Celeborn: Centennial check up. Have you gone crazy yet?

Elrond: You think I haven't?

Celeborn: I had a hope.

I use this celebrimbor concept in my gil-galad fic but Celebrimbor isn’t the mc so it’s not expanded upon, but also, I wanna talk about it.

So, as a concept; Celebrimbor makes fake plants.

It’s mostly a crack headcanon because Celebrimbor is an Inventor (*cough* mad scientist *cough*) and Inventors always make practical stuff that looks normal. Like, Celebrimbor opens the inside of a fake plant in front of Galadriel (who didn’t notice the fake plant was so…mechanical), and now Galadriel doesn’t trust any of the fake plants in Eregion. Are they all decorative? Do they all have secret compartments? Who knows! (Celebrimbor refuses to tell her which are decorative-fake and which are hidden-knife-fake)

It escalates to the point where Gil-Galad gets gifted a Fake Plant and after tugging on a rubber leaf (per the instruction manual), the whole pot opens to reveal an ornate set of well-made daggers.

Elrond also gets gifts inside Fake Plants. Narvi, too, who thinks it’s hilarious.

At one point, Celebrimbor discovers a way to make the fake plant leaves sway in the wind without the stiffness of rubber, and a new type of silicone that feels leafy to the touch if prepared properly. Galadriel’s paranoia grows as the Fake Plants get more realistic.

Love the idea of Celebrimbor and the classic “Inventor Makes Hidden Compartment Inside Harmless Things” trope. I think it’s just the right amount of harmless, accidentally threatening, and Mad Scientist to fit Celebrimbor’s character.

Elrond: Someone stabbed me and ruined my favorite jacket.

Galadriel: Someone stabbed you?!

Elrond: Yes, but let's focus on the bigger issue. My jacket!

Elrond: I think I might have just killed Gil-Galad...

Galadriel: What? Oh, good for you I guess.

Elrond: You're not mad?

Galadriel: Gil-Galad is fine, Elrond. This is the tenth time you've almost killed him.

Elrond: Um... It is?

Elrond: You're depressing to be around.

Galadriel: I am not!

Celeborn: When was the last time you felt such joy that you forgot how shitty the world was?

Galadriel:

Elrond: Addendum. Celeborn is also depressing to be around.

Celeborn: It's not depressing if you're actually happy!

Celegorm: *Going absolutely feral*

Elf: You shouldn't have your kid on a leash! It's so wrong!

Maedhros: Don't get close to him. He bites.

Elf: He's a kid! It doesn't- OW!

Maedhros: I tried to warn you. And he's not my kid, that's my brother.

Maedhros: Someone asked how to tell Elrond and Elros apart. It's quite simple when you know what to look for.

Maglor: Elros is the crazed raccoon that infests Himring. His only goal in life is property damage. He is some sort of divine pest or curse for wrong doings on a cosmic level that I can only guess at.

Maedhros: And Elrond has dark hair and dimples when he smiles.
