Durin IV, telling his children an old story about himself and Elrond: So one day, an assassin led Elrond, bound in chains, into the orcs' fortress to claim his reward. Gerda: What?!? Durin: They gave the assassin bags and bags of gold as their general ordered Elrond down to the notorious Dungeon of Tortures. Gamli: What kind of dirty, no-good scum would turn Uncle Elrond in for money?!? Durin, grinning: I would.

Headcanon that dwarf children braid their parent’s hair and add specific beads in their hair. They’ve beaded Elrond’s hair before with parent braids, but of course no one tells him what they mean. 

It takes Disa and Durin to tell him months later that the children have adopted him as their parent, and will continue to braid his hair until they get older.

A personal headcanon/AU of mine that hopefully I'll one day adapt is that Elrond is Gamli and Gerda's godparent. And when something happens to Disa and Durin he has to fight dwarves to get them. He doesn't isolate them from their people either, he makes sure they visit the mountain often and relocates to Eregion permanently to ensure that happens.

I don't know if Disa and Durin are dead in this AU, but Elrond makes sure he cares for their children until they either come back or until they're old enough to be on their own.

Oh this is awesome I love this! Elrond absolutely would do this, protect them, fight for them because their parents mean so much to him (also I need the conversation where he is told he's godparent IM SOBBING) And if Durin and Disa are gone (Im in so much denial ahahaha) Elrond would do everything he could to care for their children and absolutely keep them linked to their kin. op this is wonderful thank you <3

Headcanon that Elves generally keep to themselves not through the aloofness brought about because of their immortality but because they are fucking helpless when it comes to mortal children.

Any mortal children. Man, Hobbit, Dwarf, any kid. Elflings are beloved for a reason but Elflings are still Elves at heart and do not possess the frankly worrying amounts of curiosity and determination that mortal children have and which gives them a certain aura of adorable that the Eldar cannot resist.

I know Elrond took Aragorn in because they took his mother in but I cannot help but think he also saw a tiny human and it clicked in his (admittedly half-Elven but it still counts) brain that this is an adorable baby and he needs doting on.

#lotr #lotr headcanons #elves #look maybe this came about because I'm reading a really good fic on Ao3 #where Thranduil is his usual bitchy self until the Bardlings set their sights on him #and he's done for #I just like the idea of these immortal idiots going so utterly soft for little babies and adorable kids #like Elrond is doomed in Rings of Power once he properly meets Gerda and Gamli #smol dwarvish kids will steal his heart away #the fic is called My Heart is an Empty Vessel if you're interested #by likethenight #its really fucking good #though its so fluffy my internal angst writer is waiting for the other shoe to drop #it does not trust the domesticity #or Thranduil being happy and spoiling Tilda with presents #Tilda just making friends with the whole Woodland Realm as well #they were helpless against the adorableness #Elves react to mortal kids like we do with particularly adorable puppies #lots of handflapping #and noises that are MOST DEFINITELY NOT highly undignified squeeing

