Translating the Song of Beren and Luthien into Sindarin!

If you don't mind, I would like to ask:

Are there any happy or joyful moments between Noa and Mae?

Such as Mae singing childhood songs, those rhytmic ones? Or dancing around the campfire? Maybe Noa telling humorous tales from his childhood or him having contagious laugh so Mae laughs too?

It's just that they deserve some happy moments too.

I don't mind at all! I agree, they definitely deserve some happy moments :''')

I assume you're asking about my headcanons; I like to imagine Noa would show Mae how to care for the eagles! He'd teach her the clan's songs and the stories behind them; then he finds out she sings pretty well (Freya Allan has a beautiful singing voice btw) and asks about human songs.

So Mae turns to the old children's tunes and nursery rhymes kept alive in the bunker's archives (maybe her mom sang some to her when she was a kid). Maybe Noa finds the meanings funny or confusing, but either way, he's curious about human music XD

I also headcanon that she teaches Noa (plus Soona and Anaya) how to dance! I don't know if Eagle Clan has any dances, but Mae would show them the "swaying side to side" method loll In turn, Noa teaches Mae how to climb better XD

Thanks for the ask! I love thinking about these two <333

thinking of rereading the entirety of HoME again. for my health

[chaos-of-the-abyss]

everytime you kissed me is such a good song for the fairytale-esque tragedy vibes of thingol/melian, beren/luthien, and dior/nimloth. melian thinking of thingol as she waits for his re-embodiment, luthien thinking of beren as she slowly dies of grief over his death, and nimloth thinking of dior as she laments how she can never reach him beyond the circles of the world

Hi! New on Tumblr, finally daring to jump into the abyss and join the insanity! I’m a scientist IRL but mostly an artist and nerd, here to share and enjoy art and nerdy topics! Here’s a selection of some of my favorite pieces, and to see more check out my Cara profile: https://cara.app/nerdylizard

I love Tolkien, Brandon Sanderson, Star Trek, Star Wars, Firefly, Doctor Who, and more! My OCs are mostly from Lord of the Rings Online, with some D&D, and I absolutely love doing commission art!

In the midst of the fighting, they were swept apart and Daeron was taken by force. He was brought to Tol-in-Gaurhoth, for Sauron’s machinations ran deep. But in despair, Beren hounded their steps, even to the gates of the fortress.

The Book of Unfinished Tales Tolkien Never Actually Wrote

Quite a lot of the time I think 'I am a rational, levelheaded person who is not affected by romance, it's nice and all I guess, but I will prioritize my faith/learning/family/job'

And then I listen to Clamavi De Profundis's Beren and Luthien and I remember that actually I am a sap.

A Million Dreams' "However big, however small, let me be part of it all. Share your dreams with me. You may be right, you may be wrong, but say that you'll bring me along" has Beren and Lùthien written all over it and I love it for that.

Watching people analyze a show I do not* watch (yes, RoP) again, because it's interesting ahd he shows the lyrics to the wandering song, and at 1st stanza I got an epiphany: Oh. This song is about death.

And then the second stanza is like meh… it doesn't fit at all. :(

Anyway. Those two stanzas have so different feel. Therefore I declare: The first stanza is a borrowing from some of the earlier (Mannish) cultures. The second stanza is their own (Harfoots' I mean).

\*business reasons not artistic reasons.
