“Very bright was the sword of Narsil when it was made whole again; the light of the sun shone redly in it, and the light of the moon shone cold. And so Aragorn gave it a new name and called it Andúril, Flame of the West.”

Finished this cross stitch and it is definitely my favourite of all the ones I’ve ever made. The pattern I purchased online from the wonderful Helena, a Ukrainian pattern designer (link leads to their shop). Featuring part of the Riddle of Strider and (what I believe are) mallos flowers.

— 

Image description: the first image is of a cross stitch done on black cloth. Centered in the middle is Narsil, the sword that was broken from Lord of the Rings. On either side of it are two golden/orange flowers with green leaves and the quote “Renewed shall be blade that was broken, the crownless again shall be king” rendered in orange. The second image is a close-up of the cross stitch showing the detail of the flowers and leaves.

Baby formula should be free.

Notice how forced-birthers and pro-lifers want parents to suffer with the costs of feeding their children.

Conservatives would only want to punish the parents and judge them.

The heartlessness for children is disgusting.

Draco HATES it. 😤

Hermione finally caved in and let Lavender use some sleek-easy potion and some extra strong hold spells on her hair.

Naturally, Draco absolutely HATES it since he secretly loves her wild curls.

Atheists cannot write a good deconstruction of Christianity because every time they introduce a stand-in character for “God” and make him evil, they are then later forced to conclude that this character is not actually a divinity and is only posing as a god, at which point all Theists nod their heads and say “yes, indeed, it is certainly bad to worship a being who is evil and also not actually God. What a wise Aesop about mere creatures playing God.”

"Zuko would take a lightning for anyone–"

But it was Katara that he chose to invite.

"Zuko would take a lightning for anyone–"

But Azula knew to aim at Katara.

"Zuko would take a lightning for anyone–"

But the scene was romamtically coded.

"Zuko would take a lightning for anyone–"

But Katara needed to get to heal him.

"Zuko would take a lightning for anyone–"

But it was Katara who was with him in season finales.

"Zuko would take a lightning for anyone–"

But he needed to choose Katara over Azula.

"Zuko would take a lightning for anyone–"

But Shu needed to survive in this life.

"Zuko would take a lightning for anyone–"

Enemies to lovers "who did this to you?" about scars? Great, of course. However, I raise you this: "I did this to you."

When you discover a cryptid you never heard of and instantly fall in love with it

The squonk has immediately become a massive favorite of mine now, right after the mothman and Jersey devil 🥺

#the first time i heard about him it was mentioned that generally women love him immediately #pretty sure the analytics on this post would bear that out #m: cryptozoology #mythology

obsessed with characters being saved against their will. being knocked unconscious and carried away from a danger they won't stop trying to fight. being shoved through a portal somewhere far away and safe right before it closes. trying to self-sacrifice only to have the exact person they're trying to save swap their places at the last second. getting the only cure to the disease or curse bc the person administering it loves them too much to give it to anyone else, including themselves. being thrown to safety right as they had accepted dying. someone else they thought had gotten to safety running back to drag them out of danger. it's so fucking tasty

Posting this for the people who think that Tolkien's world-building was something complete and entire and finished before he started to write.

You always learn and discover your story and your world as you write. Sometimes you are just the first reader.
