me reading tolkien’ children of hurin at the age of 13, 14 or whatever, i forget the age, i was a teen ok: it’s a bit too sad? parts of it is a bit too fucked up? but it’s a good tale, i think.
me reading tolkien’s children of hurin now: i think turin needs to go to therapy instead of ruining elf lives
#im re-reading children of hurin instead of tolkien's better works because i wanna read abt my boy beleg again#also i wanna read elf stories lmao#if i wanna a local Man/men ruining elf lives story. i will just play city elf origin from dragon age: origins ok!!!#im deleting beleg x turin tag. beleg's man was wack! ok! a bigger wack-o than i remember!#beleg be like '[died] at the hands of whom he loved the most' ok well u should have found yourself another man. my dude#god i completely forget abt the whole deal with saeros. i especially forget that he was an elf. i do remember he was bit of an asshole tho#typical wood elf antic. but i also remember my teen self thought saeros deserved to die the way he died.#but now im just like 'turin what the fuck is wrong with u?'#i didnt know in the original version sareos died cause he tried to provoke turin at a party and turin threw a goblet at his head and he died#imagine u r an elf and u show up at the hall of mandos @ mandos goes 'why r u dead bitch?' & u go 'some human threw a goblet at me head'#the published version is just...like. fucked up. instead. like turin u cant blame this on some curse from the Devil ok. YOU chose to do that#then beleg heard abt this and was like 'rip to saeros but i am different' and turin mistook him 4 an orc in the dark and stabbed him#yolanda talks#the moral of children of hurin is that you shouldn't fall in love with humans. that's fucked up.#thats also what daeron told luthien too. probably. but daeron is just a preppy elf dude who got friendzoned by elf gal#daeron is like 'why dont u love me. a respectable. good looking. talented elf man. why do u rather want that human who talk to birds?'#and luthien is like 'yeah beren is weird but he's got a good vibe you know? also he let me smoke weed'#daeron: he let u smoke weed?#luthien: anyways im a different kind of cishet girl u know? i like weird dudes. i just rly connect with them on a spiritual level u know?#also whats up with the greatest poet and minstrel of middle earth both being 2 elf dudes who decided 2 b professional cryptids#poor maglor got pretty messed up so he got good reasons to be a cryptid for like. 6k years.#but daeron just got friendzoned and yeah he also felt sorry that he accidentally got luthien imprisoned#but it was mostly just a friendzone he cant get over with. like. i dont got much of sympathy for this shit lol#also its specifically stated that HE is the greatest poet/ministrel? not my dude maglor? just cause hes a sindarin elf?#since there was this great party noldor high king threw where all the elves (ELVES!!!) from middle earth at the time showed up at#specifically including sons of feanor (so including maglor) and daeron. representing doriath. so i bet there was a musical contest#and maglor somehow lost to daeron. so maglor can only be the second greatest poet/ministrel. i bet maglor hate daeron's ass so much lmao#but also daeron probably hate maglor for being one of the sons of feanor that later invaded doriath cause of their horrible oath#maybe they can talk it out now they are both middle earth cryptids. lmao just now i remember maglor/daeron is a thing
