ngl I was scrolling thru AC6 posts earlier and I forgot I wasn’t doing that right now. I actually haven’t played AC6 yet because my broke ass is waiting for it to go on sale, but I’ve played the older games casually waaay back and so I deadass thought for ten whole seconds that “Crows” were some new thing introduced in Armored Core 6 instead of y’know.
The bird.
unpopular opinion but crows are just lesser ravens. Ravens are are bigger fluffier, and can do more aerial tricks.
I will not waver.
#armored core#birds#crows#ravens#In spite of being that mecha friend around like three different friendgroups#I actually think I might know less about AC than like any given Soulsbourne friend#Or at least AC6#I know enough about the older games but by that I mean mostly just#Cool robot designs lol#Oh and I remember that one pilot Bilbo or whatever her name was#She was lame but I liked her character description#And her vomit green mech#Idk where I was going with this#OH also I remember the painball guy who looks like Guel's mech or smth#idk#I apologize to all AC fans for this

the ask game <3! for captain haddock -> 5, 7, 12, 23 & 24 👀
Ohhh thank you so much for all these! Captain Haddock my beloved <3
5. What's the first song that comes to mind when you think about them?
I think this one (sorry Captain but):
7. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you like?
I love LOVE when fans treat him more than a joke and take seriously his alcoholism! Don't get me wrong, I love the memes and making fun of him but he clearly is many more things and has proven it countless times in canon material! Also like how we collectively said "this is a babygirl failure" lol
12. What's a headcanon you have for this character?
Oh, so many actually! A few of them are:
He is extremely smart and fast in learning languages! His career was helped by these traits and he managed to become a captain fast- after learning all the jobs on a ship!
He is closely to ADHD in the spectrum, at least to my eyes.
He is in the ace spectrum (probably close to demisexual) but SUPER romantic lol.
23. Favorite picture of this character?
Probably this (they're both so adorable here):
24. What other character from another fandom of yours that reminds you of them?
This is funny because I remember at the beginning of my hyperfixation with Tintin I was only in The Hobbit fandom and while I was trying to see what are the similarities that drew me to these two I concluded that Haddock was closer to Bilbo than Thorin despite the similarities in the appearance. Both are thirsty for adventure but won't admit it even if their lives are on the line, are not a big fan of living their homes (both with old money btw lol) BUT STILL left home to follow a maniac in their perilous journey and proved themselves necessary and so on and on.
Other characters don't come to my mind right now but I am sure I can find a Captain Haddock in every character who will step out of their comfort zone for someone else's sake but still nag during the way lol.

LOTR characters at Pride 🏳🌈
(A little silly and out of character but aren't we all.)
(Also, I headcannon them all queer but left out my specifics so they could be read how anyone wants them to be.)
Speak friend and enter the pride fest:
Frodo, Sam, Rosie and Rosie's girlfriend/theyfriend (Who? You? Me? Reader's choice!) are a powerhouse polycule with a YouTube channel. Even though Frodo made a list of events they were going to hit, they keep getting sidetracked by fans who want to talk and take selfies. So they mostly just wander and enjoy the day. Sam does have a backpack full of necessities to keep everyone comfortable and makes sure everyone, even complete strangers, are wearing enough sunscreen.
Arwen and Aragorn may not be 👑royalty👑 in this timeline, but are still pretty high profile so they keep it pretty open and casual. They set up all day in a shady spot at the public square on a bench with blankets laid out on the grass so they can talk with anyone who passes by. It's the pit stop for their friends to come cool off or relax when they need a break. Arwen brings a bag full of hair supplies and makeup so people can come in for touch ups throughout the day. She can do anyone's pride flag eyeshadow look flawlessly in under two minutes. (So could Aragorn, probably.)
Pippin's main goal is to eat something from every single food truck, deli, and coffee shop in the area. He says it's so he can post actual helpful reviews but he ends up only posting one Instagram reel where he speaks incoherently with a mouthful of vegan chili fries and that's it. Takes a bunch of pictures of different food items with different pride flags but forgets about them and doesn't post them until September.
Merry will buy from every single vendor at every event. You have flags? T-shirts? Jewelry? Art? He's going to buy one of each from every artist and organization. (He then donates most of the things he buys to the local lgbtq community center.)
Boromir doesn't want to wander around too much by himself because it's his first pride, but sticking with Merry and Pippin means he becomes responsible for carrying all their stuff. Within an hour he's absolutely covered in merch with three tote bags on each arm. He knows his flag is one of the 27 he now has hanging on or tucked in every available space on his body but if you asked him which one it was he would have to ask Merry. Pippin does keep him hydrated at least, a new flavor of iced lemonade always appears in his hand whenever the last one runs out.
