I love going viral on tumblr.com. It’s like if you stood in a field and said some of the stupidest shit a human being is capable of and then like fifty thousand crows attacked you

1 Week to go

As @lathalea reminded us on all the servers, Artist sign-ups are open until May 5th!

🥲But I have no ideas...

There is a suggestion sheet to inspire you!

😞 But what if my art is not good enough?

Nonsense! As long as you abide by the rules (here and here), all ideas are welcome ideas as far as I can tell. (the mods are really nice)

😕 But I am a little scared...

Aren't we all? You have an idea, a box of pencils, and a desire to see it done? Then join us!

Let's go! Peruse this link, and sign up now!

(And if the jitters get too big, reach out to friends! We're all here to support you!)

Lots of love.

NOT a Mod, just a fan <3

SILMARILLION HEADCANON

So, I had this headcanon in mind since a while.

We know that after the War of Wrath and the drowning of Beleriand in 587 F.A., there nothing left of Beleriand excepted Tol-Fuin (what is left of the mounys in the south-west of Dorthonion), now know as Tol-Fuin, and Himring, now known as Tol-Himring (south Lothlann in the march of Maedhros). The two becoming islands next to each other o, the Belegaer Ocean.

What if Maedhros were still alive and still living in Himring?

At the end of the War of Wrath when Eonwë had retrieved the Silmarils, Maedhros, forced by the oath, try to take them back. However, with all the massacres and other horrors he took part in, he has become, like Melkor, unworthy of the jewels that burn deeply his remaining hand the moment he takes them. But instead of throwing himself with one of the Silmarils in the depths of the earth, he just throw the jewel in. For his part, Maglor, who was with him all along did likewise but in the Ocean, burning his hand in the process, like his brother.

After that, Maedhros exiled himself away from the elven kind and his family, unable to returning in Aman (the oath isn’t sulfilled so he can’t go back home, and he can’t confront thse whose lives he has ruined with his family). Unwiling to live among the elves in Middle Earth and other intelligent creatures, he went in exile in Himring, his fortress, renamed Tol-Himring. Far from others.

I like the idea of Maedhros living completely alone on his island with some animals as the only company he accept, slowly fading away but refusing to die (he doesn’t deserve this luxury in his mind).

Sign-ups for the Tolkien Reverse Summer Bang 2024 are now open!

If you’re new here, TRSB  is a Tolkien-fandom-wide event celebrating the talent of our fanwork creators. Participating artists create a piece of art to be claimed by a signed up author. Authors will then write a 5k word fic based on the art they chose.

All sign-up forms are available here!

As well as signing up as an author and/or artist, you can sign up as a beta, cheerleader, pinch hitter, or treat maker.

Explanations of what all of these mean can be found in the relevant section of our FAQ.  Sign-ups for these roles will remain open for the duration of the event and will get you access to the gallery. However, you must be signed up as an author to claim.

Want to suggest a prompt to our artists? Our suggestions form will be open until May 14th.

Want to see what others have already suggested and get hyped with us? Check out our handy spreadsheet.

Questions? Visit our website, which has our FAQ and timeline all set out. 

Please be sure to familiarise yourself with the rules before signing up :) 

The event is open to all characters, genres and ratings, and all canons that fall under the Tolkien fandom umbrella. This includes movieverse (i.e. the LOTR and Hobbit trilogies), lesser known works by Tolkien (such as The Father Christmas Letters), and/or other works with a clear link to his life or creative output (for example, Tolkien's translations and academic texts, the 2019 Tolkien biopic, fan-made films like Born of Hope, and game canons such as The Lord of the Rings Online). Crossovers between two or more Tolkien canons are permitted.

We hope you're as excited as we are! We can't wait to see what you make.

imagine: you are chilling in front you your house getting high. along comes an old family friend who you last saw when you were six, you are now in your 50s. after a brief convo where he is kind of a dick to you, he’s like damn you’ve changed :/. and your like yeah bestie it’s been five decades why the fuck are you here. he leaves. later that night a shit ton of people show up and trash your house. just throw and absolute rager. halfway through the family friend from earlier shows up. he announces in full earshot of everyone that he wants you to come with him to rob a bank. you of course say wtf??? one of the people who broke into your house calls you a pussy. another person shoves you a contract which declares if you get shot robbing the bank they will not pay for your funeral. you pass out. when you wake up you find the contract on your table and your house almost completely back to normal. you stare at the contract for a moment and decide, fuck it this is just as a good a midlife crisis than anything.

this is what happened to bilbo baggins
