Young Arafinwë and his brother let the day come to a peaceful close outdoors for @morweneledhwen

Well, it's been a hot minute since I last drew Finarfin! And I don't think he ever left the WIP stage, so this is a first. What a shame! Thank god Morwen reminded me to give him some love again. Also, I've really grown to love Finarfin ever since I read Morwen's take on him. "All his sons" is basically canon to me at this point.

Thinking about these two spending a day or two out and about together really sparked my inspiration. Now that I think about it, I love imagining Nolofinwë as a closet adrenaline junkie. Climbing is such a mental game, of course Nolo would love it! And it just so happens to align perfectly with his brother's request to go searching for rare herbs and flowers.

The requested trope for this was transferring qi, so I imagined Arafinwë having the ability to channel light to some extent, using it to form a connection with another person for healing or relaxation like easing his brother's fatigue after an exhausting climb.

it is true that immediately after watching sinners in the theater my sister did turn to each other and agree that, unfortunately, we are exactly the kind of people susceptible to being lured outside at night by a rendition of an irish folk song and then murdered by a vampire

tbh i also thought that the music choices for remmick were really genius. a song that originated in 17th-century scotland and a song written for and first performed by a 19th-century english performer, despite him being implied to pre-date christian ireland. he really can't reach his ancestors, even in the music he's using to try to access them, because the music he's using in the scene where he gets closest is still so detached from the people he's trying to reach with it! and he himself has become so detached from his own culture (through metaphorical vampirism-as-assimilation and through diaspora) that he winds up trying to literally appropriate sammie's music because he sees it as having closer connections to the past and the future because of blues's unique niche within musical history. the irony of course is that remmick and everyone else in that rocky road to dublin circle are dead and that even if he did manage to turn sammie and take his memories, neither he nor sammie would be able to reach their ancestors anymore, no matter how the music sounded. which is of course the point and the danger of assimilation and appropriation — that you don't retain your culture, that you lose the crucial part of yourself that makes you you, that someone comes in and takes your music or your heritage or your art for themselves to use it for their own purposes and, in doing so, hollows it out.

anyway this is just stream of consciousness musings. i think the music angle of this story was so fucking good, is the gist of it

I don’t want to talk about your car’s extended warranty I just want to talk about the performance of “Wild Mountain Thyme” done by Laufey, dodie, Jacob Collier, and the National Symphony Orchestra at the Kennedy Center

And the best part about this isn’t even the fact that three award-winning singers collabed on this project, nor is it the majesty of the orchestra

it’s the way that Jacob stops in the middle to turn to the audience to direct them in 3-part harmony and they make something so beautiful and human

I’m never gonna stop thinking about this
