Elrond and Celebrían from @the-old-moon-laughed's DTIYS
Gushing and headcanons under the cut
I really enjoyed making this! The colors and the pose as just SO 😍!!! Thank you so much for hosting this!
I've added a few of my personal headcanons about embroidery and adornment, as well as my Korean Nolofinweans concept (or at least I tried, I'm still learning how to do skintones in general - most of my work has been greyscale).

Elrond and Celebrian’s wedding thoughts
I’ve had this really weird idea about how the brutality of the first and second age in which so many elves have lived could influence certain traditions, especially the Noldor exiles because I think they did a very sharp u turn from ‘all I’ve known is bliss’ to ‘the world is composed of fire and corpses’ and went well off the deep end a lot quicker than the Sindar did. Because the Sindar adjusted to the darkness a lot less violently and suddenly than the Noldor did and are just generally more stable seeming, less entirely batshit insane (because of course all the Noldor exiles present in First Age Beleriand are the batshit insane ones who either burnt the ships or crossed the Helcaraxe).
So the Noldor are so focused on war that it inserts itself into every aspect of their lives including ceremonies because how is anything meant to be binding without blood spilled? Bonds are forged by saving each other in battle, avenging a lost friend with a bloodthirsty rampage, how are words meant to hold weight or impact over the life and death situations that define them? So I think that in certain factions, at certain points, it becomes tradition for there always to be some form of blood involved in a wedding ceremony.
How varies, probably it originated from people just straight up getting married on the battlefield one time too many, seems like a very Noldor thing to do (no I’m not talking about the LACE kind of wedding before anyone’s mind goes there). Then it evolves to different things, scrapes along hands before linking them, cuts on knuckles before bringing them to lips, slicing a finger and leaving a bloody mark over the partners heart or on their forehead, or (my personal favourite) cutting the lips before kissing so the blood mingles.
This brings me to the main point of this ramble which is that Elrond and Celebrian by the start of the Third Age are some of the only people who still value this tradition. Despite their extremely different upbringings fundamentally, and this of course is up to personal interpretation as we know very little about Celebrian sadly, I’d say they were both born into the world at the point of apocalypse, desensitised to violence. Very used to the sense of impending doom and willing to take any hope or joy when they can. They are fundamentally children of the first age and it shows.
Mirkwood obviously doesn’t do this because they obviously aren’t Noldor and don’t have those kind of traditions (because they aren’t that mental) and Lothlorien probably wouldn’t because it’s predominantly Sindar (and also more chill) and since a good proportion of the First Age elves are either dead or in Valinor by the end of the second age suffice it to say everyone who is at their wedding thinks it’s concerning when they pull out their ‘good daggers’ and prick their lips before embracing, gazing lovingly into each other’s eyes and grinning wildly all the time as if there’s nothing messed up at all about the fact they brought daggers to their wedding.
Thranduil expected there to be at least one disturbing Noldor feature of the day, his father gave him enough vague warnings, not that he ever thought he’d end up at a Noldo’s wedding, and he’d certainly no hopes of Celebrian being a tempering influence on Elrond’s blatant Feanorian sympathies with how much she loved to wreak havoc but nothing could have prepared him for the sight of little droplets of blood smearing on their mouths as they pressed their lips together, otherwise perfectly romantically. He does not attend any more weddings in Rivendell after that.
Galadriel and Celeborn probably married in a Sindarin way but they find the gesture touching anyway, not unusual in the slightest but more quaint, a true symbolic end to the previous ages in the joining of the last descendants of Finwë in the wartime fashion before an age of peace.
Is there a possibility Arwen and Aragorn did it too? Absolutely and Legolas has thoughts on it which he will be bemoaning to Gimli the entire ceremony.

I like to think that
One of the things that first attracted Celebrian to Elrond was when she realized that he knows Sindarin customs. She assumed he wouldn't, given the whole raised by Noldor and worked for the high king of The Noldor. But then she meets him and he's basically a Sinda like her.
The other thing is that aging office worker is her weakness.

Rings of Power Valentines Week Day 1: OTP
Celrond
(because of course it is).
Team "we sat down on this bench to make fun of Gil-Galad together and gossip but oops our fingers brushed ever so slightly on accident and oops neither of us wanted to move away so now we're just kind of holding each other's hands and pretending we're not and haha what do you mean? I don't have a crush no why would you think that? Haha-- absolutely not! Because there's no way they like me back....Unless...?"
Stupidly competent at everything but each other. That's it, that's the ship.

Grew Together, Roots Entwined. Celebrían/Elrond. 3k chap. [1/?]
Tumblr media
After their escape from Dol Guldur and its destruction, Celebrían flees to Imladris with Elrond and her mother, Galadriel. While in Imladris, Celebrían and Elrond begin an intricate dance around each other—and slowly fall in love.
“I wanted to thank you, Elrond,” Celebrían said quickly, looking within his eyes in earnest as she said his name. “You were so very brave back in Dol Guldur. I have never seen anything like it before . . . ”
Elrond stared back at her, swallowing past a lump in his throat. It bobbed as he cast his eyes to the floor in a demure manner upon her compliment. “It is—” He stumbled over his words, a nervous huff escaping him at receiving such praise from her lips. Elrond swallowed again, stilling himself in place, though he had trouble meeting her eyes. “I love your mother deeply,” Elrond finally said in all seriousness, meeting Celebrían’s gaze once more. “I would do anything for her—and you as well.”
Celebrían felt the corners of her mouth quirk upward into a little smile, a flush creeping into her cheeks. “You don’t even know me,” she refuted him, a playful edge to her tone, and it made Elrond grin back at her.
“No, I do not,” he admitted, his bright eyes gleaming so kindly, “but I should like to, unless you object to that.”

A bit different kind of crown for Elrond than last time. I like this one better, I think.
First idea for star crown

Ever Companionless
They call me Kind as Summer
With the wisdom of one with grayed hair,
The strength and beauty of starry space.
They think of me as a gentle season,
A flowered garden
Bathed in sunlight of gold.
But the tempermant of gold
Is one of summer,
So kind to gardens
For a moment, just a hair's
Breadth before it burns. Everyone has their seasons.
For my life, I've been kind for a beat of space.
That is to say, even a Lord will need space.
Most see their memories bathed in gold,
A nostalgic season,
Warm as Summer.
My nostalgia is lackluster with grayed hair
In a sad, brown garden.
How to care for a garden
That's been left in a lonesome space?
So I cared for others, brushed back their hair,
Made them shine like gold
Companionless, until the Summer
That became my happiest season.
She stayed for many a season,
Planted a garden,
Made every day Summer,
Brightened and warmed the whole space,
Shimmering like gold
With silver-shined hair.
"Silver Lady," They called her, for her hair.
But she tempered my season
And to me she was made of the kindest gold.
Young green and gold was her garden,
Bathing my gray and silver space
Once again in a kind Summer.
But even Summer has its seasons and she was taken from us, tormented in a dark space and with the apathy of her wounded soul, there was no joy left for her garden. Red tarnished green, and so my golden woman entered myth. Far away, she heals and waits, until the hours run dry.
I will see my silver lady again.
I challenged myself to write a sestina for Elrond and Celebrian! @runawaymun ty for letting me run a draft by you ♥️ it took me a while to decide I liked enough to actually post it 😂
