Curufin gets another update ~
Tumblr media
Wanted to sketch out his whole outfit this time....after all Curufin the Crafty is also Curufinwë Atarinkë . (AKA established by canon top-tier hottie like daddy dearest)
So I honestly imagine this guy walking around in stuff even more flamboyant than this.
(peep Caranthir in the back...will be posting a design update next week...👀)

Curufin the crafty 🌟⚒️
It's been a hot while since I drew Fëanor 2.0. so while I was at it I updated his outfit.
Take a guess, what's he thinking about? 👀

💫 RULES 💫
Tumblr media
So as I've been getting quite a few asks surrounding what type of stories I write and what the general rules are, I decided to address it here!
----------------------------------------------
💔 I do not write anything NSFW. So please don't request anything of that sort.
🩷 I do enjoy adding a bit of teasing and flirty behaviors when requested/fitting so that is totally fine! It's perfectly alright to ask for romantic stories.
💔 I do not write gore/explicit violence as we've got more than enough of that here on earth already.
🩷 I do write angst with and without comfort as requested. If you wanna experience heartbreak & angst without the commitment, I'm your gal.
💔 I currently do not write character x character as my writing primarily focuses on character x reader.
🩷 I do write for most silmarillion characters such as the Fëanorians, Fingolfinians, Finarfinians and the like. When in doubt; drop an ask. 🌸
💔 I do not write about abuse or other such things as these are triggering to a lot of people. It might be mentioned as a backstory but I'll always add a warning!
🩷 I do write stories in all kinds of settings such as reader in middle earth or elves dropped in modern times and much more. I think it's a fun challenge to think of ways they might react and go about things!
-----------------------------------------------
I hope this clears up any questions! If I've missed anything feel free to drop an ask and I'll modify this post!
Writing requests are open! 🌱🌸

Do you write about Maedhors, Aegnor, Lindir, Beleg Cuthalion, Gwindor?
Hi there!
Out of these I write for Maedhros, Aegnor, Beleg and Gwindor. I don't write for Lindir as he's not from the silm.
Thank you for your ask! 🌸

Fingon the Valiant 💙
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Felt like drawing Fingon again. Missed drawing his hair 😌
Learning to draw with colored pencil only~
(believe it or not it's quite challenging since everything has to be drawn correct from the start.....)

Carrots make a strange bouquet
Tumblr media
Maedhros x reader
Prompt: May I ask for a fluffy fic or headcanon, whichever is easier? Perhaps a young Maedhros back in Valinor attempting to court reader for the first time and he's a bit nervous about approaching due to his massive crush. Thank you in advance 🌻
Requested by @a-contemplation-upon-flowers
A/n: I attempted something fluffy and a little awkward to better portray his first-time-confessing jitters. It's a bit shorter than I'd like to deliver but I hope you like it!
Word count: 900 Warnings: none :)
Tumblr media
Maedhros has been pacing around his room for the past two hours. He has something of great importance on his mind. This thing of great importance, would be you. For the past 50 years he has grown extremely attached to you. A fondness has grown in his heart. Like the lovely blooms in spring, these feelings are now waiting to unfurl. He just doesn't know how to breach the subject to you, let alone approach you confidently.
He huffs in annoyance, an emotion not often seen in him. He slams the paper back onto his desk and turns his back to it. It was a poem, he wrote it as a way to confess his love to you. Maglor advised him to do so. However after writing the poem, and reading it a few hundred times, it just doesn't seem to suffice anymore. Not at all actually. So he stops his pacing and changes his course towards the garden. He knows exactly who he is looking for to help him with this issue.
He races down the large staircase, nearly knocking one of his brothers off the stairs. A string of curses is hurled at him, but he doesn't hear it nor is he interested in hearing them. He has more important things to attend to.
"Ammë? How can I confess my feelings to them? I've been fond of them for quite some time now." He sits in the cabbage patch his mother cultivated. Prodding at an innocent cabbage rather absentmindedly. Nerdanel has quite the expansive garden, full of vegetables, fruits and even cutting flowers. It's close to the first harvest season, many things can be harvested already.
Nerdanel looks back at him over her shoulder and chuckles. "Maitimo, I think the best way to confess to them is to simply do it. I have seen the way they look at you, I am certain your feelings will be returned." Maedhros frowns for a moment and a light blush washes over his cheeks. Just the thought of having to approach you with this makes his stomach feel like he swallowed a beehive.
He is momentarily shaken out of his stupor when his mother asks him to collect some strawberries, and afterwards to check which carrots can be harvested. Nerdanel planted an early harvest variety, Yavanna had given her some of the newest seeds her maiar had cultivated in the previous seasons.
Maedhros trots over to the carrot patch, his nerves are getting the best of him in this moment. Despite the fair weather and the bright light of laurelin he still walks with heavy steps, as if he has lead tied to his legs. He is completely unaware of what is happening around him.
You were on your way back from the market and remembered that you had gotten an invitation from Nerdanel to come view some of her newest plants. The both of you had bonded quickly from the moment you met. You both enjoyed the arts and had a fondness for gardening. You smile and change your direction to the Fëanorian household instead. Curious to maybe see more than just the newest plants. Perhaps you'd catch a glimpse of Maedhros there too!
When you arrived you heard two familiar voices in the garden. Nerdanel's and that of Maedhros. You stop and hide behind one of the jasmine bushes. You know very well that eavesdropping is not exactly considered good manners, unfortunately your curiosity has overthrown your sense of reason in this moment.
Who are they talking about...?
You didn't catch whom they spoke of and decided that it would be better to simply make your presence known. You glanced up towards an oak tree that stood close to the road. Hearing a heavy rustle of leaves on a windless day. You were brought up properly after all, not dragged, unlike some people. These people appear to enjoy eavesdropping from oak trees.
You shake your head and walk out of your hiding spot. Walking towards Nerdanel and maedhros. Maedhros is sitting with his back towards you, he appears to be busy with the carrots. You greet Nerdanel, who seems to be surprised at your visit. Maedhros doesn't seem to hear you at all. Lost in his own thoughts, mumbling about something.
You talk with Nerdanel for a moment, attempting to figure out how that invitation came to you in the first place. Maedhros finally snaps out of his musings. "Ammë, I think I am going to visit y/n. I must tell them of my feelings before they consume me entirely!" He gets up to leave and turns around, still bent over, now nearly nose to nose with you.
His eyes widen in shock, the realization dawning on him that you heard his plan. More importantly overheard his feelings for you in such a flat way, no romance at all! His throat felt like it was being stitched closed. He could only stare at you with a wild blush on his face.
"I......don't think I've ever received a bouquet of carrots as a courting gift before....?" you say, trying to suppress a laugh from ripping out of your throat. Maedhros looks at you with pure shock and disbelief on his face. Slowly his eyes trail down to his hands, realizing that he was in fact holding a large bunch of carrots.
Indeed as if to gift them to you like flowers.....

