Aragorn: *to Gimli* Legolas loves you

Gimli: I am going to boil us some fine dwarf sausage

Legolas: and I will drink the water from it

Aragorn: wait was that a sex thing

Gimli: *holding a little pot* what

So I have this theory that Legolas and Gimli end up in the fellowship together and actually figure out pretty quickly that they like each other (cause, ya know, neither of them are exactly subtle™). But they also decide that they must keep it a deep secret, no one can know, or else both their families will be dishonored or something, and it's all very solum and all.

But the thing is, they are not great at keeping it a secret. They'll both claim to hate the other, and then mysteriously end up taking every opportunity to have some time alone together. Legolas announces that he's going double back to make sure nothing's following them, and suddenly Gimli saw some rock he's going to stay and take a look at. Subtle.

The rest of the fellowship, completely confused, comes to the conclusion that Gimli is trying to flirt with Legolas, who wants nothing to do with it. (Merry and Pippin*accidentally* walked in on the pair flirting, and have been sworn to dubious secrecy)

Honestly, as long as the artist handle the poc-coded characters their drawing correctly and respectfully, it doesn’t matter what ethnicity you are. I actually wrote about this in my ask about black!Fingon!

Unfortunately I don’t recall seeing any non white or mixed race (what exactly do you mean by mixed race) Legolas’ anytime soon, however, I will go on a search for him and see if I can add any on my queue!
