Plentiful as Sand is Plentiful. LoTR. on ao3.

There was for many years an hourglass upon Elrond’s desk, a tall ivory-and-glass thing from sunken Númenor. 

As a little child Estel liked to turn it and turn it, and would sit for hours upon his foster father’s lap following the mother-of-pearl etchings on the handle with his fingertips and watching the sand shift softly. 

For a time it was too heavy for his small wrists to turn; but Elrond with his keen hearing would know when the last grains came with an end, and knew when to turn it without lifting his eyes from his papers.

 Elrond had given it for him to hold, when he told him the truth of his name: Aragon, son of Arathorn, heir to Isildur’s line and Isildur’s grim failure. 

“Yet also to the courage of his people, and their skill,” Elrond told him. “Your forefather it was who made this time piece as a gift to me. From the glass-rooms of Armenelos it came, the last of Isildur’s works of beauty. It has been of good use to me, and good memory; I give it to you, that you should remember him with gratitude, as well as bitterness.”

“Yet bitter is it what you say to me,” said Estel, who was Aragorn. He was startled still, and yet not surprised entirely; for the blood of kings ran in him, and had at times left an uneasy premonition upon him. 

Still he would have remained been Estel, and no lost kingdom’s wayward heir; least of all in this century, this Age of the world, with an evil reckoning brewing in the distance. 

He turned the hourglass in his hands; a Mannish means of counting time, not to be found in other elvish kingdoms, but common enough in the house of Elrond Peredhel. “Keep it, Master Elrond. I cannot have it as my own, ere I am Isildur’s heir truly. These hurrying moments that are my lifetime shall be a heavy load to carry, I judge, and my course too rough for such a delicate thing.”

“Then keep it I shall, until you wish to reclaim it, or your score of years are run to their course,” said Elrond; and laid upon Estel’s shoulder the heavy comfort of his healer’s hands, which he felt for a time like a yoke as well as a kindness. 

It rested between a tall orchid Celebrían had found once in her expeditions in the wilds of Ennor, a narrow and tall and very orange creature, the last of its kind on these shore - and on the other side was his pile of used quills, which he tended to keep until they were worn through into stumps, too blunt to be sharpened.

He used it little, after that day; but at times Arwen his daughter came, and stood by the chair where Aragorn had sat with bent shoulders to her his name. 

Her fingers, long broideress fingers, touched the waves and leviathans Isildur had carved, with careful deliberation, in the last days of his youth, the dying of his empire. Her eyes grew clouded, then; not with the memory of the past, but her own designs, a future seen with the force of her want. Her own lord of man, his dear face not like any other’s; her own cities crowded with the smell of stone dust and salt.

She left it there, warmed by her skin, and went away from it but for rare and secret visits; but Elrond at times looked heavily upon it, as once he had not. 

That was another Age of the world. There is now an hourglass amidst Tar-Elessar’s instruments - behind the inkwell of Gondorin silver, besides the whittling of an eagle in flight his eldest daughter has wrought him. 

Many gifts have been to him, the king well-returned; but none quite as ancient. Elessar turns it in his hands, when a heavy ruling keeps him at work long into the night; Isildur’s hourglass, grown light with the strength of his manhood, feels always a little terrible to hold.

5 Songs I listen to

I never miss a music tag and to prove that I'm answering this one I got tagged to over a month ago. Thank you @grilledcheese-aspiration and @deedee-sims ❤

So this ended up being sort of lite themed playlist since I've been lately reminding myself how it feels to be young and desperately long after someone.

Waiting On You - ENMY

Never The One - Ocean Sleeper

Blameless - If Not For Me

Help Me Out! - Our Mirage

Hourglass - Normandie feat. Dani Winter-Bates

I dedicate this to @themeasureofasim and tag @tvickiesims, @microscotch, @jellymeduza, and @curiousb! No pressure :)

#nonsims #meme #challenge #music tag #hourglass has this kind of beat i can't stop dancing to

[waywardsalt]

i made this a few months ago for a discord and i figured i might as well share it here too

