So, let me get this straight: Dragon, created by Morgoth (we think) that broods on gold, spreading its nasty dragony influence all over the place like dragon dandruff
Gold which Morgoth was able to use as a conduit for his power (wow, laying the parable down thick and obvious there, Professor), thus amplifying the nasty of the dragon dandruff
and all the while a shiny bit of bling that Morgoth’s #1 dude Sauron made is chilling in a nearby Hobbit’s pocket.
Christ on a crutch.
Fuck yes, Thorin’s awesome and fortitude should be screamed from the skies.
Thorin from Chapter 31 of Sansukh. ‘But I Made You A Pen’ I even drew a little pen because why not. I love drawing the characters for this Fanfiction, it is just soo much fun! Hope you like it @determamfidd
AHHHH OMFG THE FUNNY/SAD OAKENFAIL MOMENT AHHH I LOVE ITTTTT
oh gosh,thank you so so much! HIS EYES ARE JUST ‘but – but – but – but’ and such detail and work on his hair! Awwww, poor sad puppy, give him a hug. 😀 It’s wonderful, thank you thank you!!
AWW WAIT WHAT, I made you feel sorry for Sauron and not Mahal?! WHOOPS, author fail, whoooooops!!! 😀
eeep, yeah, the Sam moment, with the ‘I didn’t leave him’ – that was something I’ve wanted to write for AGES. So. Yep. *dodges the flying vegetables*
OOOH I am thrilled you liked the quiet little moment with Thorin and his decision about his beard! For such a short and unobtrusive little scene, it’s actually the culmination of a LOT of character threads and development, and lots of stuff that came before… like, a physical indication of just how far he has come, it’s actually a hugely big moment, wrapped up in a very small and gentle one 🙂
Hrera is my darling Queen of the Universe and I adore her lots.
HEHEHE, I am so happy you liked the letters, thank you! Thank you for a lovely comment and a lovely review, Nonnie!
I saved every letter they wrote me.
From the moment I bore them, I knew they were mine
You said they were mine
I thought they were mine…
Do you know what Vili said,
When he heard of your plans and designs?
He said: “Be careful of Thorin, love.
He will do what it takes to survive.”
You and your words
Overrode all their senses.
Your memories left them defenseless.
You built them palaces of our relics
You built cathedrals…
I’m rereading the letters they wrote me.
I’m searching and scanning for answers in every line.
For some kind of sign, and when they were mine
The world seemed to burn…
Burn….
You took all I held dear down with you.
The whole world saw how you brought my sons into their graves.
In reclaiming our home, you have spent our line…
Do you know what Balin said,
When I saw what you’d done?
He said: “He was brave and did what he could.
But he flew too close to the sun.”
You and your words, obsessed with our legacy!
Your greed and their sacrifice, senseless!
And you were paranoid at every twist and turn!
How ‘they’ would deceive you…
You, you, you, you….!
I’m erasing myself from the narrative.
Let future historians wonder how your sister
Reacted when you broke her heart.
You have torn it all apart, I’m watching it
Burn….
Burn….!
The world has no right to my heart!
No claim to the blood that they shed!
They don’t get to know what I said!
You took every memory, took everything here
That might have redeemed you!
You stole all the joy from my heart!
You’ve left me to bury the dead!
No life, only ashes instead!
And only the memories of when they were miiine!
….I hope that you
Burn…
(I AM SORRY)
Dets says: YOU SHOULD BE, god i have to record this, i have TO, goddamn it it’s beautiful
I finally found this little tidbit again! I thought you would like it 🙂 I wouldn’t be surprised if it was a big hit with all the dwarflings in Erebor (past and present!)
