most important part of the writing process actually is when you loop a single song on max volume and stare at the word document and imagine the characters doing things for 14 hours. this is known as getting in the zone

Beautiful Elrond 🥰

Honestly bizarre that tomatoes get all the flack for “not being a vegetable” because they're technically a fruit when:

A) There are a ton of fruits that get categorised as vegetables. Like this also applies to pumpkins, squashes and cucumbers.

B) The fucking mushrooms are standing there at the back of the crowd in this witch trial, trying to look inconspicuous because they somehow got into the vegetable club with no fucking controversy despite the fact that they're not even plants.

elrond has to be the prettiest creature living in middle earth

so cute, so fluff

All I want for Christmas is to lie in a meadow and have Elrond read me poetry whilst I run my fingers through his curls. That's not too much to ask, is it?!

everyone talking about what they want sauron to do in s3 (ok that is my fault for obsessively reading #sauron) but i just want gandalf to join the storyline and meet elrond and galadriel now. they are besties and i cant wait to see that develop. also i want to see rivendell and lothlorien flourish - im very curious how that happens in an abbreviated timeline.

like will they be super sus of another maiar in their midsts? will there be hobbits?

I love the fix-its. I love the AUs. I love the missing moments. I love the canon compliants. I love the canon divergents. I love the drabbles. I love the song-fics. I love the crack fics. I love the smut fics. I love the crossovers.

Here to report that My Lady Jane is just…the best kind of fanfiction that you could make into a TV show.

It’s a shifter AU, arranged marriage, friends-to-lovers, 100K slow burn, canon major character death fix-it fic but with a big budget and a soundtrack and excellent costumes where everyone committed to the bit.

I do recommend.

i do have to respect that everyone was like "bridgerton is the most cheerfully historically inaccurate horny on main period drama romance show with a very anachronistic soundtrack to be released in 2024" and my lady jane was evidently like "bet"

Happy birthday to AO3

[bookishmusings]

Happy Black Cat Appreciation Day!

Honestly felt super satisfying as a long time fan to see the movie with the reveal at the end. Everything in the show has been dragged out so much and made so complicated that it’s become sort of off-putting. But the movie really pulled me into the characters again and made everything better.

all ao3 jokes aside, let’s all give thanks to the wonderful volunteers that are working hard to get the site back up and running so that homebodies like us don’t become stir crazy.
