I need help finding a fic!
Its Gigolas, modern AU. Legolas has this poster/calendar of firemen (like those hot ones where each month has a pic of a different guy…) and Gimli is one of the months… Then L&G meet at a supermarket and go to L’s home to have a chat, but end up hooking up. It’s either rated M or E (not too sure) and im pretty sure its only one chapter….

Thanks for the tag @loki-is-my-kink-awakeningnd @insert-witty-user-name-here
Rules: post
the top 5 works you’re most proud of that you released in 2022 (not necessarily your most popular)
your top 4 current WIPs that you’re excited to release in the new year
your top 3 biggest improvements in your writing over the past year
your top 2 resolutions (ways you wish to improve your writing/blog) for the new year
your number 1 favourite line you’ve written this year!
5 works I'm proud of
It's always super hard for me to be proud of what I write, so on top of that, finding 5…:
It’s never too late to love A Mystrade soulmate AU
I wish you could stay a little longer Dreamling - Five times Hob doesn't dare ask Dream to stay and once he doesn't have to.
Reaching My first Legolas/Gimli - That moment when I decided to leave my comfort zone.
Sometimes it only takes a few words to say something A personal challenge to say the maximum of things with 50 words.
The beginning of something new My first Dreamling, the day they started to posses my mind...
4 WIPs I'm excited about
Dreamling - The Lake House AU
Dreamling - Lady hawke AU
Dreamling - Soulmate AU where Hob realizes that he has met his soul mate but Dream does not know it.
I only have three because I plan very little…
3 improvements I've made
That’s for my regular readers to say, because I’ve no idea !
2 Writing Resolutions
Writing is something extremely spontaneous so I could say the resolution of more planning maybe, but at the same time I would feel like going against myself.
Number 1 favourite line
(Not really a line but my favoutite)
Then Dream smiled to reassure him and brought his hand to his lips, just because he could.
Because Hob allowed him to.
Because once the invisible line had been crossed, nothing could stop them from touching each other freely.
Inadvertently had become deliberately.
Glances that used to linger in secret, now did so openly.
Words of love were no longer just thought but said out loud.
Friends to lovers.
The already thin line had long since disappeared to allow them to embrace what they were to each other.
Friends and lovers.

A line from the fic I’m writing, for your enjoyment-
“Aye, Lady Galadriel is truly the fairest face my dwarven eyes have had the blessing to look upon. But her fairness is like that of the sun, a reverence for that you can barely stand to look at. Legolas, you have the fairness of the moon. I could look at you till the end of the age and my gaze would never want to wander.”
I love them

"How do your people court then?"
The question was not as abrupt as it could seem, firstly because the news that his brother was courting had left Legolas in deep thought for a number of days, secondly because Legolas had long ago confessed his curiosity about the lives and customs of Gimli's kin, and thirdly because Legolas' grace was well-known to be in his light feet and not his manners.
However, Gimli saw no reason to let him have his own way entirely. "And by my people do you mean the Longbeards, or the Dwarrow of Erebor, or the wandering mender that I now seem to be?"
"I meant," Legolas said, "wandering jesters."
Gimli lightly drummed the stone drum he had been fixing so that the night's music might not be ruined. "That you should know better than I, master wit."
"You acknowledge my wit! Tonight I shall see Vingilot come down and bid me welcome," Legolas replies.
Legolas then threw himself down on the floor beside Gimli's seat and lost himself in the sound of the drumming of Gimli's inexpert hands. It was dwarven-made, but dwarrow themselves did not use such drums, Gimli had told him. This was purely a Gondorian affectation. Yet, the stone came alive under Gimli's hands. Never a stonesmith, but the worn out grooves and scratches had told him where to chip at the stone to rebuild it, smaller than before, yet the sound remaining. Legolas was as still as the drums, except his hair, strands floating with the breeze.

For the @glimbowweek Enemies / Rivals prompt, here's Glimmer and Bow as Gimli and Legalos, a thing I've joked about multiple times and had to make reality.
(Did you know that you can just draw anything you want and no one can stop you?)

