@xagan made one for sean so i had to make these <333

[quodekash]

i think namo and eugene should kiss

[apparently-i-am-an-adult]

I remember this taking me by surprise the first time I watched it. Legitimately came out of left field for me. Girl has had like two scenes before this and Sean previously mentioned they were just friends when being teased by the gang. Guess it took it at face value? Didn’t see any chemistry between them in their previous scenes? Even when she slept over, I saw it more as just “really reliable friend in times of trouble” vibes, not necessarily romantic vibes.

Don’t worry, though, this girl has got it handled.

Not trying to rag on Sean, but I guess it’s the same kind of situation as Eugene: girl can do better. I get why people have Namo, Nuch, and Eugene as a power couple. These girls have the emotional maturity and the braincells that none of the guys do.

a happy NAYEON after seeing MOMO & MINA ❤️‍🩹

[tripadvisor-said-fivestar-mordor]

Námo: If you’re an elf tragically in love with someone from another species, say ‘aye’ Beleg: Aye Luthien: Aye Arwen: Aye Finrod: Aye Finduilas: Aye Legolas: not tragic lmao but aye

[likesdoodling]

Guess what I just finished ehehehe >:D

Oh yeah- the 'I see your wife' was a bit hard to do so I just replaced it with the next best 'murderer plus innocence' parallel I could think of-

(and the tags I got to cover the last few bits got cut off, so I have decided to include the last minute of dramatic commentary here instead-

:(:( Alas alack~ poor Finrod-

Oh look it's Gondolin! And Maeglin too, fancy that. Wonder why he's there, anyway, moving on-

Fingon gets some more screentime, -and no. I am not naming the Balrogs involved. They don't deserve it >:(

And after that it's pretty self explanatory.

I mean.

If you know who Feanor and his sons are you probably get what's going on here. :'(

Something neat about... Indis

This may ruffle some feathers since some people apparently see Indis as this conniving, evil stepmom scheming in the background from the beginning, but I gather the exact opposite from the text.

I actually think Indis handles herself as well as she could have, dealing with her (at the time) unrequited feelings without hostility or bitterness. As I stated in another recent post, sometimes things aren't ideal or going perfectly and loving a person who is already with someone else is yet another example of that. It takes a lot of inner strength and balance to handle oneself in non-destructive ways in emotional situations like these.

To me, Indis is a woman who possesses a lot of maturity, patience and grace and you can see these very traits coming through in the greatest and most renowned of her descendants.

I also love that she's a runner and singer and like to think she's an athlete. You go queen!

Indis deserves happiness and prosperity and I hope she's dating Míriel now.

Thank you to @oakenting for suggesting Indis!

“Something Neat About” (SNA) is a mini series on my blog where I say something I like/find cool/interesting/neat about various Tolkien (right now mostly Silmarillion) characters. 

Please feel free to add your own thoughts/ideas/headcanons about the character in the comments/tags, link fanworks you or others made, show pictures of your pet you named after them, whatever you want to share; my only request is to keep it positive.

More of SNA for your perusal here. You’re also welcome to message me/send asks about characters you’d like to hear about :)

*thinks about Írmo really hard*

Yknow it occurs to me I’ve never posted námo here either which is not necessary but provides context/thematic cohesion for why írmo has so many fucking eyes. Because I draw námo with so many fucking mouths

[lordgrimwing]

okay, i know about all the aus in your post except the Art Therapy in Mandos one. can you pleeeease enlighten me? :>>>

Ok, it's very simple and here goes.

Art Therapy in Mandos

So, we all know how Feanor must constantly be working on projects and doing things or else he might actually die (exaggeration), right? Well, filling your mind with projects etc isn't great for having time to meditate upon your actions and heal from traumas in Mandos, but Namos can clearly see that the traditional 'meditate in silence and isolation' that works for most of the eldar is not going to cut it for firey Feanor.

Namo comes up with a new kind of healing method for Feanor that involves 12 crayons and one of those adult meditative coloring books. He gives these items to Feanor without explanation.

Feanor hated it so much. It's so dull and pointless to color everything in, but he has to be perfect and the best so he colored the first several books in shocking realism given the limited colors, staying exactly inside the lines. Every time he finishes, a maia comes and takes the book away and replaces it with another.

He doesn't understand the purpose of this ridiculous assignment, the maiar hardly speak to him, and Namo won't answer his shouted demands for answers. They just keep giving him fresh books and replenishing the crayons and the only explanation Feanor can come up with is that he somehow isn't completing the books the way the Vala wants him to.

'Namo is unreasonable' he seethes to himself as he creates yet another near exact replica of Lorien's gates. Never have any coloring books been competed with such exacting attention to detail and symmetry using only the waxy crayons given to children who have yet to earn the right for better tools. 'The Valar are unreasonable,' he spits as he recreates a swan boat with the lightest touches of yellow and orange and pink and white.

So it continues until one day Feanor has screamed himself nearly hoarse at the absent Vala. Why persist in playing this game when Namo makes it clear he will never accept his work and will always make him do it again, he wonders. He takes up the red crayon. It has no purpose here in this picture. He drags it across the page anyway, crossing over the lines with an out of place streak of red.

Somehow, through all of this, Feanor learns to let go of his perfectionism, accepts that his ability to create wonderful and miraculous things does not determine his worth, etc etc, healing and understanding, etc etc.

Eventually, Namo lets him out of Mandos :)

Ask me about fics that live rent-free in my head!
