– ‘ sand of treasure. ‘
{ – Lips parted into a long and very drawn out yawn. The man was laying upon his back facing towards the warm sun of the desert. Surrounded by sand dunes and decaying pyramids. Statues of long gone pharaohs. Leg dangled off the edge of the makeshift lift he lay upon. Something to give height to the archaeologist who traveled with the company in order to get a better view of research. Fili, Durin son as they called him, acted as a body guard that day. Many other members of the company having their tasks for the day. Fili wasn’t exactly the smartest amongst them, but he definitely had an interest in such things. Having only been raised in a small mountain town growing up, he was excited to see the world.
Many asked why Egypt? He certainly couldn’t answer. Having jumped at the very first mention of travel by their historian Gandalf. No care where they went only that they were going. Later having found out Thorin was after some very particular jewels that were rumored to be hiding amongst the sands. The young man had heard many rumors of this place. And everything it held. From stories of mummification, to the royal family that saw a downfall over a chancellor having fallen in love and betrayal. Sounded like a made up story to Fili but, it did have his ear to say the least.
There were mutterings of others as he turned head to see his uncle arguing with Bilbo. A man they had brought with them to act as a sort of, burglar? He wasn’t truly understanding of what exactly it meant but, it kept his uncle busy and off of his trail which is all he cared about. Groaning as he sat up cursing himself over laying for so long amongst rotting wood. Patting the other harshly upon the back he gave a faint laugh, ‘ i need a break. keep up the good work, ‘ with that he had jumped from the standing and landed upon the hard sand on the ground beneath.
Only now hearing the full extent of the mutterings of his companions Kili, his younger brother, called from the distance. Another family had arrived. A family with, alot of money. A very tall blond dapper man with piercing eyes. Followed by a younger copy of himself, a son, and a woman. A woman with hair so fiery pulled up into curls, it almost took his breath away. Blue eyes staring for far too long Fili found himself clearing his throat before reaching a hand out, ‘ Fili. At your service ma’am, ‘ he didn’t know why just yet they were there, but boy was he excited to find out.
It felt like another world between the sands and pyramids. So used to the lush green of their forest, the woman felt as out of place as one could be. The pit of excitement in her stomach reminded her that she had insisted upon this venture, and Thranduil had only agreed upon finding out his rivals were after some sort of treasure. Tauriel, was more excited learning about the history, to uncover the secrets she had found in that dusty book in the library.
Her eyes flicker upwards when a voice greets her, and golden hair and bright eyes are charmingly staring at her. Her cheeks flushed more, if possible and she reached forward to take his hand. “Tauriel…Thank you” She could hear the clearing of Legolas’s throat when her hand remained intertwined with his for a few seconds more than proper, and she pulled back.
“Ah- Fili was it?” Flame-colored brows pinch together, and a cunning smile appears on her lips. “You all look rather...prepared” She noted, it seemed they had quite a few...brawny men in their company. “Expecting a fight?” She taunted softly, realizing that out of everyone, Fili had truly been the only one to approach her. Perhaps he wasn’t as superstitious as others. Or perhaps he was waiting for the correct time to say that this was no place for a woman.
Either way, she briefly surveyed the rest of the people around them. “Who knows. Maybe you know something we don’t”

“You’ve been sitting quietly for far too long. Tell me. When did doilies and your mother’s dishes become so important to you? I remember a young hobbit who was always running off in search of Elves in the woods. He’d stay out late, come home after dark, trailing mud and twigs and fireflies. A young hobbit who would’ve liked nothing better than to find out what was beyond the borders of the Shire. The world is not in your books and maps. It’s out there.”
The Hobbit Trilogy (2012-2014), dir. Peter Jackson

“A few sleepless nights will not bring me down” Despite Legolas having a point, she was sure that a good rest would clear up the fog that seemed to be in her head. Not only towards her duty, but among a few other personal things that were rolling around in her head.
Legolas’ hand was warm against her back, and Tauriel felt her gaze flicker towards him for a brief moment before they turned towards the guard. “Your faith is what gives me the strength to go on” She mused softly towards him, shaking her head once he mentioned his father.
“Then we should take a few days rest before be set out again, and bring the conversation up with him. I doubt either of us will be much use if we are tired....” Tauriel motioned for them to head back, turning to cast another glance at him. “Perhaps a few sips of wine will help, no?”

