adar.

     His precious? Something stolen or lost in the process of capturing and bringing him here, Thranduil suspected. It was unfortunate, that. Anything to make his stay less painful for both Gollum and those tasked to watch over him in person would have been most appreciated. He had accepted this task from Mithrandir on goodwill, but it was proving to be far more troublesome than expected.

     ❝Perhaps he has spent too much time under mountains.❞ He watched Legolas as he spoke, gesturing as he did to all the stone around them. His Halls were no dark tunnels under great wild mountains, but given Gollum’s state, he doubted unending captivity within them would help. ❝I wonder if, given some small liberties, his disposition might change.❞

It was surely undoubtedly true that Gollum had spent too much time under mountains, Legolas thought - he was pallid and gaunt, as a creature who has not been drunk in the light of day in far too long. It took Legolas another moment, however, to understand his father’s meaning - but when he did, he looked up, thoughtful. Though as he understood it it was entirely Gollum’s own fault for remaining under stone, Legolas certainly would not want to be so trapped by rock and darkness. It could be true that a foul heart might be made lighter when bared to the open sky and the sweet smell of leaves.

“You suggest taking him outside?” he asked, folding his arms as he looked back to his father. “At the very least his curses would not echo so. And I do not suppose that he would be so difficult to watch - he has a strange strength for one so small, but no match for a pair of guards. If he were carefully watched...I don’t suppose it could do any harm.”

"Ada?" Asta was standing by her father's knee, looking up at him adoringly. "How did you and Nana meet?"

     “Now that is quite the tale, pinig.” A fond smile, every bit as      adoring as his daughter’s, as he picked her up and balanced      her on his lap. “It was not a conventional meeting.”

     He was not entirely sure it was the sort of thing a young child     would understand, but he doubted there was any harm in the     telling. “It was after a battle. I was paying my respects to the      fallen when I saw your mother there, doing her own duty to     the dead. It was not the first time I had glimpsed her - always     after battles, just a flash of a woman, always gone the next     moment. I called out to her, and she came to me. I was very     curious about who she was and why she was there, and you     know, I think she was curious about me as well. We spoke on     the battlefield for a while.”

     He paused, running a gentle hand over his daughter’s hair. “And     the next time we met, it was not during battle. I didn’t know if I     were ever to see her again, but she sought me out in the woods.     I suppose it must have been my wit and charm.” This last was     said with a teasing smile and a mischievous eye.

"Well there's no arrow in my face yet. If I didn't know any better I'd say you're warming up to me."

     “Is that your general standard for friendship? I think      you may want to raise the bar a little, rohir.”

She saw herself as a shadow; secretly dancing in silence                         and chasing his footsteps in the dark.

He saw her as sunshine; her light hair glittering as she twirls around, radiating all the brightness in the world                                    right beside him

Send “Amortentia” for what smells my character associates with yours.@elfsighted

Middle Earth - 

Old worn leather, the sweet smell that comes after the rain, the sharp crispness of freshly fallen snow (it was snowing the first time they met, collecting in his hair as he stood on the field and called to her), the elvish version of soap, the smell of the flowers native to the forests - the ones he seemed to enjoy making into crowns for them to wear, the metallic tang of blood, she musk of his horse. 

Modern -

Freshly cut wood, the hydrangeas he keeps in the box outside his window, the barely there smell of his shampoo, smoke from a crackling fire, coffee, the smell of his house (which she can’t explain what it is, although it feels a little like home).

vigilemusmortuis’ official updated bias list because yolo

i haven’t hit a milestone or anything, just thought these people needed some love for being great writers and friends. i cannot believe you’re all still here and really don’t understand why. sorry not sorry. apologies for the long post.

“ IF I LOVED YOU… THEN I WOULD LOVE YOU IN ANY WAY THAT I COULD “ ;

@reversengineering – “… and if we could not touch, then i would draw strength from your beauty, and is i went blind then i would fill my soul with the sound of your voice and the contents of your thoughts until the last spark of my love for you lit the shabby darkness of my dying mind.” just so you’re still clear that i’m a gay know-it-all.

i don’t think i need to say this, but you are the very centre of my world. i don’t know what i’d do without you. i existed before without you, but now i don’t know how i could ever go back to that. as a writer, i’ve learned lots from you. seriously. look back at my old writing and (some of) my writing now and tell me we don’t have 10000% more chemistry. and now, as a girlfriend… i’m actual trash for you. remember that spongebob meme i sent you where spongebob is like ‘what do you normally do when i’m gone?’ and patrick is all, ‘wait for you to get back’? because that’s literally me. with ned and joe, with you. i miss you every second of the day and i can’t wait until the day i can just be there again – but this time, forever. i love you, beautiful girl.