Finarfin appreciation ~
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A sketchy doodle of Finarfin in summer evening wear. Didn't use my usual inked-line art, so this was an experiment. 🙃
Loving the sheerness of colored pencils here 👀

How people that did not read the Silmarillion see Silmarillion fans and their lovely conversations:
Silmarillion fans are like: "No your reasoning is completely incorrect because Tolkien wrote in his 293383782th version of the Lay of Leofingolfearielien that Folblorfindriel was NOT at Nargothrondiath during the 344th year of the First age so you are completely wrong."
And the other one replies with: "but in the earliest version, hobbit Blorbingus created light and hit Moringotto with a stick, and the man Berengornambar helped him. So that explains why I thought yhat Folblorfindriel was in fact at Nargothrondiath during the 344th year of the First age."
"But I am completely sure that Fëanofinwëdrielsfinwë said that Fongofonfin died fighting for his peoples freedom, ect ect ect..

The Finrod-Celebrimbor relationship is so personal to me. I know we're all super into the Finrod-Celegorm-Curufin debacle, but this shit just hits different to me and I think it's criminally under-explored. Give me this duo or give me death.

I think about the writer who stopped writing because people went after them.
I think about the new reader who got scared off from commenting because they might say the wrong thing.
I think about the artist who was going to dip their toes in, but saw a blacklist posted and debated in the fandom they so recently were excited about.
I think about all the people who would be here with us, writing meta and squeeing and creating and lifting up creators. Who became ghosts, afraid that to speak up is to stick out your neck.
How many stories won't we get to read, how many pieces of art won't take our breath away, how many comments won't be put in notes or on stories that push us through our blocks... because anger and pettiness and jealousy and aggression are so common in fandoms that so many become ghosts before their time, and the ones who stick through it are still healing from their battle scars?
I mourn all the stories I will never see, all the friends I will never make, all the headcanons that will never bring stars to my eyes.
And I hope that all those who went quiet before they could speak will find a place to be safe, so that one day I may hear their voice.

I've worked on this thing for a whole week 🥲
This muse sitting by the lake came to me in the middle of the night and yeah I would've been damned if I didn't put her on paper right away. The sunrise is a hot mess but artistic freedom is what I have to say to that😌💅🏻
This took so much damn time but the result is more than I hoped for 🥰🩷

Gotta love vibrant colored food...🍅✨
I didn't expect that the tomatoes would come out so pretty with the new coloring technique I used. But I'm not mad about that...😌
Will probs try my hand at pomegranates next.
