comforting ways

preference summary: one way they comfort you when you're sad.

content warnings: none

fandom: the hobbit

characters: bilbo, tauriel, thorin, fili, kili, dwalin, bofur, thranduil

gender neutral reader

Bilbo: He knew you had been missing home along the journey, and tried his best to cheer you up. He would pick flowers that reminded him of you, he would talk with you under the starry sky next to the warm fire. He wanted to keep your mind off of things, but if it also meant being a shoulder to cry on while you did want to think about home. He's a sweetheart about your sadness, he also understands missing home, so he'll give you stories to help with relatability.

Tauriel: She would take a walk with you around the palace gardens if she wasn't on duty. She would listen intently while you talk about what it was that was on your mind. She would hold your hand lightly, rubbing soothing circles into the back of it. She would offer suggestions if that was what you were looking for, or she would offer words of comfort. Once you've gotten most of your sadness out into the world, she'll pull you in for a small kiss to try and get the rest of it.

Thorin: He would move the stars and sky if he could, to make you happy. He's more a man of action than comforting words. He would wrap his arms around you, pressing his lips to your forehead. It doesn't mean he wouldn't add some words of comfort, mostly whispering I love you's and Go ahead, I've got you as you let your emotions go into his shoulder, whether it's crying or quietly venting. He's just better at listening, and providing a physical comfort.

Fili: He was a mix of sweet words and soft jokes. He wanted to show you he was a reliable, safe person to come to when you're sad, and he'll do sweet things for you. He'll make you something warm, or wrap you up in something warm as well. He'll play with your hair, and lets you lie down on his lap while lightly stroking your side. He knows that sometimes silence, with the occasional words, with another person in the room is all it takes to ease the pain in your heart, little by little.

Kili: He would hate to see you sad, wanting to take the pain of your sadness himself. He would crack jokes, giving you his best puppy dog eyes to not be so sad. When he sees you crack a small smile, he feels relieved. He knows that sometimes your mind needs to be taken off of whatever topic it was on, but then he'll listen to what it is you want to talk about if it's what's needed. He'll plant small kisses around your shoulders and head as you talked, to remind you he was there.

Dwalin: He's a man of few words and more action as well, like Thorin. He is a little unsure at first though, what he should do to comfort. He'll sit silently near you, hovering, wanting to let you know he was there for you however you needed him to be. When you look up at him, wanting his comfort in the way you wanted, he wouldn't hesitate in getting closer and pulling you in tight. He was gentle with his hugs, but he made sure that you knew he would always be there for you.

Bofur: He would break into some soft songs, or hum, while having you leaned up against him to feel the vibrations. He would eventually get carried away, leading to a whole dance routine, and it would make you feel better with his happy approach to a lot of situations. He would pull you in afterwards, wondering how else he could help ease your sadness, and would do what it is you wanted. Whether it was hearing stories of the journey, or talking through your sadness.

Thranduil: He would check you all over, to make sure it wasn't an injury, feeling more secure in taking away a physical injury than an inner feeling of sadness. He has a harder time with emotion, but he's gotten better when fretting and constantly asking if you were doing any better. He would eventually calm down, realizing what you want is just him holding you and giving you comforting words. He would draw a bath, to help you feel more comforted from the heat as well.

(This is in response to Qnf-Enjoyer! I can't stop laughing in your post on my screen the emojis are taking up half the screen holy shit. I had issues posting it please tell me if it looks like that for you I kind of hope it is bye. If you don't want it up lmk and I can delete, idk if my wifi is collapsing or if Tumblr really got the last laugh on us gn)

HAPPY LATE BIRTHDAY!!! It's really a late birthday wish now gn but I'm glad you got to spend it with friends! I'm honestly dreading the change from that nice, gentle and easing zero into a more official 1 😍 21 looks like you've gained a lot of experience and now considered an official adult worldwide. I wish you well with the transition all the same . I hope the year brings a lots of fond memories. I also need to say I think it's funny that you're an Aries as a lot of my friends past and current are Aries?? something in the way fr. I don't believe in like horoscope compatibility or anything at all like that but that's kind of funny.

