Come Back To Me And Fill My House With Joy

Summary: There are hundreds of miles between Beleriand and Aman. Finarfin had never thought about it much. But since the Flight of the Noldor the distance haunts him. Five children he had with Eärwen. And every single one of them went over the sea. Thousands of years pass on Arda and Finarfin has to find his own way of moving forward. And of remembering. So that when his children return, they can return to a changed and advanced Tirion. And with them happiness may also return. - This a story about Finarfin's grief and happiness. Remembering each of his children Finrod, Orodreth, Angrod, Aegnor and Galadriel we get to know Finarfin intimately.

@tolkienrsb

you hope more people will come to appreciate ___ (a ship, a trope, an episode, etc)

your favorite type of fandom event (gift exchange, ship week, secret santa, prompt meme, etc)

Just curious to know more about you. Though for the second one I have an inkling :)

OOOOH friend...Let me think for a hot second...

I hope more people will come to appreciate...FireBird? WLW? No, in general, I hope more people will learn to appreciate. Everything. Appreciate the people who make art/fics for what they enjoy. Appreciate the people that there are so many takes on the same subject. Appreciate ships they don't ship and tropes they don't like. End the senseless hate and the honestly ridiculous feeling of superiority some people seem to actively cultivate.

My favourite type of fandom event? Oh, I'm doing so many of them, but I'd have to say exchanges and bangs. Everything that combines art and fic, because I just love what amazing things can come from a good collaboration. (On that subject, today is the last day to sign up for Scribbles and Drabbles which is my favourite fan event of the year -> hop on over to @fall-for-tolkien and sign up as an author!!!)

- If you could ask Adar about one part of his life, what would the question be?

- Do you think Dwarves also got corrupted by Morgoth? (IMO Tolkien is not very clear about this)

Ah! Thank you! That's very kind of you!

If you could ask Adar about one part of his life, what would the question be?

I think I would ask him to tell me about the time he was the most content. A lot of his life has to have been full of darkness and fair amount of pain. I would like to know when and where he found little pockets of joy. More stories like his trip down the Sirion, please.❤️

Do you think Dwarves also got corrupted by Morgoth? (IMO Tolkien is not very clear about this)

This is a very good question! I had to deliberate a bit, but I think dwarves are slow to corrupt. After all, the dwarven Rings of Power didn't really cause their rulers to fall. So, my guess is that, in any physical/mental sense (i.e. thralldom), no. But! I think that he did manage to convince some dwarves of lies (as was his standard modus operandi with the elves and men). This might explain the relative distance of some dwarves from the narrative and the implication that some dwarves did fight for Sauron at the end of the Second Age (paraphrased: folk of all kindred except elves fought on both sides of the battle). In summary: Go not to Nienna for lore questions, for she shall say both no and yes.

Thank youo for the ask 💜

Indis Second High King of the Noldor and Nerdanel Her Wise Advisor

Summary: Indis The Fair and Nerdanel The Wise they were called. When Nerdanel stayed with Indis after their husbands had left for Formenos, she got to know much more of Indis than just her beauty and golden hair. Likewise, Indis found more than just wisdom in Nerdanel. Years after the Flight of the Noldor they would be better known as Indis The Second High King of the Noldor and Nerdanel Her Wise Advisor. To each other however they were closest confidantes and fervent lovers. - Watch two passionate women come together and all the rippling effects this has. AU where Indis becomes the Second King of the Noldor.