"with full Intentions of marriage": hey bro let me braid your hair bro, c'mon bro I swear it doesn't mean anything In my complicated and secretive culture.
"also with full Intentions of marriage": Of course you can braid my hair bro, just as bros do, but only if I can braid yours aswell, I am completely unaware of the actual implications of braids In your complicated and secretive culture.

I've finally read Sansûkh (and Tasâlalkhud) and it made me lose my fucking mind it's one of the best things I've ever read wtf
I cried SO MUCH ?? And it was so beautiful ??? And I wasn't left feeling hollow and depressed at the end ! Like the characters actually heal and get better and become at peace and happy, despite the grueling emotional (and physical) pain they've been through !
Thorin arriving in the Halls... Dís grieving... Arwen and Bilbo bonding over their Kings... Moria... Dáin's end... GODDAMN !

If you are writing fic with any character being in a romantic relationship with Senshi, you cannot underestimate the importance of one of that character's love languages being "pointing out and removing crumbs from his beard."

I am not joking. Ask my partner.

On instinct, he put his head on Gimli’s shoulder, and felt him drop off almost immediately. (...) Before he did fall into Elvish sleep, he heard Gandalf say, very quietly (but not quietly enough for his sharp ears to miss it), to Aragorn: “How long?” “Since Lothlórien,” Aragorn said, equally quiet. “Not long, then,” said Gandalf. “Long enough,” said Aragorn. He sounded weary; this made sense, as nothing else in their conversation did. He had been riding long and was tired.
So I recently binge-read @windandwater Lord of the Rings fanfiction “Where you go, I will go” and reaaaaally enjoyed it! I got trapped by the great storytelling, Gimli/Legolas, and the found family trope (my biggest weakness!), and if that’s your jam I recommend you go have a look at it, it’s awesome.
If my inactivity around here has shown anything it’s that i’m stuck in a massive art block the size of a mountain. Yet I somehow managed to get to the end of a sketch which is entirely meant as a thanks-for-a-super-cool-fic-i-love-you to @windandwater . Maybe in a few months time I’ll actually get to the stage where I can render and color it! The future is full of mysteries~
Forgot to add that I was very much influenced by a picturecalled “Couch cuddle” from @adorkastock Adorkastock I stumbled over once and couldn’t forget.

y’all will just brand two characters who hate each other and then end up together as enemies to lovers. but no. there’s layers to this stuff**:
friends to enemies to lovers (i.e., catradora): grew up together, started out close (platonic only for this one, will accept lingering crush/feelings, but never acted upon); had a falling out/tragic “breakup”, eventually worked it out and got into a romantic relationship they never got to have before
friends to lovers to enemies to lovers (i.e. wolfstar): similar to the previous, but they worked their shit out and actually had a relationship before the big “breakup,” which makes the back to lovers after all the enemy stuff all the more satisfying
lovers to enemies (i.e., satosugu; cherik; the doctor x the master): l loved you once, but you turned to the dark side and I can never forgive you despite the lingering sadness of having once trusted you like no other. i am vulnerable because you knew me. 😵‍💫😭 or just bickering bitter exes 🤪
enemies AND lovers (i.e., lawlight): i feel like this is so specific to light and L, but i’m sure there’s more. yeah, they hate each other and they also want to fuck each other. self-explanatory. toxic but in a fun way
enemies to friends to lovers (i.e., eruri; sambucky; violyn; gigolas; lumity): this is the peak of the content. this is what people really want in that enemies to lovers package. that middle ground of friendship where they dance around each other in a nice slowburn, denying romantic feelings whilst still getting used to tolerating one another’s presence bc they used to hate/extremely dislike each other…yeah 😎
**i just used ships i’m very familiar with, plus my own personal headcanons for the non-canon ones, but i’m sure there’s a trillion more examples of all these plus more