disney’s brave … sentence starters
“It’s just my bow!“
“I want my freedom!“
“Oh, that’s attractive.“
“I’ll never be like you.”
“It’ll do the trick, dearie.”
“No weapons on the table!“
“I think we should lay a trap.“
“Calm down, lass. What is it?“
“Go back to avenging your leg.“
“I just wanted her to change… you.“
“I’m not doing any of this to hurt you.“
“Don’t you dare loose another arrow!”
“I didn’t pick her out. It was your idea.”
“But it’s my life, it’s… I’m just not ready.“
“I want a spell that will change my fate.”
“I ask you, what do you expect us to do?“
“It’s marriage, it’s not the end of the world.”
“That scaffy witch gave me a gammy spell!”
“But we can’t just run away from who we are.“
“None of your sons are fit to marry my daughter!“
“You are a princess. I expect you to act like one.”
“Come out! Come on out! I’m coming to get you!“
“I’m not a witch! Too many unsatisfied customers.”
“I don’t want my life to be over. I want my freedom!“
“I am (name), and I’ll be shooting for my own hand!”
“You never conjure where you carve; very important.“
“A princess should not have weapons, in my opinion.“
“I’m sorry. This is all my fault. I did this to you… to us.“
“If you could just try to see what I do, I do out of love.“
“A princess does not place her weapons on the table.“
“I think I could make you understand if you would just…“
“If you had the chance to change your fate, would you?”
“Where are you, you little rascal? I’m coming to get you!“
“It’s not my fault. I didn’t ask her to change you into a bear!“
“But are you willing to pay the price your freedom will cost?“
“Leave her be! Princess or not, learning to fight is essential.“
“Fate be changed, look inside. Mend the bond torn by pride.“
“Can I shoot an arrow? Can I, can I, can I, can I? Please, can I?”
“You fought for each other. You risked everything for each other.“
“You’ve always been there for me. You’ve never given up on me.”
“They get away with murder! I can never get away with anything!“
“Our fate lives within us. You only have to be brave enough to see it.“
“It’s the one thing we search for, or fight to change. Some never find it.“

“It was an alliance forged in bravery and friendship, and it lives to this day.“
“I didn’t ask her to change you into a bear, I just wanted her to change you.“
“Some say our destiny is tied to the land, as much a part of us as we are of it.“
“This whole marriage is what you want! Do you ever bother to ask what I want?“
“Enunciate. You must be understood from anywhere in the room, or it’s all for naught!“
“I understand this must all seem unfair. Even I had reservations when I faced betrothal.“
“Our kingdom is young; our stories are not yet legends, but in them, our bond was struck.“
“There’s no one to blame but me. And I know now that I need to amend my mistake, and mend our bond.“
“There are those who say fate is something beyond our command, that destiny is not our own, but I know better.”
“I’m the princess. I’m the example. I’ve got duties, responsibilities, expectations. My whole life is planned out.“
“I don’t want to get married! I want to stay single, and let my hair flow in the wind as I ride through the glen, firing arrows into the sunset!”
“A princess does not chortle, doesn’t stuff her gob, rises early, is compassionate, patient, cautious, clean, and above all, a princess strives for, well, perfection.“
“But every once in a while, there’s a day when I don’t have to be a princess. No lessons, no expectations. A day where anything can happen. A day I can change my fate.“

tauriel | for @riversongz
It is our fight. It will not end here. With every victory this evil will grow. If your father has his way, we will do nothing. We will hide within our walls, live our lives away from the light and let darkness descend. Are we are not part of this world? Tell me, Mellon, when did we let evil become stronger than us?

