Lol yeah, that would be a little more obviously not a Dunedain song

I think mortal children raised in Rivendell should get to have a lil' outdated set of cultural references, as a treat.

Aragorn swears by the Grinding Ice (he got it from Glorfindel). The other rangers are slightly amused. He hums songs that sound strange coming from a human mouth and are very definitely not up to date even for elves, with Doom et all, and darkness in the North.

He has no concept whatsoever that something might have been fashionable three centuries ago, and instead he's got a wide arsenal of anecdotes about long dead Doriathrim he never has met nor shall meet.

It's not that he's maladjusted to living among the Dúnedain. He just goes above and beyond.

#gotta love the Noldor and their songs about their Doom

Riders of Rohan! What news from the Mark?

#darkness in the North could be interpreted to mean Angmar #of course it wasn't written for that #but it Could be that #aragorn #headcanons #lord of the rings

so I've been thinking about Gil-galad lately (as you do) and. well. there's a horrifying prospect that the fandom seems to be sleeping on. namely:

and where he dwelleth none can say

if he had been reembodied, or if he was in the Halls of Mandos, don't you think at least some people would be able to say where he was?

#hate me for this one if you want #I said what I said #silmarillion #lord of the rings #gil galad #my posts

Lúthien Tinúviel; Princess of Doriath, with Huan the Hound of Valinor

I know I know I keep changing her design, with some key elements staying, but I think I have it this time! I´m sure!! till next time where I might change it again But then again she is half Maia so she could probably shapeshift

I wanted her to look as uncanny/Eldritch as possible so I tried to give her too-big pupils, an almost mammal nose, a too long neck, and her deer ears - I wanted to include feathers somehow because I hc Dior has a feathered back as if he were supposed to grow wings but only got the feathers, so my excuse is that she can "shapeshift" a bit to look like a blend between elf, deer, and bird - but I DID give her claws!

#luthien #gorgeous!!! #art #silmarillion

Lots of people talk about hair braiding in their LOTR fics, especially among the elves and the Rohirrim. But I don’t think we talk about it enough among the horses. If Rohan is a place that puts so much effort and care into their horses and they frequently braid their own hair, then they’re definitely braiding some manes and tails, too, right? And if the elves are putting decorative bells on their horses, how are they not taking this other obvious chance to ramp up their aesthetic game as well? I think they must be, and we just aren’t hearing about it explicitly very often. We ALL braided horse hair at the stable when I was young, and I refuse to believe it’s just a preteen girl thing. More LOTR horse braids!

having some Thoughts N Feelings abt elrond & elros + the historical practice of rulers taking children from the families of their tributaries or even their (nominal) allies as hostages

primarily that (1) the Politics of the Fëanorions having the heirs of Fingolfin AND Thingol AND All Three of the Three Houses as their hostages is like… soooo overlooked and underutilized in the fanworks I’ve seen

and (2) i think it would be rlly funny and also fucked-up if most elves are Totally Scandalized And Horrified by this Weird Human Behavior of “hostage-taking” if/when they see it happening in the second & third ages as human settlements & societies in M-E grow & develop, while Elrond is just like, “this is Normal, what are you Talking about”

#accurate #also… you know… Gondor does that #there’s a period in the third age where Gondor takes political hostages from Harad #literally the situation mentioned in this post #it was historical politics #and you can’t convince me Numenor didn’t also do that #and you can’t convince me they didn’t get the idea from Elros #Silmarillion #tolkien #headcanons #hostage taking

Eowyn tells Faramir it isn't necessary to write all of Rohan's songs and legends in a book lest they be forgotten. The Rohirrim do not read and write: they are oral storytellers, and they have great respect for their minstrels and their history. They will not forget anything.

She says it to reassure him and save him the trouble, but it does not seem to soothe his mind.

He smiles quickly at her before turning to the window. He looks out at the hills of Emyn Arnen as though watching for a storm on the horizon, and then Eowyn understands.

She grasps his hand.

At his touch, an image rushes through her mind: a grey, mutinous sea; and among the froth and the fury – sodden books, orphaned heirlooms, and a tapestry that will never again be seen or re-made, with both story and skill lost to the devouring waters.

The water washes over them both before slowly receding, leaving only a mist that she blinks away, and the distant glint of the Anduin to the west as it flows down to the Sea.

'Have I ever told you of Eorl the Young?' she says. Her voice is rough; she clears her throat.

'We know much about Eorl in Gondor,' Faramir says softly. 'His friendship with Cirion and his aid in our time of need was great.'

'And what about after?' she asks. 'What does Gondor know about that?'

Faramir turns to her with a wry smile. 'Very little.'

'Would that you had someone to teach you a little history.'

The mirth in Faramir's eyes mirrors her own.

'Would that I did.'

A recent painting I did as a thank you for someone.  They requested Eowyn in armor, which I’ve always wanted to paint anyway.