you guys seemed to enjoy my cringe-fail legolas sexy gimli post so here’s some more of my thoughts ab that dynamic:
-when legolas goes home and announces his engagement to gimli thranduil is shocked but every other elf is like “yeah checks out. that kid’s always been a little weird.”
-gimli goes home to announce his engagement to legolas and every dwarf promptly loses their SHIT at the fact that THE gimli, son of gloin, is betrothed. only to further lose their shit at the fact that it’s to that weird elf prince that they have never heard speak unless to send some sort of diplomatical message for his father but some dwarflings once saw him sobbing in front of a tree in the middle of a rainstorm while gripping a fallen branch.
-thranduil only gives his blessing to the proposal once he realises just how angry all of erebor is that their most eligible bachelor, gimli, the silver-tongued battle ready diplomant and descendant of kings, has been stolen away by thranduils weird tree-hugging naked star gazing hippie son.

Thanks @loki-is-my-kink-awakening for the tag
Rules: Pick five fragments from your unfinished WIPs and then tag five people to keep it going. Let’s have fun with it and help each other shape those fragments into published fics!
I'm not a big planner so I have very little wip since I write spontaneously most of the time. So here's what I have.
Thanks @loki-is-my-kink-awakening
Rules: Pick five fragments from your unfinished WIPs and then tag five people to keep it going. Let’s have fun with it and help each other shape those fragments into published fics!
So I'm not a big planner so I have very little wip since I write spontaneously most of the time. So here's what I have.
1. Dreamling Lakehouse AU
The young boy entered the classroom and the teacher turned to her students, "Read the paragraph we are working on, I don't want to hear a sound." She stepped forward and closed the door behind her before reaching out to Hob. "Professor Constantine, professor of ethics and philosophy, but please call me Johanna. Nice to meet you. New professor?" Hob nodded, "Hob Gadling, history teacher, but call me Hob. Principal Kinkaid asked me to bring you this promising young man. You will need to find whatever punishment you deem appropriate for his tardiness." Johanna nodded, gave a small mischievous smile but said nothing. Hob, couldn't help but ask curiously, "What will you give him as punishment?" Johanna's smile widened, "Since I guess our budding superhero is late because of a good deed, I will give him the opportunity to do a good deed by helping the janitor with one of his chores during recess." She leaned toward him and continued conspiratorially, "He won't find it a punishment, but the important thing is that others believe it."
2. Dreamling - Hob and Lou's story
"It is you! You are Lou's secret!"
To say that Hob and Dream were stunned by the young woman's words would be an understatement. The young woman was now leaning over Hob then looked at Dream, "Wow… I can't believe it's really you, Hob Gadling and his stranger…" She glanced behind her to make sure they were alone and continued, "…you really are immortal then?" "Wait, wait… stop, how do you know that? How do you know all this?" The young woman smiled softly and replied, "Because I'm Lou's great-great-great granddaughter."
3. Legolas/Gimli
Legolas awoke abruptly to the sensation of Gimli wrapping his arm around his waist and pulling him against him. Amused, he realized that his dwarf had done it in his sleep. He found it quite endearing. The elf turned slightly to the side and stayed in that position, watching Gimli sleep. It wasn't the first time, and he liked this occupation. He enjoyed seeing the dwarf's relaxed face, the little puffs of air that came out of his mouth intermittently and made the hair on his beard fly, the grimaces that crossed his face accompanied by little grunts because he was probably dreaming. All this while holding Legolas tightly against him. He wrapped his arms around Gimli, feeling a warm feeling come over him, when he saw the way his lover was snuggling up to him.
"I will be dead before I see the Ring in the hands of an Elf!"
"Never trust an Elf!"
How far they had come.

