Summary: Gimli loves Legolas, and Legolas loves Gimli. Their biggest problem is how incredibly weird dwarf food is. Except when elf food is even weirder.
Now that gigolas has passed 1k on AO3, let’s have a gigolas week to get us closer to 2k!
The week will run March 26-April 1
Please reply to this post with theme suggestions!
!!!
suggestion 1. Lords of Aglarond and Ithilien (haven’t seen a lot of fic about this era!)
suggestion 2. Through the Eyes of Others (e.g. Gandalf, Galadriel, Aragorn, Eomer, etc etc)
suggestion 3. In Another Universe (stick them in another fictional universe of your choosing. Pern, Hogwarts, Westeros, Earthsea, Discworld, Doctor Who, Marvel, DC, Arrakis, Fantastica, Star Wars, you name it)
Update: she posted a link to the song on her facebook page. Which means she loved it. Also I am still somewhat freaked out about the fact that my fifty-something year old mother uses fandom speak and ship names -.-;
Tell your mum ahhhh thank you so very much (I am an older fan myself, so…! *fistbumps her*) and I am so thrilled she enjoyed it!! Thank you too for telling me, Nonnie!
ohmigosh, really?! Ahhh, thank you, you are so kind! *blushes like mad* oh wow, I am all fuzzy-brained now, you shall make me tongue-tied!
I am hoping you mean the recent Gigolas week song, “Let’s Call the Whole Thing Off” – if so, there should be a ‘download’ link just underneath the play button!
In very late honor of Gigolas Week (because my dissertation prevented me during actual Gigolas Week), here is a podfic of one of @determamfidd‘s contributions: Both the Sweet and Bitter, and beautiful Gigolas story from Arwen’s point of view. Thank you so much, Dets, for recording permission!
SCREAMING BC THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL AND TOUCHING AND READ WITH SUCH SENSITIVITY
I have been having something of a hiatus, lately. First, I’ve been doing a fair bit of travelling… then work went bonkers, it’s all been piling up! I also had a bit of a scare recently. Plus someone decided to write a ‘review’ that was really just an excuse for bashing me, which really shook me up and completely sapped any desire I had to write at all. I’ve been lying low, but now I am taking baby steps to rekindle my inspiration and my fandom activities!
So yeah – I hope to have the new chapter (AW YISS WE’RE OFF TO MOUNT DOOOOOOOM MOTHERCUDDLERS) out very soon!
In the meanwhile, there is much gigolasy goodness going on (heh alliteration) in the form of gigolas week! I wrote two things for it: Both the Sweet and the Bitter (Arwen POV), and a Middle-Earth/Discworld crossover,
what else, what else… oh, I also sang a thing! If you ever wanted to hear an Australian trying a Scottish accent whilst singing Golden Age jazz, your day has arrived 🙂
I do apologise for the long delay. I am spending today writing, though (and also hopefully singing as well) so there will be more stuff in the very near future!!
Aw Yiss
