Warnings: female reader, heavily suggestive content, making out
Tumblr media
‧₊˚ ☁️⋅♡𓂃 ࣪ ִֶָ. Maedhros
Just your typical Friday night when he pays your brother a visit and the first sight he stumbles upon is you and some…GUY being all close and flirty with one another as if nothing ever happened between you two.
Being the eldest of seven siblings, his temper and jealousy control knows no bounds because has been through it all. So when he notices the interaction, he quietly shuffles aside to meet with your brother in his room and BOILS.
Y’all really thought Mae wouldn’t become jealous, especially after all those nights of spending hours in your room while your brother peacefully sleeps like a log? He wants to launch that guy out of the house like a javelin for simply breathing in your direction.
The entire time he’s in your brother’s room, he’s creating all the excuses to step out just to return downstairs so he can stalk the interactions until he can no longer take it and corners you the moment you step aside.
“I like your friend.” His deep voice startled you as he stepped into the kitchen after your friend ran off to the washroom. Mae’s eyes never left your figure standing behind the counter and shyly looking away as though you were caught committing a crime. You were in his eyes.
“Mae,” you softly replied with a scoff and a shake of your head. “It’s not what you think.”
“Then tell me what it is,” he growled.
Your eyes snapped upwards and met the darkened look in his eyes as he fought against the restraints he created whenever he was around you in the open. His silvery orbs were shifting into darker hues of grey, swirling around as his look morphed into jealousy with a touch of hunger. His footsteps were light and calculated as he slid into the kitchen and came to stand behind you, pushing a lock of hair away from your ear.
His towering presence and body heat radiating off him made your stomach flop and butterflies erupted. Just the mere act of him pushing your hair away from your ear left you anticipating. And you were lucky. His hot breath ghosted the shell of your ear as he craned his neck to match your height while he placed his right hand on the countertop to sandwich you.
“I’ll tell you what is. You want me to bend you over this counter like I always do and make him watch and listen as you moan my name,” he breathed while his lips brushed against the tips. “How can a guy not want you? Look at you, even I want you and I don’t appreciate competing for what’s already mine. So tell him goodbye because you already have a friend: a boyfriend.”
“Since when?”
“Since now.”
Feeling like all the air had been forced out your lungs from how hard you were breathing, your fingers curled into the countertop as the images began flashing across your mind like flashbacks. Gulping and managing to reply, you looked at him from over your shoulder. “If you’re jealous, you should just say so.”
“I’m not jealous, princess. I’m just claiming what belongs to me.”
Tumblr media
‧₊˚ ☁️⋅♡𓂃 ࣪ ࣪ ִֶָ. Celegorm
All hell is going to break loose the moment he and your brother walk through the door and witness the sight of you and some random…GUY is all cute and playful. Standing close to each, bumping shoulders and laughing at his jokes.
It’s worse when your brother doesn’t even know who this GUY is, so this gives him the cue to step up and become the big bad wolf to cryptically remind you that he doesn’t tolerate it and you’re in trouble.
The first thing Celegorm could do is make himself known by standing as menacingly as possible in the area and STARE until you both become uncomfortable. Either you speak out on his actions or the boy, and if he does, Tyelko loves the direction the confrontation is heading.
You should count your blessings that your brother is present because he wants to know just as much as Celegorm does, and he’s also preventing Celegorm from flipping your house inside out.
His gaze was locked on you the entire time, wanting you to catch the hints that you weren’t going to be let off the hook for this stunt. “So who’s your lil friend over here?”
Rolling your eyes exasperatedly at the silver-haired oaf, you turned your head to cast an apologetic glance at your friend before introducing him. “This here is Nestaron, and he’s in the same year as me in uni. We have most of our classes together.”
Without missing a beat, Tyelko’s brows furrowed as he threw a questionable look at your friend before returning his focus to you. “Together? What do you mean by that kitten?”
With the simple use of your pet name, the poor boy inwardly cringed and felt like he was overstepping boundaries he didn’t know were up. His eyes were everywhere but you and Tyelko as he fiddled with his thumbs on the stool while you and your brother’s bestie were having a murderous stare-down. You couldn’t understand why he was being so negative about your friend when he didn’t even know the boy.
“Um…” Your head swivelled at the sound of your friend’s voice and watched as he hopped off his stool and grabbed his bag pack. “I’m gonna head out now. Sorry if I ruined anything between you two, I didn’t know you were together.”
“We’re not together.”
“Yes, we are!”
Nestaron’s eyes darted between you and Tyelko, while Tyelko and your gaze were locked on one another. His face wore a triumphant smirk while yours held disbelief at his jealous behaviour. In the middle of your stare-down, Nestaron ushered himself out of the kitchen without saying another word and departed from the house.
“What the hell is wrong with you?!”
“What the hell is wrong with you?! I come over and some random guy is being all flirty with you. Don’t even tell me that he wasn’t flirting because I know what flirting looks like. I do it with you all the time!” he whisper-yelled, finally entering the kitchen to corner you between him and the fridge. His forest eyes held anger and sadness in them the longer he held your gaze.
Fighting the urge to bite your tongue, you narrowed your eyes at him and craned your neck upwards to challenge him. “Why do you care so much?!”
“Because I don’t sleep around. If I do, it’s only one person, you. There’s meaning in that, but you haven’t recognised it yet,” he uttered softly whilst lifting a finger to caress your cheek. It wasn’t long before his gaze darkened as his words lingered in the air and his gaze fell to your lips. “So if I were you, I’d continue making your little meal while thinking about it because you’re gonna have to apologise to me later…night.”

