How much wine is Thrandy going to need when he understands he is now related to Thorin?
All the wine.
All. Of. It.
Will Laindawar make an appearance in Sansukh? (Help, I think I’m becoming a Laerophen fan)
He sure will, and VERY soon! We are catching up with the Battle Under the Trees very soon. Thrandy and Laindawar are going to make an appearance… and we’re going to discover what Galadriel and her crew have been up to!
(Nope, no help here Nonnie, sorry – succumb to his awkwardface haughtiness and total helplessness in front of children!)
~is on anon due to shyness~ i’ve got 2 questions hun: 1- who is the dwarfling? I don’t follow. 2- I REALLY LOVE SANSUKH and there might be a chance I’ll be working as a translator someday, and I do realise you have like, a little team of people who organise the podfic and stuff, so I really wanted to know if anyone’s already volunteered to translate Sansukh and side-fics to portuguese. If not, well, I volunteer…
Hey Nonnie! Don’t be shy, I am a tiny dork lady in a big fuzzy red dressing gown.
1. The Dwarfling is the online nickname somebody (can’t remember who? Might have been either notanightlight or flukeoffate, who are both amazeballs and wonderful) gave to my baby. I let on that I was pregnant last year, when I was about 13-14 weeks along. And within seconds the name ‘Dwarfling’ had been pinned on my bub, and so there we go!
(She is nearly a year old now! Her first birthday is the end of this month. She can crawl and cruise and ‘high-five!’ and we have ‘HI!’ complete with a little wave for a first word. She is entirely beautiful and wonderful and a brave, curious, clever, loving little soul. I am prouder of her than I can ever say.)
2. Wow! That’s an amazing offer, Nonnie! I am so so grateful and HECK – so excited! I will very thankfully take you up on that offer, if that’s okay by you – there are translations into Italian and Chinese thus far, but not Portuguese!
When you finish Sansûkh I’ll print it and I’ll make it an awesome hardcover book because your fic is perfect and deserve it ma’am (if you allow me, of course). Your fic changed my life. (And look! I have my clothes on! :D)
(I appreciate your lack of nakedness, thank you Nonnie 😉
And thank you so much for your beautiful words! I am thrilled you like it so much, that just makes me SO happy. *hugs* THANK YOUUUUU
Absolutely you may make a personal book of Sansukh! If I may add a teeny stipulation – it would have to be for your own consumption, though! No copies for others, PARTICULARLY not for profit. I don’t want Warner Bros, New Line or the Tolkien Estate coming after me with big big lawsuits!!
One of the (many) things I miss from the Hobbit movies is Oin and Gloin’s bickering. In the book they’re always arguing with one another (usually about lighting fires) and I love the idea of the movie versions bickering like children about silly things.

is there wifi in valinor
…I don’t know?
But it would explain the pool of Gimlin-zaram. It’s a Valinorean video streaming platform.
(’streaming’ hahahahaha PUNS PUNS EVERYWHERE)
Other dwarves occasionally spring sums on Gloin when he’s not expecting it (during training, in the pub, when he’s chasing his rambunctious kids) hoping to trip him up. It’s never worked.
They’ll never beat him, though they try!
When Glóin was a kid, Óin once made him an abacus for one of his name days. Glóin had it for YEARS. (Whether the abacus was any good is up for debate – idk if Óin is crafty like that ^^)
*hearts in eyes all the way* I LOVE IT
What do you think would happen if Middle-Earth dwarves and Discworld dwarves ever met?
“What Misty Mountains? Does he mean up by Copperhead?”
“Nah, he ain’t a Lancre Dwarf.”
“Uberwald, you reckon? There’s MMBU, after all*.”
“I dunno, think he’s a bit daft. He doesn’t even know the words to Gold, Gold, Gold, Gold**!”
“Poor bugger. Definitely daft. Look, he doesn’t even know how to quaff properly! It’s landing in his mouth. And when we gave him a rat-onna-stick, he went off on a proper rant – about honour of all things!”
“Shame! D’you think he’d mind if I had the rat then?”
“Nah, go for it. Only there’s no ketchup.”
“Oh. Well, no wonder he went off about honour. You don’t have a rat-onna-stick without ketchup. S’a mug’s game, giving a bloke a rat-onna-stick without ketchup.”
*Miles and Miles of Bloody Uberwald.
**The all-time classic.