Éowyn and Faramir run the table for the local non-profit advocacy group that educates citizens on important legislation that impacts the queer community. They can explain the details of different bills and current issues being tracked in the legal system, organize volunteer groups for different causes, and hook people in need up with outreach and activist organizations.
Gimli and Legolas disappear on June 1st and don't emerge again until the month is over. People will catch glimpses of them pretty much everywhere, and when they do there is always either a lot of glitter or alcohol involved (and let's be honest, most of the time both). No one can figure out how they managed to be on multiple floats in the same parade but after a while no one questions it.
Haldir saw once a long time ago that some orientations weren't represented very well and has been on a mission to rectify that ever since. Even though things have gotten better, he now always has a table where he gives away stuff for the underrepresented identities. He's got all the genderqueer flags, tons of neopronoun pins, and whole decks of cards with just aces in them. If you're demi or flux or anything else not widely represented, Haldir's got you.
Gandalf loves the drag shows but since they are all either outside or in very crowded loud clubs, he usually hits one then spends the rest of his time in a very air conditioned, quieter, industrial style bar with elder queers and some bears.
Bilbo coordinates all the literary events like the queer banned books mobile, drag story times, poetry readings, and elder queer panels. Definitely tells his own activist stories from back in the day to anyone who will listen (and many do!)
Elrond goes just to check things out for an hour or two, but ends up having the time of his life and signing up to drive the queer banned books mobile for the rest of the summer.
Happy pride, everyone! 🌈

My favourite domination quotes from every TF2 Merc
Holy cow this took a while but was so fun to put together.
Because let’s be honest…the domination voice lines are one of the best things about playing TF2. You can’t tell me it’s not satisfying (or hilarious) when you hear one of these!
Scout:
To Soldier: “What’s your major malfunction, brother?”
(This is a reference to the movie Full Metal Jacket with a character that Soldier is definitely based off of)
To Medic: “Real nice effort, Deutsch-bag!”
To Pyro: “Dude, you’d get a closed casket at the ugly cemetery”
To Sniper: “You’ll never hit me! You’ll never hit my tiny head! It’s so tiny, I got a frickin’…such a tiny little head!
(If I ever hear this as Sniper I might just throw my mouse out the window lol)
To Spy: “Hehe, hey look! You shapeshifted into a dead guy!”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Soldier:
“If God had wanted you to live, he would not have created ME!”
To Demoman: “Scotland is not a real country! You are an Englishman in a dress!”
To Pyro: “You cannot burn me, I do not have time to combust!”
To Engineer: “Go back to Calgary, you cow-herdin’ Canadian!”
(As a Canadian, this one just tickles me. Why does he think Engie is from Alberta? I’m honestly shocked that Soldier knows the name of a single Canadian city lol).
To Medic: “Ich Bin I just kicked your ass!”
(“Ich Bin” means “I am” in German, which means Soldier said “I am I just kicked your ass” LOL)
To Sniper: “You just got dominated, Bilbo Baggins!”
(I have NO clue why he says this but as a LOTR fan I fucking love it. If anyone can explain the connection that would be cool.)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gonna skip Pyro for obvious reasons, sorry Pyro! :(
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Demoman:
To Pyro: Go to hell! And tell the devil I’m coming for him next!”
(Damn that goes hard)
To Medic: “How’s that ‘doing no harm’ working out for you, then?”
To Sniper: “I hate you campers! Everyone bloody hates you!”
(Jesus Demo, what did he do to you? lol)
“They’re going to bury what’s left of you in a soup can!”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Heavy:
(No character specific lines but I still enjoy them)
“You are dead. Not big surprise.”
“Killing you is full time job now.”
“Entire team is babies!”
“I think you should fight someone much, much smaller!”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Engineer:
To Scout: “Boy, this here is just gonna keep happening and happening.”
To Soldier: “That there is just a sad display, boy.”
To Demoman: “Drunk on the battlefield ain’t no way to be, son.”
(I love how he calls everyone “boy” or “son” lol)
To another Engineer: “I’m wolverine-mean you son of a bitch.”
To Medic: “You must be a doctor, ���cause you just saw the extent of my patience!”
(My personal fav)
To Sniper: “Down under? More like six feet down under.”
To Spy: “If ya’ll had more gadgets for killin’, you wouldn’t need so many for hidin’.”
(We love a sassy short king)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Medic:
(Also doesn’t have any character specific lines, but there are some gems)
“Would you like a second opinion? You are also ugly!”
“I do not think we brought enough body bags!”
“Aww, did the Fraulein’s have their Mittelschmerz?”
(Translation: “Did the ladies get their period cramps?” Damn Medic that is…something lol)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sniper:
(Maybe I’m biased but I swear he has the best lines in the game.)
