@finweanladiesweek​ day five | ladies who [almost] married in I andreth saelind

          ‘I desire neither,’ [said Andreth.] ‘I was young and I looked on his flame, and now I am old and lost. He was young and his flame leaped towards me, but he turned away, and he is young still. Do candles pity moths?’

          ‘Or moths candles, when the wind blows them out?’ said Finrod. ‘Adaneth, I tell thee, Aikanáro the Sharp-flame loved thee. For thy sake now he will never take the hand of any bride of his own kindred, but live alone to the end, remembering the morning in the hills of Dorthonion.’

—The History of Middle-earth: Volume X: Morgoth’s Ring, “Athrabeth Finrod ah Andreth”

i entirely get why people are like "actually knights were historically land-owning nobles waging war on people" and reminding people that idealised modern conceptions of knights are not historically accurate, it's just really really funny given that people have been idealising the institution of knighthood since like. the twelfth century or earlier, go take it up with fucking chrétien de troyes

#look I love chrétien de troyes and thomas malory as much as the next nerd #but let's not pretend their romantic version of the knights weren't also super messed up #the amount of domestic violence is 💀 #among other things

Percy Jackson but Hestia has a cabin. that is where the unclaimed go because she goddess of home and family. Demigods get claimed faster because when they show up Hestia glares at her siblings, nieces and nephews untill they claim them.
