Nightmare

Read a Bagginshield fic with the premise "while Thorins passed out after the battle of Five Armies, Dain and Balin trick Bilbo into learning dwarfish politics and he accidentally becomes an important mediator between Dane and Erebor," and that concept is funny as fuck. You wake up after nearly dying in a war against your generation's long enemy, just to find out that your ex boyfriend, who you tried to murder in a greed induced rage, is now helping run your newly reclaimed homeland.

does anybody remember that one clip of arcane animators talking about how there are virtually no perfect circles in the show? the exception being the hextech gemstones. makes me think about how the blowjob brothers are so often framed in the middle of some goddamn circle

Can we let people forget things?

Can we let people forget things? Cause sometimes I have memory like dory and other times I can remember very well- like I remember that despite the fact you’re a beast at maths you actually like the science subjects! But I can never remember what you said you’re favourite colour was or i remember the time I used a Harry Potter dementor pick up line on you and you laughed but I can’t remember the day of your birth but I know you’re a sweet April baby.

you mean the world to me but if I don't remember things off the top of my head it's not that I don't love you, I just don't have a great memory sometimes

The road goes ever on and on…

…and Thorin Oakenshield will pass into legend.

Hobbits and naming conventions

The most common comparison that’s been going around lately has been between the names of hobbits belonging to the Baggins family and the Took family. There is quite a distinct difference between the names, so it’s understandable that it seems a bit jarring to go from something simple like, say, Longo to something more noble-sounding like Isengrim.

In comparison, the names given to girls are very different. True, there are a few more nonsensical ones, like Belba. But there are also plenty of flower- or gem-names. This also gives a very odd contrast between the names of male hobbits and those of female hobbits.

However, there is a bit of reasoning behind the names, at least those belonging to hobbits from families with Fallohide blood. Those are not taken out of thin air. They were oftentimes given names evoking figures of legend (whether this means figures of legend in our world or in Middle-earth is hard to say, but it’s certainly not mistaken either way).