“If your strategy is to build me confidence, it’s working.”
To Soldier: “Oi, lend us your shovel so I can dig your grave!”
(Jesus Christ lol)
To Demoman: “Ace reflexes, you bomb-chuckin’ waste of good scotch!”
To Engineer: You are inventing loads of new ways to get killed by me!” (The freaking sass when he says this, it’s unparalleled)
To Medic: “Sorry, there nurse, I mistook you for an actual threat!”
(OUCH)
To another Sniper: “You’re making this so easy. I’m actually getting worse.”
To Spy: “Aww, did I get blood on your suit?”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Spy:
“I never really was on your side.”
To Scout: “Here lies Scout, he ran fast and died a virgin.”
(Stop, stop, he’s already dead!)
To Demoman: “Here’s what I have that you don’t: a functioning liver, depth perception and a pulse!”
To Heavy: “You died as you lived…morbidly obese!” (Spy really doesn’t pull any punches lol)
To Engineer: “Did I throw a wrench into your plans?” *laughs*
To Medic: “Aww, you almost healed me to death that time!”
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Gosh this took me way longer to write than I would’ve expected so I hope somebody reads it lol
Comment below with your favourite TF2 line (or put it in the tags). I have to know!
#TF2#hopefully the outline of this isn't too confusing#I tried to make it as neat as possible#my list#my thoughts

So, with the end of the current hiatus nowhere in sight, the creators of Epic Rap Battles of History have been releasing short videos in which they respond to people's matchup ideas and talk about whether or not they'd do them. What follows are my thoughts on each suggestion.
Dog the Bounty Hunter vs Chris Hansen: Terrible; Dog stopped being relevant years ago and Hansen has no real valid matchups
Jack Sparrow vs Bilbo Baggins: They might be able to pull it off, but the connection is tenuous at best
Malcolm X vs Nelson Mandela: Perfect. Do it immediately
Dexter vs Punisher: Could work, though I prefer Punisher vs Peacemaker
The Wiggles v-NO
Marco Polo vs Zheng Yi Sao: Awesome; the show's always great at spotlighting obscure historical figures, so this would be fun
Sheldon Cooper vs Rick Sanchez: I don't really get their reasoning for passing this one up. "I don't wanna use Rick because his creator is problematic," they say seconds before suggesting Roseanne instead and three years after using Harry Potter
HP Lovecraft vs Mary Shelley: Could work, but Lovecraft might be better suited for a more prolific author
Captain America vs Mussolini: Could work, but I prefer Cap vs Batman
Black Panther vs Catwoman: Unique idea; would be cool to see which versions of the characters they use
Ethan Hunt vs Angus MacGyver: Meh
John Wilkes Booth vs Lee Harvey Oswald: I'm glad they turned this one down; it just sounds very insubstantial. The fact that they each killed Presidents is the only thing either of them are known for
Robin Hood vs Ned Kelly: Sounds awesome; I can’t fathom what Lloyd was talking about when he said Robin Hood can't be made "cool." Has he never heard of any of the non-Disney movies he was in?
Steve Harvey vs Dr. Phil: Meh
The Three Stooges vs The Three Musketeers: IT'S ALL I WANT AND I'VE WAITED FOR SO LONG
Patrick Bateman vs Andrew Tate: Bateman is worthy of a rap battle, but there is no fucking way a disgusting sack of shit like Andrew Fucking Tate deserves to be immortalized in this or any series. Not only is he a monstrous asshole, but since I'd never heard of him before he got arrested, he just comes off as too second-string and his image too fleeting to be remembered after the battle's release anyway. It's like how Sarah Palin and Napoleon Dynamite appeared in season 1; what's the point? Bateman would be better off facing another fictional character like Tyler Durden or Tommy Shelby or Rorschach or Homelander or any other member of the "you're missing the point by idolizing them" club
Miles Morales vs Dick Grayson: A great idea for a battle, but it irks me how they seem to only think of Dick Grayson as Robin, and even then only how he was portrayed in the 60s TV show. Since Dick Grayson's graduation to the solo hero Nightwing and his leadership of the Titans have been the status quo in the comics for decades, and even his TV and movie appearances as Robin clearly show him to be more than the hyperactive goofball that Lloyd portrayed him as in season 2, their lack of research here is jarring — especially considering how diligent they are with their other characters (remember, Peter read every issue of the Dragon Ball manga and watched every episode of Breaking Bad in preparation for the later half of season 3).
