This is the Erestor that lives rent free in my head. anime ٩(๑`^´๑)۶ uwu man is cute and all but uh
This mf if older than the moon, older than Finwë, older than the Journey... Oromë first stumbles on the elves when this guy is already an adult, ok? This Erestor has been hunting dragons in Middle Earth since before Fëanor was even born. He's founded and overthrown Avari kingdoms that no one's even heard of by the time he rocks up in Rivendell. He has 20 something different names because that's how much language has evolved during his lifetime. Erestor is and absolute fucking badass and I will not stand his uwuification for a single second longer >:(
Obi-Wan is Cal's father this, Obi-Wan is Korkie's father that, blah blah blah -
Hot Take: Cal and Korkie are twins.
now this is my kind of politics
seems like the fairest way
Commander "Thunder Thighs" Cody is known and loved, but consider, for extra bonus points - Captain Rex has thee most Incredible Forearms known to man, woman, or nb fan.
In fics, people often use the Quenya for adult male/female: 'the nér did this' or 'the nís said that' which is... fine, I guess? Tolkein did use them in some of his translations to mean man/woman in a non-species-specific kind of way... and this is completely irrational but to me it still sometimes comes across as directly calling someone a 'male' or a 'female'... like, technically, yes? But also wtf?
Anyway. Sindarin doesn't have a clear equivalent that I can see...
(Also nís is sometimes níssë - still singular, means exactly the same thing, idfk why)
Can 2025 maybe be the year we as a fandom finally stop using the term 'she-elf', which was invented for the Jackson movies and comes across as intentionally derogatory?
Tolkien himself referred to female elves as 'women' or 'elven-women' or similar.
Ah yes, the Seven Genocidal Sons of Feanor -
Helen of Troy, Beyoncé, Bear Grylls, Scrooge McDuck, Nikola Tesla and the Grady twins
Whoever mentioned a post about going to war and meeting Maglor is like going to war and meeting Beyoncé, I love you lmao- Now consider, going to war and meeting Maedhros, which is basically like going to war and meeting the world's top super-model✨
