Of strategies and seductions.
Maedhros : You should try to get along with our cousins; they are kind and nice to us.
Maedhros : Angaráto has been stressed these last few days, maybe you could go see him and comfort him.
Caranthir : In his chambers?
Maedhros : What?, Why would you go to his chambers?
Caranthir : To seduce him, of course, and get him to ask for my hand from Atar who will accept his proposal, then we will marry, and thereby gaining dominion over the house of Arafinwë.
Caranthir : I must admit that political marriage is a strange strategy but it worked quite well with you and Findekáno.
Maedhros: What the fuc-
Maedhros : Carnistir, Number one; no one would ask you to seduce one of our cousins.
Maedhros : Number two; I'm not married to Findekáno because of politics, I really love him.
Maedhros : And number three, do you like Angaráto?

Fëanorian caffeine habits
Fëanor: does not consume caffeinated beverages, is an ass about it. Still only needs 0-3 hours sleep a night.
Maedhros: black drip coffee but only because he can't be bothered to think about other options. Tips generously.
Maglor: tries a new fancy drink every day. Gives unsolicited review of it to whoever is around. Tips generously, expects to be adored for it.
Celegorm: drinks some weird coffee substitute like dandelion root and makes a big deal of how much better it is. Makes it himself.
Caranthir: 8 cups of very strong black tea, no milk no sugar. Brews it himself because no one else gets it right. Orders the tea special from across the Ered Luin. Complains incessantly when he has to drink subpar tea.
Curufin: fancy pourover when he's having it to stay, otherwise downs an espresso (with sugar but don't tell) in one sip at the counter and walks out. Does not interact with staff, does not tip (why should he subsidize their wages? Not his problem.)
Amrod: iced latte all year round. Bypasses the tip option (by accident?), says, "oh whoops, sorry, next time!"
Amras: glares at Amrod when he doesn't tip, then stares at the menu before ordering the same thing he always does (Americano with room for cream). Tips extra to compensate for Amrod.

Rating the Finweans
Saw someone on tiktok rate fictional characters on the likeliness to do some prompt and only revealing the prompt at the end of the video. I thought it could be fun to do the same thing here with the finweans. You can guess what I rated them on and I’ll reveal the prompt under the cut!
Feanor: 5/10
Fingolfin: 0/10 [10/10 if Feanor does it first]
Finarfin: 2/10
Maedhros: 0/10
Maglor: 6/10
Celegorm: 12/10 [c’mon]
Caranthir: 0/10
Curufin: 5/10
Ambarussa: 8/10
Fingon: 6/10
Turgon: 0/10
Aredhel: 10/10
Finrod: 9/10 
Angrod: 3/10
Aegnor: 4/10
Galadriel: 2/10 [i think she could be provoked to do it]
Prompt under the cut!
The prompt was:
How likely are they to get naked after getting drunk at a family dinner?
Feel free to tell me how you feel about this format in the comments or tags or dm me any prompt ideas!

Finarfin: 9/10
Maedhros: 2/10 (7/10 if Fingon leaves first)
Fingon: 4/10

Caranthir: 10/10
Turgon: 5/10 Could definitely be pushed to it

Aegnor: 7/10
Angrod: 6/10
Galadriel: 0/10 would never climb out a window

Democratically elected Fëanorian Return Order
Last week, I did these polls to determine (assuming the Feanorians can/will/may return to Valinor, either from Mandos or, in Maglor’s case, from wherever he is, alive or not) their order of return, considering their crimes and their trauma. I did one for which one would return first and which would return last in order to calculate their return order most accurately by adding the two together. Each percent point on the "first" poll gives a positive point and each point on the "last" poll a negative point, resulting, in theory, on a score for each of them between 100 and -100.
While there were deviations from the final result in the individual polls, the overall final result seems to be pretty much the consensus I have seen in the fandom.
Notes:
- It was left to the judgement of the voter how Maglor would return, whether from Mandos or Middle-Earth or something else. I felt that assuming he died after the first age would take away the trauma but also potential healing of his wanderings? He is a complex case, okay. He can die whenever you think he dies, and he can also not die and return by ship, so in his case, again, I just specified that he would return.
- I think a lot of people might have voted for Amrod when they meant Amrod and Amras return together. It was actually difficult to decide what to do with the twins - I did want them as separate options and didn't want to skew the data by including both separate options and one that lumped them together, so in the graph, I am including them together as well, using their average.
Here are the results of the first and last polls and the calculated final score:
Fëanor: 4 - 54 = -50
Maedhros: 6 - 20 = -14
Maglor: 11 - 6 = 5
Celegorm: 1 - 14 = -13
Caranthir: 29 - 0 = 29
Curufin: 0 - 4 = -4
Amrod: 41 - 2 = 39
Amras: 8 - 0 = 8
(Amrod and Amras: (49/2) - 1 = 23.5)
This would make the return order as follows:
1. Amrod (39)
2. Caranthir (29)
(2.5. Amrod and Amras (23.5))
3. Amras (8)
4.  Maglor (5)
5. Curufin (-4)
6. Celegorm (-13)
7. Maedhros (-14)
8. Fëanor (-50) (lol)