Garfield and Jon vs Calvin and Hobbes: Eh, I don't see it. No disrespect to their creators or fans, but they just ain't rap battle material
Metallica and AC/DC vs Slayer and Guns n Roses: I agree with them that a team battle between unrelated heavy metal acts would be unwieldy, but any combination of those four could totally be awesome in a straight 1v1 battle
Richard Nixon vs King John: Could work, but I'd rather have Nixon in a Presidential royale
Barbie vs He-Man: Another "meh" idea, but I'm not fond of Peter's assertion that He-Man is only known for the bad '90s movie when he's appeared in multiple media before and since that have all gained a far more positive reception and a strong fanbase

this is about my ace Bilbo headcanon.
First point: I do love the bagginshield dynamic and concept. Romantically or platonically, it is a compelling relationship arc to me. Naturally, I love to read bagginshield fics because I can indulge my love of their dynamic.
Second point: I see Bilbo as so unequivocally, absolutely asexual that when I read bagginshield fics where Bilbo is sexually attracted to someone, my brain goes “this is not correct.”
Third point: This does not exclude aesthetic attraction! I love that stuff! I read fics recently where Bilbo fell in love with Thorin, and he admired Thorin’s features and muscles and things. Admiration that is aesthetic-driven and non-sexual feels more accurate to Bilbo for me. So I’m all for Bilbo admiring people’s pretty looks and even going heart-eyed at how beautiful someone is.

Okay I was just saying this earlier…as like an idea. But now I’m pretty sure I want to see Band AU Thorin and Bilbo with the AC out in either their place or hanging in the hot garage trying to find ways to Keep Cool 😎
Alright!! For you, we have a quick drabble of the "Bookbinder // Songwriter" AU verse with Thorin and Bilbo trying to keep cool on a hot summer day. Note: it leads to spicy, but I didn't write anything spicy (and god I would love to).
-> Summer Stories (Week 1) Send in a prompt request you want to see and I'll try to do it!
Finding Ways to Keep Cool
“When were the repair guys supposed to be here?” Thorin groaned in annoyance, as well as misery, from his slumped state sprawled across Bilbo’s sofa.
“Two hours ago.” And Bilbo’s tone matched the same level of misery that Thorin’s did, only he was sprawled in an armchair looking no better than a half-melted ice cream cone on the sidewalk.
Lolling his head to the side to get a better view of Thorin, Bilbo normally would have been springing to his feet with what he was staring at. Thorin had stripped his shirt a long time ago, his hair pulled up into a bun practically atop his head, and just splayed out across the couch as if they’d already done something physical and exhausting, and yet neither had touched the other in any fashion.
Watching the rise and fall of Thorin’s breathing, unable to keep his eyes from zeroing in on the shiny trinkets that decorated his boyfriend’s chest, Bilbo let out a sigh. “You’re going to make my sofa soggy,” he griped, but there was nothing malicious in his tone directed at his significant other, anyway. “Are you sure you want to stay?”
“It’s either I melt here, or I melt at home. You’re far better company than a couple of cranky kids…and Dis.”
Well, Bilbo took it as a compliment at least as he shrugged and continued to just watch Thorin breathe, trying to think of happier things than waiting on a few repairmen so that his air conditioner could get fixed on what felt like the hottest day of the summer already. A few fans just weren’t doing it, simply blowing around hot air and creating endless noise within the townhouse that Bilbo once loved, but now was starting to loathe.
“You need a house with a pool, or a walk-in freezer, that would do the trick…” Thorin sighed. Even just thinking of a bit of chill was helpful, but it truly didn’t do anything as he swiped another bead of sweat from his forehead. “If they’re not here within the hour, I’m calling–”
Bilbo’s phone started ringing which promptly shut Thorin up as all attention went to the little device that housed their fate at the moment. A simple call from their repair folk, and miserable news that it would be at minimum another hour before they arrived. Apparently, Bilbo wasn’t the only one suffering from a busted air conditioner, and that made adhering to a schedule damn near impossible.
“Well?”
“At least another hour before they can make it out here, but they did say it could be sooner. Highly unlikely, but it’s possible.” Bilbo tossed his phone aside and lazily pulled himself to his feet. Setting his glasses aside and plucking at the bottom of his shirt so that he could wipe at his eyes, a low groan exited his lips as he toddled away into the open kitchen just behind the sofa that Thorin was miserably draped across.
An ice pack was tossed across the back of the sofa, plopping on Thorin’s chest as the guitarist gave out a yelp at the sudden chill that felt akin to a burn across his skin. “Jesus, FUCK, that’s cold!”
“That’s what you get for taking your shirt off, not that I’m complaining,” Bilbo grinned cheesily as he had an ice pack draped across the back of his neck. “You’re quite the view, as always, and if it wasn’t a thousand degrees, I would have jumped your bones ages ago.” Tapping the tip of Thorin’s nose from where he stood behind the sofa, Bilbo’s grin just widened. Often he was one on the receiving end of his supposed ‘button nose’ being tapped, but to watch Thorin’s face wrinkle up as he adjusted the ice pack to rest at the front of his neck, Bilbo just couldn’t help himself.