Ben Bir Eylül Sen Haziran

Bir eylüldü baslayan içimde

Agaçlar dökmüstü yapraklarini

Çimenler sararmisti

Rengi solmustu tüm çiçeklerin

Gökyüzünü kara bulutlar sarmisti

Katar katar gidiyordu kuslar uzaklara

Deli deli esiyordu rüzgar

Dagilmisti yazdan kalan ne varsa

Yasanmamis bir mevsim gibiydi bahar

Neydi o bir zamanlar

Sevmisligim, sevilmisligim

O heyheyler, o delismenlikler neydi

Ne bu kadere boyun egmisligim

Ne bu acidan korlasan yürek

Ne bu kurumus nehir; gözyasim

Önümdeki dizboyu karanliklar da ne

Ne bu ardimdaki kül yigini; elli yasim

Beni kötü yakaladin haziran

Gamli, yikik eylül sonuma

Bir ilkyaz tazeligi getirdin

Masmavi gögünle

Cana can katan günesinle

Piril piril engin denizinle girdin içime

Çiçekler açti dokundugun

Çimler büyüdü yürüdügün

Ve güller katmer katmer oldu güldügün yerde

Basimda senin kuslarin kanat çirpiyor simdi

Oldurdugun yemislerin agirligindan

Dallarim yere degiyor

Günesi batmadan saçlarinin

Bir dolunay doguyor bakislarindan

Gün boyu senden bir meltem esiyor yanan alnima

Uykusuz gecelerim seninle apaydinlik

Basim dönüyor, off basim dönüyor yasamaktan

Ölebilirim artik

Ölme diyorsan; gitme kal öyleyse

Saril simsiki, tenim ol, beni birakma

Baksana; parmak uçlarim ates

Lavlar fiskiriyor gözbebeklerimden

Hadi gel, tut ellerimi, benimle yan

Benimle meydan oku her çaresizlige

Benimle uyu, benimle uyan

Birlikte varalim onüçüncü aylara

Ben bir eylül, sen haziran.

The first song of spring (pt. 1)

Elrond x reader

I don’t know how good this is... and I have no idea when part 2 will come out, sorry!

*****

Imagine being an Elf that escaped from Lindon as a youth after an accident. After more than a century wandering alone from one place to another, you met two Dwarves who had kidnapped baby prince Gamli; you took the child and were able to bring him back to his family in Khazad-Dum. Grateful and relieved, Durin and Disa offered to reward you, and you asked to be allowed to remain in the kingdom, which was granted. 

For fifteen years you lived among the Dwarves, working as an handmaid to the princess; you and Disa became close as sisters and you were also friends with her husband and children, even though most of the other Dwarves ignored you or treated you with open contempt, because of your race, including the King himself. In your heart, while you love Disa and her family and appreciate them letting you stay, you are deeply unhappy with that solitary life, with so few friends and the rest of the kingdom keeping you at a distance; most of all, you miss your father terribly, but you know you will never be able to go home. 

Elrond meets you when he visits Durin for the first time in twenty years; you are the first subject the Dwarf prince broaches after making peace with his friend.

"I don't think it is healthy for her to stay here. There will always be a place for her as long as we live, and our children, but she's so alone, cut off from her people and living among those who despise her."

"Why is she living with you, rather than among her own kind?" Elrond asks, intrigued; relations among Elves and Dwarves are tenuous at best, excluding him and his friend, and the idea of one of his people choosing to live in Khazad-Dum is surprising.

"We have no idea; she never told us, but I do believe she is running from something" Disa says "Will you please talk to her? Maybe you will convince her to go live among her people, or at least in a place where she is better appreciated."

In his heart, Elrond doubts the mysterious Elf will listen to him just because they belong to the same race, since they have never met each other before and he cannot have any influence on her. Nonetheless, he accepts.

*****

You are in the princess's quarters, preparing the clothes and the jewels she will wear for tonight's banquet, when you see her enter... and she's not alone.

"This is Elrond, Durin's dearest friend; he spoke so much about him, remember? He was so eager to meet you, why don't you take a walk?"

You love Disa as the sister you never had, but at the moment you wish she would shut up, and leave you alone. You feared something like this would happen ever since Durin told you about his Elvish friend (who he still loved dearly, even though he was hurt over how long had passed since he visited) and now he is here, and you can't simply ignore him, since he is a friend and a guest of the prince.

The young Elf bows to you, speaking softly in Elvish as he tells you he is glad to make your acquaintance. He is handsome, you must admit, with a strong and graceful figure and warm, deep brown eyes.

"If you are not too busy with your duties, would you like to take a walk? I would be curious to know what it is like for an Elf to live in a Dwarven kingdom."

Obviously you can't say no, not with the smile, kind and happy and implacable, that Disa is offering you from behind Elrond, fully knowing you have no pressing duties for the rest of the day.

"Of course; I would love to." you answer, mustering a little bit of entusiasm so as not to offend him, and you take the arm he is offering you.

Despite a bit of awkwardness, the walk is pleasant, and Elrond's company even more so. He tells you about his life, his duties as the King's Herald and, since both Durin and Disa trust you, the project that brought him to Khazad-Dum. In turn, he asks about your life, whether you enjoy living among Dwarves and your tastes in food, music and other things.

