It seems that my-- apparently controversial-- opinion that incest is bad and gross isn't that widely accepted in the Silmarillion Fandom. The amount of fics I've seen where people are shipping characters that are first cousins is honestly nauseating.
I'm not trying to yuck anybodies yum, but yall nasty.
I understand that there's not that large of a shipping pool, considering many of the characters are related, but goddamn there are like a million elves in Tolkien's works. I don't care if you have to ship characters who have never even interacted in Canon. Please please please, no more incest fics!
