001 for lotr, 002 for Legolas/Gimli (seeing you mention lotr stuff is making me really nostalgic for it lmao)
hell yeah hell yeah hell yeah
001 | Send me a fandom and I will tell you my:
Favorite character: god there are so many characters in this series uh. definitely eowyn is one of them! i’m pretty sure legolas was my favorite when i read the books as a kid and yeah i do still love him
Least Favorite character: uh. fuck dude. i guess grima’s pretty creepy? maybe him?
5 Favorite ships (canon or non-canon): legolas/gimli, sam/frodo, jesus christ five ships is so many i never care about that many ships, OH YEAH mauve and i came up with eowyn/tauriel recently and i FIRMLY believe that that is a perfect ship, aragorn/arwen is pretty good for a het ship
Character I find most attractive: eowyn. also galadriel
Character I would marry: eowyn
Character I would be best friends with: probably sam lmao
a random thought: the extended editions of the movies honestly are not worth it
An unpopular opinion: idk if this is unpopular but based on the dumb background ships i’ve been seeing on ao3 it might be. eowyn is a lesbian!!!!! eowyn is a butch dyke you idiots!!!!!!!!
My Canon OTP: i mean i GUESS aragorn/arwen?
My Non-canon OTP: legolas/gimli
Most Badass Character: eowyn!!!! the answer to most of these questions is eowyn
Most Epic Villain: saruman probably? sauron’s just kind of. a big eye
Pairing I am not a fan of: i’ve never been able to get into thorin/bilbo, i don’t think there’s anything wrong with it, it’s just. you know. martin freem*n. ugh
Character I feel the writers screwed up (in one way or another): tauriel lmao. i know that’s the hobbit and not technically lotr but it’s all connected so. if we’re strictly going by lotr i think tolkien was an old dumb idiot who screwed up by making eowyn be with men
Favourite Friendship: merry and eowyn are really cute
Character I most identify with: sam
Character I wish I could be: i don’t wanna be any of these fucking people they all have really difficult and sad lives
002 | Send me a ship and I will tell you:
When I started shipping them: i don’t really know? i only started actively searching out content recently bc i rewatched the movies and it Awakened Things In Me, but i read the books when i was really young and saw the movies a few years later and have occasionally had glimpses of the fandom and i don’t think there was like a specific moment when i was like “oh they’d be good together”, it just slowly progressed from not really being aware of the ship because i was seven to being completely convinced that they’re married
My thoughts: i just said this but yeah they’re married. also two towers is the flirtiest movie (i haven’t read the books since i was like seven or eight years old but i assume the same applies). all of their bickering in two towers is like… god. get a room
What makes me happy about them: they’re just so important to each other!! they’re the perfect shining example of enemies-to-friends-to-lovers! also they canonically sail to the undying lands together. i. tolkien. my guy. my dude. did you write that and think it was heterosexual????? legolas just disregarding all rules and traditions and bringing his dwarf bf to valinor because he couldn’t stand to be without him???????? it is not heterosexual
What makes me sad about them: i mean not much lmao they got an extremely happy ending in canon
Things done in fanfic that annoys me: this is a wider problem than just this ship but a thing that always really really takes me out of a fic and ruins it for me is out-of-character out-of-place dirty talk. please just……. listen please just write a normal sex scene. i promise you don’t need legolas to say cock a bunch of times. please be normal for a second
Things I look for in fanfic: hair braiding trope
My wishlist: again i don’t understand this question but in terms of fan content what i really love, for this as for any ship, is mutual pining
Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: THEY CANONICALLY SAIL TO THE UNDYING LANDS TOGETHER, THIS IS NOT UP FOR DISCUSSION
My happily ever after for them: i mean tolkien got it in one basically? could’ve done with more canon kissing and weddings and stuff but i don’t think you get much more happily ever after than what already happens to them in canon

Break Up Ave., I have my heart but other things too
It’s amazing what you find while cleaning your room. Like, oh I don’t know, things from your exes.
So I originally had a different idea of what I wanted to do about this. My first thought was to actually give their shit back and talk about why we broke up in the first place. But they like to remind me all the time that we dated and why we broke up. They’re awful.
But I wanted to talk about this in general because I know people can relate or they need to hear this. For myself and everyone I’ll sound like a Taylor Swift song.
From 14 exes I have a rubix cube, a Batman rubber bracelet, 10 notes, a Yu-Gi-Oh card, a school ID, a red flannel, a LOTR book (no I never read it), some weird camera thing, a paper weight, vans key chain, two shirts,ticket stubs, two pictures, a stuffed otter, and a teddy bear.
The first guy I ever dated was in the 5th grade and he gave me the rubix cube and one of the pictures. It was your typical elementary school relationship but I remember how blushy I got around him. Also that I gave him my home phone number and that he actually did call me, which made 10 year old me really happy, and we had a pretty awkward conversation as were both shy kids. It’s been seven years since I’ve last seen him so I can’t say he’s an awful person or anything (sadly).
 I don’t have anything from the next three guys I dated after him but I’ll save those for a different story. 
From this particular ex I have three notes, Roosevelt the teddy bear, a scar on my knee, and repressed 8th grade memories when it comes to him. We had band together but that’s not how this all started. It started at lunch because my friend brought you to the table and we started talking then we ended up dating, I know I said you weren’t but I think you were a rebound. 