It is, you admit, a very pleasant experience; Elrond is the first of your people that you meet in many years, and even though the events that brought you where you are are painful and traumatic, brief moments that changed your life forever and drove you to desire to never met another Elf as long as you lived, you hadn’t realized how much you missed speaking your own language, not having to ask about every specifically Dwarvish idea or concept you hear, or even just not being two feet taller than your interlocutor and anyone in the surroundings. It is really nice... he is really nice, you realize hoping you are not blushing too much, handsome and kind and with a smile whose beauty rivals the Silmarils; against your better judgement, you find yourself hoping to see him again, or at least that he won’t have to leave so soon. 

In the end, you are back to Durin and Disa’s quarters, suspiciously empty at this time of day; you sit together under the tiny tree born from the seed that Elrond gifted the Prince, and you know that your conversation is going to turn dramatic, and therefore unpleasant, in a moment, but you can’t help it.

“I know why Disa and Durin asked you to talk to me; I am so sorry you got involved, but you can save your breath: I will not rejoin my people, or leave Khazad-dum; I will stay here as long as I am allowed, and then I will go even further away.”

“You really wish to completely break off relations with your own people?”

“I already had, until today. I do realize it is odd, and you are understandably curious, but please, if you are the honourable Elf I sense you are, you will not try to change my mind, and will not ask why I have chosen to live such a lonely existence.”

In his heart, and while he is sorry he has to disappoint Durin and Disa, Elrond knows you are right: in the end, he has no right to tell you how to live your life, or to demand to know the reasons behind your choices. You seem, if not happy, content with your situation, and determined not to look back. You are an adult, and he is not your father; why should he meddle?

“Forgive me, it was not my intention to intrude in your affairs" he apologizes in the end “I promise not to ask for anything you are not ready to offer voluntarily. Let us enjoy the time we have left; will you show me your favourite places here in the kingdom?”

You happily accept, and in the end, when Elrond has to return home, the two of you part as if you have been friends for centuries. Disa and Durin don’t look disappointed that he has failed his task, but they share an eloquent look behind the two of you, looking approvingly.

“I was glad to meet you; you made my visit even more pleasant” Elrond says; he feels suddenly shy, without an apparent reason, and reticent to leave the dwarven Kingdom... to leave you “Maybe... Maybe you will allow me to write to you? If you are not too busy?”

You were going to propose the same thing, even though you felt it was premature on your part since you have just met; you are happy to have made a new friend, and you can’t wait to receive a letter of his, even though...

“I would wish nothing more; but I have to ask a promise of you” you say holding his hands in yours; Durin and Disa have left after saying goodbye -probably because they have some important matters to attend to, you naively think- and you and Elrond are alone, the mountain looming above you, his beautiful brown eyes that make you feel safe, at ease, as you never felt after leaving your home.

He doesn’t hesitate before answering: “Name it.” 

“Please, do not tell anyone in... outside Khazad-Dum you have met me. Keep my name, and my whole existence, for yourself. I know I am being vexing, but I beg you, my presence here must remain a secret.”

It is a very unexpected request, and one that makes Elrond hesitate: why would his new friend wish so much to remain hidden? What terrible past is she trying to escape? Was she hurt? Or banished? What should he...?

“Please.”

Your pleading eyes touch something deep inside him. “Of course. I promise, I will tell no one I met you; your secret is safe with me”

You hug him close, and he hugs you, and the two of you remain there for a while, filled with emotions no words can describe; when you part, feeling way less awkward than you would have imagined, you look at Elrond, at his beautiful smile, at his kind eyes and elegant features, and you feel your shyness, and the promise you have made to yourself to forego any contact with your own people, disappear like snow at the first song of spring.

“You are welcome to come back, if you want; Durin and Disa would be happy to see you again...  and I as well”

Elrond promises he will; he’s again holding your hands in his.  

It is only two days later that you receive his first letter. 

Tagging as usual @starlady66​ and @grinkitty​. Hope you like this!

