I’ve been getting notifications on this all morning, and it’s weirdly appropriate – Tet, the black cat, died on Thursday. I’m pretty sad, but it makes me smile to see this again, to remember all the good times we had together. ❤
thranduil sleeps calmer knowing even if his son married a dwarf at least he married The Supermodel dwarf and singlehandedly crushed the hopes of single dwarves and dwarrowdams everywhere
DETS YOU GOTTA SEE THIS
okay so i’ve already reblogged this, i know, but preserved-in-salt Thranduil and scorchingly-jawdroppingly-hot Gimli is everything i love forever
the best lord of the rings thing ive seen is the headcanon that gimli is like Prince Tier of beauty for dwarves and is absolutely stunning and legolas is like, for an elf, absolute butt ugly like relatively and everyones always like gimli how could you marry such a shit tier ugly ass elf and gimli is like ach.. nae…i love him

@determamfidd here’s Aragorn after the long awaited gigolas kiss
This scene made me act almost identically to Aragorn lol
AHHHHH DARLING STRIDERPANTS, it is okay, it is over now (lol not it isn’t, it’s about to get worse hahahaha)
THIS IS AWESOME – I love his expression SO MUCH – just so much weariness and relief! THANK THE VALAR, I can finally FINALLY FINALLY stop pretending i don’t know what these two honourable DORKS are thinking, finally I can sleep without suffocating in an atmosphere made of 90% longing and 10% idiocy
you’ve got his body language down SO PERFECTLY –
he is so so Done, his new title will be King of Gondor Arnor and DONE
i can practically hear the thud as his head hits the mast! And the flop of his arms, the sag of his back, lmao – such a brilliant choice of pose, and I ADORE YOUR SHADING, ahhh! This is so awesome, thank you forever and ever and ever!!
idk idk i love legs and gimli terribly much i wanted to draw their profiles
i do hope we all know of this post because i live my life by it
i thought it’d be an interesting coincidence if legolas was considered plain by elvish standards for features they’d associate with dwarves like square jawline, short forehead, a musclier build, marks on the skin, a short nose that sticks out rather than an elven ideal of a long flat one, split ends and an unkempt hair; and evil tongues would even say he’d be better off with those ‘naugrim’ and in the end he really goes off and actually marries a dwarf
Yes, we are going to see Yavanna! She will turn up 🙂 Quite soon, in fact!
I’ve written a bit about how I see her before, here! But here we go, I’m a little inspired now, and so have a wee flight of fancy:
She is my untamed goddess of moss and jungles and algae and scrubland. She loves the flytrap and the fennel, the grass and the deathcap mushroom alike. She fills the needles of her mammoth conifers with near-indigestible resin so that they cannot be eaten. She covers the cactus in thorns, covers the apple in flowers and fruit, and covers the spreading fig in tangling vines that will one day pull the giant to the ground. She cups the fern-leaves to house a tadpole, and fills the pitcher-plant in acid to kill its prey. She pours scents both sweet and stinking from her hands. She scatters the wheat that is grown and harvested – and then covers the resulting bread in fungus. Rot and renewal make up the rhythm of her steps – and they are slow and inexorable. She has the endless dry patience of the Resurrection plant, its heart curled tight, waiting for rain in the desert.
Her Ents stride in her wake, and their feet soak up the decay and rebirth of her passing.
Bees sing in her retinue, and beautiful flowers nod their poisonous heads as she goes.
🙂
(so, i may have recently re-watched ‘Life of Plants’, and it makes me think all over again that ‘HOLY HECK YAVANNA MUST BE FIERCE AS FUCK’)
Aw Yiss