“The last thing either of us needs is more heat. I’m already sweating cause this place is a god damned furnace. I don’t think heat stroke is good for the sex drive,” Thorin grouched as his eyes closed.
“Hm, well then maybe I’ll start looking at expanding and getting a real house with that pool you mentioned. That could be fun…so long as there is a privacy fence.” Resting against the back of the sofa, Bilbo’s expression went from cheeky to dreamy, tapping his fingers against the fabric of his furniture. “Mm, yes, a good idea. Can you envision it? I imagine lots of splashing, and I’ll have you know, the majority of my bag of goodies are waterproof.”
This had Thorin grinning, prying one eye open to stare up at Bilbo as that mask of annoyance was melting away. “What a perfect way to christen the new house,” he teased, “I’ve never fucked in water before, could be fun.”
“Closest I’ve ever gotten was a miserable mishap with my shower tub back before we moved, and I never even made it to the fun part…and I was by myself…” A lament for the ages in Bilbo’s mind, but as Thorin sat up rather promptly, Bilbo’s expression settled for worry more than anything. “Thorin?”
“We have an hour at minimum?”
“...Yes?”
But Thorin was on his feet, tossing aside the ice pack and lacing his hand with Bilbo’s to lead him around.
“Thorin, what are you–” But Bilbo was met with that look in Thorin’s eye. A sparkle that screamed mischief, and that he was in the mood. Bilbo had come to know that look very well, whether they locked eyes after a show, early in the morning, and one time even while Bilbo was manning the book shop by himself.
“We’re trying to stay cool, and these fans and ice packs just aren’t doing it for me. For once, a cold shower can be a good thing, and it would be unfair for one of us to cool off and the other to suffer.”
A cold shower. Why hadn’t Bilbo thought of that as he’d been staring at Thorin for the greater portion of the afternoon and growing even more hot and bothered?
“You’re a genius.”
The grin that Thorin flashed was wide, just as it was proud. “I know. And don’t worry, I’ll make sure you don’t slip and fall into the shower without getting to the good stuff.”
Those happy little sparks rolled up and down Bilbo’s spine as they ascended the stairs, and with one hand free, Bilbo was already trying to loosen his garb for easy tossing once they made it to the shower. “The only thing I’ll be slipping into is you.”
“Mm, beautiful,” Thorin murmured as his free hand jutted out to turn on the water while simultaneously lunging to capture Bilbo’s mouth with his own. The spray from the shower head was already a delightful tingle of coolness against his back as they worked sloppily out of their clothes and into the shower with nothing more than the highly anticipated promise of finally getting a chance to beat the heat…and a few other things.
As they say, two birds, one stone.

Uhhh do SHADOW for the ask meme
Oooh, what a fun idea!
Show us an example of your personal headcanon (prompts optional but encouraged)
I had two asks with Ss in them, but no prompts! So, okay, there’s the obvious ones, (Aldarion spending so much time in Middle-Earth because he’s giving the D to Gil-galad, Sting as originally being a dagger for Idril), now I’m really scratching my head....OH! Here’s a controversial take and something I was thinking about today: Fingon and Maedhros not being married, because of the cousin taboo.
Alright, alright, alright, so: Fingon’s rescued Maedhros, the rift is healed, yay everything. Fingolfin pulls Fingon aside and is like, “Son, you know I need you to marry. Preferably a woman.” Argon is dead; Turgon will have no other children beyond Idril; Fingolfin has the preternatural knowing that he will not survive against Morgoth - their people are going to look to Fingon. And what will he then do, marry his own cousin?? How can he do this, the Noldor need him.
Yeahhhh, it’s angsty. All about how Fingon does what dad wants, marries a Sindar of Cirdan’s people, has Gil; but still goes to Maedhros at the drop of a hat (oh, they fuckin’). But yeah, the metas on why Russingon doesn’t violate the cousin taboo are valid, but imo, it’s impossible for Fingon and Maedhros to have any kind of happy ending, and I am firmly in the Gil-galad-as-Fingon’s-son camp. (This got longer than anyone expected.)
H - What is your favorite source text for fandom stuff (e.g., tv shows, movies, books, anime, Western animation, etc.)
I’m not sure I entirely understand this question, what kind of fandoms do I gravitate to? Cause “source text” to me is, like......what sources do you site in your fan participation. If the former, idk, anything that strikes my fancy. The latter, specifically for Tolkien (because that’s all I care about anymore), I’m one of those tiresome people who prefers the books to the films, so first and foremost the actual text. For easy retrieval, I tend to use Tolkien Gateway, but about the only thing I strongly disagree on with that is their take on Gil-galad, so there you have it. The One Wiki to Rule Them All is good, not quite AS good for book stuff, but great for film and game stuff. (But then again they have the “correct” take on Gil-galad, so.)
