GIGOLAS FLUFF. BEARD BRAIDING! Omg Legolas looks so freaking pleased with himself. Hands on Thighs are my thing okay. This was inspired by little convos I had with Poplitealqueen and with Determamfidd. Some adjustments still need to be made but overalll I’m rather pleased with this. What do you all think?

Slightly buzzed and reblogging this to show my buddy. God I like how this came out.

Astrin’s cousins Fíli and Kíli left to fight the forces of Mordor over two years ago, but there’s been no word from them for the last six months. Being a woman of action and the one who always is there to get them out of trouble, Astrin disguises herself as the male warrior Gimli and joins the army to fight for them. But the regiment she joins is anything but typical. With troublesome hobbits, a religious fanatic, the undead, a golem, and even an elf, are the greatest dangers to come from her fellow man? And what secrets are they all holding onto?

A parody of Terry Prachett’s “A Monstrous Regiment”

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! KEN, YOU POSTED IT!

If you like Terry Pratchett, Gigolas, femslash and awesome writing, go read this ❤

Ahhh, watching the other shoe drop about Thorin’s flower motifs was delightful, and the dark name revelation was fantastic! Back in Ch.34 I really enjoyed your exploration of Bilbo’s anger; I loved the realistic acknowledgement that you can be profoundly in love with someone and furiously angry with them at the same time and that it’s not a contradiction, that love isn’t the end of the argument. And their mix of painfully intense emotion and hands-clamped-over-the-face awkwardness is my jam :)

Ahhh, thank you! Thank you SO much! Oh, you’ve made my day: I’m so so HAPPY you’re on-board with that.

It is precisely what I was going for, and I am absolutely so touched that you feel that way too. The gargantuan invasion of Bilbo’s privacy is not something that can be lightly brushed aside in the first place – even after Bilbo’s initial anger in Ch34 – and yeah, I wanted to show that a relationship (or even a possible relationship) doesn’t necessarily crumble to bits just because the participants had a fight. Addressing problems is important. Disagreement can be healthy, and can lead to a better understanding of each other. Thus both the Gigolas and Bagginshield scenes in Ch38!

OH SO AWKWARD, AWKWARD CENTRAL, MAXIMUM AWKWARDNESS LEVELS ACHIEVED, SOON TO REACH CRITICAL AWKWARD OVERLOAD. I’m so happy you liked it, Nonnie! It’s my jam too 🙂

(Being an awkward sort of duck myself, I found it very easy to write that bit!! 😀 )

psst. *bilbo and thorin were in love and gandalf is shipper trash* *throws confetti and jumps into a barrel flying down the river*

first off this is 100% fact

second Gandalf should have just ran a middle earth dating show

omg new series on Bravo. please imagine the preview for it.

“This summer, we follow one eccentric wizard on his quest to make the most unlikely of matches happen. Middle Earth Match Maker”[cut to confessional type interviews for each character]

Gandalf: There’s just something about seeing two people fall in love when they never were expecting it. That’s the thing about me, I don’t have people come to me. I seek out the people who don’t think that they need it. 

Legolas: I used to like this girl, a really long time ago. It took years to get over her. After that I never wanted to be with anyone again. My friend Aragorn helped to mellow me out, helped me to heal. I joined the fellowship with him, thinking that it would be something to help me even more. I guess I was still trying to find myself. I just never thought that I would find love again. Especially not in a stubborn red headed dwarf. [laughs nervously] I guess you could say I have a thing for red heads.

Gimli: Aye that smug bastard. Do you know the other day we went out looking for orcs, its a friday night tradition, and he swears he killed 12 but I know it was only 11 because one of them accidentally stabbed the other and that doesn’t count. Anyways, we just wanted to get our fun in before we head out.

Frodo: I never really saw myself with anyone, just wanted a simple life like this. Sam was always in my life, always my best friend. I just regret that it took our journey for me to realize it. 

Sam:[smiles fondly]Yeah, I used to trim Frodo’s bush. Ummm, the one outside the window. His window. I used to garden for him and his uncle when his uncle got too old to be out in the sun all day. I never watched Frodo in his bedroom.

Thorin: I don’t want that sneaking old wizard taking credit for all of this! I would like to think that perhaps under other circumstances Bilbo and I could have met on our own.

Bilbo:[rolling his eyes] Thorin is a firm believer that if this was another life we would still know each other. I would like to think that too but he does have to admit that Gandalf does play some part in us meeting. Plus he’s still a little grumpy because I wouldn’t let him have any cookies last night after dinner. He’s gotten a little too pudgy and I might have to start letting out the seem on his pants. 

Gandalf: 

( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

but Dets, I need to know, someone was watching over Gimli when he and Legolas talked about their feelings? And more important, what was the reaction to ‘lets go take a bath’ thing? I NEED TO KNOW PLEASE this chapter was so good omg I need more *sighs* Guess I have to read all over again

Nope, Legolas and Gimli had a bit of privacy for once! Nobody dead was watching. Which is good, really – it was a tremendously personal conversation.

Well, let’s just say that the rating for Sansukh itself is never ever going to change. BUT. I intend to take that bath-scene a little… further, in the Sansukh Appendices
