ummmmmm okay so your art of nerdanel and celebrimbor was so cute and your comment about how hes the only one that gets back to her had me tearing up so now i gotta hear how you think their reunion goes

Hello! ♥

Ok, I have been procrastinating answering this for a very long time because I have lots of hcs (and feelings) about this, but absolutely no way to write them. Like, this got me thinking so hard that I wrote around 5 pages about their relationship before and after, but I just lack the ability to give form to all that mess. So, I'll just try to dump some of those hcs here. Very long post ahead:

I don't have a very clear vision of how would it be from Celebrimbor's point of view, to be honest. Mostly because I don't have any hcs about his mother (beside she being a teleri), and her absence or not when he gets back would kind of influence his reaction. Like, is Nerdanel the only motherly figure waiting for him? Why? I don't really know. But I'll say that she is.

I like the headcanon that injuries that are very related to trauma don't heal completely after being reincarnated. Is like the physical scars are the exteriorization of the emotional ones. So, going by that, Celebrimbor is full of them. And, by meeting Nerdanel, he feels ashamed of them for the first time. Not for an aesthetic reason, obviously, but because he knows that seeing them hurts her. She will look at him and know all the pain he went through and feel bad about him, and he doesn't want that. I mean, he craves to be comforted, but he doesn't want her to feel bad about him because a) he doesn't want to cause her any more pain b) He might feel he deserved what he got? But that would be me getting out of topic

As for Nerdanel, it's such an intense experience. I do have the hc that she is up to date with what each of her sons and even her (very ex) husband did and went through. Something about being allowed to see Miriel's tapestries about their lives. I imagine her being summoned whenever a son of her would arrive to Mandos. So, when she gets summoned for the last time, she is expecting Maglor. Seeing her grandson intead is a very different kind of pain. Seeing his life is specially painful to her because she can see the similarities between her grandson and her husband, but she can also see how different they were. While Feanor distrusted and disliked the valar, Celebrimbor blindly accepted the help and friendship of a maia. While Feanor traveled and sustained a kind of isolated life, Celebrimbor became the lord of a city which doors seemed to be open for everyone. While Feanor created things of beauty for his own, Celebrimbor created things that would help people. She can't stop thinking that half of the things Tyelpe did were a way to show how he wasn't Feanor. And some of those were the ones that ended up killing him.

She sees the tapestry, she knows what he went through before meeting him, and she had years to process it before he is re incarnated.

She wants to be strong for him, and she wants to be as comforting as she can. He was barely a teen when he left Valinor, so he probably doesn't remember much about her, but he is all that she's got from her family.

Meeting him for the first time is still a very shocking experience for her. At first glance, he looks like the husband he hates and the son that she misses. Looking closer he looks much softer and kinder that any of them, but he also looks more weary and older than any of them got to be while in Valinor. He was basically a kid when he left, and now he is this man aged by all the experiences he had to through in Middle Earth. She wanted to be strong, but just looking at him breaks her.

So I guess the actual reunion was a mess of crying, hugs and words of reassurance. But the most important part is Nerdanel inviting him to her family house, to her and her father's workshop. She wants him to keep creating. Creating helped her after the parting of her son's and husband. Creating helped her through each of their deaths, kept the sadness at bay, helped her grieve. And she is afraid that, after what happen with the rings, he might feel that he doesn't deserve to be able to create. So she offers, she insist, on him going to her workshop. Trying to get back to sculpture or pottery, like when he was a kid.

He is not ready to get back to jewelsmith, and he won't be for a time. Spending time with her long lost grandmother and connecting with craftmanship from another side sounds like a good way to start his new life (pottery in particular sounds nice for him, because there won't be the loud sounds of surfaces being hit, and it also allows him to make things that can be used and might be of need for others). So he accepts.

fifa world cup 2026 groups except their broken up into nfl divisions … group of death gets games in nfc east cities 😅😅

which means that there's an equal chance of every team in that group of death playing phenomenally or of them all being absolute shit

there's also one match that's randomly assigned to london to complete the "world cup 2026 international series"

something about the color in primos outfits and his independence .... like when we see him in the cornflower blue fit, while technically he is under salvatore, he’s striking out to do something on his own, not at anyone’s direction? and then up until that last episode salvatore is still in charge so he’s back to the traditional color palette ?? idk i can’t remember the exact timeline of outfits vs salvatores death but that’s the first thing that came to mind

