DETS I MAY CRY WHEN SANSUKH UPDATES

*hands over the tissues* It’s up 😉

Just out of curiosity, how and when did you decide to get a Tumblr blog?

uhhh about four years ago, I think, is the when!

And why: because I was bumbling along on AO3, as you do. In the intros to their fics, a few people mentioned their tumblr blog, and I went ‘ooooh, sounds shiny’ and signed up. My first fandom on Tumblr was Avengers.

retreading sansukh some thoughts: ANGSTY DURIN BOYS pls kill me they h u r t and everyone figuring out the gigolas before thorin and he’s just like wtf so GOOD and FRERIN MY SMOL BBY I LOVE HIM

sajhdglasjh aaaaaah ty!! THESE DURIN MEN (says Hrera in exasperation),

and lmao omg the gigolas reveal yes – eeeeeverybody knows, Sauron knows, the hecking BALROG knows before Thorin twigs to it. (HE JUST DOESN’T WANNA KNOW, tbh)

Frerin is indeed a smol golden bby, I love him too!

*hugs* thank you so much! I am so glad you’re enjoying the re-read! ❤

i just gotta clenches fist reread sansûkh for the fourth time to get me through finals week (you are a blessing)

awwww, thank you! *hugs* Good luck, you got this!

I got to the chapter in Sansûkh where they’re in Lothlorien and Thorin remarks on how Galadriel called it Khazad-dûm instead of Moria and then all I could think of was a Tumblr post like “Reminder that Moria is a slur :) ” and I started laughing so hard I’M SORRY

OH MY GOD HAHAHAHAHA

What a beautiful day to remember that Balrogs are inherently Maiar (◡‿◡✿)

Happy belated birthday!

Thank you so much, Nonnie! I had a lovely day! I got many lovely presents ❤ (MY NEW SHOWER STUFF IS DELISH, I SMELL LIKE A ZILLION ROSES)

HAPPY (late) BIRTHDAY DETS!!! I hope you had a lovely day :)

AWWW THANK YOU! I really did! My family made an epic fuss of me. My Dwarfling made me a card at daycare, and didn’t stop singing ‘happy birthday’ until yesterday, lmao.

When she gave me the card, she also said, ‘I’m proud of you, Mummy’ which = HAPPIEST TEARS OF MY LIFE. I mean, like… I say that to HER, it’s not supposed to be the other way around!!! If you could bottle a moment, heh ❤

Oh my, it is your birthday! Happy Birthday! With all my heart, I wish you a blissful and bountiful year to come. And wings for your pen and may Euterpe visit your dreams!

it was my bday yesterday, Nonnie! I am now an even older fart than I was before, heh. Even though Monday-birthdays are a bit bleh, I really did have a lovely day.

Awww, thank you! Those are some seriously beautiful and touching wishes, I am feeling mega-lucky! 😀