‧₊˚ ☁️⋅♡𓂃 ࣪ ࣪ ִֶָ. Fingon
No, jealousy is not his favourite colour because green doesn’t go well with his appearance. He refuses to reach that level where his temper tips into becoming the green monster, so all he does is painfully observe with a fake smile and silently SIMMERS.
What he doesn’t know is that he is genuinely jealous the longer he stares at you and your new buddy outside, laughing and chatting away too close for his personal taste—he does notice the way your new buddy stares at you when you weren’t looking, and he isn’t happy about it.
His face contorts and his breathing quickens, and his focus isn’t even on your brother explaining some new game he’s been wanting. The entire time he’s calculating what and how to approach you without hinting that he wasn’t pleased with the interaction.
He didn’t want to appear like some jealous-possessive type of lover—he wasn’t sure if you considered him that—but Fingon knew that something had to be done to reaffirm his security when it came to your relationship.
Pleased to have found a moment to steal away from your brother, he manages to accidentally bump into you the moment you re-entered the house from the backdoor, leaving your buddy in the backyard. Noticing Fingon muttering to himself, you paused from entering the guest toilet and walked over to inquire.
“Hey,” you sang and tapped his shoulder. “You okay? Noticed you’re looking sad?”
Feeling your hand on his shoulder, he melted under your touch and swivelled around to face you with a nonchalant expression while he was dying on the inside. Eyes shortly roaming your figure, he took an up-close image of your attire and ground his teeth. “Yeah, I’m fine. Why wouldn’t I be?”
His left eye twitched.
Stifling a burst of laughter behind your hand, you tilted your head and teased—wasn’t a smart move on your end. “You haven’t spoken a word to me since you came over and I missed you. This isn’t because I brought my friend over?”
Fingon stifled his laughter—attempted to which came out like a scoff followed by a dark chuckle. He poked the inside of his cheek with his tongue before slowly biting his lower lip. “Now where’s the humour in that? What’s so funny about missing me when you invited your little friend out there to keep you company? You shouldn’t keep him waiting too long; he’s probably getting lonely.”
His inability to hide his jealousy while denying it was adorable the longer he pouted and hunched over the counter contemplating. It urged you to step closer and wrap your arms around his waist, moulding your body against his. “You’re jelly Finno. I told you, he’s just a friend. Only a friend.”
But Fingon knew otherwise, for in your friend’s mind, he considered you more than what you did. And much to his annoyance, Fingon was beginning to lose his patience from the way you were pressing against him, driving him insane with your sweet fragrance. Breaking the restraints, his hands found themselves cupping your neck and tilting your head upwards to meet his lips brushing against yours. He smirked at your sharp intake of breath.
“Jealous,” he purred. “If he’s just your friend, then you wouldn’t mind if I staked my claim right here and now?”
“We can’t do that right now Fingon.” You were trembling in his hold the more his lips brushed against yours.
“Oh no sweetheart, that’s for tonight when I have all the time in the world. For now, a little kiss,” he breathed raspy as his lips trailed past your lips, along your jaw and to the junction of your neck and shoulder. “Right here, where you can show it off for me, hm.”
Indeed his definition of a little kiss was a few scattered hickeys on either side of your neck for your friend to receive the message.
Tumblr media
‧₊˚ ☁️⋅♡𓂃 ࣪ ࣪ ִֶָ. Angrod
He wants nothing more than to toss your friend out the front door by his collar like a javelin without hesitation. His anger is seething the longer he stands beside your brother being introduced like he’s a side character all of a sudden.
It’s worse when your brother shows clear signs of knowing about your friendship with your guy friend for some time. Angrod’s eyes are twitching, and he’s irritated that you would even consider another boy to be your friend when he existed.
Were his frequent visitations not enough to get it into your head that you were together? The entire time he’s in the house, his eyes are locked on your little friend, gaging his every move to ensure they don’t cross a line.
And the only line your friend managed to cross was the way his eyes would lock onto your figure as you moved around the house. Was the need for looking like some love-sick puppy necessary?
“I don’t like the way you’re looking at her?” Angrod grumbled as he sat on the stool on the other side of the island while his opponent sad on the opposite side returning a challenging smirk. “It’s quite disrespectful since she considers you a friend, don’t you think?”
“Says who, you? Jealous of a little competition? Afraid that I’ll win her heart with my charm and good looks?” your friend sneered and folded his arms to appear larger. He was lucky that you weren’t present in the kitchen as he and Angrod had their exchange.
“Someone who looks and is built like the Shoebill stork shouldn’t be boasting so loudly. I would humble myself if I were you,” countered Angrod with a triumphant smug while darting his eyes at the staircase to look out for your return. He’d hate to be caught arguing for your attention like some jealous child—he hated engaging in the act currently as they argued.
Feeling insulted, your friend cleared his throat and released a sarcastic laugh. He wanted to return an insult concerning Angrod’s looks, but the blonde was indeed too handsome to bring down. Instead, he changed the topic of insult to another. “Going for my looks is a bit low, don’t you think? At least I’m not the one parading around as Y/N’s fake boyfriend; hate to say it, but that’s all you’ll ever be.”
“Funny that as Y/N’s fake boyfriend, I get to be in her room every night and anytime I visit instead of being limited to the kitchen…” Hitting the roof of his mouth with his tongue, he threw a wink at his stunned opponent whose jaw visibly clenched at hearing the disadvantage he faced. There was no way for him to overcome this defeat; indeed he had lost the game. “As her fake boyfriend, I get to know her inside-out, and more. What do you know?”
“I–…I…”
“Nothing. So consider this a respectful warning. The next time she calls you over, don’t. Your intentions don’t match hers and mine.”
Before your friend could respond, your footsteps echoed in the distance as your feet came thumping down the staircase and bounding into the kitchen. The first person you walked past and greeted was Angrod with a blink and smile before turning to sharply raise your brows at your friend and heading into the fridge, unaware of the tense exchange they both had.
Tumblr media
‧₊˚ ☁️⋅♡𓂃 ࣪ ࣪ ִֶָ. Egalmoth
The fact that you thought for a second that after all the ramping around the sheets you and Egalmoth did and STILL thought it wise to bring a male friend over was you setting yourself up for some punishment.
Egalmoth wasn’t going to let this go…until he assessed the situation and decided the outcome was justifiably enough to his liking. This included the entire build-up process of eyeing your friend down and turning his visit into 21 questions.
If you were going to bring someone over, at least pick someone worth being in your presence to make the repercussions lessen. Instead, you picked someone who couldn’t hold a candle to your flame and then dared to state to Egalmoth’s face that he was interested in you.
Egalmoth was ready to get this over with and done. He wanted this BOY out of your house and never to set foot inside here again while ensuring that this incident never happened again…with anyone else.
“El, what are doing?” you barked out in a muffled voice as his hand clamped over your mouth. His face was inches apart from yours as he managed to fit his body into the cramped spacing of your guest toilet, not too far from the living room. Despite the dim light, you were able to notice the wicked gleam in his eyes as he towered over you.
“Shush, princess. Have no fear; I’m only doing what I’m supposed to: ensuring what belongs to me carries a signature.” He grinned wickedly as his hand slid off your mouth to wrap around the front of your throat and applied a small amount of pressure to the sides to prompt your eyes to roll into your head. A small whimper escaped, causing him to bite his lip. “Do you think your friend would mind I helped his eyes to stop roaming?”
The only response was a soft whine as he applied more pressure while nibbling on your lower lip. It didn’t take him long to turn his nibbles into slow kisses, leaving you breathless. He left no room for your body to pull away as he engaged in the sinful act in the privacy of your guest toilet. All your moans were gobbled up by him—a courtesy he was kind to pay—however he didn’t spare his mouth travelling lower to place hickeys down your neck, biting and sucking your skin as though it were nectar.
“E–…El, we’ll get caught…”
“Even better.”
Much to your fear and his satisfaction, in the middle of his hands travelling further to cup your ass while his mouth was busy on your clavicle, a knock on the door and your name went off. “Y/N, is everything alright? You’ve been in there for a while now.”
Suddenly, you heard Egalmoth’s voice rippling by your ear. “Go on…answer him or I will.”
The fear that resonated from deep within made you blurt out a rapid, shaky reply. “Y-Yeah, I’m f-fine. A little stomach, ah…problems.”
He hesitated to reply on the other end, finding your responses suspicious, however, he nodded his head and returned to the living room to wait for you.
“That wasn’t so hard was it, love? Now let’s see how many marks I can leave on you in five minutes.”
Tumblr media
‧₊˚ ☁️⋅♡𓂃 ࣪ ࣪ ִֶָ. Beleg
He’s confused because as much as he’s sleeping around with you; you are welcome to have friends of the opposite sex. However, it’s the proximity of the interactions that’s been bothering him since he was introduced.
Even a glance he made in your direction, there was a little guy friend who was, too close and with his arm wrapped around your waist. Beleg needed to check his eyes and perform a double take for that one. Your friend had Beleg plotting if removing someone’s hand was acceptable in instances like this because he needed it to be.
The rest of the night Beleg had vanished out of sight, cooling himself off with a walk in the dew because, for the first time, he was unsure about his self-control. He really liked you but didn’t want to ruin anything by confronting your friend.
It’s only when he returned during the early hours of the morning, that he realised that his cooling off was pointless since your friend was still present in the house.
“Why are you still here?” Beleg’s voice rang out clearly with a hint of displeasure as he eyed your friend up and down, scrutinising him harshly. “The celebration’s over, you should be at home.”
“Ah, about that. Y/N asked me to spend the night.”
Beleg believed that murder was the appropriate answer to this issue and not removing a limb. His eye twitched at the audacious remark which prompted a series of rises and falls of the corners of his lips. He had enough time to commit the crime and clean up the scene before anyone woke up. That seemed like the most suitable plan.
“Y/N asked you to spend the night? Doesn’t sound like the Y/N I know,” Beleg replied and took a few steps into the living room to remove his jacket. From the new angle, his forest eyes were shining brightly with thirst and eagerness. “Sounds to me like you invited yourself here when you should be at home. Would you like me to take you home?”
“Relax man,” your friend surrendered, laughing with his hands raised. “I don’t mean any harm.”
“Of course you don’t. You’re entirely harmless because your arms around her waist all night weren’t enough for me to know your intentions.” Walking into the kitchen to grab a can of Sprite from the top shelf, he popped the lid off and took a deep swig while boring holes into his challenger’s caught expression. If it was one thing you couldn’t Beleg with, it was knowing when someone was interested in another person: he knew the body language all too well.
Crossing his arms and legs as he leaned against the counter, your friend whispered ‘touché’ before he attempted to stand his ground once more. “If it bothers you this much, then why haven’t you made any move on her yet instead of leaving her available for people like me to have a chance?”
The urge to throw up at the assumption was vividly expressed on Beleg’s visage the longer he stared. With the can of Sprite already discarded in the bin, Beleg grew tired of maintaining the unnecessary weight of the conversation and chose to silently walk out of the kitchen with a small ‘good night’, making a turn for the staircase.
“Where are you going?”
“To sleep, what else.”
“I know, but shouldn’t you be sleeping down here since they don’t have any rooms to offer?”
Beleg chuckled, shaking his head with a victorious triumphant grin. “That only applies to you. I get invited to sleep in Y/N’s room whenever I’m here by Y/N. Good night.”