I decided it was time to get some outfit screenshots for Cerphedis' cosmetics, and then she grinned when I was taking this one so we'll just start with that. :-D She's wearing the Dwarf-Make Circlet from the Keeper of Gifts (the one that barters for those steel tokens you get as random loot drops during the anniversary festival) which goes nicely with the curly hairstyle - not clipping with the curls like some of the circlets do.

See how cute? :-D

OK, so on to the wardrobe!

Along with the Dwarf-Make Circlet, her [current] main outfit features the Farmer's Fancy Tunic and Trousers, Golodir's Cloak, and Salvaged Elven-Made Leather Shoulderpads.

This one features all the fun old quest rewards/loot drops/cosmetics saved to my wardrobe. :-D Cloth Waistcoat with Gamli's Leggings, plus Boots of Hidden Peaks, Turquoise Summer Circlet, and Cloak of the Golden Forest Defender. And apparently Well-Preserved Leather Arm-Guards as part of her current equipment since I haven't yet picked out gloves to go with this outfit, oops.

Recently acquired festival awards that I probably won't use on Cerphedis that much, honestly, they look more like Lennidhren's type of thing (once I dye them gold for her, of course): Jacket, Shoulder Guards, Cap, Cloak, Gloves, and Boots of Illumination.

This'll likely be for when she gets to higher levels, Gondor and Gundabad and such: Armour and Boots of the Three Peaks; Argent Dwarf-Make Shoulder Guards; Dwarf-Make Helm; Leather Gauntlets of the Leaping Stag; and Tasselled Ceremonial Cloak.

And lastly (for now), the purple one!

Rune-Stitched Dunlending Robe with Rune-Stitched Dunlending Leggings; Boots of the Slayer's Raiment; Gloves of the Dwarf-Holds; Circlet of Fresh-Picked Flowers and Ceremonial Cloak of Remembrance.

One thing she lacks is a proper dress! I need to consult my wardrobe a bit more thoroughly and find something that suits her in that regard...

Gamli and Gerda learn Quenya from Elrond. It started as a mistake. Elrond had said something to them in Quenya, forgetting they couldn’t understand him. When they asked what he meant, he calmly explained his language to them. Now whenever it’s just the three of them, Elrond only speaks to them in his language so they can learn more.

Happy WBW! Does your world have dragons? What are they like?

None of my current WIPs have any dragons in them (sorry) and I just realized I only built one world with a dragon for a really old story I never finished. That dragon’s name in the book was “Gamli,” and he basically was cursed by his own mother to slowly turn into some sort of monster, and he so happened to turn into a dragon. Why did his mother curse him? I dunno. The last time I wrote about it was three years ago, so I don’t remember much. Apparently Gamli had so many outbursts and rages in his new ice-dragon form (he kept growing and growing and people were trying to kill him out of fear) that he ended up freezing the entire planet and had to be locked away deep underground. I think in the story/main timeline he eventually breaks free of the dungeon to go and wreak havoc.

#this has inadvertently reminded me that I should go back to revamping the story like I planned #I have too many other WIPs to work on at the moment though so I'ma just save it for later #*later = 234124 years into the future #lmao #writeblr #writing #writers of tumblr #writing community #ask answered #am writing #author's wo #writing asks #writing questions

Rings of Power Episode 2 Liveblog

The opening credits are pretty cool

Where's you're God now, Galadriel? (Literally)

So is the cold fire supposed to put us in mind of the torches from the previous episode?

POKE!

So this meteor guy is obviously a Maia of some kind

Nice that he fell from the sky with a scrap of cloth to protect his modesty.

I love Poppy, the sane friend.

Poppy! None of the elves are handsome! Why would you taunt us like this??!!

I'm surprised they actually kept him hidden successfully

Some people have wondered if Meteor Dude is a Blue Wizard, but I can't imagine them not arriving in a pair. (Spoiler, my guess is Gandalf if they're playing fair, Saruman if they're pulling a switcheroo)

I guess it was useful to have Bronwyn along after all.

Eregion! Where did that giant lake come from?

Feanor's hammer!