I was truly expecting Moriarty back again as well, for good reason, and honestly immensely disappointed we didn't get him, despite his fleeting presence in the show (being alive that is) he was top tier. Ok re-reading that really brought back my memories of the show what on earth was the thought process because they completely lost their backbone with Marys character development / exploration. The writing was really, really lacking on occasion- maybe not the writing per se but the plot and how linear / seamless it flowed. The way you broke it down on how their marriage was falling apart but oh what's this?? Mary and Sherlocks bffs arc with a steel chair? The easy way out fr and they really sealed off any potential hope of something more arising from it for good. It was anything but satisfying, nobility and shock value aside it felt like an extremely boring conclusion to a character that could've literally broken the mold on shows like this. I had no fucking idea there was proper logic and reasoning behind the tea is gay etc. shirt (I hope your book goes balls to the walls on breaking down eating / food imagery I need to hear about it in respect to this) because that paints a chunk of her video in an entirely different light. That's genuinely interesting and raises good points but it was just used as a device to "prove" the fandom was talking shit. You're so right about Tumblr coming together collectively to draw together theories / conclusions regarding shows etc. and if it's all whittled down to the doings of one singular person it's not entirely fair nor accurate. I really thought she was one of the girls, a tumblrina if you will but she's going out of her way to make the people who were fans at the time look senseless 😭 and profiting 🙁 It literally just gets the more I read. Documenting Tumblr is a hefty challenge especially over such a long period of time, you're bound to miss critical aspects somewhere from lack of memory or simply not knowing about their existence, but outright and knowingly forgoing information?? It's making sense why she went denying others help / statements 🥴 I can see why people were opposing the creation of the video, clearly it was quite lacking in the unbiased information department, just giving an overview- an unbiased rundown would've been an interesting documentary style vid but she seems to have skewed the narrative to suit her. On an absolute side note I've not seen Hannibal but I've really considered starting it for like two years (more like every time someone references it on my dash). Besides the real obvious plot line I know literally nothing about it nor its reception in the public but lmk if you enjoyed it / found it worth! Purr on the hobbit being a little lost in translation of media, I think it might be a complete knock out for me if I were to attempt the books though. Every time I start reading or even glimpsing sideways at a fantasy novel there's just so much worldbuilding down to the slang language they use I lose track so quickly.

3 solid years before returning to a show I don't know if I'm more impressed at your dedication to finishing it or the fact you remembered it existed. I can barely remember the shows I watched last month and if I finished the show then I will be capable of answering nothing about it, it's wiped from memory. Going back to games is way harder too I hope rise of the tomb raider sees you again soon. I actually managed to complete my first game in a while the other day, Corpse Party? Idk if that's a blast from the past for you but I remember watching a lets play of it when I was new to the internet and wanted to play it myself. I was surprised at the scenes I remembered considering it was like a decade ago but it is a horror so maybe that explains it. I will say it wasn't that bad when there were chase scenes the characters moved so slow it was actually funny. I feel like the only habit I can consistently do for a little escapism as a treat in my day to day life is read some random ff on ao3 before I go to sleep. A random fandom, sort by kudos, page 5 onwards and start scrolling, literal gems in there. Currently side eyeing the spn fandom as I've never once read a fic or even watched an episode but there's just so many there's bound to be some good stories. Misha coming out as straight really had some unforeseen side effects, like putting spn into my mind for the first time in a year.

Honestly second season of squid game chances are is only going to leave disappointment in its path here. From the kdramas I've watched, not all but a lot really do just stick to one season and that's it, as much as I can appreciate Netflix trying to shake things up and introduce more long term plans I really think Squid Game was not the one to double down on. We're relating on a lot I'm ngl, the daddy issues too? Can we catch a break 😭 But noted, last episode of Arcane and I'll make sure I don't have any plans to leave my apartment room. You've piqued my interest saying you have a different opinion on said explosion so I'm really looking forward to discussing it! My birthday is actually in June! But I appreciate the kind words a lot ;-; We watched the bo burnham special back near when it came out (kind of) but my birthday is maybe approaching quick? so Bo Burnham (common gnf blog enjoyer, he'll be reading our back and forths no doubt) if you've got plans for another release with love please direct it towards summer so I can recreate my newfound tradition.

