// Hey, guys. I’m sorry about this but I don’t think that I’m going to return to this blog.
I’ve had my doubts writing Ratbag, but today it’s come to my attention that I don’t really give him the depth I tried to. So I’m shelving this blog. Sorry about this.

Ratbag and corpses.
Considering how much he likes to loot from the dead, he should consider switching to a marauder tribe. :D
( Yes, I understand that he steals out of necessity. He’s just so happy in those moments. it’s funny! )

the last Orc in the world, lonely like that whale singing at just the wrong frequency, more than several hundreds of years old.
He does not remember being an Elf. He does not because his parents had long forgotten how to be one by the time they had him. Darkness has never been anything but a comfort, cold as it might be, and carries no different memory.
Wandering through the busy streets, everything is too bright. There are neon signs full of eyes looking down on him, that at least familiar. Everything moves so fast it blurs at last. His people had no word for century. Cannon fodder only needs to count from 3 2 1 FIRE --
they fell before the sword.
They all fell before their swords, and were gone by the time weapons were invented that could have finished them faster. Gone, then forgotten at last. Everyone but he who escaped, came back to die after.
and found his face was now too unfamiliar to inspire fear, the enemy too to unlike how they had been to fight. As foreign to them as the Elves would be, united with old enemies at last, lost, alone yet not even remarked upon. His eyes move yellow in the dark. A driver curses until he moves out of the way.

Talion: - …Yes.
I’m just in awe of his self-confidence … or folly :D it seems he is already used to taking away the glory of a ranger and does not even notice it.

I’ve needed to draw my Uruk boooooy!
And what better reason than MerMay?! I’ve always been partial to eels, especially the New Zealand longfin eel who are equal parts friendly and mysterious. And resilient beyond imagination, which certainly fits Ratbag!

◙ I had a dream that Warner’s released a Shadow of War film and Ratbag was among of the main characters, but his voice sounded younger and apparently he liked the read?

uruking:
@mightyviciousologsfriend said: “How’re ya not *frozen*?” asked the shivering Uruk runt; Ratbag pulled the animal fur cloak tighter across his chest, squinting in another gust of chilled wind.
the WIND of the misty mountains must STING against the uruk’s skin / the bitter COLD a welcome sensation, on azog’s part. for these mountains are his HOME— & the home of his father before him. the cold runs in his blood, so it does little to CHILL the pale orc. however, he turns to glance DOWN at his companion, remarking the shivering thing silently for a moment.
❝ mountain my home. ❞ he says simply, reaching down to snatch the little orc by the scruff. ratbag is pulled up & onto the warg’s back, pulled close & pressed back against azog. ❝ you get used to it. ❞
◙ Seemed fair, he supposed. Maybe the great white Orc being born— or at least however Orcs got their immense numbers in Dol Guldor; certainly not like the vats in Mordor— and bred in the mountains make him all the more used to the frigid winds and solid ground powdered white with snow.
“Reckon that— hnng!” Ratbag gave a start as he felt the ground fall beneath his feet; though he ought to be used to it by now, shouldn’t he? And no sooner did the Uruk runt feel the great Orc’s chest against his back that he quickly realized how little the cold seeped through a sudden flush across his face.
Guess that was one way to solve that problem.
Ratbag cleared his throat. “Reckon that makes sense,” he grinned with a snaggle-toothed smile. “S’it get as hot as Mordor any places ‘round ‘ere?” The Uruk runt hadn’t scouted out areas beyond Azog’s hold-- and Mordor, of course.
