I am (obviously) much in love with plants and above all trees, and always have been; and I find human maltreatment of them as hard to bear as some find ill-treatment of animals.

'Come not between the Nazgûl and his prey! Or he will not slay thee in thy turn. He will bear thee away to the houses of lamentation, beyond all darkness, where thy flesh shall be devoured, and thy shrivelled mind be left naked to the Lidless Eye."
J. R. R. Tolkein, "The Return of the King"
Nazgûl - The Lord of the Rings (1978)

“Fairy tale does not deny the existence of sorrow and failure: the possibility of these is necessary to the joy of deliverance. It denies (in the face of much evidence, if you will) universal final defeat…giving a fleeting glimpse of Joy; Joy beyond the walls of the world, poignant as grief.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien.

"I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend."

Sé que duda de mí, sé que ha sido así siempre. Y sí, extraño mi casa, mis libros, mi mecedora y mi jardín. Ahí es donde pertenezco, es mi hogar. Así que volví, ya que ustedes no tienen un hogar. Les fue arrebatado. Pero si puedo voy ayudarles a recuperarlo.

Young Faenor and Fingolfin
Fingolfin: I love this thank you. * holding the new shirt*
Faenor: That will look good on you, brother. *smiles*
Fingolfin: Thank you, brother. Your shirt looks good too.
The other elves: * Sighing in relief *
Finwe: *smiling*

So my cousin with cerebral palsy is going through a Lord of the Rings/Tolkien kick. For Reasons (TM), I am the one who buys his audiobooks. He has the Trilogy, The Hobbit, and The Silmarillion. He's asked for "the next" book(s). I've explained as best I can that there isn't really a "next book", but different books in the same world with new characters, and he asked me to pick one for him to try. I myself have only read the Trilogy, so I'm not sure what other book to try for him.
Any Tolkien nerds wanna suggest one? It needs to be available on Audible.

This stunning artistry of TheLittleWilderness makes me want to pack everything up and go live the rest of my days in Middle Earth. 🌿

Headcanon that modern au! Thandruil listens to Ariana and Olivia religiously, but wouldn't admit it even when faced with death.

Seeing people talk about how they're surprised how sensual wearing the ring is described in the book was strange to me because I always assumed that's how it was even when I had only seen the movies. The wearers are addicted to the ring, and lusting over it to the point of having withdrawls makes sense.

I'll say it, I would have far preferred Lord of The Rings if Frodo had just given Galadriel the Ring, because she implies it would make her the most powerful being in the world and I love that for her. Just imagine: The Witch King going on his whole "No man can kill me" spiel to get interrupted by Galadriel backhanding his helmet off his shoulders. Her riding out of the forest on an ent towards Isengard yelling "Yo Sauramon, what's this I hear about you imprisoning our boy Gandalf" and Sauramon just starts high pitch screaming. Sauron going "Fuck fuck fuck" as he watched one of his oldest enemies rampage across Middle-Earth using the mcguffin he stupidly chose to invest all his power in. And I know, I know, "She's be just as bad as Sauron, it would corrupt her, no one should have that much power" but frankly I don't care. Get it girl.

"I feel thin, sort of stretched, like butter scraped over too much bread. I need a holiday, a very long holiday and I don't expect I should return...in fact I mean not too."