Ok next long weekend I get I'll try for a Jujutsu Kaisen binge because the thought of a proper dark arc coming soon sounds like it's worth the anticipation. You've really hit the nail on the head with demon slayer, The main character is just very morally straight and narrow from ep 1 and you're not super attached to him for it. Zenitsu and Inosuke are who I think of first when I talk about the show. Definitely more background from either of their side would be nice. I did hear that it was done, back before I started watching it a friend at the time showed my a major spoiler so I'm going to assume it was set for near completion at that point as well, like a year and a half ago. It is surprising that it's so short but like you said if they had managed to flesh out Tanjiro a bit more they could've milked this cash cow for years. It does make my heart happy that there's a decent Zenitsu fight on the way, something to look forward to and I'll force myself into watching for it. I hope they pour the budget on him, nothing worse than an anime series flopping on scenes you were anticipating for years (haikyuu s4 I hate to throw you under the bus). I too am a big fan of seeing my faves go through their hurt to comfort route, it makes it all the more satisfyingly when things come back around. We need that here, we need hurt increased and I would also like an enforced found family dynamic because what they've got going on is too casual, too purely circumstantial (I don't even remember the plot enough to tell you why they're with each other but it wasn't selling me at the time anyway). They're one level above the avengers tower, it's not nearly enough. Ok the fact I know the exact radio show with Zenitsus va calling the coins, eyes closed, purely based on sound is so funny that was so surprising. Also I had completely forgot Zenitsu was voicing Dabi holy fuck the duality of these guys. My biggest surprise in connecting the seiyuu dots as it were, and this isn't even surprising tbh but I just wasn't expecting the voice of Dazai from Stray Dogs to be the same man to voice fucking Light from Death Note. This shocked me I was floored with this info, I think its because I've seen the va with the cast on stray dogs interacting and he is such a fun, extroverted personality I just would not have pegged this man to play such a sinister role 15 years prior. Either way, love that man (I don't know anything about him) and good for him what a resume. I too am a big Sokka enjoyer so I love that we've gone for the siblings. I loved the fact that he was not deterred one bit by miss katara strongest water bender you could meet in your life, toph metal bender herself, and the literal avatar. He would just roll up with his boomerang and I loved him for it. Yet, then all of a sudden in s3 they randomly gave him an episode where he was doubting himself, his abilities, why he was even there. Like fair and expected if this happened in s1 / early s2 when things were starting to take shape, but it felt like such an after thought of his character, a grab at a spare scene to flesh out an ep. To me it was nothing like his personality, especially after a year of travelling and proving yourself useful time and time and time again, not once hinting at this doubt even on the smallest of scales. Maybe I missed his feelings previously if expressed but it felt half assed to me. The found family ATLA gave us is on the tallest tip of the pyramid for sure, they went through fights and disagreements of all sorts it felt really worked at, it was so good. I haven't seen Voltron, well I have seen the very first episode that I watched 5 years ago but I didn't stick to it? Although kind of wouldn't be opposed to trying it, I keep thinking of this one video I saw where this guy was swearing his life down that the first two seasons of the show were a gift from the heavens and I haven't been able to shake his opinion. I'm sorry to hear that the final season ever was that bad, it's giving GoT disappointment, it's such a shit feeling seeing your favorites get left with mediocrity.

I'll look into Devilman Crybaby, it's been sitting in my Netflix list for probably two years so it might be approaching its time. I'm interested to see what type of ending it has, I am with you undoubtedly that DN was deserving of something better for L and Light, fair enough if the series ended with them but the fact that it didn't. Just give him the win at that point I don't know what to tell ya but I've lost interest like he's just lost his life. I say that but I still enjoyed the show a lot a lot but improvements would go a long way, I'd love to see a remake / spin-off in the future with an alternate ending. Oh really? I didn't know people weren't keen on the animating style in ToG but I really loved it. I haven't read the webtoon yet either despite swearing I would after finishing s1 yet here we are. The betrayal scene took me by such surprise I was expecting Rachel to be not how Bam saw her but I was not expecting that. The Promised Neverland was one of my all time faves when I first saw S1! Lotta lotta love for Ray I'll be honest, he played the waiting game and was suffering mentally for it but he played his cards so right. S2 if you haven't seen I'll confirm for you that it sucked, it was very sub par in comparison to s1 and on checking up the fandom spaces after it looked like the scenes were really rushed as if to fit it into the 12 ep space. Very lacking, I'm sure reading the manga would fulfill some disappointment but again when something you've waited for isn't animated well it's so annoying.

You've really put into words how Dream makes you feel as a viewer, just untrustworthy (and honestly disbelieving) of what he's choosing to tell the viewers because it is ultimately for a gain on his end but it's done in a more under the table, pulling the puppet strings way. Like oh I'll leak the knf kiss and other random pieces of info on my private podcast, people talk about it on twitter and cite my merch discord stream, it gains the reputation for spilling secrets there, merch sales spike because people don't want to miss it (lot of fomo in the twt fandom space), people want to be a part of the discord general chat, have a chance to talk with him one on one, etc. I understand it's working well so stopping isn't going to be considered an option from his pov but it's the fact the secrets he leaks aren't even surrounding him. Fair enough if he was just using his own instances or experiences to get people coming in but using your friends business fr? tbh to me he does seem to see Gnf + Sapnap as expendables that he created in the fucking dream cinematic universe so telling their info doesn't seem to bother him (literally not once ever). I absolutely feel where you're coming from in seeing traits in his friendships that would not be flying if it was happening between you and a friend. Hearing something you told a friend in confidence come back around is shit enough nevermind it coming back 1,000 fold. Not even just the gossip but as you said his live behavior half the time is pulling the piss. I vividly remember Dream once on a basketball stream saying he probably has as much if not more coding experience that he could put on his c.v. than George and he didn't even do the degree. Like what the fuck jerk yourself off harder. Good for you, you've coded projects, you've built a resume, but why are you making it a competition? (and making George's college experience sound worthless 😍) Learn what it's like to not feel the need to constantly put yourself on a pedestal above your friends please it's for world peace. Wouldn't do well to forget him and Tommy's back and forth in the replies of a Philza tweet either because that was so telling on his character but I also love how Philza came to Tommy's defense, good for you king. Definitely can appreciate Georges approach to content creation being (what seems to be) a more amplified version of the parts of himself he wants to showcase. As you said, it's not a massive mask (that was unintentional) or a newly crafted persona, it's just him, just some guy. His backstory or his personal experiences aren't his content, so as you said feels a bit weird getting that layer, it's like been given a piece of a jigsaw for a puzzle that isn't yours. Exactly as you said as well with Bad and Q having a mutual ground of being open on stream, like it goes both ways with them no bother. George on the other hand has yet to go out of his way, at least to my knowledge, to tell something private to thousands about Dreams personal life. If it's not replicated behavior on your friends part then it looks like a pretty good indicator to simply stop.

