the fact that the first book begins in the slave baths and the third ends there. the fact that we hear the bells in the opening scene of the books and in the final scene we hear them again. the fact that all of this started with damen killing laurent's brother, only for laurent to kill damen's brother in the very end. IT IS ALL ABOUT THE CYCLE OF HISTORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This fic has been floating unpolished in my Drive since 2019; I was bored during the commute back home so, I decided to clean it up and post it: I hope it's a fun read.

Yes, demon!Aziraphale is 100% inspired by Aro Volturi: once a Twilight girlie, always a Twilight girlie ✨

lord of the rings really was lightning in a bottle. it shouldn’t have worked but by god it did. peter jackson, who had no filmmaking education and was mostly known for making low budget splatter movies, had no business going out and changing the movie industry like that but he did. return of the king showed up at the oscars and became one of the most awarded movies of all time. to this day it holds the record for the highest clean sweep. hollywood will keep trying to recreate that magic with bigger budgets and high profile actors and they will keep failing. i look at the state of these blockbusters where everything is smoothed over by soulless cgi and actors are acting opposite tennis balls and they will never hold a candle to the pure heart and soul and craft of the lord of the rings. every single person involved in that project loved being part of it and it fucking shows. i’m so thankful the stars aligned the way they did for these movies to happen like that.

the silmarillion is wild because you read it and you're like huh okay, and then you read lotr and it turns out everyone's just going around doing their own thing while the surviving elves are living through the final chapters of a post-apocalyptic horror story

  • rivendell's a pretty chill place, right? everyone gets along splendidly. dream retirement home et cetera. solid chance the guy you're having afternoon tea with has either survived or personally committed war crimes. also the reason it's so chill is elrond has this magic ring that makes it so the whole place exists slightly outside normal time
  • galadriel's been around since the beginning, like, for pretty much all of middle-earth's history you understand, she has Seen it all and despite what you may have been led to believe is at all times this close to snapping. also the reason lothlorien is so chill is she has this magic ring that makes it so the whole place exists slightly outside normal time
  • i can't emphasize enough how much of a post-apocalyptic horror story thranduil lives in. homeland destroyed and half his people massacred. has fucken sauron in his backyard and the spawn of the primordial beast that eats light puttering about on his lawn. a dragon lives next door. does NOT have a magic ring and is therefore obliged to rule over his murderforest in normal time
  • just so we're all on the same page here, legolas' day job before joining the fellowship was to hunt the spawn of the primordial beast that eats light and it's not like, a big deal or anything. he just has to do it. he's used to it.

'elves are leaving middle-earth and it's so sad :(' they have ptsd samwise.

Thank you to my dearest friend @one-eyed-bossman for the tag!

3×3

***

Songs:

- Starlight by MUSE

***

Extras:

- The quiet on the beach at dawn on a Monday morning in late spring, when the waves are long and slow on the shore and the sun feels like a comforting caress after a long winter

- The elation of walking in silence amidst a desertic landscape, the heat haze imperceptibly changing the horizon at every lung-scorching breath

- Waking up and realising that after a chronic pain flare-up, the pain has gone back to its baseline: breathing is easier; shoulders drop; thoughts are clearer
