torture the bisexual brunette man some more

I mean why else would he bind half of his very soul to the Ring, unless it was initially meant for Galadriel and meant to fulfill what he promised her - binding her to power (him).

The second Ring (which was never made because Galadriel refused to participate in that insanity) was supposed to be worn by him and would have contained half of Galadriel's essence - binding him to light.

And both Rings would have had the power to control/rule all other rings given to the races of ME.

It would explain so many things.

Like why she set herself the test of refusing the Ring in LOTR (that scene never made sense to me btw. "I passed the test" - I was like "wat? whose test? yours? why? Lady, you look a bit crazy, do you know?" - "I will diminish and remain Galadriel" - wat? diminish? why? - It felt there like she actually regretted making the right choice - and all of this I've always thought while watching LOTR, before ever watching TROP, and it never actually made sense to me completely, yk, that whole scene? But with the context from TROP? My God, but it finally does make sense!).

Why the secret inscription on the Ring in Elvish. The text sounds like an owner's manual🤣 And why he, the one who created it, would need to know how it works, or why would he explain it to a possible thief of the Ring??

Why Galadriel was never in the battle of the Last Alliance - because she didn't trust herself not to be tempted by the Ring and switching sides.

Why the story of the Lord of the Rings (i.e. Sauron) is narrated by Galadriel - because she is basically another protagonist of this story.

The way the Ring always craved to be returned to Sauron. Was it actually an anti-thievery mechanism or was it intended this way - to bind the bearer (i.e. Galadriel) to Sauron?

Etc., etc., etc.

Reblogging would be a great help, but don’t feel pressured to

you know i have never heard a convincing arguement as to why AO3 should not moderate the content that is posted to their website and i think a lot of the arguement against moderation on AO3 boils down to, terminally online people thinks community moderation is the same as government censorship and personally sending the cops to someone’s house to arrest them irl/

I decided to redo my lotr alphabet illust set. I am Just much more into traditional média at the moment, I would like to have them all as one set I can flip through In person. But the letters I have added on digital. 🤔

I hate that planned obsolescence is starting to reach fandoms. I hate that fandoms are starting to die after two, three years, I hate that whenever you stop getting content that means the fandom will die and be gone.

I need people to stop trying to brush off old interests as being 'cringe' as soon as you lose interest, or worse: make it seem like it's imoral to like something that they themselves held so dear before.

Fandoms are meant to last for years and years, the moment content stops being created is the moment we truly thrive because we keep creating the content ourselves the way we love it and expand on the things that are already there for us.

I don't care if you lost interest on something, it's fine and normal even, but stop trying to blame and make fun of people who still do love the fandom and the content and the things we can create.

I need people to enjoy fandom again