egalmoth, my moans were so loud last night, do you think anyone heard me? (continues kissing his neck)
Tumblr media
“How should I know when I was the cause of them just the way I liked?” he grinned. Then, gripping your waist and flipping you onto your back, he slithered his body over yours like a predator caging his prey in. “Why don’t I get you to make some more and we’ll see if it’s loud?”

Kissing the Elves
Gondolin
Tumblr media
Request 1:  Can I request Kissing - The Lords of Gondolin?
Request 2:  Kissing the Lords of Gondolin!
A/N: Since I have done a couple of these for the elves on different ones I added their previous headcanons for this. The rest are new though. <3 Shout out to @saviorsong​ for helping me do Galdor’s though I reworked it to fit with the rest of the post. I added her rendition at the bottom.
* * * 
Turgon
Turgon’s kisses are always done in the privacy of his chambers, where here he can kiss you without any prying eyes. Sometimes they are incredibly slow and lingering, forehead almost pressing against yours as he wraps an arm around your waist to keep flush against him. Sometimes they are deep and fiery full of pent up passion that he has been dying to shower you in, no less gentle with you keeping you as close as he can, needy for such intimacy.
Aredhel
Aredhel always takes the time to meld her lips with yours with some passion, her hands either resting around your neck or she’s gripping the collar of top to keep you close. In no way does she want to part from you the moment your lips are pressed together. So she is always giving you several shared kisses- much to the embarrassment of Turgon. Aredhel certainly isn’t afraid of a little PDA and she is happy to share kisses with you both in public and in private. This means the intensity of her kisses are rather unrestrained. 
Maeglin
Maeglin’s kisses are always private and always unrestrained and long. He can never get enough of the way your lips feel against his and often he loves just laying in bed making out with you. Lips always starting out timid and mindful before pressing them firmly against yours. Taking his time to savor the way you feel against him, humming softly as he slowly slips his tongue into your mouth. A hand holding yours keeping it pulled to his chest, with the other arm resting beneath your head.
Glorfindel
Kissing Glorfindel is always such a sweet and tender experience, even despite his more determined younger attitude. His lips are always incredibly warm and soft against yours and they taste faintly of vanilla. Gently he always cradles your face in his hands, while his thumbs gently stroke your cheeks taking his time to taste and savor the way you feel against him.
Ecthelion
Kissing Ecthelion is always going to be a private affair, expect if you do receive any in public eye that they are going to be quick pecks to your lips and maybe a few hand kisses. But should you both be in an empty courtyard or workshop or alleyway, Ecthelion is happy to dote on you with controlled and confident kisses. Never letting himself get carried away, even in your most private chambers Ecthelion takes the lead keeping your head tilted back while he melds his lips to yours. 
Rog
For all his rough housing and horse play when Rog kisses you he is utterly delicate and loves to keep you close. Rog is all for PDA but he still likes to keep things pretty toned down in public, but unlike Ecthelion, Rog is more than willing to linger in a public kiss. Bringing his hand up to gently caress your cheek beneath his large hand, 
Egalmoth
Egalmoth’s kisses are always suavely done, with great confidence and certainty. There is also most certainly a hint of seduction in his kisses. Bringing a hand up to tilt your head back before he leans in to slowly kiss you, with every single degree of passion behind his lips melding with yours. He’s certainly unafraid to slip his tongue in to taste you, with a hand lightly caressing down your jaw and neck.
Galdor
For all of Galdor’s go with the flow nature, you will find that he is surprisingly teasing when it comes to kissing you. He enjoys the feel of you shuddering beneath the tips of his fingers as he traces over sensitive places like the underside of your arms or down your neck. His lips caressing over yours teasingly before he finally presses them to yours. Even still once his lips press to yours, it is slow and sensual bringing you to yearn for more.
Penlod
Penlod for all his talkative and extroverted behavior, when it comes to kissing he is surprisingly timid and easily flustered by the ordeal. He is unafraid to give you small pecks here or there, especially when no one is looking- propriety and all that. But for something longer it’s something you’ll have to coax out of him. At first he’s very timid, blushing bright red the moment your lips meld together clearly not looking for a peck. Penlod is very restrained and controlled as he continues to kiss you back timidly, finally as you continue and coax him into relaxing do his kisses grow more firm
Duilin
Duilin cares about appearances and you’ll find that the Lord isn’t into a lot of PDA, and prefers that any and most affections are done in private. You’ll find that Duilin will certainly play games with you all day leading up to his kisses, with once overs and looks of appreciation as he passes you by. Or with light and almost teasing like caresses to spare when he can get close to you. Duilin will only then relinquish to kiss you once he has wound you up when you are finally in private, not sparing you your breath as he kisses you passionately. 
Bonus from @saviorsong​:
Galdor’s as likely to rake the tips of his fingers on the underside of your arm to distract you as he is about making the process slow and delirious. His lips gently stroking yours while his thumb holds your chin imobile. Every touch teasing and sensual, until you can’t possibly wait his other hand on the small of your back. Before the agonizingly slow meld of your lips burns it’s way to your core. - Saviorsong is horny…and was also here

❝  i know this might sound weird but,  do you wanna stay over?  i guess ‘sleepover’ sounds kind of childish but.  i think it’d be nice.  ❞ (Eggles and Duilin on the Ice?)
Egalmoth was amongst several who could say they’d watched their loved ones die one by one on the ice. With each passing day he wondered if this was really all worth it. He wondered if any of them would even survive this, and cursed Fëanor’s name under his breath. The half-Vanya was glad that Duilin broke him out of his trance, as short lived as it was. Egalmoth felt particularly isolated as of late and was more than welcome to a friend’s comfort.
“I think so too,” he nodded, the hint of a smile on his face. Though he put his traveling pack on moments ago, he slipped it right back off as he settled back in next to Duilin. The space in their makeshift shelter was limited, but Egalmoth didn’t mind. “It’s warmer staying together, anyways.”

