“so gimli, how have you and legolas been on your journeys?” “oh, he’s been spending a lot of time on his knees if you know what i mean…. wait why are you all laughing? it’s just because, y’know, he has to get on his knees to be face to face with me….. oh for christ sakes GET YOUR MINDS OUTTA THE GUTTER”

(you just know that by this point, Bofur and Gimris are choking and hyperventilating and rolling with laughter, while Gimli scowls indiscriminately at everything, and Legolas wordlessly and ever-so-slowly turns a very fetching shade of puce)

Gimizh-inna-tree nonnie again! When Gimizh FINALLY meets his New Uncle Legolas (cue blushing elf), Gimizh insists his New Uncle go tree-climbing with him.

And then boasts for three days straight, because he has never seen anyone so good at tree-climbing ever.

So nyah, eat rocks, meanies! *pokes out tongue*

Different Anon – but now I’m just imagining Gimli staring intently at Cirdan and following him around and asking constant questions, and Leggy getting irrationally jealous. Cirdan is a mixture of disturbed and flattered by all the attention.

OH MY GOD

I can imagine Gimli being all

Bonus Background Legolas being all

that thing about elves being able to grow beards just makes me imagine some how [ inset implausible thing here ] gimli being around when Legolas reaches his third life cycle…. he’d do it just to make gimli gawk at him

I imagine that Gimli would find it very distracting.

~~HOT DAMN HUMMINA, ELF~~

(but Gimli’s own beard would still be the most magnificent, ofc…. oh my god. I sense even more competition in their future!!!)

ziankali:

hello, i’m not dead, just busy trying to escape reality. sometimes i still think about modern lotr aus.

Just.. legolas getting a tattoo for the first time

(gimli had to hold his hand)

asparklethatisblue:

remember somewhere in a past life I promised to sketch some things and then I just didn’t bother posting them? Anyway, imagine if Legolas and Gimli decided to get married in the Shire!

thesherrifssecretpolice:

another thing for @determamfidd!

so i suppose that, just like dwarven mourning marks, wedding marks must also exist, right?

here’s my take on our favorite elf/dwarf couple’s: legolas’ is a dwarves knot, over his heart, while gimli’s is an elvish tree, on his right arm. (both of them are positioned over the very thing that keeps them alive… (or i just started drawing gimli’s on his arm and couldn’t reposition it with that glorious beard in the way.)) bonus lovesick gazing.

i hope you like it!

SHRIEKING

oh my god oh my whoa oh my GOODNESS – these are absolutely glorious!! I utterly LOVE this idea, you total genius! I LOVE THE DESIGNS. THOSE SHOULDER-PIECES, the ARMBAND, THE DWARVEN KNOT IN FOREST GREEN

also nnnngh lovesick gazing is my very fave gazing, this is SO DAMN AWESOME

THANK YOU, THANK YOU SO SO SOS OS OSO SO SO MUCH!

Comes Around Again-Chapter 26

Ghostly Affairs – Setari – The Lord of the Rings – All Media Types [Archive of Our Own]

setaripendragon:

So, for any of my lovely followers who have read Sansûkh, here is a little thing set in that universe. It’s primarily Éowyn/Faramir and Éowyn/Frerin, but there is, of course, Legolas/Gimli there too. This is basically me writing a happy polyamorous ending for my new favourite OT3.

It is a continuation/sequel of To Stand Like a Flag which is a lovely and amazing fic that you really, really need to read first, if you haven’t already. Otherwise, this fic will not make much sense.

SERIOUSLY THOUGH THIS IS SO LOVELY ❤

slkdgljshda – thank you!
