Hello! I am like Gandalf, in that my attention wanders all over the place and I have a tendency to walk out of projects halfway through because there's something interesting going on over there and I've gotta check it out/there's a fiery chasm demon I gotta kill real quick. I love all things Arda (which is mostly what you'll find on here) but, whenever my wandering brain lets me focus on things, I like to write Tolkien fics and think about Gondor. I enjoy resurrecting Tolkien's female characters, rage and grief, overuse of parentheses, and unromantic discussions about love and marriage. Loving the Dol Amroth family is as close as I come to specialising.

prideboards β‘ ace boromir β‘ for @king-on-carven-throne β‘ picrew
Boromir, five years the elder, beloved by his father, was like him in face and pride, but in little else. Rather he was a man after the sort of King EΓ€rnur of old, taking no wife and delighting chiefly in arms; fearless and strong, but caring little for lore, save the tales of old battles.
βThe Lord of the Rings: Appendix A, βGondor and the Heirs of AnΓ‘rionβ
One of the final resources before I can post my geographic resource masterlist
Waterfalls
There are so many rivers and streams in Beleriand and their springs and sources sometimes play important roles in the story.
Eithel Ivrin of the spring of Ivrin was located unnamed mountain in the Ered Wethrin , on the southern border of Hithlum to the north. The lands of Nargothrond fell directly south. The river Narog, the largest and southernmost tributary of the river Sirion flowed from these pools to where it met Sirion in the Valley of Willows. They was said to be blessed by Ulmo and were the place of several important events in The Silmarillion and Great Tales. The pool was defiled by Glaurung who also uprooted the beech trees which grew around it
Eithel Sirion was in the eastern foothills of the Ered Wethrin, on the border of Mithrim to the west and Ard Galen to the East. The river Sirion, the largest of the rivers of Beleriand ran from Eithel Sirion to the havens of Sirion and into the ocean. It overlooked the plains of Ard-galen. It was the location of Barad Eithel, the fortress of Fingolfin.Β
Rivilβs Well was located the highlands of western Dorthonion. Rivil was the smallest and northernmost tributary to the river Sirion which it met a short ways later at the Fen of Serech. It was the location where Beren tracked, found, and killed the orcs responsible for the killing of his father and other BΓ«orian men
Shadowy Spring was in The Ered Gorgoroth, which separated Dorthonion from Nan Dungortheb, the dreadful valley north of Doriath. According to Christopher Tolkienβs map of Beleriand, the shadowy spring is located south of the pass of Aglon. Aros and Esgalduin, two tributaries to Sirion, flow from these springs to meet Sirion on the southern border to Doriath
While not named, we also know that the source for Nen Lalaith is in the Ered Wethrin too, upon Amon Darthir. We also know that the source for Gelion is on the southern side of the hill of Himring on the March of Maedhros.

Nobody seems to be drawing Este these days and I was itching for a monochrome pallet practice session (I donβt think that it really worked). I guess you could also blame that post about Asian clothing that keeps appearing on my dash.
itβs not weird to find fanfiction from 2021, or 2017, or 2014 that youβve never read and actually taking your time to read it.
itβs not weird to love it and comment and leave kudos because the author will probably still see it someday and it will make them happy.
itβs not weird to like said authorβs work so much that you want to go look for other fics from them.
itβs not weird to go through the authors profile and look for other fics from the ships you like (or maybe some that youβll give a chance because you liked the author) and maybe bookmark them for later.
itβs not weird to read these other fics and like them too and comment on them because you actually like them and you want to let the author know.
itβs not weird to read fanfiction from 5, or 8, or 10 years ago and actually enjoy and engage with it because itβs perfectly normal to relate to something thatβs less than a decade old!
letβs stop treating fanfiction like theyβre instagram posts that stop being interesting in 24 hours! fanfiction is NOT social media, fanfiction is art!!! and art doesnβt get old in one day, one year, or even a decade!
read fanfiction! write fanfiction! comment on fanfiction! letβs not let fanculture die people!!!!!
ahhhh this is the best thing I've ever seen, a favorite artist taking requests for pride month?! If you're amenable, could we get a bisexual Γowyn? Perhaps with some color coordinating flowers she grew in her gardens in Ithilien? <3
Also for @groovy-lady

the north of ireland has the second highest rate of femicide in all of europe. it was dubbed one of the most unsafe places to be a woman in western europe. 30 women and girls in the north have been victims of femicide since november 2020. none of the people who set belfast on fire last night have ever gotten violent about that or made threats against the perpetrators. they don't care that the family of the victim of the attack this week (stephen ogilvy) have begged for there to be calm and no riots. they don't care that the brother of natasha mcnally called them out as toxic. they're just taking any opportunity they can to be brazenly racist out in the open. they aren't acting out of ignorance, a lack of education, or empathy for victims; they're simply racist. they are adults making a choice to intimidate, destroy, and target marginalised people. they are endangering black and brown families, setting their homes on fire, and destroying buses and public facilities to terrorise communities. black and brown families with young children are seeking refuge in their white neighbours' houses because they're so terrified. what's happening in belfast is a pogrom by the same people who burn effigies of irish people every july. they don't give a shit about victims, they only want an excuse to surveil and threaten black and brown people, who had nothing to do with the horrific incident, and tar them all with the same brush and claim that they're the dangerous ones. call it what it is: RACISM.