1.
Gimli has witnessed, before this, the grief of a father or a mother who has outlived their child. Even as his craft lay elsewhere, like all young and strong Dwarves half his life was in the military. As he grew in stature and wisdom, he had begun to lead patrols, or even the occasional skirmish against orcs and spiders and other dark creatures innumerable and unnamed. With this came the duty of going to parents and telling them that their child had perished bravely and gained much glory, whether it was true or not. Perhaps it brought them some peace, although Gimli doubted it.
Some of that grief he could see in Elrond's face, from time to time, as the day wore on, and the gentle lordliness occasionally slipped away to reveal the father. More than one parent, in Gimli's knowledge, quietly gave themselves to the forge after completing their child's last rites, but elves, of course, had no such recourse.
So Gimli dances, when Legolas and Pippin drag him off, and drinks as much as he can to the King and his new Queen's happy marriage, he scatters gold according to his own customs, and flowers according to elven, and cheers when the bride and groom dance on a shield until it is beaten flat, as the custom of Gondor calls for.
And when the wedding ends, he walks long with Legolas, hither and thither, to balconies and roofs, but when they reach the final juncture he unhesitatingly goes to his own room. He does not ask.
2.
Despite what elves seem to believe, occasionally to Gimli's amusement, Dwarves too can love living things. Sometimes they even love Dwarves back. Gimli has had to gently counsel a young dwarf, not even two full decades old, to let go of a wild parrot that she had found half-dead and nursed back to health. It was almost as much a task to coax the parrot away from her, she who had fed it grain by grain when its beak was barely capable of movement. Yet, once it was out of the cold and dampness of the Mountain, it immediately burst into song, voice going from a stale croak born of disuse to the richness born of joy, calling forth many of its own kind to come sing with it. In forty years, the parrot has ever and anon come back to the edge of the forest, but it grew too dangerous to allow their children, so it could only sing from afar. Even were it willing to come back, Gimli told the dwarf, it would waste away again so far from the greenness of its home and the song of its own kind.
In the Glittering Caves of Aglarond, Legolas is as a tall young tree, and as silent as one, a shock to the eye amongst the lovely veins of ore that go line by line unending into the far deepness. His green and grey travel cloak conceals him entirely, and yet the rippling gold of his hair marks him out to the eye at once.
In Fangorn, where finally they walked only two alone, Gimli sees much to wonder at, not only in the trees and fauna around him but in his companion. Legolas seems young indeed, laughing and singing, even more than usual.
And so, even as they make a fire and lay their bedrolls, Gimli does not ask.
3.
After they had walked a long road, they rest, weary yet happy. Unknowingly, Gimli comes to tell Legolas the story of a Firebeard bride. Her Ironfoot husband took her to the far South, and she left all she had to follow him, but after the marriage they came to much misfortune. Many of his kin died and those who lived a while before succumbing told of a terrible beast who ripped them apart with claws alone.
Gimli pauses and Legolas says, with surety, "It was the bride."
"Yes," Gimli says, "and it ends very sadly, with her laying hands on her own babe. Unable to accept it when in her right mind, she ultimately took her own life."
"I pity her, although you may not," Legolas says.
"You are mistaken, she is indeed pitied by all," Gimli replies. "But we also take it as a lesson, that a diamond must be set in its own place and coal in its own."
Legolas laughs quietly. "And yet, even I, ignorant elf that I am, know that one cannot have diamonds without first having coal."
His eyes glint challengingly at Gimli, who finds himself rising to it on instinct, who says, "And yet one would not expect diamond to burn like coal, or a parrot to live long in a cave, or a father to outlive his son."
Then he flinches. I did not ask, he tells himself, surely I did not.
Legolas laughs again, ringing out like bells or the sound of a waterfall from far off, beckoning. "A parrot may nest in a tree outside a cave, and with time coal may do a diamond's task. I have outlived the deadly quest we were on, and what there is beyond this is not in my ken, but my father will not have cause to grieve me for many years yet."
"Some things cannot be asked for," Gimli says, his heart beating like it would escape his chest and fly to his love, if Legolas holds out his hand for it.
"You need not ask," Legolas replies and leans down to hold his furred cheek and chin in two long-fingered hands and kiss him like gentle rain after scorching summer.