Honestly, we should’ve talked more before we started dating because we spent most of our time arguing. And why he thought it was good idea to catch himself on me, a tiny person, when someone pushed him is beyond me. All it resulted in was my jeans being ripped and a whole layer of skin coming off my knee that got infected and I had to clean everyday, twice a day for three weeks and was left with a scar. 
Our relationship in one word was awful. Sure, he’s a better guy now but his first couple relationships were bad. I’m not saying he did awful shit, cause he didn’t, he just didn’t know how to be a good boyfriend.
And no, we don’t get along to this day.
The boy who shared the same initials as me was honestly one of the nicest guys I’ve ever dated. When I said I liked his Batman bracelet because he’s my favorite hero he took it right off and gave it to me. I also have three notes from you, two of them saying why you liked me so much and one was an apology. 
I don’t hate him because he liked my friend while we dated. Honestly, I don’t hate him at all. While we did break up because I was nice person who wanted my friend happy so I wanted them together I never hated him. But we were also two different people that could’ve worked but we never tried but it’s okay because we turned into pretty decent people. Sadly. I don’t have anything bad to say about him. And yeah, we’re still friends.
Okay, okay, yes, this next guy was right about us. I did date him mostly out of peer pressure. All of our friends said we should date and my best friend at the time talked me into it. But it was weird and awkward and I ignore his text so I didn’t have to see him. I found his flannel so yeah, he can gave it back now and stop asking.
Summer lovin’ was meant more for Danny and Sandy, not for me and this guy. I’m not saying anything bad happened in this relationship because it was alright. I only have three notes we passed back and forth in Drivers Ed because I think I threw the rest away. Or maybe he did. But what I remember clearly from this relationship is when I said, “We should break up.” he said no. Yeah, that wasn’t happening. But now he’s dating one of my friends and they deserve each other.
I don’t mean that in a bitchy way like they’re both assholes but in they’re both little Hufflepuffs and complete each other and work so well together. Honestly, they’re pretty adorable together.
I wanted to go in order of exes, I honestly did, but I wanted these two next to each other.These are the relationships that hurt the most and I still think about them.
It’s my 7th grade year and we have gym together. One day my friend talks to him and so I start talking to him. One week later we start dating. Three weeks later we break up but quickly get back together the next day. One month later I find out I’m not the only girl but I’m a dumbass and stay with him.
In the course of a year we break up five or six times and he cheats on me I don’t even know how many times. For five months we’re fine then out of nowhere he ignores me for three days straight and when he finally talks to me he says he’s been talking to another girl for a couple weeks and that they’re now dating. He tries to apologize to me but I tell him don’t because I don’t want to hear anything from him ever again. When I got home that day the Yu-Gi-Oh card I cut up after an argument in front of him ,which he literally ignored me for for 10 minutes, but put back together, I cut it up again. 
He left me with really bad trust issues with my next couple exes. I was never able to fully trust them because he left me with this constant doubt that they didn’t really give a shit about me. He left me completely heartbroken.
I know I sound dramatic but I was 12-14 during this and I was a dumb girl who thought some dude actually cared but turns out he didn’t.
Before I started high school I talked to him after six months, I asked him why he treated me like such shit and his answer? “I don’t know really.” But all I could think about was when he once said I didn’t put out and maybe I already knew the answer. But maybe I didn’t either.
This last relationship, the most recent, I’ll be honest and say it still hurts. It’s been almost two months since we’ve been broken up and it still hurts.
We started dating in February after a week of talking. We dated for almost eight months and honestly they were so amazing. But all good things must come to an end.
He was the first person to ever take me on a date which was seeing the live action remake of Beauty & the Beast. In return we saw Power Rangers. Our last date was a movie, A mutual agreement on It. He was also the first person to take me to the aquarium without my family there. 
He was the first person I ever trusted to come with me to therapy. Granted, he couldn’t come into the room with me so he had to stay in the waiting room but still. 
He was the first person I ever truly saw a future with and that I wanted one with. After being introduced to his family my first thought was, “Wow, this is one day going to be my family, too.” When I told him this later he smiled so big.But missing a family that was never really yours hurts.
I remember clearly the night he held my face in his hands and said that he never felt this way about anyone and that he would never hurt me. But he did.
We broke up because of school and family. But it really wasn’t because of school and family. So when I threw his bag of shirts at him I had everyone reason to and he should’ve told me he went on a date. He should’ve told me that he didn’t really want to get back together. He should’ve been honest.
But he can go ahead and say he never did any of this shit again. I don’t care anymore.
But I’ll be honest, during the relationship he was an amazing guy. I’m not saying this to defend him or anything. I’m saying this because it was the after part that sucked. 
It also sucked that one day when I was wearing an infinity ring he took it off and started playing with it I grabbed it and put it on his pinky finger, the only finger that it fit, and said, “It’s a pre promise ring, baby, because I swear I’m going to get you a real one.”
It sucked that a couple days later we broke up.
I’m not sure if I was foolish or hopeful or both for thinking we were actually going to get back together. I’m not sure what I am for still loving him. Probably human. 
And I’m sorry too.
But tomorrows Thanksgiving so let me say my thanks. Thank you, guys, for breaking my heart. I mean it. If it wasn’t for them maybe I wouldn’t be who I am today and maybe they learned something for us. Or maybe I would’ve ended up how I am regardless and they didn’t learn jack shit.
But still, thank you boys. Now most of you can fuck yourselves.