A - Your current OTP(s)/OT3(s)/OTX(s)
-rubs hands in glee-
Okay, okay, okay. So.......this is just Tolkien. Cause that’s all I care about now. But, in no particular order (caps are “I will lose my mind over this ship,” non-caps are just “I like/write for it.”):
Aredhel/Eol
Beren/Luthien
TUOR/IDRIL
I....oof, look, it’s not that I LIKE Turin/Nienor it’s that.....I’m so compelled....like a fuckin’ train wreck, yo.....too fascinating....
ELROND/CELEBRIAN
ARAGORN/ARWEN
Gimli/Legolas
BILBO/THORIN
Frodo/Sam/Rose (also acceptable: Frodo/Sam, Sam/Rose. My only OT3 ever, really.)
Faramir/Eowyn
Eomer/Lothiriel
Boromir/Theodred (also acceptable: aro/ace Boromir)
Dwalin/Ori
Celebrimbor/Fem!Narvi (this could quickly veer into I will lose my mind territory)
Is it weird I’m kinda into Elrond and Gilraen comforting each other and being a lowkey couple?
I can’t believe I almost forgot Sauron/Melkor, the OG power couple
I think that’s.....more than plenty.
D - A pairing you wish you liked but just can’t (again: be nice)
God I want to like Caranthir/Haleth. Well, I DO like Caranthir/Haleth. I just......I just really believe Haleth likes the ladies.....Fully here for Caranthir realizing he’s pining from afar, though. Like God, this should really be my type, but I just.....
I’m not as into Russingon as so much of the fandom is, but I don’t dislike it. But I’m really not part of the Feanorian hype train, don’t fully get it.
O - Choose a song at random, which ship or character does it remind you of
God, I don’t have all my music on my laptop and I don’t really use Spotify, I’m not sure I CAN do something random.....Let me see.....RANDOM PANDORA???
Niiiiice, “Rebel, Rebel.” Damn, you know, I feel like I just had a thought about this the other day.....Let me think here.....Yeah, sorry, I got nothing. If you want me to redo this one, by all means.
W - 5 favorite ships and 5 kinks you like best for said ships
Oh man, oh man, oh man. Uhhhhhhhh. God, it would really help if I were kinkier.
Bilbo/Thorin and I don’t know how to explain this one, but like.......power bottom Bilbo??? Like, sure, it looks like Thorin’s in charge, but whose hand is he eating out of, does that make sense?
NO, SAME ONE AGAIN, SEX ON THE THRONE DURING THORIN’S GOLD SICKNESS, THAT HAS TO COUNT AS A PUBLIC SEX KINK. Not, like, IN public, like at night, but they could get caught.
.........................same one again, banging on the gold, Bilbo only wearing the mithril. I’m not sorry.
If I say Gimli/Legolas can I just say “all” for kinks? I mean.....................leather, for a start.
You know what, I’m going to throw a curve and say “Ar-Pharazon and Sauron, bondage. But the whole time, Sauron is plotting in the downfall of Numenor and dreaming of sex with Melkor.”
“What about Aragorn/Arwen?” He’s a virgin until the wedding night, give him a SECOND.
Omg, that was so fun, I hope it wasn’t boring. Keep ‘em coming, guys!

Please gimme some baggenshield headcannons or meta, I love reading what you have to say about things
:D ok!!
Both are gay but Bilbo is also asexual. This is why Thorin doesn't have any kids, and its already in Dwarvish culture not to force people to get married. He COULD marry a trans dwarf to have children for political reasons (or vice versa if Thorin is trans himself), but they also seem to put emphasis on having a "one" and so I feel like he hasn't yet for that reason.
I also have this headcanon that Dwarves' succession lines follow a secondary rule that if a Royal daughter produces a son before the heir of the current Monarch, then its HER son that is next in line. Dis had a son before Thorin did, so the crown would've gone to Fili anyway. In other words, Thorin previously had no pressure to marry or have kids.
Bilbo being gay and ace is also the reason why HE never marries or has kids. Thorin really was just his true love, so after he dies, the idea of loving again just. Dies with him.
I imagine Mithril has a religious/cultural significance to Dwarves (maybe similarly silver to Navajo people, or Jade in Chinese culture), also probably why there was so much of it in Moria. So Thorin giving the shirt to Bilbo is much deeper than he realizes
Thorin's singing and harp playing put Bilbo to sleep
They might have banged at some point during the Journey 👀 mayhaps, maybe. Once.
