(*whispers* I am actually very proud of all the Dwarves of Erebor and the way they deal with Gimizh’s shenanigans, tbh – if he was subject to extreme strictness or tight boundaries, he could easily become a very resentful and angry ‘problem’ child, given to lashing out due to frustration. But they understand that he’s at least 110% energy, 130% curiosity and 150% imagination, and they run with that. They give him space and tasks and limits that he can live within, and deal with it when he stuffs up -*puts on teacher hat* because Gimizh is pretty much a textbook kinaesthetic learner, he learns by doing, not reading or hearing, so yeah sorry I will stop whispering about my Gimizh-feels now)
AUGH YES YES FARAMIR, I AM SORRY NONNIE. As I was coming to the end of that scene it struck me just how much Faramir just lost, what he has to come to terms with. He hasn’t even had a moment to grieve for Boromir yet, ffs. And Denethor tried to kill him. And now Denethor is also dead, and in such a terrible way… it’s just. Yeah, Pippin and Merry absolutely moved on my behalf when they climbed over and gave that poor boy a hug. He really needs it.