Ok kind of fun I also used to watch Foolishes streams but bare in mind this was literally like last year so I think I'm out of the loop by a long shot. He was a reliable watch for sure and the builds were definitely what I was watching, I think Kinoko at the time. Don't know how well I'd take to his Gordon Ramsey or valorant plays in the bg as noise tbh but if I'm stuck for something I'll give him a peak. I'll be honest the co-op games are honestly stressful, even playing with my friends one of them takes it serious while my other friend and I like to play anything but the characters intended roles, so it's a bit of an interesting dynamic. It's fun but intimidating starting out, there are times when I was the enemy teams best player and by God was I reminded of it in chat. Playing with enough mutuals so that you have the majority is the way to go. I wish that I could play Genshin soo bad! My laptop is quite a cheap one so Genshin would play at 1 frame a minute it was atrocious I didn't even get halfway in the intro scene. I then used an old iPhone to download it but old is the word I think a 5 se? and it worked but the phone charges once every two months so I threw in the towel. I got about as far as George did in his first sponsored stream. However, I am thinking in investing in a new phone (my current one is incapable of running it) so I'll definitely get it when I upgrade (I was heavily considering an iPhone purchase but they scam their customers so hard with no headphone jack? no wall plug? no money left after purchase? so the decision process will be a time consuming one). Do you play on pc/phone? I'm assuming PC is fun af tbh but I've seen enough tiktoks of people wishing at concerts for the good luck to know its at least playable ahjbdh. Although this won't mean much to me right now who do you main on Genshin? I don't know anyone apart from Paimon and they're not even playable 😭 I also sadly haven't tried BOTW but I'm aiming to soon, it's one of the best games I hear on the switch and honestly the bar is 6 feet under but it does look good.

Working from home is so sexy I literally love it, the pjamma pants set up, work laptop in bed, and a cup of tea in hand, it's ideal. Honestly I find the hardest part of my job (my job mainly being a mix between computer work & running tests) is actually talking to my coworkers 😭 All who I spend most time with are genuinely lovely people but I find it hard to open up as is so when they talk so freely about their personal lives I'll smile and nod, and those are my sole contributions. Luckily(? Maybe not) the topic these days has surrounded the stock market, which I've only ever looked at to see the GameStop graph like a year and a half ago so I'm a little out of depth bye. To be fair I don't think I'll be correlating on many topics with them but I'm at the very least learning a lot at the lunch table. I think my course has it so we'll at a maximum have a choice between two lecturers to work under. One of them would definitely be strict on the deadlines but he's so extroverted and eccentric? Like he's 5'5/5'6 and yet the most intimidating man I've ever met?? But maybe that's what I need, a short king capable of making me fear for my happiness walking into class. For real don't worry about rambling in any direction, I enjoy reading your thoughts always pop off fr and I'm the exact same in favoring typing over actually articulating my thoughts in real time. I'm glad we have a so many joint interests!! I hope to start one of your anime recs this weekend as I've got one episode left of breaking bad 🤒 it only took 6 months but we made it and it was some roller-coaster of a show. I really enjoyed it, I think my favorite ;part was s2 middle to the end because it just stepped up in how deep it was getting. Not like s1 wasn't telling but fuck me s2 just hit way fucking harder. I'm also finally going to watch bbqnf play with Dean something idk who he is but he played Hank, idk if you've seen breaking bad? Either way I hope the upload was fun, it feels very strange to think Quackity secured such a collaboration but also very sweet that he pulled George in after they bonded over breaking bad for so long. Anyway I hope you have a good weekend legend and that you also maintain motivation throughout, we got MCC as a little booster to look forward to at the very least 🥳

(now that I've seen the part again where you say you created your qnf enjoyer blog to send this I'm beginning to think it's been more than 2 weeks since you sent this 😭 the universe can try all it wants to put our chats on hold but ultimately we'll always win. Update as of posting ur ask: we did not win)