On the fashion of the Gondolindrim
I have realised that I did quite a research regarding sensible fashion design for the 1st age elves and that I could share what I had learned.
The Gondolindrim live in a secluded valley in abundance. The city’s beauty and glory is close to that of Tirion. They have been living in relative safety for about four hundred years which is more than average American city. They are scholars and artists with multiple cultural influences and a loooot of time on their hands.
Materials
The Gondolindrim would probably use a lot of silk and metal fibres. Oh wait - is someone objecting that the silk moths are proliferating mostly in warmer climates? Totally right. But there are plenty other moths that produce their own kinds of silk and are adapted for colder climates too, the properties of these silks are just not as convenient for weaving as the silk moth’s cocoons. Maybe an obstacle for a human but certainly not for an elf. They probably love layered gowns with subtle embroidery creating 3D impressions and ethereal elegance, or prefer exquisite brocades with ornaments (probably ocassionaly using the house emblems). As for winter fabrics, Silk velvet would be the choice. I can imagine them trying to avoid using too much fur and furs mostly serve as decorative trims.
Tumblr media
Egalmoth wearing his complicated attire including layered cloak with goldwork stars and diamonds . His hair is braided, although most of it is loose - probably Glorfindel influenced.
Colouring and patterns
This is the difficult part as each elf has probably their own taste. The lords usually sport their own colours but it doesn’t have to be a rule - they have multiple outfits and since they have their personal lives as well, I highly doubt they strictly stick to their emblem colour. As for the patterns, they don’t need to worry about the fabric waste so their clothes are probably well fitted and flattering. Lower classes clothes are beautiful as well but have probably much looser fit.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Left: Penlod sporting a light grey silk shirt. Right: Ecthelion’s costume design.
Influences and fashion icons
Now we have celebrities and big name fashion brands to set the trends. However, in the past, the nobility was responsible for that. I assume there were three major trend setters influencing the other lords and citizens: Turgon (the king), Egalmoth (aka the rich one) and Glorfindel (the pretty one). Turgon’s gowns (or…Turgowns? I will see myself out) are usually white with red silk lining and subtle but intricate embroidery, combined with some jewellery. As for the length of the robes it probably varies by the occasion. His style is followed mostly by Penlod, who is very fond of white as well. Egalmoth has a thing for jewels and rainbow colours, which makes his clothing extravagant and lavish. He is probably very fond of embroidery and even his outfits for archery trainings are masterfully crafted. His trademark, however, is the goldwork combined with gemstones and beads (a type of embroidery using metallic threads). His ceremonial attires are very complicated, however many elves struggle to follow his example mostly because of the costs. There are several elves that probably managed to customise his style for their needs - for example, Ecthelion is said to be very fond of diamonds. Since he is the lord of the Fountain and probably very fond of water he usually wears subtle blues adorned with sparkly diamonds droplets imitating the rain droplets. Then we have Glorfindel. If you look at eg. Fingon, we know he wears his hair in braids adorned with gold. I can imagine the Noldor in Valinor were fond of difficult hairstyles which probably persists in Hithlum. Glorfindel decided to ditch this trend once for all and leaves his hair loose for everyone to admire. His garment choices are significantly simpler than Egalmoth’s, he is avoiding long robes and his priority is movement and comfort. His favourite fabrics include linen and subtle brocade, sometimes embroidered. His choices are probably the most popular in the city as they usually reflect the nature (which must make the Sindarin citizens very happy). As for the female trend setters, we have Aredhel (but she has taste very similar to Turgon, the only difference would be probably the pattern) and Idril, who probably prefers loosely fitted garments with subtle jewellery. She is known for her negative attitude toward shoes which might be related to her Vanyarin legacy (I imagine Vanyar wearing very simple clothes unlike the crafty Noldor- their priorities don’t concern material things as much).
Tumblr media
Salgant’s last outfit is mostly inspired by the King’s style. The short tunic suggests that he is wearing an informal outfit. The cape is made of silver velvet.
Ouch. This was long.
Special thanks to my partner who helped a lot with all the research. It means a lot for me. All the art belongs to me. I apologise in case there are some grammar errors, I’m not a native speaker.
Feel free to ask me anything. I will try my best to answer your questions as fast as possible.
Are you interested in more costume designs or references? ❤️ I’m about to open commissions and I can include this cathegory as well.

Dating Rog (Headcannons)

Rog is a very jovial and carefree elf
He is very affectionate and loves to cuddle, hug, kiss, etc
If you’re okay with it, he loves to show you off to people, in a “look how lucky I am to have my partner, they’re perfect!”
If you’re not okay with it, it’s fine, he’ll just pamper you
He likes to pick you up and just move you around
“Haha, meleth, don’t be angry! You were trying to reach that shelf and weren’t capable of reaching it! I’m only helping you!”
Of course, if you seriously tell him to stop, he’ll respect your wishes
He is very patient and helpful with everything you come to him for help
If you feel sad because people talk bad about you, he’ll listen to you and reassure you, before taking care of the people who made you sad
If you’re anxious about something, he’ll do his best to take your mind off things and help you relax
If you’re angry about something, he’ll listen to you and help you exteriorize that anger
Rog loves to just be around you
He’s perfectly okay to talk to you, ramble on and on about a project if you’re not in the mood to talk
He’s also perfectly fine listening to you talk if you need to vent or just want to ramble about something you’re passionate about
Rog loves to pull pranks on his fellow Lords and friends
If you want to help him, he’s more than happy to execute his plan with you
Running away from an angry Egalmoth, an amused Glorfindel and an exasperated Turgon is always fun
If you’re okay with it, Rog will throw you over his shoulder and run away with you clinging to his shoulders to keep your balance
If you’re someone with a lot of imagination, he’s overjoyed to listen to your ideas and bring them to life
He’ll forge your dream jewelry or weapons and he’ll love every moment of it
“Here you go, darling! I really enjoyed making this piece!”
He’ll ramble on about every aspect of the project, love and joy in his eyes

