Hello and welcome to my blog!
I'm Erdariel, this is my multi-fandom blog which I try to keep well tagged and organized; fandoms are tagged (and in some cases individual works or storylines within one fandom may also be tagged), major characters and ones I otherwise post about a lot are tagged, and fanart, fanfic, meta, and headcanons are all tagged as such. Posts that are about fan communities in general but not any specific individual fandom are tagged with "fandom".
My askbox is open and the anon should be on, so whether or not I have reblogged any ask games recently, feel free to just send me asks whenever! ^_^ My DMs likewise should be open, so if you wanna chat, feel free to message me!! I like making new friends and getting to know people!
Self-promo
Current Projects & Recent Fics:
I Sit and Think of Times There Were Before - Silm/Unfinished Tales fanfic - In his old age, Isildur's former esquire Ruinamacil, known to later histories only as Ohtar, writes his own account of his escape from the ambush at Gladden Fields and journey to Imladris, and the history of his friend whom Isildur ordered to flee with him.
Tell me, Death, tell me... - Silm fanfic, AU - Galadriel is asked to investigate Carcharoth's corpse, and makes a horrifying discovery about the nature of the monster. Spurred by what she has found out, she begins a quest for vengeance against Sauron.
The King of the Tower of the Moon (links to a masterpost) - a book canon longfic about Isildur and his family that I'm translating to English. Originally written in Finnish as Kuun Tornin kuningas by Mithrellas
Selected Fics and Meta Posts:
No Less Valiant - LOTR fanfic - A Rohirrim noblewoman tells her children the story of Idis, wife of Eorl the Young, and how she fought in her people's defense while Eorl was gone to Gondor.
Tired with all these, from these would I be gone - Silm fanfic - In the aftermath of the Flight of the Noldor, Finarfin cannot help but fear that those who remain will not accept him as their king.
Monster in a Shattered Mirror - Silm fanfic, AU - Finrod did not know all there was to know of Sauron's werewolves when he challenged the wolf in an attempt to save Beren. Now he drifts through the Halls of Mandos and tries to make sense of his fragmented memories.
Ramblings on TĂșrin, Kullervo, and their similarities and differences - for once not about how their suicide scenes are practically identical! (Meta)
On Aragorn and his response to feeling like he messed up - (Meta)
Thoughts on Aragorn's characterization in the books vs the PJ movies - (Meta)
Indeed the Everlasting Darkness shall be our lot - on Maglor and the nature of the Everlasting Darkness (sort of weird halfway point between fic, meta, and headcanon)
If there's something (subject matter, trope, character, anything) that you'd like me to tag for any reason that I don't currently tag, please let me know and I'll try to keep in mind to tag it in the future!
