Producer Mingi: this is so cool and fun! I love music so much and I'm so lucky I get to do this for a living! Atiny are going to love this! ❤

Producer Hongjoong: day 15 of no human contact, I've knocked back 12 energy drinks in the past 3 hours, I can see noises and hear colors, the last time I slept was 3 days ago and only because I passed out, the best 8 minutes of my life, Atiny are going to love this but still look at other oppas😔

But also

Hongjoong on live: 😊💞😘 hello my beloved Atiny, how are you? I love you! ❤💖🥰

Mingi on live: *dying animal noises* the economy is in shambles and we're all doomed. i am sentient but at what cost. tiramisù cake save me 🎶

Gods, I love these two

It is hope and love and compassion that saves each character individually, and because of that, the world. Frodo fails in the end, but his acts of compassion from earlier in the story save the day. And even as the world is saved, it is acknowledged that Frodo failed—without judgement, without blame. He fails, and he is still loved.

And like what can happen in the real world, he is still irrevocably changed by his trauma. But there is still hope—he has to leave, but he leaves with the promise of healing, and the promise that his ever-faithful Sam will follow.

Aragorn, Boromir, Frodo, Sam; each and every one of the characters are driven by their love of the people around them and their hope for the future. They cling to that love and hope throughout their trials, and that bears them through.

Of course people are watching it for comfort!!!! Lotr is eternally consistent in its promise, which Sam articulates so clearly in The Two Towers: “Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines, it’ll shine out the clearer.”