WOW I THINK U HAVE SOMETHING HERE... i love the cornflower blue outfit as like a midpoint between the darks and the lights which is a really clever place to put primo for an “intro” (i know he shows up earlier eating his bisghetti but like his most striking introduction is in the sunflower scene bc he gets to say words and i honestly think unless you’re looking for him in that early pasta scene then you wouldn’t pay much attention to him at all) 

and i have also noticed that when they were dressing him they reused certain pieces a lot – he recycles shirts and trousers, only has the one leather jacket until he buys the red ensemble once he has money to throw around (also it is SUCH an interesting thing from a character perspective that primo gets money and buys a new outfit)... so the cornflower blue fit is interesting also because we never see it again after his first episode, like for example he never wears JUST the shirt with his other pair of pants etc etc

also also interesting that in the “all alone” scene with paul’s shadow puppets he is wearing a lighter shirt, looks like it’s cream or light brown, and if we’re going with the theory that the lighter clothes/different palette is a kind of departure from salvatore then that is... Woof...

looking at the cornflower blue outfit from this one particular angle is SO interesting too because he is literally...the same colour as the sky... it’s such an intense dutch angle and it really Establishes primo as like, he is as big and endless as the sky......

i’ve had some half formed thoughts on the use of handheld vs steady camera shots too – i’m pretty sure that almost universally, the gettys get still, composed shots while the calabrians get handheld shaky shots that will NOT be still, and the camera also swings around wildly when it’s following the calabrians (the only other time it does this so obviously is when chace physically moves the camera himself at the start of the last episode), so the camera is never still around them because they’re in a process of movement and change, whereas the gettys are stagnant and rooted so they get a camera that just Observes and is very very still. it also very much makes you feel like you’re Part of the calabrians’ story and very immersed in it – when the camera moves like you can tell there’s somebody holding it, it feels more real, right? like a documentary – whereas the opposite for the gettys makes you feel very distanced, like it’s all been staged and rehearsed. like obviously this isn’t entirely one way or the other and i’m sure there are scenes that don’t follow this metric BUT GENERALLY SPEAKING i think it’s what they were going for lol.

anyway this all came up because i just wanted to point out how much that shot of him standing on the roof of the car shudders like the camera is scared of him. love that for him

i love the rainbow armband and i love how you said you were inspired by manuel neuer because he is an icon!

Of course he is 🥰 we need more football players like him to fuck off homophobes 😘

[wernerherzogs]

lol i saw your tags on the leon goretzka gif and i am just here to say that germany nt fans by and large are soooo done with jogi löw he ruined the last world cup and he’s trying his best to ruin this euros in his last tournament as head coach ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I SEE thank you so much for the info!!! i'm only a casual football fan at best tbh and i was under an impression that getting to run a team for that long is some sort of record and that it must be due to the fact that everyone's satisfied with what he's been doing

[deheerkonijn]

have you read the gigolas fic ‘comes around again’ by scarletjedi? it’s one of my favs and i’d definitely be interested to hear your take on young! gimli

Hell yes! I think it was the first Gigolas longfic I read when I was getting into fandom-proper (LOTR is something you’re always into, but this if the first time I’ve, like, participated)

It is an amazing fic that super hits all my buttons, and contains the single best line in the history of Legolas:

If you’re reading this and haven’t read Comes Around Again, please give it a peek -- you won’t be disappointed! I love all the cultural building for the dwarves the author goes into - the world they create is soooo rich and dynamic!! :)

hey caroline, there was a moment in the first half where thomas had a really nice sliding tackle thing to keep the ball from going out ... i dont have an exact time stamp but it was before the first bayern goal , after the first leverkusen goal... i think somewhere around the 30th minute? you think you could gif it please!

turns out it was basically exactly on the 30 min mark so it was very easy to find! here it is!
