter each other's dreams and talk to each other or deliver messages when they feel the need to.

High emotional pain tolerance :

We all know that elves never forget anything and when it comes to emotional pain they overthink a lot because of it and suffer a lot, maybe even for thousands of years. Men on the other hand are extremely chill and easy going when it comes to emotional pain and it doesn't affect them as much and they may feel sad for maybe a decade if very deep, at least in Arda. I like to think that just like how elves are physically stronger, men are emotionally stronger and grief and sorrow doesn't kill them like it how it does the elves.

High level of inner peace :

Men are very chill and forgetful when it comes to emotional pain as I said. Because of this, I believe that they also have a great inner peace inside of them unlike elves who are still mourning for the sorrows of their last ages. This however doesn't mean that men are peaceful as we know that they're very ambitious and may even try to attack each other's territories. But inner peace and peace aren't the same and when talking about inner peace I mean the fact that men are usually unaffected by grief and regret and they forget it after a few years and their hearts aren't heavy like the hearts of the elves.

Hope you enjoyed!

Special Adventure -Legolas

Summary: Legolas and y/n decide to go on a spontaneous adventure

Notes: THIS IS FOR MY FRIEND BELLE ITS HER BIRTHDAY TMRW (in almost an hour for her as i’m writing this) SAY HAPPY BIRTHDAY BELLE

also let’s pretend none of the plot happened and all the characters just exist as besties bc i said so BC I SAID SO😡

and ik legolas wasn’t in the hobbit book but he was in the movie LETS FOLLOW THE MOVIE FOR THIS ONE GUYS

i totally made literally most of this up just roll with it

The sun was shining perfectly through the forest. it was golden and beautiful. y/n raced through the forest on her horse, her hair flowing through the wind as she laughed. “Your going to slow!” she called, grabbing the reigns of her horse as she jumped over a river. A blur ran up to her, pulling up right next to her. “hello princess” Legolas smirked at her, his arrows bouncing on his back as the horse ran forward.

y/n leaned forward, speeding faster. as y/n saw the edge of the forest she jolted to a stop. “i win” she smiled proudly, as legolas stopped with her. “of course you did” he said, hopping off of his horse. y/n followed in suit. “where exactly are we going Legolas?” y/n asked, stepping on rocks to cross a stream. “Where ever the forest wants us to go y/n” he says, jumping across the river with his bow in hand. y/n giggled as legolas slipped and fell into the small stream. y/n couldn’t breath due to how much she’s laughing.

as she began to be able to breath more, she reached her hand out to pull legolas up, that was her first mistake. Legolas pulled her down into the water into his arms, laughing as she squealed. as the two lay in the water and against the bank, laughing and joking in each others arms, having too much fun to watch to stand up and keep moving.

the sound of horses and talking from the outside of the forest coming in interrupted the goofing off between the two elves.

both of the elves shot up in instinct, drawing their hands to their weapons. “What was that?” y/n asked. Legolas crouched down, putting his hand up towards her as he walked behind a tree. “I think it’s man” he whispered, his arrow still nocked. y/n stepped backwards, cracking a stick. she looked towards the intruders, only seeing a tall man in a dark pointed hat. The men on their horses looked towards us, immediately looking as if they pulled out their swords in fear of an ambush, hopping off their horses and exploring towards the two

Legolas shot an arrow in the opposite direction to throw the men off course and grabbed y/ns hand. He darted towards the horses with y/n following suit, gripping tight to his hand. she laughed as they fled from the mysterious group of people once she realized what she saw.

the two jump onto their horses, and y/n stopped legolas as he tried to run back towards rivendell. “Legolas,” she was in a fit of laughter as she realized how scared she had gotten which in turn put legolas into attack and protect mode.

“y/n? we have to get back i don’t want you getting hurt”

“it was gandalf!” she said, giggling. legolas smiled, playfully pushing

y/ns shoulder. “y/n” he shook his head. “you had me thinking they’d hurt you!” he grabbed the reigns of his horse and turned towards the way they just ran. “no, send the horses back i have an idea” she speaks, jumping off her horse and climbing into a tree.

legolas followed in suit, following y/n through the forest. as they got to the trail, hiding themselves in the trees. Gandalf stopped, putting his hand up so everyone else followed in suit. “someone’s watching us” he speaks, y/n leans over, grabbing onto a branch for stability.

gandalf never looked back towards the two, only looking forward. “come out young ones” he speaks, a light hearted laugh following through. “is someone here to kill us gandalf?” bilbo asks, shaking with fear.

“no, just two makers of trouble” he speaks, and as he does so, y/n gracefully jumps on the back of bilbos horse. he lets out a girl like scream, and legolas takes that as his que to jump infront of bilbos horse. another girly scream. y/n jumped off the horse, running up to greet gandalf.

the two elves had their fun, scaring the adventure less hobbit. but they had both agreed to allow the group to have their journey.

y/n had decided she wanted to go back to rivendell, after the two had ran through the forest, play fighting and enjoy the company of the other. y/n had grown tired, adventuring with her love.

years ago, legolas’ father had made a deal with y/ns father. legolas and

y/n had grown up together. they had been adventuring the forest every day since they could run. y/ns father had promised y/n to legolas and they were to be married. in a rare case, instead of hating their parents for betrothing them to someone that wasn’t their love, legolas and y/n had always loved each other, and arranged marriage or not y/n and legolas would still have fallen in love and eventually married.

it was elven tradition for the parents to pick the spouses of their children, and it was pure luck that the two had been in love.

back in rivendell, y/n sat on legolas’s bed, her feet draped over it as he spoke to his father. “The wedding is soon legolas”