Thank you!!! I’d love to read it!!! I’d you don’t mind sharing of course😊
All right! For some background, this scene takes place on Midsummer's Day, directly after the wedding of Aragorn and Arwen. Because Éowyn doesn't have a relationship with Faramir in this AU (RIP) and therefore doesn't rapidly recover from her despair, I've chosen to have her stay in Minas Tirith after Éomer leaves for Rohan in early May so that the healers can keep an eye on her, since she's not fully recovered yet. Here you go!
He leaned his forearms against the battlement and stared across the many leagues of the Pelennor. His voice was distant as he began: “It was a Midsummer such as this, warm with the flush of summer’s flourishing, and we had begun to celebrate Tarnin Austa, the Gates of Summer. We began at midnight with a ceremony that bade us remain silent until daybreak arrived, when every voice in the city would burst into the ancient songs of our people. “But on that day, as we looked to the mountains in the east in celebratory expectation, we were greeted not by the sun’s rays, but by flames spilling from the northern mountains. The very slopes seemed ablaze with the flames of the enemy.” As he spoke, the last light of the sun fell behind the peaks of a southern spur of the White Mountains in a red blaze, and the shadows around them lengthened. “The sun did not rise that day,” he continued. “Ere long, the smoke and fumes of the enemy choked the city’s fair walls, and the servants of the enemy fell upon the city: orcs, wolves, balrogs, and dragons.
“We knew it not then, but we had been betrayed. Maeglin, sister-son of the king, had been captured by the enemy and promised a boon for delivering the city to the enemy. Maeglin had long coveted Idril Celebrindal, daughter of the king and wife of Tuor, Lord of the House of the Wing; and Morgoth, the Great Enemy, promised to make Maeglin king of Gondolin and husband of Idril, if he would reveal to Morgoth how to enter the hidden city." Éowyn stilled. This tale felt uncomfortably familiar, though it had happened centuries ago and to a people unknown to her. A chill ran through her, despite the warmth of the evening. She imagined a city grander and fairer even than the one she now stood in, its beauty tainted by lurking steps and lingering glances that she could feel upon her skin like grasping hands. She curled her fingers into the stone of the battlement and turned her mind to Glorfindel’s voice, banishing her dark thoughts. “When the flames fell upon us, we were ill-prepared, isolated and without allies to call upon. Only Idril, daughter of the king, had had the foresight to devise a method of escape from the city: a hidden passage deep beneath its foundation.  "But even such preparation failed to staunch the carnage that the forces of the enemy wreaked upon the city. The king and his house were slain when dragons beset the Tower of the King and crushed the king and his house beneath the tower, and many of the lords of the houses fell in defense of the city.” He fell silent for a moment. “Their deeds were deeds of great valor, but I remember them only as beloved friends, not the warriors of songs and tales that they are now remembered as upon these shores.” “Did all of your friends perish that day?” Grief was a familiar companion to the House of Eorl, but Éowyn could scarcely imagine losing everyone she loved all at once, in a single strike. Her hand nearly crept to his, but she caught herself. “No, but of the Twelve Houses of Gondolin, only I, Egalmoth, and Galdor remained of the lords. I guarded the rear of the exiles as they fled the city through the hidden passage, but we were pursued by a balrog. I fought it upon the cliffs, but even as I slew the beast, it fell over the cliff and caught me with it, and I fell upon the rocks far below.” “And you yet lived?” Éowyn asked in amazement, looking upon him with renewed wonder. “Surely your wounds must have been great indeed!” “No, my lady. I died that day.” Éowyn peered up at him in wonder and disbelief. His words were beyond comprehension. “Then how can you stand here now, hale and whole? I have heard of the immortality of Elves, but this is surely—” Something unreadable—Éowyn thought it was amusement, but surely not—flickered across his face. “I died; it is true, and my body lies still entombed upon the rocks where it fell, though the waters of the Sea now cover the cairn. But my spirit fled to the Halls of Waiting, as do all of the spirits of the Eldar upon death. And there I waited and healed, until I was re-embodied and returned to the Blessed Realm in the West, where I dwelt for many years.” “How come you here—to Middle-earth?” she asked in astonishment. “I was sent back, charged to aid Elves and Men in their efforts against Sauron.”

Had a thought while rewatching some America's Next Top Model meme vids.
If Middle Earth or Valinor were to have a fashion show, who would arrange it? Who would the judges be? Who are the contestants?
Curufin? Ecthelion? Egalmoth? Mairon/Annatar? Finrod? Fingon? Feanor? Thranduil?
Like imagine the drama between them and the shading. 😂😂
This is definitely Mairon/Annatar giving advice:
Tumblr media
Feanor when the contestants find their pictures didn't come out good:
Tumblr media
Curufin throwing a fit during evaluation:
Tumblr media
Ecthelion silently judging and probably disgusted:
Tumblr media
Fingon when someone tells him that golden ribbons in their hair are overrated:
Tumblr media
Egalmoth when someone dresses worst than him but wins:
Tumblr media
Finrod teaching them how to do the "bad bitch" walk:
Tumblr media
Thranduil when someone says they could model better than him:
Tumblr media
BONUS:
They thought hiring Celegorm for an advertisement would be a great idea because he's cheap:
Tumblr media
Glorfindel makes an appearance to compete and everyone was shook:
Tumblr media
I want this to be a show, cause I'd binge watch all the seasons.

Mun's headcanons on the Lords of Gondolin and their relationships.
Turgon: Single but at least half in love with all the Lords.
Glorfindel: Also single, but suspected to have a thing with Turgon or Ecthelion.
Ecthelion: Single but suspected to have a thing with Glorfindel or (surprisingly) Galdor.
Galdor: Deeply committed to Turgon and oblivious to anyone else who might be interested in him.
Penlod: In a committed relationship with his library but also spends hours a day pining after someone (bets are on Egalmoth or Elemmakil).
Rog: In a relationship, no one really knows with who but it is suspected that the person is someone in his house.
Tuor: Happily married to Idril, oblivious to any other interests in him.
Salgant: Interested in Maeglin but frequently implies he is in a committed relationship with his harp and music room.
Maeglin: Rumored to be in love with Idril, actual interests in others not known but reasonably sure that he is interested in someone belonging to the House of the King.
Duilin: Rumored to have an on again and off again relationship with a couple of others, candidates are Galdor, Egalmoth, and Glorfindel, but no one is sure if there is truth to the rumors they just think it's fun to imagine.
Egalmoth: Rumored to be with at least three other lords depending on the season and how close he stood near them at the most recent ball/party/other event.
Elemmakil: Rumored to be pining after a Noldo lady left across the sea. Actually sleeping with people who express an interest but tries for a 'no attachments' rule thinking that he is in the most dangerous position.
Sarnaro (My OC Healer of Gondolin): Not with anyone but knows who is actually with whom and is very amused by the rumors, sometimes feeding them and getting people away from the truth.

Dating Egalmoth Would Include...
Tumblr media
A/N: For one of my all-time favourite elves :)
Tumblr media
➳❥ Now, he is a very proud person. He is very proud of you and enjoys showing you off to everyone. He loves bringing up your accomplishments whenever the conversation calls for it because he wants everyone to know how talented his lover is.
➳❥ He spoils you all the time. There is not a day that goes by when you’re not receiving a new gift arriving at your doorstep. He baths you in jewellery, so you’d look like a walking disco ball alongside him at any event.
➳❥ He’s a tall elf, so you are short in comparison to him which means that he enjoys resting his arms or placing his chin on your head just to annoy you most of the time. He sticks to doing this in public because he has no shame, none whatsoever.
➳❥ Egalmoth also enjoys when you throw your little tantrum when he carries out these actions because you would usually stomp your feet and pout or whine. This prompts him to start pinching your cheeks excessively.
➳❥ He uses his height as a perfect excuse to pick you up and carry you around, ensuring that your feet never touch the ground. In truth, he just loves holding you close and carrying you around because it makes him feel strong.
➳❥ There are times during the day when you two are having meals, he just stops and stares off at you in amazement because he’s proud to be with you. The first few times he did this, you thought he was broken and shook the life out of him, literally, to bring him back to his senses. ‘His head is empty’ – Ecthelion.
➳❥ Cuddling is a must and if you don’t, he’d just walk right over to whatever it is that you’re doing and pull you away from it, carry you to the sofa or bedroom and snuggle you to death. It’s his way of payback.
➳❥ He loves you to the moon and back and makes it his absolute job to remind you every single day. There isn’t a minute of the day where the words I love you or I adore you are said or whispered to in your ears. It’s always followed by kisses. It could be in public, he doesn’t care, and everyone needs to see how much he cherishes you.
➳❥ You’re always hanging around him, Ecthelion and Glorfindel and the latter ensures that you’re included in all their fun and games while the quiet elf who’s holding the team together, ensures that you don’t get dragged into anything dangerous by the other two—yes that includes your beloved.
➳❥ When it comes to protectiveness, he is known for being an archer, so he’d probably camped on your roof all night ensuring that no harm comes to you, none whatsoever. But seriously though, fun and jokes aside, he is serious about putting himself between you and danger even if it costs him his life.
➳❥ He drags you along to lots of fun festivities with the other lords, wanting you to interact with them as much as possible. So be prepared to attend endless dinner parties, lunches or random visitations.
⊰ He has quite the sense of humour so you’re never left in a dull moment with him. It’s always laughter and giggles whenever he’s around. His ability to turn your frown upside down and remove the grey clouds never fails to surprise you.

