From The Lord of the Rings Appendix A: ‘The Tale of Aragorn and Arwen’ (abridged)
Elven scholars decided to romanticise the first meeting of these two famous lovers (as they did with everything). For poetic reasons they decided to also leave out the part where Aragorn ran to his room and cried to a week out of embarrasment for announcing his noble lineage to her in an attempt to recover from his pick-up line.
(Fun fact: this is how my parents met too)
(Also, not kidding, other Tolkien couples have actually fallen in love at first sight in the woods and by seeing each other’s reflections on the surface of the water.)
The Hobbit Comic Chapter 1: Tooks and Bagginses! (i hope this is somewhat legible lol)
In the book Bilbo says that Gandalf “was responsible for so many quiet lads and lasses going off into the Blue for mad adventures.” The book goes on to imply that Gandalf was Adventure Buddies with Bilbo’s grandfaher. But since Gandalf took “lasses” on adventures too, I added that Gandalf was ALSO Adventure Buddies with Belladonna. because why not!
Also: the idea behind the comic is that it’s being written/drawn by Bilbo as a bedtime story for a younger Frodo (who he’s either babysitting or has already adopted, take your pick!) This means that all the drawing mistakes are actually Bilbo making drawing mistakes. I am struggling to draw in order to be faithful to the fact that Bilbo is struggling to draw. Don’t worry, Bilbo will get better at drawing if he continues to make these comics
