Victorian Sensibility #2
Elrond doesn’t tell Lindir to change - why should he? This is fine, and ethier way Lindir should be able to wear whatever he wants.
Even if other elves are staring at Lindir the same way he is.
It made him feel red and ends with him glaring down any would be sutors- gods he was acting like a child. He knew that, he didn’t need Erestor to nod dissapovingly at him like that!
As soon as everyone was out of earshot Erestor glanced over at Elrond, “You know this really isn’t fair to Lindir.”
The bottom of his stomach dropped.
Victorian sensibility
Elrond knew he shouldn’t stare - he shouldn’t be taking advantage of Lindir like this!
Lindir’s new outfit was something else, a perfect blue that hugged his small waist and fell short of covering his ...ankles.
Family Discussions
BFF: Elrond is such a dad, does he have children?
Me: oh hoho he has children
BFF: who’s his spouse
Me : oh you won’t see her she already went to Valinor (explains what that is)
BFF: oh so are they divorced or do they like exchange letters?
...
BFF: What about Galadriel does she have kids?
Me: Galadriel is Elronds mother in law
BFF: wait what!!!! How!!?!?!
When Elrond and Lindir finally got together no one even thought about giving Lindir “the shovel talk”. Meanwhile Elrond can’t seem to catch a break!
Wherein minstrels, a hobbit and his own family decide to give Elrond “the talk” now if only any of them had communicated this to each other!
(Lindir has a surprising number of friends.)
Lindir (signing up for the Musican Guild and being a nervous mess): Can I bring a friend during tryouts?
Elf in charge: Of course! After all it looks like you need all the emotional support you can get!
Next Day -
Elf in charge: Lord Elrond are you here to evaluate the tryouts ?
Elrond (sitting in the front row): Oh no I’m just here for my friend.
Elf in charge (expecting someone really important): who?
Elrond: Lindir
Elf in charge: Wait What?!?!
Lindir (goes on stage)
Elrond: Your doing great sweetie!!!
With elves heightened ability never before had one fainted of stress or even fainted in general.
And then there’s Lindir.
(Important political meeting)
Thranduil: Of course the dwarves are late!
Lindir (flashbacks to the last time there were dwarves in Rivendell): dwarves?!??
Elrond: Lindir I was going to tell you but...
Lindir faints.
Thranduil: what the hell!!! Someone get a healer he’s dying!!!
Elrond (sighing): First off I AM A HEALER Second off he’s probably fine. This happens to Lindir quite a bit.
Thranduil: PROBABLY!!!!
Elves don’t have to sleep as much as humans do. So imagine they have no idea what sleep deprivation is?
Bard (stumbling around, repeating his words and vaguely hallucinating): where’s the coffee
Thranduil: are you okay
Sigrid: oh dads fine he just hasn’t been able to sleep in a week
Thranduil (conserned and horrified): what?!?!
Elves have heighten senses right, so they probably never had a need for hunting dogs. So they probably never had dogs as pets. So...
Bard: These are my children!
Thranduil (points at dog): what is that
Bard: that’s my son!
Thranduil: Bard what the fuck?!?!?
Me: loving the humans pack bond trope
Also me: loving The Hobbit
Bard: I would die for you.
Thanduil (screaming internally and already in love): I’ve only known you a week!
