“Fíli had never actually had the chance to wear [the beads and braids of the Crown Prince].” Do you sometimes just sit and have overwhelming King Fili feels *stitches heart back into chest*

AUGH. 

Yes. *wibbles* He would have been so wonderful. Not that Dain wasn’t incredible, and I believe wholeheartedly that he was the best possible King Erebor could have had during the Ring War… but Fili didn’t even get a chance to find out what kind of leader he would be. NNNNGH.

Stupid Dwarves, breaking my heart.

I’m having a bunch of Eomer/Fili/Kili feels. Because Eomer’s position is similar to both of theirs – he’s the king’s nephew, the second heir, and is responsible. Fili and/or Kili could easily have been in his position if things went a little differently in the Hobbit.

(OHGOSH I THOUGHT YOU MEANT SHIPPING THEM AT FIRST WHOOPS HAHAHAHA)

Arrrrrgh. ARRRRGH. *hugs them all* Auuuuuuugh. 

Also Faramir. (Tolkien seems to have a thing for replacing the putative heirs. Meanie.)
