#personally I am of the friends who were PINING TM for each other #I think it makes it more tragic #especially if they were a hair away from confessing every other minute and one of them was like okay I’ll do it today!! #and then Xue yang happens #and xxc is like wow!!! I need to fix this now! I can’t confess to him when he just lost his whole family and eyes (x)

Feanor x Nerdanel + 9,kiss prompt?

9. in public

Mahtan's daughter is no great beauty.

That's alright. She has other things to be getting on with.

Nerdanel is going to be a master of her craft. This is something she has known for a very long time - almost as far back as she can remember. The need to create is an ache that burns from somewhere deep within her. It's the force that pushes her out of bed in the middle of the night to recreate the images from her dreams, the gift that lets her give shape to a thought, an idea, an emotion.

What does a fair face matter? Nerdanel is a artist.

So Nerdanel never grows tall, and her body becomes stocky and compact from carrying stone and clay, cushioned with a layer of fat that never quite melts away. So she keeps her hair cut to chin length, all the better for keeping it out of her face when she works. So her hands and arms are scattered with nicks and burns, and her palms are raw or callused, depending on the day. So her hair and clothes are coated in a fine layer of dust, more often than not. It's all fine. Nerdanel wrings all the beauty she needs from her hands.

The only slight problem is him. Fëanáro.

Because Fëanáro is a great beauty - the greatest, perhaps, and not just according to Nerdanel. The first time she sees him in person, come to learn from her father, she thinks - I have to sculpt him.

She does just that, though not immediately. It takes many more such visits of Fëanáro to her father's house, followed by journeys across the nearby lands together, and hushed conversations in the pale early hours; just the two of them. It takes a recognition of the same burning desire to leave the world a more beautiful place than they found it that lives in them both before she can truly draw his likeness out of the stone.

She shows it to Fëanáro when she is certain that it's right, and he gazes upon his own likeness for several long minutes, and retreats to his forge.

When he emerges, it's with a ring.

So Nerdanel doesn't doubt that Fëanáro loves her. She is not somebody especially given to self-doubt, after all. Still, it would be nice not to have to hear the whispers about Fëanáro's dreadfully plain bethrothed. They're not especially quiet whispers, after all.

Even those whispers aren't so terrible, though, when Fëanáro kisses her in full view of his fellow Aulendili, at the dinner parties of the Lambengolmor, on the steps of his father's great palace in Tirion. Fëanáro doesn't think they are ill-matched - he knows, as she knows, that they are moulded out of the same earth.

Ciarán Hinds as Roger Mortimer in Edward II | Royal Shakespeare Company (1990) 

Ciarán Hinds’ Mortimer is a most formidable, frightening presence. To become a full-blown fuhrer, this supercilious gauleiter needs only to add a little black fur on the upper lip to his slicked-down hair and bony face. A performance that could be ousted from the memory only by a genuinely extraordinary one - The Times

#this is literally exactly why reader inserts do nothing for me (x)

to be honest there has never been a fictional character i’ve actually wanted to date. like. i want them to date each other. i don’t want myself as a person to be involved in this scenario whatsoever. what would i add to this narratively? what’s my thematic purpose in the narrative? immersion breaking.

My reasons for doing things:

1. Spite 2. The Aesthetic

That’s it.

honestly sort of camp to refer to a famously queer book as "straight" and then suggest to instead read a worse version for children. "if you liked tales of the city, try heartstopper!" girl don't piss me off

Ch 11, on LXC dealing with MXY's unexpected appearance:

Lan XiChen proved himself worthy of being the leader of a sect. Even as he saw Wei WuXian embracing a donkey, he did not appear to be affected at all.

Ch 47, on JGY dealing with MXY's unexpected appearance:

Wei WuXian remembered that earlier on, during their encounter in the square, Jin GuangYao looked as though nothing had happened. The way that he conversed so politely made him seem as if he didn’t even know who Mo XuanYu was. Wei WuXian couldn’t help but approve of his skills.
