ridersofbrohon:

so the latest chapter of the ever amazing Sansûkh went up not too long ago, and i’m.
i’ve only read through the first section, and i cannot stop smiling. i probably annoyed my sister with my giggling and gasping and full out snorting at the predicament Gimli and Legolas have got themselves into.
i am so grateful for this chapter.
Christmas time always sucks for me (yay seasonal depression! -_-), and not even 5 minutes before i got the notification that chapter 45 had been published, i was having a liiiitle bit of an episode™
but this chapter
just. the absolute love that shown in Gimli for both his family and Legolas and his regret that he may have hurt any of his family but his unapologetic firmness in his love for Legolas that not Mordor itself could stop them.
and Legolas wanting SO. BAD. to make a good first(and second) impression with Gimli’s family and the quiet acceptance he has of his father’s feelings towards his relationship with Gimli.
Laerophen standing against his father in support of Legolas and Gimli.

this chapter is my new go to for when i have a rough day

LYRICS

Though my heart may be heavy,
Though I wander afar,
I will come to the morning
Over sea and under star.

Where you go there will I follow,
For you are my guiding star.
I will never fear tomorrow.
There is comfort where you are.

Though the starlight is fading (I am lost in the dark),
Though the night gathers fast (take my hand).
There’s a new world awaiting (with you here by my side)
Lay your burden down at last (at last).

There’s a light on the horizon,
There’s a voice that calls my name,
There’s a place that I belong,
There’s an ever-burning flame.

Far from hope and from home (far from all that I knew),
Full of sorrow and fear (meleth nîn),
You are never alone (ghivashelê I’m near, I am near)
I will always be here (I am here).

Out of dark to the day’s rising,
Death itself will I defy,
For the road goes ever on,
To your arms will I fly.

I was worn, I was weary (annon ûr, nîn angin),
With suspicion and shame (Âzyungel),
Now I stand in the sunlight (now I stand in the light)
And my heart it calls your name (and my heart calls your name).

And the road takes me onward,
Takes me far from my door.
Never now will I falter,
Since you taught me how to soar.

I will wait for you forever,
I will be here when you call,
And if ever you should stumble,
I will catch you if you fall.

There’s a light on the horizon,
There’s a ship upon the sea,
Now the world is so much wider,
For you wander it with me.

And the sun shines out the clearer,
Golden glory in the blue!
There’s a light on the horizon,
And it’s guiding me to you.
