Hello there mate!

1. How did you find out about Rings of Power? What was the one thing that drew you to the show?

I saw people complain about it on Tumblr! I think it was primarily a hate post about Elrond's description and his hair. I was super sceptical about the show, but what for some people was Harry Potter was for me Lord of the Rings. I love and adore magic, I loved Middle Earth. My first actual friend and I went nuts playing elves as teenagers. I was so happy back then and kind of just... Wanted that feeling back? I had some issues with some parts of season one, but overall loved it.

22. Were you familiar with Tolkien's writings before you watched RoP? What’s your favourite, or what might you like to read after seeing the show?

Yeah I was! Though I didn't really get into the LOTR books, I was a big fan of the Silmarillion stories. I read of Celebrimbor when I was a teenager and fell in love with him in a way - his character just intrigued me so much. And fun fact - I never imagined him as this... 20 year old looking ageless hunk of a muscle man so many haters do. I always saw him as soft?

My favourite story is probably the fall of Gondolin, though. There are more, but it's the one that really got me. I have many thoughts and opinions and feels on the story of Maeglin, and that ties into it a lot of corse.

27. Which person involved in the show would you most like to meet in person? What would you say to them?

Aaaaaa thank you!! 😭

I had so much fun writing those ones! Its really interesting to try to fit all the Whumptober prompts into 1 fic, also means i cant really plan the fic out until the promt list comes out which makes life a little difficult lol.

4. What work of yours has the most hits? I think it's one of my house md canon divergence to cope fics from my ok i need to revisit this i need to fix it era early on in undergrad

19. What’s one pairing you want to explore next year? i used to have a pretty diverse fandom catalogue (before i had a breakdown and orphaned it all and it stresses me out so much i keep meaning to get my mother to send ao3 a copyright takedown notice for some of them) but in this stage of adulthood the only thing i can get myself to write is camp rock fic because like if i don't theres nothing for me to read, and so on this line of thought i've had that tess/caitlyn 2016 fic in my docs for months now and i can't break it. i WILL. someday. but alas.

22. Which work has the most comments? i think one of my dan and phil ones?? probably immediate family bc that's the only one i didn't orphan.
