I am not sure what this means but thank you! It is an honour!

imagine: you are chilling in front you your house getting high. along comes an old family friend who you last saw when you were six, you are now in your 50s. after a brief convo where he is kind of a dick to you, he’s like damn you’ve changed :/. and your like yeah bestie it’s been five decades why the fuck are you here. he leaves. later that night a shit ton of people show up and trash your house. just throw and absolute rager. halfway through the family friend from earlier shows up. he announces in full earshot of everyone that he wants you to come with him to rob a bank. you of course say wtf??? one of the people who broke into your house calls you a pussy. another person shoves you a contract which declares if you get shot robbing the bank they will not pay for your funeral. you pass out. when you wake up you find the contract on your table and your house almost completely back to normal. you stare at the contract for a moment and decide, fuck it this is just as a good a midlife crisis than anything.

this is what happened to bilbo baggins

I see a lot of hate for The Hobbit films regularly but what I don't see is people saying that actually, people usually have seen The Lord of the Rings before seeing The Hobbit and suddenly, the whole situations a lot more serious! That hobbit had that ring the whole time! Frolicking about with that ring! The whole time!

I love having friends! Whoop Whoop!! They are so good

Saw a Reddit post that gave the one ring she/her pronouns and I was literally like "who????" Because first of all, what! And second of all, I've never heard the ring referred to as anything other than "the ring" or "it" before. What a discovery.

"Things are made to endure in the Shire" RIP Bilbo Baggins, you would've hated fast fashion.

I'm here doing my silly tasks like "I'm off on an adventure!!". Bilbo Baggins core.

When I say "I'm just a little guy" I mean, like Bilbo Baggins, I am fussy and strange and have weird habits and hobbies.

@danielhowell and @amazingphil should do a gamingmas quick draw Christmas special! I love those videos, they're so funny, and also! Christmas!

Legolas really is such a little shit. Here he is, waxing poetic about Fangorn and how old it is, etc, etc, only to pull this little comment out:

“[Fangorn Forest is] so old that I almost feel young again, as I have not felt since I journeyed with you children.”

Like. Good sir, these are all adults!! You’re off to find the children; that was such an older kid thing to say!! “You children.” Aragorn is literally middle-aged by this point!! He’s old even for a Man and has been around So Many elves and done So Much in So Many places. Like, what?? And Gimli!! Gimli wasn’t able to go to the Lonely Mountain because he was a kid!! It’s been fifty years since then!! He is now an adult, even older than Aragorn!!

Anyway Legolas is just salty that he’s the youngest elf and he takes it out on his Literal Adult friends that are Biologically Much Older even though they are Chronologically Much Younger.

Be honest, if halfway through The Lord of the Rings, they replaced Sam with Josh Hutchersons Peeta Mellark, aside from obvious height difference, would it be noticed? I think he'd do a great job.

I get no less than a million tiktoks a day of legolas edits and while I do love them, they're all like "he is SO hot" and I'm like "???...uh huh....sure....whatever" because while he is pretty, I don't feel that, but I am here for support, literally feels like I'm supervising. Put your Tiktok in the comments and I'll review your legolas edit.

POV: You, a figurehead of a nation, have travelled to another land for a meeting as a messenger of your nation’s status of the captivity of a prisoner you were entrusted with. You were relatively calm before your presentation, your speech practiced, and your spirit as light as your feet on the ground. However, before you conceived to give your testimony, a friend of yours (who had diplomatic immunity in the land) drew all the attention in the meeting to himself. He regaled his hardships with traveling as a man set to govern one day. He spoke of the nearly two decades he had spent tracking your prisoner, a War Criminal in many of the other representative’s territories, at the behest of the wisest in your vicinity, a martyr of your generation. You learn of the struggle to capture the murderer that constantly evaded him. A priceless heirloom is brought up in the conversation, as how could it not be? It was the cause of the very meeting. Several nations were called upon to contemplate its destruction as none could escape its manipulation, its corruption greater than that of money could ever tempt. And it was your convict that held possession of it before his imprisonment. Your friends admits that he is glad that the fiend is in chains, not hounding after the nephew of a treasured comrade of a sovereign kingdom, a friend of its King before his untimely death in battle. You shake in your seat unnoticed as you begin to realize that maybe the daily walks for your detainee through the forest should not have existed. You are next to speak. Your tongue feels heavy. You are shitting your pants. You are Legolas Greenleaf, Crown Prince of Mirkwood.

it's very funny that the lotr movies adapt out most of gandalf's grumpy moments except the ones with pippin so it just looks like he has beef with this one particular hobbit for no real reason.

Imagine the elves of Mirkwood forming an alliance with the spiders and using them like horses because the thought of domesticated giant spiders makes me giggle.

Why is legolas looking at aragorn with such intensity in this scene?? I do not understand it and so I have concluded he's actually just looking through him and at his bones. Thank you and goodnight.

In honour of my Legolas post getting 5,000 notes, I have more weird Legolas for you. This elf sleeps with his eyes open. He can speak more than one language, so he's weird in more than one language. He SHOOTS DOWN A NAZGUL just on a whim in the dark because he saw it, Let's not forget "oh, yeah I went to fetch the sun and she was chilling in a field so I've come back to watch you struggle". In the films it always confused me that Legolas is at the front with Gandalf in the mines of Moria until I realised that he can actually see in the dark so it's beneficial for him to be there, looking into the distance with his freak eyes (affectionate).
