“Bree”

Maitimo in Himring.

Lalwen is one of these mysterious Silm ladies I have an inexplicable fondness for and I'm sad we don't know more about her.

But I do like the fanon that she was the "cool aunt" to her more than a dozen nephews and nieces.

Generally cheerful and quick to laugh, she was always ready to goof around with the kids and would frequently sneak them candy and other treats. (And later, they all came to her when they wanted to discuss their problems and worries with an adult who was not a parent.)

Anyway, here she is with Fingon after she brought him back some cakes from a boring banquet she escaped from.

Not that she plays favourites, Lalwen loves all her nephews and nieces equally, but Fingon, being the firstborn son of her closest sibling might have a special place in her heart. (And I've already drawn Turgon and Finrod, as well as Maedhros and Maglor a little while ago, so Fingon seemed like the obvious choice when I needed an elfling for this one.)

'old bright songs of their childhood' - aka Maedhros and Maglor (Tiny Edition)

Inspired by a little moment in @thelordofgifs' the fairest stars where Maglor sings childhood songs to Maedhros and Maedhros believes himself to be back in Valinor for a moment.

@tolkiengenweek - another one for 'family' since their relationship is one of my favorite sibling relationships in Tolkien's legendarium 💗

Bonus sparkly 'Song' version that I wasn't really sure about under the cut:

Helcaraxe. Finrod and Turgon.

Finrod and Orodreth

@tolkiengenweek A day late, but have some tiny Finrod and Turgon for the friendship (and family) prompts.

I imagine Finrod was always dragging Turgon off on little adventures. Here they're building cities sandcastles and having fun on the beach :)
