The Lord of the Rings Meme | ten scenes (2/10)

Farewell to Lórien.

This is my favorite fucking scene. 

If you’ve read the Silmarillion, you know who Fëanor was. If you don’t, Fëanor was the dickhead who created the Silmarils: three indescribably beautiful and magical jewels that contained the light and essence of the world before it became flawed. They were the catalyst for basically every important thing that happened in the First Age of Middle Earth.

It is thought that the inspiration for the Silmarils came to Fëanor from the sight of Galadriel’s shining, silver-gold hair.

He begged her three times for single strand of her beautiful hair. And every time, Galadriel refused him. Even when she was young, Galadriel’s ability to see into other’s hearts was very strong, and she knew that Fëanor was filled with nothing but fire and greed.

Fast forward to the end of the Third Age.

Gimli, visiting Lorien, is also struck by Galadriel’s beauty. During the scene where she’s passing out her parting gifts to the Fellowship, Galadriel stops empty-handed in front of Gimli, because she doesn’t know what to offer a Dwarf. Gimli tells her: no gold, no treasure… just a single strand of hair to remember her beauty by.

She gives him three. Three.

And this is why Gimli gets to be an Elf Friend, people. Because Galadriel looks at him and thinks he deserves what she refused the greatest Elf who ever lived—- and then twice that. And because he has no idea of the significance of what she’s just given him, but he’s going to treasure it the rest of his life anyway.

Just look at that smile on Legolas’s face in the last panel. He gets it. He knows the backstory. And I’m pretty sure this is the moment he reconsiders whether Elves and Dwarves can’t be friends after all.

Everyone look at this great fucking post

There are posts and then there are posts

Not to mention that Gimli is super polite and bashful about it. He’s all “I’m not expecting you to give it, my lady, but you asked me to name what my heart desires, and I’d like one hair from your golden head but srsly, not expecting you to give it to me~” and like he’s just so sweet and adorable and shy and honestly I love that scene so much!!!

Sad headcanon: Thrain teaches Bombur and Dain how to deal with being a grandparent from in Mahal’s Halls, having grandchildren you just want to take care of, cuddle, spoil a bit, and able to do nothing at all until they are old enough to pass on. He felt the same way about Fili and Kili, so he helps them deal with the bittersweet feelings.

oh goddddd

*clutches chest*

OH GODDD

but that’s totally perfect. TOTALLY perfect. Thrain would be the most understanding, gentle and yet matter-of-fact person to help them deal with the terrible conflicting tug of war between joy and sorrow. 

beecups:

The thing i love/hate about the scene where Gimli mourns at Balin’s tomb is that when you first watch LOTR you watching it from the rest of the Fellowship’s view. You feel sorry for Gimli in that sort of “wow, that really sucks” kind of way, while at the same time worrying about the evil lying so close in the darkness.

But then after watching The Hobbit trilogy, you see this scene again and now you’re watching it from Gimli’s point of view. Now you’ve spent time with Balin and Ori, like Gimli would have done, so when you see the tomb you remember Balin’s exasperated smile, and when you see the skeleton you see timid Ori knitting away at something.

You watch it knowing what Gimli is actually going through, and why he needs time to stop in the middle of such danger to mourn the loss of those he loved.