At his question, Tauriel stalled in her pacing. The leaves plucked from her hair and she lifted her gaze to his. “Careful, you might get some dirt on you” She teased, grateful he had spotted them before they approached the rest of the guard. “Perhaps four days ago” Tauriel had been restless, devising plan and path to ensure the spiders remained away from their home, but they still lurked in the shadows of the forest.
Perhaps the king would listen to Legolas, he after all had a first had account at the numbers they were facing. Tauriel turned, looking at the rest of the guard just beyond the brush. “They are tired....They deserve to go home and see their families” Despite how deeply she wished they could push on, even in her anger, Tauriel could feel that she was not the only one who needed a few days rest.
At his comment on following her lead, a small smirk flickered onto her lips. “Careful, I just might lead us into a trap” She teased, motioning for him to start their trek back home. “Let us ask your father for permission to venture further into the woods, they must have a larger nest”

@woodlandarcher asked : ❝ The way forward is sometimes the way back. ❞
A fiery display of frustration crosses her face, the weapon in her hand twisted until it is staked into the ground. Tauriel turns, a quick pace before she swivels again to face him. Ever so calm, Legolas speaks wisdom she has no patience for. “We’ve made no headway on the spiders...backwards does not seem the correct path”
Her anger is not towards him, rather herself. Tauriel felt as if she was not upholding the duties placed on her. How could she project their people if they were always falling behind? Her back settles against the trunk of the tree, a frown on her lips. “Forward or back, your father will have my head if I do not report some type of good news.”
Tracking the spiders, finding the smaller nests, it all was exhausting. Even now, Tauriel felt uneasy on her feet. The sleepless nights, the long days, they were slowly wearing on her. Fingers brush tangled strands of fox-colored hair.
“I feel as if I have no where else to go”

LABYRINTH → the sentence meme
Below you will find quotes taken directly or paraphrased from the movie 'Labyrinth'. You know, the one starring David Bowie's bulge. Send in one of the following to see how my muse reacts:
❝ I ask for so little. ❞
❝ Just let me rule you, and you can have everything that you want. ❞
❝ Just fear me, love me - do as I say and I will be your slave.❞
❝ You remind me of the babe. ❞
❝ That’s not fair! ❞
❝ Give me the child. ❞
❝ You say that so often, I wonder what your basis for comparison is? ❞
❝ I have been generous up ‘til now; I can be cruel. ❞
❝ You cowered before me, I was frightening. ❞
❝ I have reordered time; I have turned this world upside down, and I have done it all for you! ❞
❝ I am exhausted from living up to your expectations. ❞
❝ Isn’t that generous? ❞
❝ Your mother is a fraggin’ aardvark! ❞
❝ Everything I’ve done, I’ve done for you. ❞
❝ I move the stars for no one. ❞
❝ Your eyes can be so cruel. ❞
❝ If she ever kisses you, I’ll turn you into a prince. ❞
❝ If he ever kisses you, I’ll turn you into a princess. ❞
❝ You’re him, aren’t you? ❞
❝ You’re her, aren’t you? ❞
❝ My will is as strong as yours, and my kingdom as great. ❞
❝ You have no power over me. ❞
❝ How you turn my world, you precious thing. ❞
❝ Well then, come on, which way? ❞
❝ Which way do you want to go, hm? ❞
❝ Was that wrong? ❞
❝ I’ve brought you a gift. ❞
❝ But if you turn it this way and look into it, it will show you your dreams. ❞
❝ In nine hours and twenty-three minutes…you’ll be mine. ❞
❝ Where you goin’ with a head like that? ❞
❝ No, I said ‘allo’, but that’s close enough. ❞
❝ It’s only forever, not long at all. ❞
❝ All right then, throw down your weapons, and I’ll see that you’re well-treated. ❞
❝ Don’t tell me truth hurts, because it hurts like hell. ❞
❝ No one can blame you for walking away. ❞
❝ I don’t know why, but every now and again in my life - for no reason at all - I need you. ❞
❝ The way forward is sometimes the way back. ❞
❝ It’s very rude to stare! ❞
❝ What did you have to go and do a thing like that for? ❞
❝ What’d you expect fairies to do? ❞
❝ What’s the matter, my dear, don’t like your toys? ❞
❝ There’s such a sad love, deep in your eyes. ❞
❝ I’ll place the sky within your eyes. ❞
❝ What kind of magic spell to use? ❞
❝ I’ll paint you mornings of gold. ❞
❝ I’ll spin you Valentine evenings. ❞
❝ I’ll be there for you as the world falls down. ❞
❝ We’re choosing the path between the stars. ❞
❝ I’ll leave my love between the stars. ❞
❝ How you turned my world, you precious thing. ❞
❝ You starve and near exhaust me. ❞
❝ I do believe in you. ❞
❝ I live without the sunlight. ❞
❝ I love without your heartbeat. ❞
❝ I can’t live within you. ❞