Egalmoth, since you’re so good at archery, will you shoot this apple off my head? (tosses the red fruit into the air and catches it in my palm) Rog says you can’t, but I have faith in you. I trust you my love.
Tumblr media
Staring at you with skepticism, he gauged the apple on your head, then his bow before canting it at a 45° angle and aiming at your head. “Sometimes your faith in me can be too much melda,” he muttered under his breath. “I would prefer to shoot the apple of Rog's head instead of yours…see how much he doubts me.”

Rog’s hand ran along the smooth surface of the pure white rocks. Hardy stones these. Perfect for building the fortress that Turgon seemed to be considering. Smiling with a hint of whimsy in his eyes he felt warmth bubble up inside him as his mind brought forth some of the breathtaking buildings of Valinor. Buildings he himself had helped to place stone by precious stone in just the right patterns. Glancing at his fingers as they traced the lines of water eroded in small paths along the rock face, he imagined the warmth radiating forth as freshly carved stonework.
“Rog! Walk your dream paths later! We are to scout further ahead; come!”
Blinking tired eyes he tore his gaze from the white stone to that of the golden haired loudmouth crowing at him from across the grassy path. “I was not walking dream paths not that I owe you any definition of my behavior.” Looking back to the beautiful pieces of stone he took out a small chisel and hammer. Knocking off a small chunk of the stone he picked it up and deposited it in a small leather pouch. Turgon did want to know what local stonework he could work with. Turning he returned to the path his fellow scouts were traversing. “You are a nuisance, you know that.” he groused.
Glorfindel laughed clearly unbothered by the other elf’s annoyance. “I simply do not wish for you to fall into a melancholy while staring at the wall of stones that currently surround us! Tis a civic duty I perform.” With an over exaggerated flourish Glorfindel bowed to Rog.
Rog rolled his eyes shoving Glorfindel in the shoulder as he passed him. “Your over the top performances prove your youth, elfling.”
Egalmoth sighed, rubbing his forehead as Glorfindel sputtered indignantly at the comment. “Will both of you please cease these childish squabbles. We are tasked to get these mountains scouted and return within the next few days. We are already behind in our schedule thanks to the river incident.”
Rog laughed a deep chested laugh that shook his shoulders. “I would not deem that an incident so much as a side track of interesting gains.”
Egalmoth turned to him. “Gains? We lost a third of our supplies!”
Glorfindel walked up to the three tying his hair back in a tight bun as the wind would not seem to leave it be. “We did, yes. But we gained valuable insight into the local wildlife.”
Egalmoth glared. “I do not think Lord Turgon would need to know that beavers make off with the goods of foolish travelers that choose to take a rest on their waterlogged constructs.”
Rog gave Egalmoth a friendly pat on his shoulder as he began to walk away from the two elves. “Of course he would. We now know that building a fortress near one of those rivers may lead to our provisions being pilfered. Tis quite valuable information.”
Egalmoth grit his teeth and shook his head turning to follow the two troublesome elves he had been tasked to work with. “Elflings. I am working with elflings.”

I love the idea of a sweet and seductive but actually quite clever and deadly Egalmoth. he was entrusted with Glorfindel and Ecthelion as one of Aredhel’s escorts so clearly he must’ve been very cool and trusted? He cut through actual waves of enemies in the Fall of Gondolin and led a successful retreat, leading the remnants of the House of the Swallow after Duilin was killed and they became leaderless? Egalmoth didn’t hesitate, as soon as the situation demanded it he took the House of the Swallow under his wing no pun intended and actually led both of the houses to safety. He was grievously wounded, but he did in fact survive. And he was directly responsible for saving what remained of the of the Swallow and Heavenly Arch which his quick-thinking. Talk about survivor’s guilt!
It makes me sad that he did and survived so much, only to be killed in the last Kinslaying. I wonder if he never recovered from all his wounds in the Fall of Gondolin. Whether he did or didn’t, he absolutely died in the protection of others. I don’t imagine he had any clue or input in the decision made regarding the Silmaril; he was an innocent bystander to everything there.

Lord Egalmoth of Gondolin
I sort of love inventing the fantasy fashion. For this particular piece, I went for the 19th century trend of the stars goldwork embroidery which corresponds with the description of Egalmoth’s cape in the Fall of Gondolin (1917).
Tumblr media
I have some thoughts on Gondolin fashion - since they live in relative peace, I highly doubt the lords of Gondolin usually wear armour - only for the ceremonial occasions or if they serve in the army (such as Ecthelion at the Great gate). Therefore, they have plenty of space for showing off and their fashion is probably significantly different from e.g. Hithlum where they are constantly watching over Angband and they have different things to worry about.
Since Egalmoth is probably one of the richest elves in Gondolin, he wants to flaunt his wealth and I can imagine him as a sort of fashion icon.

