Fire on fire, would normally kill us But this much desire, together, we’re winners They say that we’re out of control and some say we’re sinners But don’t let them ruin our beautiful rhythms
You are perfection, my only direction It’s fire on fire
Series on good dad Feanor taking care of his baby Nelyo.
Pancakes aren’t easy to make….I think bad cook Feanor is really cute, but I also love the idea of Feanor being a really good cook and making amazing meals for his children…So I don’t know. Maybe this is Feanor starting out his culinary skills, and he’ll greatly improve as time goes on.
Nelyo totally has a Feanor doll. And I feel like Feanor is smart, he would have come up with something like a stove. Also the flour is “Yavanna brand”…
@feanorianweek 2021 DAY SEVEN: The Swearing of the Oath
Be he foe or friend, be he foul or clean, brood of Morgoth or bright Vala, Elda or Maia or Aftercomer, Man yet unborn upon Middle-earth, neither law, nor love, nor league of swords, dread nor danger, not Doom itself, shall defend him from Fëanor, and Fëanor’s kin, whoso hideth or hoardeth, or in hand taketh, finding keepeth or afar casteth a Silmaril. This swear we all: death we will deal him ere Day’s ending, woe unto world’s end! Our word hear thou, Eru Allfather! To the everlasting Darkness doom us if our deed faileth. On the holy mountain hear in witness and our vow remember, Manwë and Varda! —The Annals of Aman, §134
Those of you who guessed Ides of March and ancient Roman inspiration guessed correctly!
Or brave, or sassy, or stupid, or all of the above:
1. Asking Fëanor whom he’ll send the ships back for first. Not Fingon or cousin Fingon, but ‘Fingon the Valiant’.
2. Planning to one-up Morgoth - the very king of lies, deceit, and manipulations - by feigning to treat with him.
3. Singing back to Fingon 'amid his torment’ as he hung out at Thangorodrim.
4. Asking Fingon to kill him even as he flew up to him on a giant eagle’s back and tried to free him.
5. Giving away his crown as an apology to Fingolfin and his people. (And also horses from Valinor as atonement)
6. Out-sassing Thingol: “Therefore in Doriath let him reign…”
7. Putting the whole of Doriath and some mountains ranges between his brothers and the rest of the Noldor. To prevent bickering.
8. Building the coldest fortress in Beleriand because you can’t keep a watch while cozy. (And also because he secretly thinks he doesn’t deserve nice things)
9. Naming said fortress 'Himring, the Ever-cold’. (Or the hill was already called that and he chose it just because)
10. Being a Holy Terror to the orcs and looking like an Avenging Angel - with white light burning inside and all that.
11. Union of Maedhros. Enough said.
12. “…Messages to the Havens (of Sirion) of friendship and yet of stern demand.” That’s most likely Maedhros’ doing. 'We’re friends as long you return what’s ours. And those who are not our friends are our Enemy™. And our enemies have a habit of dying. Well, those we’re able to kill at least.’
13. When he would not go back to Aman in repentance as he feared a greater doom. “Who shall release us?” None. We’re forever doomed. Doomed, I said! So let’s rob the Valar instead.
14. Committing suicide by jumping in a fissure in earth full of lava. A fiery death.
15. And of course, being Tall and Copper-haired and Handsome. Because you can’t be eye-catching by being just one of those.
