#the valiant

[wisesnail]

"High upon the shoulders of Thangorodrim [Fingon] climbed, and looked in despair upon the desolation of the land; but no passage or crevice could he find through which he might come within Morgoth's stronghold. Then […] he took his harp and sang a song of Valinor […]; and his voice rang in the mournful hollows that had never heard before aught save cries of fear and woe. Thus Fingon found what he sought."

Tolkien, J. R. R. (2013). The Silmarillion. HarperCollins.

Dating Fingon Would Include...

❄︎ You could be doing anything with him, and he’ll consider it a date. He loves every moment the both of you spend together. When he can’t spend time with you, he’ll write letters in absolute detail, informing you about this day.

❄︎ Now that you’re courting, this means that he’s free to deliver all those kisses he’d suppressing. He’s very affectionate. PDA isn’t something that bothers him at all, however, he wouldn’t go all out to smoother you. He has his limits and doesn’t want to make you uncomfortable.

❄︎ As much as he wants everyone to know that the both of you are together, he still wants some things left for private.

❄︎ Praises and compliments are something you will not hear every day. He wants you to know how grateful he is for having a wonderful person like you in his life.

❄︎ His mother was the first person to meet you. She was thrilled to learn that her son found someone. His father was next, and he drilled you. It felt like an interrogation, lucky Finno was there to ease the questioning. His father just wants to make sure that you’re not a bad influence on his son.

❄︎ As much as everything with you is a date, he enjoys horseback riding and picnics with you. Sometimes you’d both go for a swim in the lake, reminiscing on how you both met.

❄︎ It’s moments like these that he cherishes with you the most. When you both are in your comfort zone, without a care in the world, when he can be himself without having his father force him into royal duties.

❄︎ Because of this, he spends a lot of his time reminiscing about the future with you. A life away from royal duties. Where he can come home and have you wrap your arms around him and make him forget about the outside world.

❄︎ He loves holding your hand. Once it’s in his grasp, he’s never letting go, so good luck getting your hands back. It’s his now.

❄︎ This leads to him zoning out a lot on your dates. You would have to snap him out of it, mostly kissing him. Sometimes, he would purposefully zone out so you can kiss him.

❄︎ There are moments in his life during the time of Beleriand when he's stressed and facing his inner demons. He really appreciates when you stick around and attempt to understand his pain and suffering.

❄︎ Even then, he keeps all his emotions to himself, not wanting you to learn about them and consider them your problem. You'd never have to worry about him becoming distant because he's always fighting to be happy for your comfort. As long as you're happy, so is he.

❄︎ One time when you were cuddling, you got up to answer the door, which led to you letting go of his hands. The look of audacity on his face. ‘How dare you? How dare you release your hold on me? Why? How could you?’ you felt so bad because he looked like a kicked puppy.

❄︎ You spent the rest of the day making it up to him. You had told him that he should get into acting, he’d be an amazing actor. Your relationship with him will be full of endless fun.

❄︎ Expect to see a familiar redhead popping in and out from time to time. He’s also your best friend because he’s your lover’s best friend.

[softlysilverfountainsfall]

I was flipping through the Silmarillion's index, as you do, and I found this entry:

Astaldo 'The Valiant', name of the Vala Tulkas. 28

and then I found page 28, "Greatest in strength and deeds of prowess is Tulkas, who is surnamed Astaldo, the Valiant. He came last to Arda, to aid the Valar in the first battles with Melkor."

Which all puts a whole new spin on Fingon the Valiant's nickname, because the way elves are with language there's no way they didn't know that this was one of Tulkas's names! Of course what it means is probably entirely dependent on who gave that nickname to Fingon and when, but is it in honor of Tulkas? Mocking Tulkas/the Valar? Honoring Fingon by comparing him to the Vala who fought Morgoth? Truly just pure coincidence? That I doubt--if they didn't want the relation to be apparent they could've called Fingon "the brave" "the courageous" etc. From a Doylist view, is Tolkien drawing the similarity? I need to know!

[lesbianjesus-gideonnav]

big fan of the locked tomb's version of the virgin mary. her first appearance is in a hazmat suit with a gun. her name is nineteen words. god's nickname for her references evanescence. her niece has blue hair and pronouns and several guns. she stole god's sperm. after she dies she fights a popular folk hero warrior from pluto. she and her newborn baby fell from space into a cult, a bit like a comet. she was planning to sacrifice the baby to open the locked tomb and start the apocalypse and kill god. she is not a virgin, and is bisexual. her skeleton is farming snow leeks to this day.
