TEETSEES ASSEMBLE - 1 MORE SILVER TITKET AVAILABLE

Yes, yes, yes, sweet jesus indeed. Although I don't think jesus would want to do much with what is about to go down 🌶️ 👀

My friend whom I've met during WAD has a spare ✨Silver Titket ✨ to sell to you. Yes, YOU!

YOU'VE BEEN CHOSEN FOR THE INNER CIRCLE OF PHELL (yes, yes, the moistest of the moist out there), and it is here for you!!!)

In less flamboyant words, @dipandpiptit has ONE SPARE SILVER TITKET TO RESELL FOR BERLIN DATE 🖤

Titket is for 🪅Row 4 Seat 3🪅 (Pre-show and VIP Merch), and she would like to sell at an original price but can agree on a DISCOUNT

Since it's a silver one, you not only can take part in their wonderfully dark and inappropriate pre-show Q&A (like that is not reason enough pfff) but you can also hang out and vibe with other fellow teetsies that include:

@dipandpiptit - THE SELLER - The tag queen. Tags like crazy and it's not grafitti but Tumblr teetti (I should be sorry but I'm actually sorta proud). If you think it's lurking behind the OG posts, just ask any fandom related question and you will go into a Boss Fight of a Phub Trivia Quiz

@goldenpinof - me. Your go-to place for the freshest of the tit-pdates. (Jo's words, not mine)

@cardsagainstdnpg - The phournalist and trusted source of phews. Chronically online yet on top of her Sister Daniella's prayers. She'll recite you words spoken by D-teet or P-teet like they're carved on her ribs and serve you the freshest of the Titea

@nickbipanicnelson - A multifandom queen. You think you've got nothing in common, but just give her 2 minutes, and she'll whip out a common fandom language and persons you can both simp over. Respectfully (I hope not)

@baking-phan-in-my-mind - The unhinged one that tries to appear as though she's on top of the content but will speak in 2014 fandom at times. Try to quiz her on the new stuff, and she'll fail miserably but can offer information that is decade-old like it happened yesterday. She'll probably mention her cat more than one time in a way that will make you question whether it's a full sized adult, a toddler, or a brat sibling

📸 COME HANG OUT WITH THE TITQUE, WITH US 📸

Of course, if you don't want to socialise and just want to buy a Silver Titket, we will be respectful and won't be overbearing and/or can leave you alone (I promise they're not keeping me locked away to say this)

help

ANYWAY

Don't wait a minute longer and DM @dipandpiptit or @goldenpinof for your Silver Titshow Experience™. It's only an arm's length away (don't be freaky about that arm length, tho) (although Sister Daniella would beg to differ) (with emphasis on the beg 🥵)

I'll stop now and go back to my corner of shame

LITERALLYYYYY like for some reason people are acting like new bcnr is overly happy (or 'saccharine' or 'twee' or whatever those pretentious music fucks say) as if turbines/pigs isnt on haldern levels when it comes to absolute gutwrenchingness??? i find such a big issue with it is a lot of bcnrs fans are primarily fans who heavily prefer isaacs stuff (which is understandable i guess but like..bruh...) and a lot of that is also linked to music critics and reviews and stuff and. i dont want to generalise but ill be honest people who are into music in that kinda way are Mostly Men (not to say girls cant be Pretentious Music Fucks too though. hashtag women in male fields) and i feel like their earlier stuff (especially For the first time) has more of a like. Masculine appeal??like through lyrics and tone stuff especially in the earlier demos and singles whereas their post-isaac stuff generally deals with more feminine issues to me (which makes it BAD!!!!!NOT GOOD!!!!in the eyes of the Pruzz (Pretentious Music Fuck huzz)),,, i feel like to the Pruzz the absolute pinacle of deep songwriting and sad angsty gutwrenching music is manifested through Deep Voiced Man Whimpering And Then Screaming Over Discordant Guitars About Modern Pop Culture And Technology And Also Meaningless Sex™ and anything that portrays that depth and sadness differently Isnt truly as deep and sad. While i admit that their newer stuff is some of their most upbeat stuff that doesnt take away from the emotional depth which So Much of their other newer stuff holds. it feels disregarding to call all of it Twee and Saccharine because of the odd BCNR Friends Forever here and there. Im kinda losing my flow and im not sure where im going with this but ive had this rant cooking up forever and i need the chance to yap about it in the reblogs of some random tumblr user at like 1am my time so i shall continue. It reminds me of when the movie Turning Red came out and grown men were getting pissed and calling the movie bad because They Couldnt Relate To It as grown men. like hey man i cant exactly relate to charli xcx wet dream either but i still like the music!! i see that people keep judging new bcnr by what Theyre Not rather than what They Are. Like you can't enjoy their later stuff without the spiteful spirit of a Pruzz whispering "Its too happy and also Science Fair better" into your ear. GET OUT!!!!!!!!!sometimes music can be fun and whimsical. the Pruzz just hate being fun and whimsical. and they also probably hate women at least like a liiiittle teetsy totey tiny bit. Warryboy3148 out