#loz #legend of zelda #phantom hourglass #bellum #bellum is kind of a nothing villain but i like him #this image is basically the framework for how i write bellum's relationship with linebeck a lot of the time #the severity and seriousness of 'ruined your life' varies between aus n shit #ironically post-ph is one of the ones where 'ruined your life' is a bit hyperbolic #im in a talkative mood rn so im gonna have a little tag tangent going on #bellum is fun and like with this image you can take him many different ways depending on your own tastes and readings n stuff #recently i pinpointed some character i mightve accidentally based my take of bellum on and it escapes me rn #but i like to have him come off as a sort of brash young god sort of thing whos been very gung-ho about what hes been created to do and #represent and ive def leaned into him acting differently in different aus but backing it up with the idea that. hes immortal and thinks its #fun to try different things hwne he earnestly interacts with and among mortals. like in my crimson king au (the uh. one where he has a #homoerotic relationship with linebeck) his purpose behind masquerading as human and settling for a decidedly slower and more complicated #method of obtaining food and taking control is because he wants to challenge himself after years of just smashing through and taking what h #wants and because hes more interested in the more minute details of mortal interaction and how he could play along for a while #hes a bit more... whimsical? laid-back? something for the most part with linebeck because he's used to being a fuckin demonic god whos #mostly just playing around and not making attachments bc fuck it if he gets bored he can just eat these people and this one guy gets his #mercy and support because he's interesting and useful as a tool (and eventually as a source of genuine friendship. a common theme i seem to #have with bellum [perhaps as an accidental parallel or smth to the spirits n oshus] is him stumbling into finally understanding why #relationships are worth it? like a lot of the time his interactions with linebeck give him a new understanding of humans and he learns to #care about linebeck despite starting off seeing him as just an interested subject to watch or tinker with idk how to describe it #like in post-ph [ig post ph spoilers] as the fourth member of the main cast his main arc is abt kinda being forced to mingle with mortals #and ends up really caring and supporting these people and considering his own role and place in the world after kind of isolating and #surrounding himself with effectively a literal hivemind and loyal monsters and just reacting to outside forces with the intent to consume #and eradicate all danger so ig theres some parallel with linebeck too? bellum is a work in progress he's kinda a weird oc at this point? #when does an existing character stop being that and starts becoming an oc idk. its a weird line here bc bellum has minimal characterization #) anyways. funny meme or whatever. the discord seemed to like it im not used to sharing memes or whatever. #my post

[nyehhh-hh]

Sorry y'all, i'm going through it lmao

#.bullshttery #maybe binge watch hourglass challenge will do #skdhjdksks

star wars rewatch idea: take a shot every time someone falls into some kind of hole or shaft

#actually this genuinely sounds really fun. latimer and i arent huge alcohol drinkers but a virgin version of this #with like candy or something would be delightful esp if we're stoned #i myself actually COULD do it as a true shot drinking challenge i am just genuinely afraid at how many #times guys fall down holes or shafts in star wars im worried id die LOL #it would be so fucking fun though. #maybe we could do 'take a sip every time...“ instead of a whole shot #at least til i get a better idea of around how many to expect in an episode. #if its like 6-8 or less times per movie on average i could do real shots about it. but what if theres like. 20 in one movie. id die LOL #star wars is so stupid and i hate it and i love it and its like one of those oil/water hourglass toys to me #like i know objectively its shitty made and if youve ever seen one youve seen em all #but yet i do still love to watch them. and it can be fun to look at a new one or an old favorite every now and then <3

[shadowlinktheshadow]

I know Ravio and Shadow Link and Dark Link and all these Link counterparts are really cool and all but never

And I say NEVER have I ever seen THIS FUCKER

Be talked about-

#THIS GUY #THIS GUY RIGHT HERE SIR #HE MADE ME SPIT OUT MY IMAGINARY COFFEE #and his fuCKING PRINCE OF RED LIONS #i kicked his ASS sir #he challenged me #to a swordfight #THIS GUY CHALLENGED ME TO A SWORDFIGHT #legend of zelda #loz #loz phantom hourglass #phantom hourglass #zelda #btw his name is nyeve

[lolilou-lagaf]

I have started this challenge and WITH GOD AS MY WITNESS I WILL FINISH IT

fun fact:

Phantom Hourglass was my first Zelda and my first weird experience in terms of gender, because I was convinced that Link was a girl when he was presented as a boy. This was because I had given him my name, which is a girl's name.

Accidentally losing my mind and telling the Spirit Halloween cashier in detail about why the plague doctor accessories I'm buying have winged hourglasses on them because I have a winged hourglass tattoo and I'm just really passionate about the winged hourglass symbolism and it's exciting when it shows up on plague doctors

#neil gaiman do NOT ruin the winged hourglass symbol by doing something stupid with it in GOmens 2 challenge