“ YOU MADE ME LOVE A RAINY DAY AGAIN “ ;

@morpheoussilvercreature – holy damn, clare. if i’m not mistaken you’re actually my oldest follower on this blog presently. i don’t know why you’ve stuck around this long, but i’ve enjoyed pretty much every freaking minute. i’m so glad for all of our verses and all of the angst and the fluff and the b A  BY HELP ME I CAN’T THINK ABOUT NED PINCHING ITS LITTLE TOES ??? and you just deserve a lot more love than i regularly give you. stay awesome !

@wildlypicturesque – i really want to write something nice here but i can’t because all i can think to talk about is how pissed i am that ned and louisa are ruining our lives and it’s not okay. also about how one of them is going to die one day and cause the other SEVERE ANGST I CANNOT WAIT BECAUSE I AM TRASH :) :) :) :) :) :) :) kidding. mostly. not about causing you angst for my own amusement though, that’s happening. ilu!

@ichoosesam / @amarematrxm – do i even have to write this???? the answer is yes of course but i’m too busy sobbing all over my laptop about our nerds. i know we both have a tendency to take 80 years with a reply but i want you to know yours are always worth the wait. my one complaint to you is actually that i don’t get to talk to you out of character as much anymore so what the fuck is that please come love me again asap i miss you

@whatsthepoop – please. as if you didn’t know you’d be on this list. first and foremost i have to apologize because i feel like i’ve been a bit of a shitty partner in recent months, and i want you to know i’m sorry. i keep losing muse for a lot of my threads and i don’t know why a lot of them are always ours. also i owe you a starter and i can’t remember what it was, so i should probably get to that. just know that despite the distance in our writing relationship, you are loved and you are fantastic!

@justagutfeeling / @tenaciousiisms – i don’t know how many blogs i’ve written with you on, but there isn’t a single one i want to complain about. i miss writing with you and i’m really glad we’re friends outside of our writing lives too, because hot damn i miss the space gays. bring that shit back. theo, you rock bby!

@itsnotmyrealname – you’re one of only two people i have followed since my days as john watson. let’s think about that. do you realize that was three years ago? i can’t even begin to tell you what your friendship means to me. you’re one of the only followers i have where despite the fact that we no longer write together, we still chit chat now and then, and it means a lot. it never feels to me like we’ve grown apart, and every time i hear/see/read about you and your boyfriend it puts a smile on my face. i am so glad you’re happy with him and i wish you guys all the best. p.s., get back in my life. expect a message demanding details and updates from me soon.

@rocksxlt – it only feels fair to put you just after natalia, because you’re the second of two people i’ve been following since my john days. i can’t believe it’s been that long. what are you still doing here? oh, i remember. causing angst accidentally and breaking my heart, obviously. ‘violet’ and ‘satan’ share one letter so obviously you’re out to get me. thanks, jerk. (i’m kidding. you’re gr8)

@lostgirllucy / all other blogs – i’m pretty sure you have more muses than i have friends, but that’s okay. i actually naturally assume now that whenever i get another follower, it’s you, which i would be 100% alright with because you are amazing. i adore you, i adore the originality of your muses, and i’m so glad we interact!

@hispinkandyellowhuman – sunshine, you don’t know this, but you were one of the things that made it easier for me to come out to my parents about Allie and i dating, it took a while, but i got there. i thought long and hard about how you and sarah have this amazing life together, like something from a storybook, and how it’s everything i could possibly hope to have one day for my own girlfriend and i. so despite the fact that we no longer write together, i want you to know that i deeply, deeply appreciate you and i wish you all the best. also, thanks for putting up with my shitty writing since TJ. i’m still emotional, you asshat.

THE PIE-HOLERS ; ( don’t interact as much / new followers / want to get to know you better )

apologies for my lack of activity on legolas recently, guys!! steven universe started airing again this past week, so i’ve been hella active on my pearl. (for those of you who follow steven universe: yes, mr. greg broke me and now i am dead.) anyway, i promise to be back on legolas soon once the hype has burned down!

miston.

Miston looked at the other from the corners of his eyes, thinking about what had just been said. He understood the hint- oh boy, did he ever. But was it okay to say so?

“Same.” he said softly, carefully even. This was something he still didn’t find easy to admit, just like with his emotions.

“Yeah?” Some of the tension eased out of Legolas; it was a surprise to hear Miston admit it - he certainly hadn’t assumed - but it made him breathe a little easier, too. If Miston ever bullied him, at least it wouldn’t be for that reason. 

Legolas looked down, playing with the frayed edges of one of the couch pillows. “Those guys you chased off? That’s part of why they bullied me at school.” He gave a wry smile. “’Cause of what they assumed about my sexuality. They just happened to be right.”

     “Is that a halfling saying? It is wise.”

      Legolas shifted, kneeling so that he was at eye-level with the       elderly Hobbit. “Even so, I mean what I say, Master Baggins. I       shall do all that I can to protect your nephew. Though if he is      anything like his uncle, then I should not worry overmuch about      him.”