I have this theory that, because hobbits are so good at being ring bearers specifically because they feel no exceptional desire for power or valor, the ring instead corrupts hobbits by sentimentality. It's why Gollum refers to it as his "precious" and has a sort of "relationship" with it, why Bilbo and Frodo were so reluctant to let it go. I imagine Bilbo particularly cherishes the ring because he found it on his adventure, and had it after the durins died. It reminds him of his time with them, so letting it go kinda feels to him like hes "abandoning" Thorin and Fili and Kili. In the film, when he hoes all crazy and says to frodo "I'm sorry for everything" I think he's also apologizing to Thorin. Not only is he giving the Ring, but also sting AND his Mithril shirt to Frodo, all things he had when Thorin was alive. He genuinely wants to give them to Frodo, but at the same time he feels guilty somehow
"End of an Era" by Marianas Trench is a Bagginshield song but this part especially
And that's all I got for originality, a lot of my other headcanons just fall under popular fan interpretations as well (ex: Thorin being a hottie in the shire & a foster dad to Frodo, Fili and Kili considering Frodo their "cousin" etc) so I might as well not repeat them. But thank you!

Happy 70th birthday, Erin Gray!
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/59472050d3c3062706d4b87490d39e0d/1d48880836bd3cd7-2a/s540x810/f10fb289362684e75ed02f4c61c0e6c6fa9c8ce7.jpg)
Erin Gray, who played ace pilot Colonel Wilma Deering in Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, turns 70 today (January 7). In her diverse career, the Hawaiian-born actress has done everything from reportedly being a dancer in the infamous Leonard Nimoy music video for “The Ballad of Bilbo Baggins” (produced as a segment of her first TV series, Malibu U, in 1967), to writing a book of advice for beginning actors, to being a promoter of tai chi, to in recent years being a booking agent for celebrity appearances at sci-fi conventions. This on top of her acting work which aside from Wilma also included 5 seasons as Kate in the sitcom Silver Spoons, a recurring role as a police chief in a season of Baywatch, a congresswoman in Profiler, and she even appeared in the 2014 Star Trek fan film, Star Trek Continues.
I’ve had the privilege of meeting Erin several times, having interviewed her about not only her career but her tai chi work, as well, and it’s always great to see her at conventions. A great person, and the Buck Rogers series still holds fond memories for me.

Lotr and Black Sails
Thanks, Anon! I’ll do Lotr first:
Favorite character: The prize has to go to Boromir, I think, for a whole host of reasons, but I particularly love that he’s the voice of reason and caution in the Fellowship, and also just an awesome character in the movies.
Least Favorite character: you know, I’m not sure I have one? I love them all for their own reasons, and I mean - even Gollum is a good CHARACTER. um…. can I say Wormtongue? There’s just nothing redeemable there, really, and he’s creepy to boot.
5 Favorite ships (canon or non-canon): Faramir/Eowyn, Aragorn/Arwen, Legolas/Gimli, Frodo/Sam (because OH COME ON), and Eomer/a good night’s sleep
Character I find most attractive: Has to be Aragorn. I mean - speaks god alone knows how many languages, highly skilled with various types of weapons, AND canonically soft-spoken and gentle? sign me up please
Character I would marry: Again - Aragorn, if he weren’t slightly massively in love with Arwen and she with him. So, barring that - idk, Eomer seems pretty decent.
Character I would be best friends with: I feel like Gimli and I would get on just fine. And probably Eowyn - similar interests, and we’ve both gotten saddled with the burdens of older relatives who don’t have their shit together (voluntary or not).
a random thought: my random thought of the day is that Thorin Oakenshield saved Frodo’s life and in the process the entirety of Middle Earth by giving Bilbo that mithril shirt
An unpopular opinion: idk if I have any of those really? I’m not involved at all with any fandom drama I see happening. I don’t see Aragorn/Legolas, I guess? idk
My Canon OTP: Celeborn/Galadriel
My Non-canon OTP: Legolas/Gimli
Most Badass Character: let’s be real it’s Eowyn
Most Epic Villain: the Witch King. Sauron is an eyeball, Gollum just likes that juicy fish, and then you have the Witch King riding a dragon-thing and getting shit done. Of course, then too, you have Khamul his lieutenant who nearly murders everything in Mirkwood off-screen so… toss-up?