seeing people react to bcnr like its somehow this peppy band now and even complaining about it is so fucking wild. not that i dont think soundwise the new album has a bit of a lighter tone so far musically, but looking at the lyrics of both Besties and Happy Birthday im like. are we really perceiving this as less sad and full of depth or do we just automatically assume the lyrical content is more shallow bc a woman is singing

Further reactions to "The book of lost tales":

I appreciate that Idril canonically wears armor and does swordfighting.

I feel like I can actually imagine adult!Idril much better now like in armor and with open hair, distraught but ready to fight while babby Earendil does not yet realize the danger...

My first thought is that Earendil was probably cute in that baby chainmail. My second thought is OUCH, Idril and Tuor always made sure their growing baby had fitting chainmail cause they felt the apocalypse might get them at any moment. Imagine that, imagine them having the baby armor fitted every year or so :(

Its fun how much of the basic structure already exists but most of what you'd consider the main characters doesn't exist or is scattered across various minor roles The only Prince anywhere in sight is Turgon - Except for Team Doriath, theyre all accounted for. I suppose Maeglin is kinda there in name only with vaguely the same role & motivation, but looks personality and background all did a 180 since. Luthien is still pretty much "princesd classic" at this point, not quite the fearless go-getter from the final version - markedly this version tells Beren that she doesnt want to wander in the wilderness with him whereas the final one says she doesnt care and its Beren still wants to get the shiny so as not to ask this of her and also for his honor.

I mean in the finished version Id consider the 3rd and 4th gen royals to be the main characters (well, alobgside Team Doriath and the varioud human heroes) and theyre hardly here. Imagine the silm with no Finrod!

Feanor had no affiliation with the royal family whatsoever, and is also generally less super. He's just the guy who won the jewelsmithing competition, not the inventor of the whole discipline. Still seems to have been envisionad as a respected member of the community who gets called to the palace for crisis meetings and is listened to when he stsrts giving speeches. From the first he already has the backstory of going off the deep end (or at least growing disillusioned with Valinor) after a family member is killed by Melkor and theyre still the first to die, but its just some other rando unrelated to the royals

The situation regarding the humans is different - instead of Melkor leaking their existence, its Manwe who explains that the other continents were supposed to be for them eventually. So Feanor goes off on a tirade about weak puny mortals comes off as a more of a jerk unlike in the final version where Melkor barely knew about the humans and described them to the Noldor as a threat. On the other hand in this one, also very much unlike in the finished product, Melkor dupes even Manwe into being unfair to the elves as a whole. In this the final version is a definite improvement, both Feanor and the Valar come off as a lot more sympathetic and though still deceived he's partially right in some things at least, so you have more of a genuine tragedy rather than a simple feud

There is something to the idea of Commoner!Feanor tho. I guess some of this survived in his nomadic explorer lifestyle and how both his wife and mother (who arent mentioned here) eventually were the ones to get that background of being not especially pretty ladies who are not from the nobility but got renown, respect and acclaim for their unique talent and contribution to society, with each having invented things and Nerdanel also being renowed for her wisdom. Hes sort of an odysseus-like Figure in that sense. I suppose later developements necesitated that Maedhros & co. have an army not just a band of thieves, which means they needed to be nobles/lords. That said this being a society where artisans are very respected and half the lords have scholarly/artistic pursuits going, the gap was probably not as big to begin with as it might have been in say, medieval England. Esoecially since Nerdanel's father had been given special honor by one of the local deities and that the social order might have been a very recent thing in Miriel's time. One might speculate that the first generation of Lords started out as warriors during the great journey, or perhaps just Finwe's friend group.

