To the Nonny who’s not a fan of Bagginshield; nor am I AND LOOK WHO’S PLAYING GIMLI IN THE PODFIC. I had a while of being *actively annoyed* by Bagginshield, and honestly in most cases, I still don’t get it. The characterisations and motivations don’t work for me, and besides which, I tend to headcanon Bilbo as being hella aro-ace. EXCEPT IN SANSUKH, whose Bagginshield content has made me weep and laugh and whoop for vindicated joy when they communicated, when their relationship developed (cont)

Their characters are truer in Sansukh than nearly anywhere else I’ve read them, and their flaws are the things that make them sing together– Bilbo’s snappish, stubborn, secretive persnicketiness and Thorin’s tendency to hold onto things forever even to his own detriment. And it’s built so well that I *want* that for them, and I believe it. The relationship *makes sense* for who the characters are and who they grow to be. (cont)

Which is not to say that you would find it the same, but my two cents as someone who went into the fic from a position of RAWR BAGGINSHIELD GOD IT’S EVERYWHERE UGH WHY. Dets has worked some magic in a lot of ways, but this iteration of Thorin and Bilbo and their relationship is definitely a big one.

oh my GOD 

Cully, my star, Cully of the Golden Tonsils…! people will think I’m paying you!!

Thank you forever and ever and ever. *hugs, blubbering a little bit*

I just wanted to respond to the anon who didn’t know what to do, since they aren’t a bagginshield shipper? I’m personally not usually a fan of the ship, and I just wanted to tell them that this fic was absolutely worth it. It all developed so naturally and organically, I found myself shipping it (at least in the sansukh!verse) I still don’t actively search it out, but within the fic, I love it! (Ik this sounds weird, but I think it all has to do with Dets characterizations which are incredible!)

*blushes bright as the everlovin SUN* oh my gosh, Nonnie! oh my gosh

Toska

uweyvi:

“No single word in English renders all the shades of toska. At its deepest and most painful, it is a sensation of great spiritual anguish, often without any specific cause. At less morbid levels it is a dull ache of the soul, a longing with nothing to long for, a sick pining, a vague restlessness, mental throes, yearning. In particular cases it may be the desire for somebody of something specific, nostalgia, love-sickness. At the lowest level it grades into ennui, boredom.”

― Vladimir Nabokov

The jostling of the wagon lulled Muil into a drowsy state. She had not slept in sometime. A few days? A few weeks? She did not know. She was still paranoid about the newcomers that she had stumbled onto. Even in the… was it a month, that had past she still did not exactly trust them. But, Meluiwen trusted them short after they spent the night with them and had declared them ‘Fwends’ shortly after once she overheard them talking about their home and getting rid of the darkness. (Muluiwen didn’t go into detail as she ‘pwomised-ed’ and Muil respected that).

awww Muil 😥 

Laindawar, omg welp, you TRIED, kiddo. though you have the sensitivity and finesse of a shovel 

laksjdgfljahsdgkahgkahgfkahsgdfkahg!!!!! THANK YOU, EEEE THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

Hey it’s the anon who triggered that awfulwonderful sad post about Dis months and months ago. I read the new chapter. And I just? AHHHHHHHHH dead. It was perfect and makes me just want MOREEEEEE but also? DISITH QUEEN DIS YES YES YES PERFECT AND UGH SO PERFECT

I am super glad it lived up to expectations, Nonnie!

(I had that ask in the back of my mind, the whole time I was writing that scene, actually. So you are in part responsible for it too, Nonnie!)

Oh my god, so much, what a wild ride of a chapter, Thranduil likes Gimli now, holy shit (tbh I’m still not used to Gimli and Legolas hanging around in Erebor), DURIN for god’s sake, the poor poor shire, and DÍS oh Dís she finally gets to rest, it’s after 3am here so this is probably incoherent but as usual I can’t find it in myself to regret it

(it really does feel weird to have them together in Erebor – probably why i was all: ‘right, LET’S GET THEM OUT OF HERE NOW, we’ve done all we needed to do!’)

*hugs* hope you got some rest, Nonnie!

I personally am not a fan of Bagginshield (dunno why, I just don’t like it) but I am hugely curious about Sansukh!! WHAT DO I DO??? :'(

UMMM IDK HERE’S SOME IDEAS

OPTION A: read it and ignore the Bagginshield as best you can!

OPTION B: download the thing and remove all mentions of Bagginshield (necessitates this effort on your part, tho)

OPTION C: don’t worry about reading it and just listen to the music or smthg? 

hope that helps!
