“[Sauron] perceived at once that Galadriel would be his chief adversary and obstacle, and he endeavoured therefore to placate her, bearing her scorn with outward patience and courtesy." (From "Unfinished Tales") Am I weird or is it just bc English isn't my first language that I find this hot af?

Finally finished the Hal/Anni mega-scene 😮‍💨 One more to go--time to make Annatar cry 😌 Dinner first tho, otherwise I'll forget to eat again 😅

Aaaaand a work in progress of Thuringwethil hugging Maironnatar in @sammybunny711.bsky.social ‘s vampire fic!! BESTIES 🥺😭

I'm fine, I'm fine, it's all good— I HAVE BEEN BLESSED ONCE AGAIN WITH @thatsouthernanthem.bsky.social 'S BEAUTIFUL WORK IT IS A HAPPY DAY INDEED 😍

“The world is indeed full of peril, and in it there are many dark places; but still there is much that is fair, and though in all lands love is now mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater.” ― Haldir, to Merry, in The Fellowship of the Ring by J.R.R. Tolkien

Annatar has decided he's besties with Disa in the WMN universe, and I'm both intrigued and uncertain 🤣

The manager:

Dear Manager, This week I: 1. Gave three rings to the Elven-kings under the sky, 2. Gave seven rings to the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone, 3. Gave nine rings to Mortal Men, doomed to die, 4. Gave one to the Dark Lord on his dark throne, 5. OK, I'll admit that was probably a bad idea.

Thuringwethil about Morgoth at some point:

Don't forget to vote for Middle Earth's prettiest princess and his bow!

Me: Hmm, how should I describe the flavor of this peppermint tea? 🤔 Me: Minty 👌

Eärien☀️ Made with colored pencils✍️🏻 #myart #portrait

Still absolutely obsessed with this world and story 🖤 So so wonderful!! 🤧
