The Rings of Power Summer Celebration 2024

WEEK 4: June 18 - 30

Another week has passed by, which means a new prompt!

This one might seem intimidating at first sight, and we who are not gifted at music need to think outside of the box.

Some examples what you could do:

Simply write a post about what is your favourite musical theme from the show and why.

Lots of you create songlists for characters/pairings, and this is the right prompt for those!

Come up with a fictional Middle-Earth album with fictional song titles.

You might also create a cover for such a fictional album.

If you are a visual artist, you can translate the way the music makes you feel into colours and/or patterns, or draw/paint what it makes you think of as you listen to it.

If you choose a character song you could also draw/paint what you associate with that specific character.

And let us not forget that Ainulindalë is part of ROP canon, too, so you might write a drabble / fanfic where it is mentioned.

If you choose a character song you could also draw/paint what you associate with that specific character.

You could write a fanfic that contains a scene where people are singing.

If you are a poet, you might try your hand at writing lyrics to a fictional Middle-Earth song. Including crack!songs.

And let us not forget that Ainulindalë is part of ROP canon, too, so you might write a drabble / fanfic that revolves around it.

We are sure there are more ways how to interpret this challenge, and we can't wait to see what you'll do!

We would also like to thank to all of you who have participated so far. ♥

This week’s prompt is MUSIC.

Important remarks:

The event is not limited to creators. If writing, drawing, etc. is not your forte, feel free to come up with character song lists, text posts about what you love about a character and why, post a link to your favourite fanfic, reblog your favourite art created by others... literally anything you can think about counts as long as it’s related to the prompt.

There is an ao3 collection where you can post your stories or artwork.

If you do not manage to finish your fanwork by June 30, do not be troubled! You can also post it later.

Remember to tag your contributions as #ROPCelebration24 or #ROPSummer24

You can find more details on the event in the dedicated post.

On one hand I like Beastars because it has some of the best worldbuilding I've seen in anime and the characters are great and the art is pretty

But I also like it because it asks the real important questions like "what if every character in a romantic drama was ace and had weird kinks"

[stories-by-rie]

how to feel excited about my own projects again

[goatsandgangsters]

jfc salt in the fucking wound

SO I FINALLY, AFTER FOUR YEARS, TESTED POSITIVE FOR COVID

would you like to know. the ONLY place I have gone in the entire last week. the only place?

hauling up to boston to go to my job :))) that I am leaving :)))) because of how often they make me commute to boston :))))))) the job that I just gave my two weeks notice at on monday :))))))))

Every episode of Ahsoka that doesn't have Zeb in it is a little bit more bearable if you simply operate on the base assumption that he will show up eventually. so you can just say to yourself "it's at most four weeks until zeb shows up. at most four more weeks." it contains the madness

evereyone pray for me i have an interview with one of the conservation corps tomorrow snd im so scareds about it. shaking like a little wet dog.

[damthosefandoms]

damn they’re gonna have nothing to talk about during the stable scene in season eight huh

[californiaquail]

that was probably the worst day i've had at work so far which is saying QUITE a bit not even counting the potential rabies exposure. even the one remaining tech (again the only person doing most of the work) is talking about threatening to quit (for the second time) because of the vet's bullshit.

Now I'm introducing a board so she will have clear criteria for starting and ending her retrieves in heel position.

This was just an intro session so very easy, just stand on the board until released. She already understands the board (from her conditioning course) and heel position so it was simple to put them together. Next steps are to fade the big lure onto the board and waiting longer to release her from the board.

It's crazy to think that she's just a baby! Not even six months! She's doing so so so good, I'm so proud of her.

i swear to god. if i have covid. i will scream.

[hythlodaes]

i think the thing about work rn is that i'm more frustrated that i can't understand the logic behind my DMs decisions more than i am about the actual situation

in no way does it make sense that it takes over two months to promote someone already with the company. it's been three weeks since we got approval from our regional manager and he STILL hasn't gotten his promotion

literally what the hell

[the-everqueen]

i am Overwhelmed and really only have myself to blame

[stars-inthe-sky]

UGH.

[ranger-kellyn]

made a spreadsheet to better help me visualize how i'm managing my time and u g h i'm so sick of work being the primary activity.