"True creation requires sacrifice" That's not ominous at all.

Hypnotic Silmarils confirmed! Didn't expect that.

Stop sucking up, Elrond.

YES I am all on board for Celebrimbor's super forge project! He sounds so excited!!

I love how he talks about the dwarves too

Gonna admit, it took me a sec to figure out why Khazad Dum only has this tiny little gate on the western side of the mountains.

Guess my dream of non Scottish dwaves simply wasn't to be

I love the dwarf masks!

Knowing why the dwarves are so surly makes this make a lot more sense

Oh dear. Your strange giant dude has run off. Who could have foreseen this?

Always a fan of magic powers that you can't really control

The little ear tug is a cute bit of body language

It's not a silly question, Maiar actually only eat on special occasions

Snails, yum! Cronch.

JESUS ow, cool it with the sympathetic magic!

You can hide your ears, Galadriel, but what about the light in your eyes?

So where did these castaways come from?

So obviously the hot one is the one that's gonna survive.

Corsairs prowl these water? The Numenoreans are slacking on the job.

RIP other castaways, we hardly knew ye. We didn't need your deaths to raise the stakes but we sure got em

And obviously I'm not gonna nitpick Galadriel having that name from the beginning, with nary a Celeborn in sight. But, you know. I could.

Elrond stronk. Got those Maia genes. You know, they haven't really mentioned the whole halfelven thing at all yet? And they can't exactly pretend it doesn't exist. He's kinda famous for it. Makes me wonder how much they're gonna build on that.

I choose to believe Elrond did not intentionally throw that challenge, but he did pick one he couldn't win.

"Has it been only twenty" Oh, buddy.

YOU MISSED HIS WEDDING ELROND.

Always working the diplomacy.

I love that the halls of Khazad Dum are spacious, but Elrond still has to duck sometimes.

Oh, I love Disa with my whole heart. Her hair is so cool!

"Gamli" the diffident attempts at naming OCs continue.

Disa and Durin's courtship story is so! cute! I like their dowsing technology too.

He has a tree!

But what *kind* of tree is it, Elrond?

Everything about Elrond's actions is sincere, yet calculated. He certainly is something.

What exactly is Galadriel trying to do with that rope, anyway? There's no sails.

If he's from Bronwyn's hometown how did he get to the Western ocean?? Is she not from way farther East??

Oh man, just watching Arondir crawl through that hole is giving me claustrophobia

Either it's not an Orc, or Arondir's knife is faulty

Again I'm not gonna nitpick names too much, but Theo's is kinda weird; Tolkien didn't generally import Greek and Latin names to stand in for Middle Earth languages (except for some of the Hobbit women's jewel and flower names I guess)

I suppose I understand Bronwyn's instinct to stay with her son and hide instead of running for help while she can.

Lol, fail orc got taken out by two level 1 commoners

Yow, Galadriel was raised by sailors but I guess she never really trained in seas this rough. She should know how to tie a better knot, though

There are A LOT of plotlines in this show, it's hard to wait for everyone to come back around the carousel

Would a lantern full of fireflies actually...work? Very Aesthetic, though.

Could be Radagast, I guess

Nori has a lot of dreams in her head, doesn't she

Is it in Sadoc's book? Is that where you can find the stars?

HE KILLED THE FIREFLIES!

I heard a theory that Durin III is actually just an illusion or hallucination. Interesting if true.

I SWEAR TO ERU IF THERE IS A SILMARIL IN THAT BOX I AM CALLING MAEDHROS ON THE PHONE RIGHT THE FUCK NOW

Evil vampire sword!!! Oh, poor Theo, I don't want you to become a ringwraith

Elendil?? Are we finally getting Numenoreans? Maybe??

See y'all next Friday!

RINGS OF POWER HEADCANON

Durin IV's eldest (and canonical) child, the future Durin V, didn't meet Elrond during his visit at Khazad-Dum because for two years already he had been serving for the King of the Iron Hills as a squire and a cup-bearer.

Gamli moves to the Iron Hills years later to marry the princess and heir to the throne, while Gerda becomes High Priestess of Aulë.