“i know father” he smiled, not angered or sad. he was happy and excited. “i’m glad you love her son” legolas nodded. “i’m glad you picked her for me, or i would’ve picked her myself” he said, in all honesty.

legolas’ father smiled. “i respect that” he told his son, placing a hand on his shoulder. “treat her right, she’s a sweet girl. like family to us” y/n smiled as she eavesdropped on her love and his father.

when legolas closed the door, he sat next to y/n on the bed. “melin le (elvish for i love you) legolas” she spoke, he placed his hand on her leg. “melin le y/n. my princess”

You're all wrong he's a pet bilby Bilbo bought while drunk on mead

His name is Bilby Baggins and he loves eating baked goods

i read the hobbit in 3rd grade and i thought it was really lame. however i liked bilbo baggins for some reason and i was fully convinced he was some sort of rabbit/mouse thing until i saw the lotr movies and was really, really confused

Someone called me a "Blorbo" earlier. it sounds like a hobbit name, did they just call me short?

[darksideofthemamon]

I got tagged by @radellama ! Thanks, Rads!

1. why did you choose your url?

I thought it sounded catchy ^^" I'm honestly not good at thinking about these things. Titles too.

2. any sideblogs? if you have them name them and why you have them.

I have 3!

@janusofguardia for my Chrono Trigger AU (Janus gets taken in by Guardia instead of the Mystics)

@lila-chantilly for my Kingdom Hearts OC/s

@the-journey-was-the-point for all Tolkiem-related things, including OC's and LOTRO!

3. how long have you been on tumblr?

Uhh 5 years? I only started in 2019 ^^" I wasn't here for its heyday

4. do you have a queue tag?

No! I don't really queue, I only sometimes schedule posts for the timezone.

5. why did you start your blog in the first place?

I wanted to post my art and interact with fandoms! I ended up being active here the most because it's really fandom-centric, accommodates a lot of post types (art, long text posts, asks), and isn't subject to the same algorithms and commercialism the other social media sites are. It's much quieter here, and the only ones who stay are like-minded people, so I really like it. It's all about having a space to creatively express myself.

6. why did you choose your icon/pfp?

It's my KH OC! She has her arm in brace, and I recovered from an injury just last year, so I felt it represented my inner self.

7. why did you choose your header?

I wanted to show off my best works XD

8. what’s your post with the most notes?

Fanart of Asami Sato from Legend of Korra!

9. how many mutuals do you have?

Uhhh I don't know how to count that... I'm gonna guess 10-15????

10. how many followers do you have?

89!

11. how many people do you follow?

311!

12. have you ever made a shitpost?

Hmm I think I sort of did? It's a joke on the ending of KHUX, and one of the few times I've drawn Eraqus

13. how often do you use tumblr each day?

Often! I check it all the time, honestly ^^"

14. did you have a fight/argument with another blog once?

Nope! And anyway I'd be happy to block.

15. how do you feel about ‘you need to reblog this’ posts

b y e

16. do you like tag games?

Yeah!

17. do you like ask games?

Yeah, I also sometimes reblog prompts in my sideblogs!

18. which of your mutuals do you think is tumblr famous?

Hmmm I'm not sure if any are? @_@

19. do you have a crush on a mutual?

Nope!

20. tags

ok so no pressure obviously!

@undeadrabbit-reblogs @loremastering @angbands-last-hero @tambermizukiart @chirithy564 @saephrond @lanthanum12

all the cool kids have pinned posts and i’m at least a year late so let’s go

old enough to have a full time job with office besties so make of that what you will

i cosplay sometimes, i rarely share photos but if i do it’s #aj cosplays

i play dnd sometimes

blog content

bg3 / i said i wasnt going to get involved and then i did. i rotate astarion around my brain like a microwave meal and i think we should be allowed to kiss raphael actually. dyn is my main tav who is in a mlm (monster loving monster) relationship with astarion and sometimes halsin. the rituals are complex and unknowable.

lotro | rop | lotr / my dragon age/mass effect braincells are nuclear resistant. my lotr braincell is what one might call a tardigrade. she’s eternal infinite forever enduring the ages of this world alone etc. etc. i play lotro on arkenstone and i think rings of power is great. that’s all. 

critrole / im a c3 ho and im not interested in reading your meta on why caleb is autistic actually bc ive decided he is anyway and that’s enough for me thank u

destiny / dont get it twisted i play this game for saint-14 only

ac origins -  valhalla / bayek and eivor have me in a chokehold and i spent about 6 months writing frenzied alexios / thaletas content in between those two protags so you could say i enjoyed this trilogy more than anything else ac has ever given me

dragon age - mass effect / they get to share a category like a get-along t-shirt bc these are the only two braincells in my head that will survive a nuclear winter and this is the only way i can control them. i have many ocs. i always want to talk about them. i sent shepard to andromeda, and i rewrote thedas to cope with the harrowing ordeal of facing an egg as my villain. bioware will not let me rest.

ocs - dnd / i play in 2 campaigns, i dm one of my own. blorbo from my dnd is usually referring to maahes, he is an acquired taste so your mileage may vary in how far u can go before u simply want to block his tag. the good news is i wholly support curated dashboard experiences. the bad news is all of my ocs are equally hot messes of morality.

worldbuilding / you may see mentions of myridos; this is my homebrew world and eventual setting for some novels that i’d like to publish one day.

im not above shitposts or random stuff that makes me go hehe (fruity) and i generally do not engage in tumblr activism as a rule. you’re unlikely to find Real World Stuff˜ here unless it involves cymru or annibynaeth i gymru. i tag fandoms and art, i do not tag specific characters with enough consistency to make it safe for blocked tags. i’m open to dms/asks if you want a specific tag blocked - i can’t guarantee i’ll say yes, but i’m v nice about it i promise.
