Thinking of how Legolas began to feel the call of the sea, irresistible and overwhelming, during the quest and yet waited until everyone in the fellowship died before leaving. Except Gimli of course, who he took with him.
He waited decades out of love and friendship.
Thinking about Merry and Pippin buried next to Aragorn.
Thinking about Eomer who called for Merry at the end of his life, to see him one more time before he passed away.
Thinking about Sam who, after Rosie passed away, left Middle Earth to see Frodo one more time before his own death.
Thinking about Legolas and Aragorn singing for Boromir, Merry and Pippin who owe their lives to him praising his deeds and bravery.
Thinking about Gimli, who walked the Path of the Dead out of love of Aragorn and visited Fangorn forest out of love of Legolas.
Thinking about Gandalf, who feels responsible for the heavy burden he placed on Bilbo and Frodo, and who took them with him to Aman, traveling with them one last time to bring them somewhere where they will finally know peace.
The love i have for them.

Every now and then I get asked about ships, and I usually avoid the question both because I think it's obvious what will win and because "ship wars" just aren't fun. But, fine. Just this once, in honor of Valentine's Day, ~let the ship wars rage~. Hopefully no one sails too far west and triggers the sinking of Númenor.

Concept: Fire Lords traditionally dress like the stages of the sun to match their reign.
When Zuko is first crowned, he dresses in the colours of dawn. Bright yellows and pinks and even purples. He starts to wear more traditional crimson-and-gold robes after a few years, the colours of midday when Agni is at his strongest. And towards the end of his reign, when he's getting ready to pass the crown onto Izumi, he starts dressing like the setting sun.

Hang on
Humans and other "good" species (dwarves, elves, halflings, etc) are usually diurnal- we're active during the day.
As such, we associate the light with "goodness", and thus refer to good things with terminology referencing light, the sun, and so forth.
Orcs, goblins, trolls, etc follow "dark lords" and "dark religions", they live in "dark kingdoms" and join "the forces of darkness".
They're also usually nocturnal.
I'm starting to see where the cultural confusion may have come from here.