Maglor for the ask game?
First impression: same as maedhros, i didn't think that much about the feanorians at first ngl. i think if i had known about the fandom before i read it i would have been more attentive but i had 0 interaction with any other tolkien fans before i read it
Impression now: he's so tragic. i think he's the most tragic out of his brothers.
Favorite moment: elros and elrond adoption <3
Idea for a story: hmm........ raising elrond and elros and it reminding him of his brothers. although i bet this has been written 8 thousand times lol
Unpopular opinion: i honestly can't think of one tbh. my mutuals are intellectuals and never wrong and those are the only opinions i read
Favorite relationship: again i only care about his familial relationships. i want him and caranthir to be close sooo bad
Favorite headcanon: that hes chilling at elrond's house. i dont ACTUALLY want it to be true because i narratively prefer the open ended ending for him but this one makes me happy.

How do you actually translate Ar-Feiniel in Witcher's context?
As elves trace their lineage & anything after aep is usually their mother's &/or father's name (or both, as in case of Avallac'h), I bastardized Caranthir's second name as "of Feiniel's house." However, that's just me & has 0% linguistic credibility in either Tolkien's or Sapkowski's universe. To my knowledge though, neither the prefix Ar nor Feiniel mean anything in Elder Speech.
In Tolkien, Ar-Feiniel is the other name for Aredhel. Aredhel Ar-Feiniel, Aredhel the White Lady (of the Noldor). And considering Caranthir's creation story in TW3, I always found the notion of giving him a connection to Aredhel interesting. Aredhel's tale is one of the more uncomfortabe ones & VERY in the vein of the Witcher (If you don't know, search for Eöl & "It is not said that Aredhel was wholly unwilling."). She also mothers Maeglin. And Maeglin's, well, ...

After seeing that which feanorion is least trans poll i want to elaborate on my gender/sexuality headcannons for the finweans so lest go! Feanorions first.
Maedhros: he/they/she. ive said before that i HC Mae as having kleinfelter syndrome and i think part of the reason he's considered to be so striking in appearance is because instead of having the genderless androgyny of most elves he sort of expresses both extremes of gender at all times. He does not identify as genderfluid before his death. Very much understands that Something is up but hahaha we dont have time to unpack that. Also very much feels beholden to the identity of feanors *Eldest Son* and his identity as Heir. After rebirth they default to they for a while but eventually become comfortable enough to really enbrace their fluidity.
Maglor: ... i am so sorry but he is Extremely cishet imo. Very bohemian about it, definitely has Tried it all but came to the conclusion that no he is a man and he likes women in the end. Very much a wife guy. HOWEVER, it is important to me that almost everyone assumes he's gay or trans because he is deeply flamboyant.
Celegorm: he's cis insofar as he's not trans. I legitimately think in modern au he would have a fursona and he would consider that his gender, extremely based of him. Very bisexual but not at all romantically inclined. Also he only uses the bi label so he can clapback at people.
Caranthir: Agender, Asexual, Aromantic. Has got 0 time for any of that. Knows he's triple A but cannot be bothered to change pronouns or correct people so uses mostly he. This is regardless of his agab because i think he looks pretty similar to his brothers and so ppl usually assume he's male. He is married but its a queer platonic situation and he has a similar relationship with Haleth.
Curufin: He takes after his father, bisexual man. It makes 0 difference if he is trans or cis imo because i think he has always identified as such and was raised male pretty much as soon as he was able to verbalise his identity. Shocking lack of identity crisis in any situation, very secure in his identity to the point of being well... a bit of a dick to those who are less confident.
Amrod: Pansexual aro af. Doesn't really differentiate his attraction to others between platonic or sexual but also doesn't really care for romantic relationships. He is a cis man but he's also a theatre kid and thinks drag is very fun and absolutely an art style.
Amras: is panromantic and asexual. He is almost comically romantic. He absolutely finds The One like every 6 moths and is absolutely devastated every time it doesn't work out. Actually writes romance novels and even bodice rippers but finds real life sex to be gross messy and deeply awkward so he sticks to fiction. Is Cisn't. Like he's a man most of the time but he gets Too In Character sometimes and will occasionally just switch gender until she's finished her next book and then go back.

