A proposal: instead of Glorfindel’s hair falling like a normal person’s, instead it goes up. Or more or less so. Pretty much just in all directions besides what direction hair is meant to go. Even if you headcanon Glorfindel’s hair to be very long, he is literally the sun as in it is impossible to not see him anywhere. Plus, his height only adds to the effect.

oh my god. Now I am imagining a kind of giant golden dandelion-clock

(the one shaking him is totally Elrond)

@determamfidd I honestly couldn’t resist. Bob Ross wishes his hair was this fluffy. 

oh my god squid, that is ADORABLE AND ALSO GORGEOUS AHHHHH

I found a cool thing yesterday! I thought you might appreciate. (The puzzles are really intricate like holy crap.)

(It’s not official, though, BUT that means it’s not restricted to only the movie depictions, which means Silmarillion stuff as well.)

*heavy breathing*

So. A guy who calls himself “Lord of Gifts” has a big workshop in a land full of holly where he tells a bunch of elves to make cool objects. Later he travels around the world dropping off these cool things as presents for people who he thinks show potential.

I’m not sure where I’m going with this, but I choose to believe it would work if I could think about it long enough.

SANTATAR

He sees you when you’re sleeping
And he knows when you’re awake
He knows you’ve kept the Three from him
Give them up now for goodness sake

So I was staring at my Middle Earth map poster for no reason today

and for the first time, I notice this blip down in the southwest corner…

THE FUCKING MENELTARMA’S STILL THERE

let me rephrase

the Meneltarma of Numenor, the giant mountain atop which was a sacred shrine to Eru, still stands above the waves despite the total destruction of the island by Eru.

as @samwise-po-tay-toe-gamgee so beautifully put it, HE SANK EVERYTHING BUT THE FUCKING SHRINE TO HIMSELF

granma earwen was tiny? but galady and her bros are tol that means finarfin must have been GIANT

tosquinha:

I don’t think GIANT defines him, just as tall as his kids I guess? And short Earwen admitedly comes out of nowhere but my own nonsense wishes (weirdly enough, sinceTelerin and Sindar are some of the tallest elves to me) so just bear with me here.I freely  admit I follow kinda loose genetics rules a with these elves ha 

Anyway since you asked, a long post to follow how I’ve been headcanoning this lineage for a long while, until we get to tall Arwen who began the discussion.
