all the parts of the ask meme you haven't done yet, for Tolkien

Ok haha, again sorry for no cut, tumblr mobile sucks.

4 Do you have a NoTP in your fandom? Are they a popular OTP?

Yeah, Maedhros/Fingon for reasons explained in an earlier ask. I’d say they were popular yeah :’)

7 Is there anything you used to like but can’t stand now?

This isn’t specifically silm, but the movies ruined Bilbo for me. I used to love him but I can’t stand Martin Freeman.

8 Have you received anon hate? What about?

Nope

11 Is there an unpopular character you like that the fandom doesn’t? Why?

I feel like the fandom is actually kinder to the Angband crew than they are to the Feanorians sometimes. At least, the ones that aren’t Maedhros and Maglor. Curufin seems to be the one most considered as “evil” and a lot of people kinda think of him only as a villain and a bad father if they think of him at all.

12 Is there an unpopular arc that you like that the fandom doesn’t? Why?

Silm doesn’t really have arcs haha.

13 Unpopular opinion about XXX character?

Maedhros and Fingon’s families were more important to them than each other. They certainly cared a great deal for each other, but I’m really not into characterisation where they’ll go for each other over their immediate families always. Mostly because I enjoy reading about them with interacting favourably with their brothers/sister rather than them shipped.

Also that Maglor isn’t Saint Maglor the Weepy. He regrets, yeah, but if he could do it all again and could save his family by killing, he’d happily wade through blood.

15 Unpopular opinion about the manga/show?

Feanor Did Some Things Wrong But The Valar Were Super Skeevy With Silmaril Ownership And Intervening When They Really Shouldn’t Have

18 Does not shipping something ‘popular’ mean you’re in denial and/or biased?

No, it just means I have different tastes. Variety is the spice of life, it’d be boring if we all thought the same thing

24 Would you recommend XXX to a friend? Why or why not?

Yes but with the addendum that it’s really heavy going and it’s definitely not for everyone

25 How would you end XXX/Would you change the ending of XXX?

I couldn’t write a better story than Tolkien. But I’d love an au where the feanorians survive.

11 questions meme

Ok so i got tagged by @the-mirador for this who thought up questions that frankly i am not clever enough to answer today because my brain is literally soup. so forgive me for incoherency, here goes haha 1. Is there a trope you really like in theory but really hate/find unsatisfying when it’s actually executed? um, well i like villain winning as a trope but in a super specific way in that the villain needs to be the protagonist otherwise it's just a mess of "I don't want this" angst. and that's really rare. 2. What’s one song that immediately brings you back to your childhood? Anything by steps, s club 7 and the spice girls. pure distilled childhood right there 3. What’s the weirdest food preference you have? Dry/plain food. Don't like gravy over things that were not cooked in it, not the hugest fan of additional sauces etc. And i always eat my cereal dry. 4. What is one book-to-movie adaptation you’d love to see but will probably never happen? id rather people stopped adapting books that they do shittily than get a dream book adapted. but um, good omens appears to be getting a very nicely casted (so far) tv series so I'm good for now 5. Which article of clothing do you have that makes you feel most comfortable about yourself? i like my various nerdy hoodies but these days i mostly wear work clothes sadly 6. Analog or digital clocks? Digital. The ticking drives me crazy because I'm not used to it when i go home and try and sleep in a room with my various childhood clocks. I had to take the batteries out of all of them. 7. Do you tend to prioritize individual desires over community needs, or vice versa? sometimes i am selfish but most of the time i care much more about other people than i do myself. if this is about political views, then community needs every time. Idm paying tax that helps others. 8. What’s one work of fiction that really sums up your philosophy/outlook on life? oh god. um. the very hungry caterpillar. i too have the urge to eat everything in the world. but for real idk at all 9. What’s the most recent factoid you learned that absolutely blew your mind? all facts i have ever known have left my brain. I've been sat here five minutes. perhaps i knew a fact once. 10. If you could recover one lost artifact/manuscript/etc. from history, which would it be? i can't even remember facts, you think i can pick an artifact i want back?? (I'm so sorry haha these are great questions i am just Bad) 11. If there was one class you could add to the standard student’s schedule, which would it be? It depends on the sort of student. and where the classes are. UK school is very different to American school which in themselves are different to most European schools afaik. More actual world history would be nice, we did a little but not enough. Rather than adding an extra class can i use my vote to stop people complaining about being taught "useless maths" like calculus etc? just because you don't use it doesn't mean it's useless :/ thanks for the tag, sorry for these non-answers. I would make my own questions and tag someone but rn laying my head on my desk and dreaming of hometime sounds like a better plan
