Oh my gods oh my gods!!!
I was inspired by Davos from Game of Thrones talking about Shireen and I thought it fit for Aulè yelling at Melkor about Mairon/Sauron and about how Melkor "killed" Mairon and manipulated and killed his beloved Maiar to create Sauron.
It may go something like this!:
Aulè: "You killed Mairon!"
Melkor: "I did no such thing-"
Aulè: "I loved that boy... like he was my own... he was good, he was kind, and YOU KILLED HIM!"
. . .
Aulè mourned for Mairon the way a parent mourned for their child...

Can you imagine the irrepressible delight that Aulë had when Legolas rocked up to the Undying Lands with a Dwarf.

Apparently there’s a bit in Morgoth’s Ring that says “Aulë named Fëanor the greatest of the Eldar” and excuse me a moment
You’re telling me that the whole “Greatest of the Eldar” thing….was SPECIFICALLY Aulë?!
Because if so, this vala is just….so normal about this elf. Never mind “lover of Fëanor” and the general “leave him alone guys, oh my god” at the darkening. Now we also have this.
Other Valar: You can’t just name one elf “greatest of the Eldar” because he happens to be good at your favourite skill! What about hunting, weaving, singing, poetry? Do none of our skills count??
Aulë: Well yes, good point. But have you considered….that he is MY special boy, therefore he is the greatest?
Other Valar: …..
Aulë: I thought not.

Aule the Smith and Yavanna giver of Fruits
Tumblr media
Bumblebee; bumblebees represent the importance of community and connection. Orchids; Orchids symbolize fertility, love, luxury, beauty, and strength. Gladiolus; Gladiolus symbolizes strength, faithfulness, and reason to remember Marigolds; Marigolds symbolize divinity, creativity, purity, divinity, as well as the connection between life and death. Jasmin flower; Jasmin flowers represent strength and come from the Persian word "Yasmin" which means "gift from god". Field rose; The field rose symbolises resilience, and passion.
Yavanna´s hair changes throughout the season; in Spring she has spring flowers and small new leaves and it´s mostly flat/straight, Summer she has big volumes of round hair filled with big leaves and all kinds of big summer flowers, Autumn she has wavy silhouette with red and orange leaves falling apart, and at Winter she has bare branches with some pines in between.
Aule makes her flower jewelry and she either braids him flower crowns or just places some in his hair.

Yo I've got another for my by now mixed Tolkien survey series:
(yes, I over-simplified stuff, and had to exclude Tulkas, Melkor & Mandos for lack of answer-options, just comment if you'd have picked them)

Something about Bilbo and Thorin’s love that gets me is…it just wasn’t supposed to happen. Dwarves weren’t supposed to exist. Hobbits are relatives of Men; they were always part of Ilúvatar’s plan and were among his children. But Aulë secretly created the Dwarves when he wasn’t supposed to, and Ilúvatar gave them life knowing they would always be different from his own children and those races may never get along. This is why I disagree with the common notion that Bilbo and Thorin were “soulmates”; in a world governed by fate, the connection between them - these two polar opposites, children of two different entities - just…happened. By accident.

I like to hc that, much like us (the fandom), the Valar also have their blorbos and special little guys.
Manwë is (canonically) besties with the Vanyar, Ulmo with the Teleri, Aulë with the Noldor, plus of course his Dwarves. Varda is the fan favorite of all Elves and loves them (she got so excited about them in Lost Tales, it was so cute).
Oromë brought the Mearas as a gift and got super excited that an entire kingdom of horse girls was formed. He loves the Rohirrim and sometimes disguises himself as one of them to sneak into their hunting parties. Vána is in on it too.
Yavanna and Irmo absolutely adore Hobbits and blessed them with a great love for quiet countrysides and the charming ability to just enjoy life and its good things. Irmo also visited them in disguise and brought pipeweed to make friends. Aulë and Yavanna ship Bagginshield.
Nienna, as usual, loves everyone, but has a special soft spot for Orcs because they need someone on their side. She probably adopted them already and forced Námo to go along with it and let her have them whether he wanted to or not.

Melkor goes wild
Melkor: I committed all 7 deadly sins in 30 minutes. Gothmog: Wow, I've gotta hear this. Melkor: I was angry and envious of Aule so I lazily seduced his Maia and ate all his groceries and didn't share. Gothmog: You forgot pride. Melkor: No, I'm pretty proud of this.

(there's a lot! please mention your faves if they aren't here)
btw an honorable mention goes to Nerdanel <3 (she's technically more of a sculptor but it's impossible not to include her in some way)
