Russingon as a warmup sketch that got out of hand :) hope the boys are cute enough, this is probably still in Blessed Valinor where nothing bad ever crossed their way. And if, Maitimo would just pick his tiny cuz up to carry him away :3

Elrond Week
Hello all Middle-Earth fans! I've been thinking about an idea for a while now, and I've just decided to throw it out there and see if it sticks:
Would anyone be interested in a week-long fandom event centered around Elrond Peredhel? His life is so long, and so rich, that I think there is a well of potential there worth exploring and celebrating!
I don't really know how to organize an event, so it might take me some time to figure out how it works (any help and advice would be much appreciated)! I do really like this idea and I hope that I can make it a reality in the future if any of you would want to participate and support it!

Firstborn women is fascinating. How exactly does it change the dynamics or the canon events? And more importantly, lesbian Russingon?
lesbian russingon yess!! here is. a tiny little fraction of the dynamics in that verse, namely the finwe-feanor-fingolfin-turgon-fingon mess
okay so. for the sake of this au, we are swapping every single firstborn son to a firstborn daughter. for those who wed (which is just fëanor), their spouses also swap to fit most easily into the au
also for the take of this post i'm not swapping anyone's name around. but i DO know they are gendered and would swap them if i actually wrote this
so, finwe's beloved baby from his first marriage is a daughter. his first child from his second marriage a son. this creates a very natural dynamic of intense jealousy between them, where feanor expects that fingolfin is going to get everything as the first-born son and she will get nothing
she is also the clear favorite, an extremely controversial figure in court, and a genius. usual feanor stuff, but take it up to eleven with the tendency to break social norms + inheritance angst
eventually finwe announces that he is changing the law to make a one-time exception to allow his eldest daughter to be crown prince rather than his son. no this will not apply to any other woman in valinor. this is the special princess law for his specialest princess
you can imagine fingolfin's feelings re: this. he says nothing but deep down is extremely frustrated at the blatant favoritism, and feels his father would never do something like that for him
[time passes i am skipping over a lot of stuff to get to the point]
cut to: fingolfin's own family. in this case, eldest daughter fingon, middle child and only boy turgon, little aredhel.
fingon is very much fingolfin's favorite kid, as i believe is true for usual canonverse also
but he's raged!! a million times over!! about how unfair it is to show special favor to the eldest. he will not be his father in this. he will stick to his own ideas of fairness & the law. he is very much raising turgon to be the heir (even as he secretly wants to give fingon everything) and he's weirdly resentful of turgon re: this.
fingon is also kinda resentful of turgon re: this. if they had all been daughters, there would be no problem and she'd just be the heir presumptive, but he has to go and be a boy. fucking ugh
you can imagine why turgon fucks off to gondolin

I'd like to think that a few centuries after the events of today's Girl Genius page, the phrase "sending a cat to meet the king" has become slang for malicious compliance

charmed by the idea of, like, 19-year-old fingon out on the town with 11-year-old turgon like "hey! a column... is that the kind of column you like" and turgon like "ugh no that's corinthian 🙄 don't tell anyone you like those, those are lame"

already inflicted this on the discord server and decided to make everyone suffer here too
assigning silmarillion elves bad driving habits
feanor: speeds, unless you tailgate, in which case he will slow down until you back off. if he has to stop in the middle of the high way, that's your fault for entering a battle of wills with feanor
fingolfin: tailgates
finarfin: does 5 below the speed limit in the outside lane
maedhros: chronic backseat driver
fingon: incapable of using turn signal unless he has explicitly been reminded by maedhros in the past 15 minutes
maglor: plays music so loudly he cannot hear sirens if an emergency vehicle needs to pass
celegorm: explicitly ignores those special speed limits around schools (either they learn or they die)
curufin: has modified the shit out of his car so the engines are super loud because he thinks it makes him look cool
caranthir: knows the location of every speed and red light camera in tirion. abuses this knowledge.
celebrimbor: on his phone
nerdanel: thinks stop signs are a suggestion (see also: red flags)
finrod: incapable of recognizing when he is too drunk to drive. very insistent he gives his drunk friends a drive home because they're to drunk to drive and he wants them to be SAFE
turgon: tells everyone to get an electric car while not actually having one himself
