might get shot and killed for this but allo people only being able to categorize platonic relationships as "parental" or "siblings" is actually so embarrassing. have you never had friends before
eragon does break his right wrist in canon (1st book)
Fun little parallels I realize now I have done.
In canon, and in MIC, Blagden’s right wing is the one that is broken by Barst.
Islanzadí loses her right arm, a specific parallel I put in place to connect her to Blagden.
If the dragonfire burns work out as I’ve somewhat settled on, Arya’s right arm will have the flame scars.
Look at this whack little family sharing single battle war wounds! I’m so proud of their bonding so well.
was anyone going to tell me Aragorn was friends with Bilbo and helped him with his songs like a man visiting his gay peepaw at the senior center or did I have to read that in Fellowship myself?
I think part of why I can’t get into any Tolkien stuff outside of Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit is because I immediately lose interest once the gay little hobbits stop being center-stage. “The main hero is CeleFinElfidor the Bold, an immortal warrior who slew three thousand balrogs with a song” makes me go to sleep. but “his name was Blorbo Boffin and his neighbors said he was a queer creature who liked to eat strawberries” is Intriguing. Instantly you’re invested. You immediately see the vision
Thorin tries to use the "I am the King Under The Mountain" line on Bilbo during an argument and Bilbo raises an eyebrow and gives him such a Look that Thorin immediately apologizes so he doesn't end up King Sleeping on the Couch Tonight
January was a tough year but we made it
I had somehow found Will Wood’s phone number spray-painted onto an underpass, decided to text him, and I ended up blackmailing him into making more music. I dunno what that says about me, but it sure does scream.
had a dream that there was this new tiktok trend called "scrubbing" where people would take images of fictional characters and put them in images of bathtubs and drag around transparent pngs of soap and brushes with their tiktok art tablets and like liquify tool their hair down to mimic giving them a shower. and people would get into flamewars in the comments of every single video over the types of soap they picked and if the images had decently removed backgrounds and if they got soap in their eyes. and it got onto the news because it turned out everyone doing the trend was doing it compulsively like they physically couldn't stop and each video was a solid few minutes long because they were just collectively obsessively recording themselves fake-showering these fictional characters and arguing about it online
Had to do it to ‘em.
