Burned

oh god, it's so beautiful

man this took longer than I wanted, also now you’ll finally see who’s the duke and his bodyguards!

I was a scumbag who was beyond redemption. Then I met you. Because of you, I may have become a better person. You were the one who taught me how to love another person.

feanorians's oath was a pinky promise

maglor made it look more dramatic in his songs so the future generations don't laugh at them

elrond knows what it really looked like only bc maedhros talks in his sleep, is silent about it out of mercy

galadriel had no mercy

Using the hobbit age of adulthood (33) and average life expectancy (100), and comparing them to the legal age of adulthood in 1937 England (21) and life expectancy at the time (~late 50s early 60s):

Frodo (51, physically unchanged since 33) is the equivalent of a human 32-33 year old, and looks 21

Sam (39) is the equivalent of a human 24-25 year old

Merry (37) is the equivalent of a human 23-24 year old

And Pippin (29) is the equivalent of a human 18-19 year old, and by both hobbit and 1937 English tradition, still underage.

When we first meet them before the timeskip:

Frodo (33) - the equivalent of a 21 year old (barely, it was the days after his birthday)

Sam (21) - the equivalent of a human 13 year old (Which is adorable, bc his father describes him as constantly being over at the Baggins’ house, listening raptly to Bilbo’s stories)

Merry (19) - the equivalent of a human 12 year old (which is really funny because Merry is chilling at Frodos house and helping him distribute the stuff from Bilbo’s will and kind of affectionately sasses Frodo quité a bit and that’s so much funnier thinking of Merry as a literal child, which didn’t occur to me when I was listening to that scene)

We don’t meet Pippin but he’d be 11. The equivalent of a human 7 year old.

During the timeskip it talks about how Frodo mostly hangs out with the younger hobbits and is closest to Merry and Pippin out of everyone, and when I was listening, I was just like “oh okay his friends just happen to be younger” but no they were both literal kids for most of that timeskip, Frodo’s that guy who hangs out with kids because grownups all exhaust him.

(and meanwhile, the kids are just like LOOK ITS OUR COOL BIG BROTHER FRODO)

Bonus – I don’t remember the exact numbers, but Bilbo is basically a guy in his 80s who looks 33. Which really drives the ring thing home imo

I have a feeling that the words are too small to read…. ◔̯◔
