Fan design for Dorris from the Soul Eater fic Bet On Me (chp 56) by @randomkidstarfic !! Dorris instantly stole my heart so I wanted to give her a design. I hope I did her justice!

That C.S. Lewis quote says friendship is about meeting someone and going, "You, too? I thought I was the only one," but I think Tolkien's portrayal of Legolas and Gimli provides an important corollary, where friendship can be about, "You like that?"

Lewis tends to portray friendship as two people bonding in a shared interest over something, and only then getting to know each other as people. His descriptions of friendship in The Four Loves (at least in his lecture version that I listened to) sound a lot like fandom friendships. But they're not the only kind of friendships, and I like that Tolkien shows us that the reverse can also happen.

Legolas and Gimli have very different interests. They're from totally different cultures that don't much like each other. Each one loves environments that the other one finds creepy and terrifying. Before Helm's Deep, Legolas talks about how much he hates being surrounded by stone, while Gimli loves it. But after they bond at Helm's Deep, Legolas finds himself interested when Gimli waxes poetic about the beauty of the caves beneath it. He's like, "I don't get why you like that, but you make it sound awesome, so I'll try it." His respect for Gimli as a person made him willing to expand his horizons to share his interests. Friends can find connection, not just because of their similarities, but because of their differences. And I think it's really cool that Tolkien portrayed that.
