@ainurweek day 2
Curumo / The music of the Ainur
Since the begining Curumo has contemplated his role in the music. He had sung with Aule but the discord had swept him up in confusion until he could hear nothing else. Then in his desperation he joined in. He keeps this to himself. He tries to make sense of what it means for him to be marred like this and opposes Melkor even more fiercely. As he worries his thoughts take shapes of many colors.

Happy Pride day everyone!
Saruman calls himself Saruman of many colors, yet his coat never flashed any pride flag in particular… Then I decided to dye it of eight different flags for eight different sexualities.
This is rather specific and I only know about gays, trans, pans and bis, so I expect you to spill some hate/complaints on the reblogs or messages.
Hope you like it!

This is a Wander over Yonder post, but I immediately thought of Saruman of Many Colors, as he became known after joining Sauron.
He wasn't a hippy in any sense of the word. But whenever he comes up, I always end up imagining Sir Christopher Lee in a Tie Dye Cloak, playing Hacky Sack with the Palantir.
I am blanking what's the name of that guy? The evil guy who went hippie?

of many colors
(plus the white)
#saruman#lotr#love to design a before and after#the exterior is largely the same#but the black contrasting with white#becomes the white-seeming-but-actually-many colors mail

Anyone read Lord of the Rings and remember how Saruman went from Saruman the White to Saruman of the Many Colors because he started to manipulate each individual in specific ways that applied to just that person?
And his downfall was he tried to weave his web of lies and individually manipulate each person in the group from Helm's Deep, but his cunning words to Theoden made Wormtongue realize he was being lied to this whole time and he got so mad he stabbed Saruman in the back and threw him off the tower?
idk it's giving Kaboodle.
#lifesteal#gnome rambles#it's also in the extended edition but they never call him “of the many colors” in the movies#and I always loved that name bc all colors make White and Gandalf still thought he was The White wizard#but his lies split Saruman apart and was his downfall and that's why Gandalf could become the White#anyway. anytime someone talks about what Kaboodle told them I think of him

#the juxtaposition of the rhapsodies about plantlife and allusions to more mythologies than 1 person can possibly catch #and the grounded comedy of sam gamgee breaking a guy’s nose with an apple #is imo a KEY element of the whole experience (via tanoraqui)
Lord of the Rings is so good. I’m just not over how good it is. I knew I’d like it on the macro scale, and I knew and cared deeply about the characters beforehand, via movies, meta, osmosis. But what the fuck it’s just wall to wall descriptions of a hedge that are transcendental — like that hedge is making me feel like I’m 20 and talking to a beautiful girl in a club bathroom — and catty dialogue and also a small love story to the some particular dyke constructed in the Dark Ages.
#it's about the dualities!!! the both-and!!#the world is full of stories and plants and landscapes which are beautiful and wondrous in and of themselves#and a thousand times over in the endless works of art they can inspire and which can be inspired in turn by those#AND at the end of the day we're all still people and keeping that in perspective matters too#beauty and grandeur are all well and good but everyone still needs food and sleep and the ability to laugh at themselves sometimes#there's a reason the main characters of this grand epic tale of larger-than-life mythological figures and heroes#standing together against an overwhelming evil#*are* the hobbits#bc they're the ones who can actually be the counterbalance that keeps the whole thing grounded!#also other reasons and that's not their exclusive role in the story nor are they a monolith bc nothing is generally that simple with tolkie#but still#lotr#lotr meta#the lord of the rings#truly though like. there is a REASON so many of the most memorable/funny lines are about the contrast#the high beautiful epic language#and then a rebuttal in the most ordinary casual tone#behold‚ saruman of many colors!!!! gandalf liked white better#and so forth#(my personal favorite examples are in ROTK so for spoilers reasons i shall not quote them here but who needs more than that one anyway)

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! you MUST watch the animated version of LOTR. It has everything. Rotoscopy. balrog. Hot Aragorn. shadow puppets. An incredibly rushed ending. Saruman's Technicolor Dreamcoat
This does actually sound very entertaining, I should check it out! (I desperately want the shadow puppets to be the Nazgul...)
#it's probably been more than a decade since I've watched any LOTR stuff LOL so it could be fun#asks#caracalliope#wait if saruman has a technicolor dreamcoat that begs for an edit w the audio of joseph singing about his coat of many colors lmaooo#saruman: i look handsome i look smart

In the book Saruman says that with the extra power of Sauron he won't be just Saruman the White, but the Saruman of Many Colors
I imagined him dressing like this, and I couldn't stop chuckling