The grandchildren of Finwe rated on how likely they are to use the word "brother/sister" as a term of address when talking to their siblings
A completely objective ranking that is in no way an attempt to procrastinate A Task I Have To Do
Maedhros: 1/10, mostly used to assert his authority, everybody hates it
Maglor: 2.5/10, only in moments of Great Emotion
Celegorm: 9/10, given that he makes it mean either I love you or I hate you, he sure uses it a lot
Caranthir: 0/10. No.
Curufin: 1000/10, can convey the full spectrum of human emotion just saying the word brother, extremely obnoxious, make him stop
Ambarussa: 7/10, 🥺 made verbal
Fingon: 6/10, doesn't do it particularly often but means it when he does
Turgon: 9/10, very cute about it, you can tell he loves them
Aredhel: 5/10, you have to earn it (derogatory)
Argon: 4/10, picks his moments
Finrod: 10/10, he makes it sound like the sweetest of pet names, people have been known to want to be sibling-adopted just to experience it
Angrod: 3/10, bows to peer-pressure but doesn't really see the point
Aegnor: 8/10, only when he's in a good mood
Galadriel: 6/10, you have to earn it (affectionate). Would be 9.5/10 if her only brother was Finrod

Rating the Finweans (4/?)
Finally found the time to do another part for this! In Short: I’m gonna rank the Finweans on how likely they are to do some random prompt and I’ll only reveal the prompt under the cut. Have fun guessing! 
So, how likely are the Finweans to...?
Feanor: 10/10
Fingolfin: 10/10 [just as petty as his brother]
Finarfin: 0/10
Maedhros: 8/10
Maglor: 3/10
Celegorm: 0/10 [but just because he doesn’t like it]
Caranthir: 8/10
Curufin: 10/10
Ambarussa: 0/10
Fingon: 0/10
Turgon: 6/10
Aredhel: 2/10
Finrod: 0/10
Angrod: 7/10 [there’s a petty bich energy in him]
Aegnor: 1/10
Galadriel: 9/10
Prompt under this cut!
How likely are the Finweans to drive into the McDonalds drive-in with a bunch of whining kids and only order one (1) black coffee?
Feel free to send in ideas or tell me what you think about this format!
Also Part 1, Part 2 & Part 3

What Your Favourite Silm Character Says About You (part 1)
Fëanor: You're neurodivergent and relate to him because you too would commit unspeakable atrocities for your special interest.
Maedhros: You have childhood trauma that you haven't yet recovered from. Alternatively, you just really like gingers and want to fuck him. Or both.
Maglor: You still haven't moved on from your emo phase.
Celegorm: You are perhaps too horny for your own good. 99% of your bookmarked fics on AO3 are smut.
Caranthir: You have spent way too much time surrounded by dumbasses and your patience is wearing thin. Also, you're autistic.
Curufin: You somehow manage to be simultaneously the smartest and dumbest person you know.
Amras: You keep unintentionally basing your characterization of Ambarussa on the Weasley twins even though the only thing they have in common is that they're twins with red hair.
Amrod: You realize that Amrod has literally 0 personality descriptors in any of Tolkien's works, so you have to make up your own characterization for him and proceed to get frustrated when you can't find any fics where he acts "in-character".
Fingon: When you read the Silmarillion, you always have to skip chapter 24 because it fucks you up too much.
Maeglin: You were labelled as gifted as a child, but as you've gotten older, you've stopped receiving the praise that you thrived off of as a kid, and now you have crippling imposter syndrome.
Mairon: There is no universe in which you're straight.
Melkor: There is no universe in which you're cis.
Gothmog: You're way too into bara. Also probably a size queen.
Thuringwethil: You're a U-Haul lesbian.
Manwë: 90% of what you write are fix-it fics because you just want everyone to be happy.
Eönwë: You have never read a Silm modern AU and you plan on keeping it that way.
Varda: You romanticise the idea of sleeping under the stars, but whenever you actually try to do it, you only last ten minutes before the bugs send you back inside.
Nienna: ...Honey, do you need a hug? I think you need a hug.
Mandos: You're unreasonably irritated that I didn't call him Námo.