Gondolin elves as horses
Tumblr media
(Here it is! Galdor was a bit difficult to make, so he part might be short. I tried to give every elf horse a personality and a unique quirk, so I hope you’re satisfied with them)
requested by @a-contemplation-upon-flowers​
Warnings; mentions of abuse and Melkor being a bit of a dick. 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-You have been looking for work for quite some time now. 
-Bills were stacking up, and you got fired from your last job, so you were having a pretty rough time. 
-Until your friend called and told you they found a job for you. 
-One of their uncles needed a caregiver for a batch of horses at his stable. 
-You considered the offer but doubted your decision because you didn't have much experience with horses. You had ridden a pony once when you were a child, but that hardly counts. 
-But since you were desperate for money, you accepted the offer. 
-Your friend helped you pack up and took you to the stable you will be working. 
-The stable of Gondolin hills. It was one of the famous horse stables, and many famous horses lived there. 
-The scenery was amazing. There were mountains, forests, and rivers. You even saw a couple of eagles flying around. 
-Your friend gave you some tips on how to care for horses and filled you in on what you will be doing at your new workplace. Your friend looked after seven problematic horses, so they had a lot of experience. 
-It sounded insane, and you mentally prepared yourself for the worst. You're not sure you can handle horses who are mean as hell and buckle you off without warning.  
-When you two finally got there, the owner of the stable and your friend's uncle, Ulmo, welcomed you and showed you around. 
-The horses were gorgeous and majestic. You have never seen such creatures like them in your life. 
-Ulmo explained you're going to look after five horses. The owners were either on vacation or too busy with work. You're going to look after them in the meantime. 
-The pay will be good, and you can move into the nearby cottage, so you don't have to worry about travel expenses like paying for a taxi or using a bus. 
-The horses were called Glorfindel, Ecthelion, Rog, Egalmoth, and Galdor. They're very well-behaved horses, so you don't need to fear them. 
-You felt a bit more confident. The job didn't sound too bad, and the horses are good.
-You can handle this job. 
-After settling down and knowing your daily schedule. You began your job. 
Glorfindel
-A beautiful yellowish cream-colored stallion with a mane of gold. 
-He was very friendly when you two first met. His personality is a mix of a charming and adorable golden retriever, so you two managed to hit it off pretty well. 
-He's a jumper and a dressage horse. He has won many prizes and was beautiful as the golden flower. 
-He's sometimes patient enough to do dressage since he has the beauty for it, but he uses his energy for jumping. 
-He was the first one you rode, and he was patient and gentle that you didn't feel nervous while on his back. 
-You loved the experience. 
-He sometimes gets carried away because he enjoys galloping through the woods, and you get nervous. He does slow down when he senses your distress. 
-He's very intelligent for a horse. 
-He also enjoys seeing you smile, so he sometimes does things to make you laugh. 
-Watching him play with a ball is one of the enjoyable things you'll see because he's very adorable. 
-Kinda like an oversized puppy. 
-Glorfindel has an odd love for the yellow flowers. You have seen him rolling around on them many times, which is cute, and he ends up smelling like them. 
-One downside is that he sometimes gets dirty, and you have to wash him. 
-Glorfindel is pretty close with the black horse, Ecthelion, and the two hang out pretty often in the dens. 
-They look cute, and that's how you managed to introduce yourself to Ecthelion. 
+100/10. You adore Glorfindel, and you're almost jealous of his owner. He was well behaved, charming, and adorable. He's like a giant golden retriever.
Ecthelion
-A majestic black stallion with a  mane that almost glows in a deep shade of blue when you look at it from a single angle. 
-He's very cool-headed and polite with you. He's almost like Glorfindel but less energetic and puppy-like. He's more like a friendly swan. 
-He was a dressage horse and loved classical music. 
-He enjoys classical and harp music. He's also okay with pop music, but when it comes to rock, that's when he crosses the line. 
-He doesn't enjoy it at all. 
-He and Glorfindel are very close. You're pretty sure Glorfindel only does dressage so he can compete together with Ecthelion. 
-He's easy to ride. You don't feel nervous, and you actually feel relaxed how smooth and balanced his moves are. 
-He's your second favorite horse to ride. 
-Ecthelion has a peculiar love for the fountain, which is located in the front yard of the stable. 
-He sometimes just hangs around it and watches birds taking a bath in the water. 
-He has a peculiar love for the water too, which was surprising to you. 
-You took him for a horse who didn't like getting dirt on his coat or getting himself wet. He enjoys the coolness the water brings, especially during the summer heat. 
-He doesn't even mind if it's dirty river water too.
-He would play with it then take a dip, which ended up you falling from his back into the water. 
-You got soaked too, but it was pretty adorable to watch, so you had no hard feelings over the incident. 
-Ecthelion and Glorfindel are a peculiar duo. Glorfindel is the energetic one, while Ecthelion is the cool-headed one. You adore them both with no limits. 
100/10. Ecthelion is a friendly horse. He's a bit picky about the music, but you didn't mind. He's a majestic but also a water-loving puppy. 
Rog
-Big was the first thought you had when you first saw him. 
-His coat was dark reddish. He was majestic and maybe the biggest horse you have ever seen. One confusing thing about him was his faint scars until Ulmo told you the backstory behind them. 
-Before Rog came to Gondolin hills, he lived in Melkor's riding school, where he was overworked and abused. You didn't know a lot about Melkor, except he's the creep that sometimes came to visit. 
-Rog's owner wasn't bad and tried to leave but was trapped in a ridiculous debt. Melkor sometimes does that to horse owners, so they won't be able to leave his stable. He taxes them for meaningless things, and they need to pay a ridiculous amount of money, or he will have the law used against them. He will have their horses if they are not able to do so. 
-Rog's owner couldn't pay the debt, and the only solution to save Rog from Melkor's clutches was to sell him away to Ulmo, who agreed to buy him. 
-The plan worked, and Rog's owner was able to pay off the debt by doing side work which took a long time. Melkor wasn't able to get his hands on Rog because Ulmo had the ownership, and that was the end of it. 
-Ulmo was still technically Rog's owner. Rog's original owner didn't want to take him back yet because they still needed to pay off some debts, so they worked most of the time. 
-You met them a couple of times, and they're pretty nice. They're happy you're willing to look after Rog. You were not complaining because Rog was a sweetheart. 
-Rog was a friendly giant. He was also very gentle with you because he once accidentally sent his owner to the hospital because he stepped on their foot. 
-He's very well behaved, but cleaning and washing him was a challenge with his size. You have to stand on a stool so you can reach his back. 
-Rog was a carriage horse, so he was often used to pull carriages on tourist tours. 
-His owner didn't ride him often, but when you had permission. It was the scary and exciting same time. Everything looked small when you sat on his back. 
-Rog enjoys going on forest trips with Glorfindel and Ecthelion. Galloping was easy for him when he didn't need to pull the carriage. 
-He refrains from neighing, so he's pretty silent most of the time. You wondered why until one day, he let out a very loud neigh which almost sounded like a roar. You panicked and thought there was a mountain lion but then realized it was just Rog. 
-He would feel guilty for scaring you, but you assure him it was all right.
-People are a bit intimidated by his size, so they don't dare to ride him. However, the children loved him. 
-They like taking rides when he pulls the carriage and even wants to ride him. 
-Rog has incredible patience, so it was okay if two or three children rode on his back while you walked him. 
-It's adorable and makes your heart melt, making you glad that you took this job. 
-You also made a mental note to throw a bucket full of horse shit at Melkor if he ever dared to go near Rog again. 
9/10. Rog is a gentle giant, and you adore him. It's a bit troublesome when you try to clean him because's he's so big, and sometimes you get pulled along when walking him around. You still like him, though. 
Egalmoth
-He's a beautiful silver dabble like a horse. His coat is bright grey with some white patterns, and his mane is in a color of silver. 
-He is a majestic stallion, but he sure is one cocky bastard. 
-He likes to tease you a lot. He sometimes does things just to piss you off, like pushing you, slapping you with his tail then laughing like a gremlin.   
-They weren't malicious, just straight up annoying. It was like Egalmoth was testing how much it would take you to lose your composure, and you have almost lost it several times. 
-He was a jumper and one of the best ones. He had won many competitions, which won him money, and that's why he has the most extravagant things in the stable. 
-His gears are expensive and shiny, his brushes are new and soft, and he only eats quality food. 
-You never have trouble finding his stuff. All you need to do is see if the thing is shiny, then you know it's Egalmoth's.
-You have ridden him many times, which is not your favorite time. The little shit thinks it's funny to make sudden moves and almost have you fall from his back. 
-You were a newbie, so your reactions were much more expressive. You hated when he did that, and the little shit knew it. He found enjoyment in your anger. 
-He sometimes acts like he doesn't like you or need you, but when you don't pay him attention for a long time, his mood will change, and he will come looking for you. 
-He's one whiny baby when he does that. 
-He once even grabbed onto your shirt with his mouth and pulled you back. So you would pay attention to him. 
-His owner was losing interest in riding and didn't often come to visit, so he was pretty lonely. 
-You pay attention to him, so he actually likes you a lot. 
-You would feel bad, then spend some extra time with him. 
8/10. Egalmoth is sweet when he stops being an annoying little shit. Cocky bastard, you don't like riding him much because he still buckles and jumps just to scare you shitless. It's pretty funny when he turns into a whiny baby. 
Galdor
-Galdor is a dark brown stallion with a forehead marking that was leaf-shaped. It's like Galdor has a little leaf on his forehead. 
-He's sweet and gentle. He was pretty shy when you first met, but he quickly warmed up to you. 
-He didn't misbehave, but he was easily startled by things. 
-You have once or twice fallen from his back. 
-He was a cross country jumper and one of the fastest horses in the stable. 
-He often hangs out with Egalmoth, and the two look cute when they hang out in the den. 
-Galdor has a peculiar love for this one tree in the den. 
-He takes naps under it and sometimes rubs himself against the tree to get good scratches. 
-He gets sulky if he doesn't get in the same den the tree is, so you always bring him to the same place.
-Another peculiar thing about him was that he liked eating tree leaves. It was strange at first, but it didn't cause him health issues, so you didn't question it. 
-It was just his peculiar quirk. 
9/10. Galdor is another sweetheart, but he gets easily scared. He's the least troublesome horse you ever met, so you like taking care of him. 
(I was going to add Maeglin but then I had a sad backstory in mind and It would have complicated things, so I didn’t add him in the end. Well, I hope you enjoyed)

