#the hobbit textpost

[theidlespoon]

nothing, just tolkien originally writing down the hobbit because his son christopher kept complaining that he'd change the details from night to night and then christopher later being so crucial in taking tolkien's notes and turning them into fully written novels of worldbuilding. loving someone to the point of creation and then having them help you finish the job.

The next chapter of my comic adaptation of The Hobbit will be posted on August 13th! It will be the last "normal" chapter of the comic before we reach the five extra-long "finale" chapters.

goblins are woodwind

hobbits/halflings are vocals

and humans are synths!

If fantasy races were an orchestra it would be as follows:

-Elves are strings.

-Dwarves would be brass.

-Orcs would definitely be drums.

I have no idea where humans would go, tho.

last thing i googled: well strictly via google it was "tumblr well i'm not the best so why's it happening to me" (i only use google for looking up specific tumblr textposts. otherwise i use duckduckgo) but in the spirit of googling it was "riley poole national treasure". for an icon.

current obsession: what else? narnia

looking forward to: officially being done with my classes (2 assignments left!) so i can fully dedicate my days to writing without guilt, going to see narnia props in january, getting my first tattoo!

we all know bilbo is an unreliable narrator as he’s writing his story from his perspective years later, with knowledge of the significance of the events that occurred and how he impacted them (especially when we look at the story of the one ring) but like, how did he remember all of those details? we know bilbo’s observant, but he’s also very stressed out all of the time and that makes it hard to remember things.

i personally like to think that bilbo kept a series of journals during the journey, the first abandoned in the wood elves palace (and was a journal that formerly functioned as a ledger), the second kept during the siege of the lonely mountain. 

the journals are hundreds of pages of short passive-aggressive ramblings on dwarves and dragons and adventures and food with multiple mental breakdowns sprinkled in. there are at least fifteen poems on the stupidity of dwarves. he has pages upon pages of painstaking analysis on the riddle game. he keeps tallies for every butterfly he sees. his grammar either gets progressively better or progressively worse. at some point he just writes “IT’S HAPPENING” with no date and no other context.

Kili: *about to literally fight three trolls*

Fili: Kili you cant fight those things. They’ll kill you

Kili: Ha! Only if I die

Fili: ...

Fili: Yeah... um that’s how death works

This Tweet has such Stede Bonnet vibes, I can't--

[captcins]

I can see Melkor being like "so, you've been defeated by a Hobbit? " and Sauron like "Shut the f*ck up."
