THAT’S ON MY WATCHLIST GOD I NEED TO SEE IT ASAP!!!! i hope you enjoyed it, what were your thoughts? :0

^_^ Dear friend!!! 🧡

anything i feel like making at the moment i guess ?

usually i stick to the standard 3x3 grid simply bc i personally find it most aesthetically pleasing but i could definitely play around with that a bit more , make it different shapes or even more like a collage

are you indeed Rilla Blythe

did you somehow marry John Brooke

where is your music?

what do you like to write/create?

gosh i wish. imagine having anne shirley and gilbert blythe as your parents...

gosh i wish x2

my music is mostly in my head or in my hands because the stuff i arrange and play tends to be copyrighted :)) when vaughan-williams enters the public domain in 2029, it's over for y'all

Thank you!

3. A popular book that you love. I suppose The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien counts. ;))

4. A popular book you dislike. Code Name Verity by Elizabeth Wein.

5. A book you love that it seems like no one else has read. There are a number of rarer books I love, but I think at least one friend or another (!) has read the majority of the list. That said, I really enjoyed Song of Thunder by Mary Ray when I read it and don't know of anyone else currently who has read it.

6. A book with one character who stood out from the rest. It feels a bit like cheating to say the titular character from Piranesi by Susanna Clarke, but as narrator and protagonist, he does colour everything in the best possible way.

7. A book that left you feeling overwhelmed with happiness. I don't know about overwhelmed by happiness, but I do remember being pretty gleeful over the last sections of The Queen of Attolia by Megan Whalen Turner (though how much of that was self-satisfaction with figuring out how some threads were coming together, I don't recall now).

15. A book you love for its characters. Maybe Black as Night by Regina Doman? It's not that I dislike the plot, but I do think the cast of characters carry so much of what I enjoy about it.

16. A book you love for its themes. Love might be a bit strong, but The Tiger in the Smoke by Margery Allingham has some thematical elements that still stand out to me after several years' distance.

17. A book that’s well-written that you like. Peace Like a River by Leif Enger!

18. A book that’s well-written that you dislike. Looking through my notes, one would be The Sword and the Circle by Rosemary Sutcliff.

Okay, it took me a minute to realize this was in reference to my tag:

The Book is Always Better

I have neither read the books nor watched the Lockwood and Co series 😬 So sadly I have no opinion,

Hiya! Welcome to tumblr darling, feel free to say hi guys!!!

If you ever need anything, we're here for you

LOTR Soap Opera Sitcom (forgive the irreverence)

Camera angle from above, fuzzy picture, hear Sam saying, "Mr. Frodo, the flowers outside the window at Bag End must be blooming now -- you know, the one out of which Mr. Gandalf found me and I was afraid he'd turn me into something' unnatural!" Frodo, affectionately, "Dear Sam, we ARE rather transfigured by our experiences, aren't we?" Gandalf, looking out the window: "I AM contemplating some defenestration, with those Took and Brandybuck fools over there."

(Points understatedly with his six-foot-tall staff at the two hobbits bouncing on the bed where Frodo is resting, to the point that Frodo nearly falls off, and they bonk their heads together.) "Nothing better to do!" says Pippin, and Legolas looks up reservedly from his study of a book from the Minas Tirith archives. He says nothing: his look is eloquent. Gimli sympathizes, though he is only sharpening his axe and not thinking anything profound.

Aragorn walks in, "How is everyone?" "FINE," they groan. Camera fades out. Commercial break. Black. Then, Miranda Otto's gorgeous hair on the screen. The Houses of Healing. Faramir. Holding hands. "Shall we go over to the highest level to visit our friends?" she asks. "No," he says. "Let's go on a ride over the plains." She smiles because she loves the way he thinks. Continuum ad nauseum . . . $$$$ for the film company and commercial companies . . . To Be Continued Indefinitely in Prolonged Agony.

(end submission)

I'm definitely picturing this with a very low-budget, classic-sitcom-filming kind of look. Cheesy 90s aesthetic. If the TV companies must try making money out of Tolkien, they should have gone this route, right? At least then we'd get some fun out of it.