Elves Dressing Up for Halloween
Gondolin
Tumblr media
Halloween Request:  Hello! For a Halloween request, could I ask for headcanons of what the elves of Gondolin would dress up as for a costume? Would any be extremely hesitant? Would any be receptive to couples costumes? Thank you (and if not, thanks for taking time to read this!) 😌 - @sterling-roses

Turgon
Turgon honestly isn’t one for dressing up at all on Halloween and will not be partial to even couples costuming. If anything he would much rather host a party and keep his usual attire than have to dress up as anything. Even if it is customary. 
At most you may get a masquerade mask on him and that is as far as it will go. So every year, being quite the creature of habit, he prefers to go as a King than let his hair down a little and relax. Though Turgon will support you in almost whatever costume you decide to go in AS LONG AS it is appropriate. 
Nothing inappropriate or overly sexual as Turgon is a little bit of a prude. Though he won’t fight you too hard and be considerably flustered all night over it and bite his tongue. He’ll eventually grow used to whatever costume he may not find appropriate but it certainly takes some time for him to get used to it. 
Glorfindel
Glorfindel loves dressing up, being the big ray of sunshine that he is, and has a lot of fun dressing up! He is really creative and thinks outside the box on the costume ideas that he comes up with. 
And when you ask him to dress up in couples costuming he immediately jumps at the chance to be able to do so. Glorfindel also loves to be able to help create these said out of the box costumes too. For example you have a ton of cardboard boxes at your disposal, he will absolutely spend the time to make a costume out of it. Robot? Fish tank? Washing Machine? He’ll put it together.
Glorfindel also really loves puny costume ideas too. Anything that can be a big play on words he is bound to figure out an idea for you both to wear. No matter how ridiculously cheesy that idea might be, Glorfindel will absolutely run with it. He has a blast coming up with the ideas. 
You are absolutely welcome to assist in coming up with something, Glorfindel loves to hear any of your ideas. And if you are more partial to an idea that you have, he is happy to relent to you and get your costumes put together with whatever theme you prefer. Either way, Glorfindel is just really happy to spend time with you like this!
Ecthelion
Ecthelion is pretty rigid and formal and strict, so when it comes to dressing up for Halloween, he isn’t all too elaborate in dressing up. If anything he may add an accessory or two to a really nice outfit, but it is never anything over the top. 
So when you suggest couples costuming, Ecthelion is a little hesitant to join you in any of the ideas that you might have. They might need to start off relatively conservative and more classic like Period specific costuming or Historical Figures or something Masquerade style. 
He feels a little odd all dressed up, especially since it is not the one or two accessories that might dress up his costume. But Ecthelion trusts you deeply to not put him in something ridiculous or make him look ridiculous and tries to enjoy the fun of the night all dressed up. 
I do not recommend really letting him choose in the beginning of your costume couple planning because he will not venture even into the more conservative spaces. Choosing to keep it more to what he is already comfortable with. 
Rog
Rog loves to dress up and though he does, his costumes can be pretty simple. Happy to dress up and throw together whatever he might have at home. Even if it means wearing work attire for Halloween. A blacksmith is technically a costume. 
So when you suggest couples costuming, Rog is really happy to let you take the reins and lead the way on what to dress up as! He’s a lot of fun and can easily get super into character with it. Such as if you want to dress him up like he walked right out of Woodstock 1960 and give him a few verbal cues to use, he will shamelessly use them. 
Rog’s a big ball of fun and the life of the party, and after the first time you two couples costume expect to couples costume from then on out. Cops and Robbers, Period Costuming, Heavenly Themed, Character Specific, whatever it may be he is down for it (unless it is offensive). The ellon will absolutely costume with you in those inflatable costumes and have a ball with it. Inflatable sumo or dinosaur is absolutely up for grabs. 
Just know you will probably have to have it custom made and fitted for him properly. And Rog will absolutely try to wrestle or horseplay with someone in the said inflatable costumes. Anticipate that he may go home in it with it deflated because he will eventually pop it.
Penlod
Penlod in his true fashion is dressing up as a Historical Figure. You’ve told him how costumes work and that he can be anything he wants to be, and the ellon is going to choose the most interesting Historical Figure he can. 
He will absolutely be as detailed accurate as he can be, from the costume and to the accessories. Penlod puts a lot of attention into his costume and the little pieces that bring it all together. 
Penlod will absolutely do couples costumes together, but he will not budge on it not being a historical figure. He WILL consider being a regular civilian in x time period if thats what you wish! Ancient Greece? 1400′s Renaissance? French Rocco? 1800′s? 1920′s? 50′s? You name it and he will dress up as it. He’s a sucker for histories and will happily spend time compiling a costume that is just as detailed as his!
You both will absolutely look like you’ve walked right out of the era you two dressed up as. With Penlod indulging facts about the era to anyone who will listen to him. 
Egalmoth
Egalmoth loves being able to dress up really exquisitely and jumps at any opportunity to be able to do so. His costumes are so incredibly elaborate and gem and fine stitch filled they’re absolutely heavenly to look upon. 
Sometimes he really doesn’t even pick a theme of what he wants to dress up as when it comes to Halloween. Egalmoth just wants to dress up nicely, he’s a little bit of the “he’s got the spirit but is confused” saying. Though he is absolutely  aware that he is supposed to pick a theme. He just chooses to not always do so.
He will absolutely couples costume with you, but when he does, Egalmoth absolutely wants to pick the theme. He’s bold so he is unafraid to pick unearthly themes like dressing up as the Vala of such regal nature, or Ancient Gods in rich costume style or Angels or Monarchy. Anything that allows him to be able to put you both in an incredibly unearthly and regal status he is here for. 
Anticipate that Egalmoth, like Penlod, has an extreme eye for detail. So no expense will be spared and your simple costume will quite quickly become a luxurious and intricate affair. 
Galdor
Galdor is really go with the flow and has a knack for choosing a good costume with his more go with the flow nature. Though he won’t really dress up unless he finds it necessary to do so for like a party. If he’s solo on Halloween he’s more likely to just stay cozy. But when it comes to couples costuming, he is all for it!
Galdor’s only preference is that he prefers the nature themes, but he won’t strictly adhere to them and will explore other costume themes with you. The only line he will draw is if he finds any of the themes to be vulgar or offensive in anyway.
Whether you two are Witches and Wizards together or the Angel and Devil, Galdor is going to be happy to meet your expectations. He’s got a pretty good sense of humor though and will be happy to dress up in awkward costumes or whatever other humorous costuming you might come up with.
Maeglin
Maeglin is completely and totally hesitant at the idea of dressing up as anything. The idea of just dressing up as whatever, just seems like an open line for someone to possibly criticize what he has chosen and that is an immediate dislike for Maeglin. 
As for couples costuming its really really REALLY going to take some convincing to get him to participate. If anything, the first few Halloweens he is probably not going to be receptive to any of it at all. Totally opting to just tagging along while you dress up. 
Though he gives in to the peer pressure of everyone asking him where is his costume or hearing how it would be cute if you two dressed up together. Maeglin absolutely lets you choose what you want to dress up as, but I warn that you might want to start out far more conservative and safe options like him being a Knight and you being a Princess/Prince or perhaps you’re both Pirates or maybe you dress up like Ancient Greeks/Romans. 
Something that isn’t going to be too over the top, but just enough out of his comfort zone people will recognize that you dressed up.