Also found that bit intetesting where the Valar have to deal with the remaining political tensions and effects of Melkor's lies on the remaining population in Valinor... - i guess with the change of framing device it was less likely for news of something like this to reach Beleriand. That, or the existence of Finarfin and his repentance made this go smoother this over in later cannon

Turgon's go-down-with-the-ship moment reaaly got to me. Im half tempted to write a fic where his wife, siblings and dad glomp him on arrival in Mandos. I dont care that none of them exists yet in this continuity i want Turgon to get hugs

I love all the additional Detail that got compressed out in the shift from fairytale-ish to pseudohistoric style especially all the various Valinor magic insofofar as it is compatible with the final version - particularly love the idea of the connection between the lamps and the trees that is now integrated into my headcanon forever

Its actually explained what the doors of night are

If I had not already read unfinished tales or volumes X to XII where this is also apparent, this is where I would say: Ah so the Valar were supposed to be flawed characters. Manwe has an actual arc; by the time he sends Gandalf he finally "got" it. I think in the published silm the little arcs of Ulmo and Manwe are mostly just lost in compression/ less apparent when only some of the relevant scenes got in but not all

It occurred to me way too late that the "BG" chars are the most consistent because theyre at the start and most stories are written from beginning to end. Finwe doesnt get a dedicated paragraph of explicit description until HoME X but my takeaway was that he's described pretty much like I always imagined him anyways/ same vibe I always got from him... charismatic, thoughtful, enthusiastic, sanguine temperament, brave in a pinch but at times lets his judgement be clouded by personal sentiment (though that last bit is more apparent/salient as a character flaw once he became the father of a certain Problem Child) ...i guess this would be a result of jrrt having had a consistent idea of him in his head for a long time.

This means Finwe's still alive at the time of the exodus which is just fun to see/interesting to know... Interestingly he sort of gets what later would be Finarfin's part of ineffectually telling everxone to please chill and think it over first while Feanor simply shouts louder (which is consistent with his actions before the sword incident in later canon where he initially spoke out against the suspiciozs regarding the Valar) - but its not exactly the same, he's more active than Finarfin later in that when "chillax" availed nothing he said that then at least they should talk with the other Kings and Manwe to leave with their blessing and get help leaving (This seems like it would have been the clusterfuck preventing million dollar suggestion in the universe where Feanor is related to him and values him) but when even that falls on death ears he decides that he "would not be parted from his people" and went to run the preparations. I find it interesting that the motivation is sentiment/attachment (even phrased as "he would not be parted from [his people]" same words/ expression as is later used for the formenos situation), not explicitly obligation as it later is for Fingolfin (who had promised to follow Feanor and didnt want to leave his subjects at the mercy of Feanor's recklessness )

Speaking of problem children. It seems the sons of Feanor were the Kaworu Nagisa of the Silmarillion in that originally all they do is show up at some point and kill Dior as an episodic villain-of-the-week. And then, it seems their role got bigger in each continuity/rewrite... probably has something to do with the Silmarils ending up in the title later making it in the sense their story that ends and begins with them. They have zero characterization beyond "fierce and wild" at this point, though in what teetsy bits there is we already have the idea that Maedhros is the leader and Curufin is the smart one/shemer/sweet-talker, though not the bit where Maedhros (or Maglor, or anyone really) is "the nice one". Which I guess explains why "Maglor" sounds like such a stereotypical villain name.

"The Ruin of Doriath" was purportedly the patchworkiest bit of the finished product, but I never noticed and it actually left quite an impression of me upon first reading, the visual of Melian sitting there with Thingol's corpse in her arms contemplating everything thinking back to how they met... she had the knowledge to warn him not to doom himself but couldnt get him to understand it because he doesnt see the world as she does.... After reading this though I wish there was a 'dynamic' rendition that combined all the best bits like, youd have to adapt it to the later canon's rendition of the dwarves, have Nargothrond exist etc. But i mean that just makes Finrod another dead/doomed relative of Thingol's whom bling cannot truly replace, like Luthien and Turin. In the Silmarillion you could easily read it as just an "honoured guest treatment" but here and in unfinished tales I get the impression that Thingol actually did see Turin as a son.

Already you see the idea of trying to make the stories all interconnected but there is less than there will be (the human heroes aren't related yet and there is basically no Nargothrond, which is later a common thread for many of the stories - a prototype shows up in the 'Tale of Turambar' tho complete with half baked prototypes of Orodreth and Finduillas

O boi im not even through yet