Pairing I am not a fan of: Merry/Pippin oh my gods they’re COUSINS stop
Character I feel the writers screwed up (in one way or another): none of them, they’re all good. ask me about the Hobbit and I’ll go on a rant for you
Favourite Friendship: there are so many good ones! there’s Aragorn + Legolas, Bilbo + Aragorn and Eowyn + Merry and Pippin + Faramir and… ok you can’t possibly make me choose, they’re all amazing, it’s what the whole trilogy turns on
Character I most identify with: Eowyn. Been there, darling, done that, good gods hand me that sword because let me tell you I get the frustration
Character I wish I could be: honestly? you couldn’t pay me enough to have Aragorn’s life, Boromir’s life is equally shitty, good gods no I do NOT want to be Faramir or Eomer or Eowyn, Elrond’s life is a whole pile of fuck no, Galadriel’s life is also filed under “too much drama in the early years” - um. I guess what I’m saying is that I’d rather be Treebeard? Gets to sleep for long periods of time, wakes up for long enough to fuck up everyone’s shit, and gets to live in a forest. Or maybe Tom Bombadil - again, seems to have it pretty cushy despite living at the edge of a Very Scary place.
Black Sails:
Favorite character: James Flint McGraw, hands down, no question
Least Favorite character: Alfred Hamilton, closely tied with Peter Ashe and Silver. they’re the unholy trio of straight white men who just don’t get it
5 Favorite ships (canon or non-canon): James/Thomas, James/Thomas/Miranda, Madi/Vane, Featherstone/Idelle, Max/Anne/Jack yes as an OT3 wherein the first two are lesbians but Jack is there in the relationship as part of the throuple in whatever context they’re comfortable with
Character I find most attractive: James Flint McGraw but Thomas Hamilton is a close second and Max comes third with the proviso that I’m ace af so this is all at an aesthetic level
Character I would marry: um… speaking realistically? Jack. He’s probably the most well-adjusted of the bunch with regards to actually making certain he’s taking his partner’s needs and feelings into account.
Character I would be best friends with: Probably Idelle? She’s just.. she’s cool, ok? and protective and loyal and smart
a random thought: I need to write Idelle at some point because I have not yet and that is a shame
An unpopular opinion: um… anyone who’s been following me knows that I have lots of those. I am a fount, if you like, of unpopular opinions in this fandom, the chief of which is that Silver isn’t worth the air he breathes and that Madi and Vane should have gotten together
My Canon OTP: James/Thomas
My Non-canon OTP: Madi/Vane
Most Badass Character: James Flint McGraw, there can be no other, although the runners up are Charles Vane and Madi, they are my darlings and I love them
Most Epic Villain: Hmm. Are we measuring in terms of “damage done”, or are we measuring in terms of being memorable? Because I’d say in terms of “good gods you just… you just absolutely fucked up everything completely what the FUCK dude?” that’s Silver and Alfred Hamilton. They both just… just completely betrayed the people closest to them for their own gain and I’m sorry but they’re both villains on a scale I can’t forgive. Ever. If we’re talking in terms of being memorable as hell - that’s got to be Ned Lowe, because seriously wow talk about being sadistic and standout in terms of just sheer brutality. And also a great reminder that there are pirates and then there are Pirates and that there’s a reason society cast all pirates as monsters.
Pairing I am not a fan of: S*lver/fl*nt. sorry, just can’t. similarly Madi/Flint is just not my jam, even though I love both characters individually.
Character I feel the writers screwed up (in one way or another): um… they slightly did not do a good job of Vane’s character arc, in that it took me several months after the finale of s4 to figure out wtf was going on in his head in s1 because it just does NOT match the rest of the character after that point at all. There’s coherence to his arc, there really is, but it’s just not telegraphed very well at all, and they could have done better, I think. Also Julius was underused - you have this badass ex-slave freedom fighter with his own agenda and then he gets what - three, four scenes at most?
Favourite Friendship: Madi and James. They’re just so fucking good for each other throughout s4, I have so many feels
Character I most identify with: depends on the day, but I seem to have found my inner Flint since the finale. Prior to that I would probably have said Miranda or Thomas.
Character I wish I could be: let’s face it - at the end of the day, Anne’s got it pretty good. She’s got Jack, she’s got Max, she’s got a command position on their ship, and she still gets to stab people when necessary. Yeah - I could stand being Anne.

I know this is late, but I actually don't know one of these! So this rep-starved ace is desperately asking for help 😂😂 can you tell me who the person in the sixth gif is? (Also I'm a huge Hobbit fan and didn't know Bilbo was canonically ace!! Where did you find that??)
Happy Asexual Awareness Week!
This week, I wanted to give a special shout-out to all the amazing asexual characters (whether or not they actually said the words) that we have out there representing us in all our favorite movies and shows- both good guys and bad! Making these gifs was actually really interesting for me, and it's been so much fun getting to see just how utterly cool these characters are; they're cool not despite what they aren't, but because of who they are.
And even though this feels like the weirdest way to formally come out on my blog, better late than never, I suppose. If you're a mutual reading this and you didn't know this part of me, surprise! 🎉
I wanted to also give a big thanks to the super nice @rhysgraves for helping me learn about some of these characters, you were so very helpful!
