They Flyt Over Who's The Better Musician
They flyt over who's the better musician
I think the Noldor, but especially the Fëanorians would enjoy flyting.
If you don't know what flyting is, it's basically a form of improvised poetry competition between two and perhaps more people and the goal is to dish out the most offencive insults at your opponent as you can possibly imagine.
With how confrontational the Fëanorians are and also linguistically inclined it seems like a pastime they would engage in and use as a form of venting/hashing out conflicts to avoid resorting to physical fights.
I'd imagine Maglor and Fëanor would be unbeatable champions of flyting, both of them easily coming up with rhyming insults, and Curufin would be close behind, the three of them would have the largest vocabulary stored in their heads.
Maedhros is also good with words, but I think he would take his time to think through his verses, the poetry aspect of it not coming as naturally to him. He'd also probably only participate in friendly competition, he'd rarely have any real beef with anyone. Oh but when he does get angry it's a sight to behold.
Maglor wouldn't have much beef with anyone either, though he might fabricate some for the drama. He still participates in as many flyting matches as he can for the fun of it.
Fëanor and Curufin on the other hand are genuinely out there to call everyone a fucking idiot, full offence. If you get on their bad side or they just simply hate you, then get ready for the most cruel yet still somehow artistic verbal lashing you ever heard.
Caranthir would halfway through a flyting get too angry to express himself, and being tongue tied just makes him even more angry, falling into a negative feedback loop.
Celegorm has zero artistic bone in his body. Poetry whom? He just starts listing off the most crude insults and curses he knows. No rhymes, no rhythm, no musicallity to his cadence, just word vomit.
Ambarussa are clumsy in their rhymes, but they're entertaining to watch as they toss lines back and forth to each other, challenging the other to come up with a rhyme for their words. Also, the one who isn't performing the verse beatboxes in the background.
Nerdanel says one scathing haiku then leaves.

this is the most beautiful thing I've seen all day
Silmarillion Characters as Random Quotes My Friends Have Said
Fëanor: Only 4 grandmas are dead because of my stolen banana sticker collection, and I'm not sorry. Also Fëanor: we want justice by means of arson Maedhros: HOW MANY TIMES DO I HAVE TO TELL THIS FAMILY NO MURDER UNTIL AFTER 3 AM!? Also Maedhros (sorry): third degree burns are better than first degree murder
Maglor: Anyway, everyone can die by my blade, I've had enough and I'm peacing out go scream at the ocean until September comes
Celegorm: At any given moment, I have a dancing rainbow cockroach spinning around my mind smashing up all the important cognitive wheels
Caranthir: Arguing is my love language, okay?
Curufin: Murder is okay! Except when it's accidental Fingolfin: I'VE JUST CHALLENGED MOTHER NATURE TO A DUEL Aredhel: I like a man with moist hands because it means he has blood on his conscience Finarfin, singing: I hate you, you hate me, we're a happy family
Túrin: I like to think I'd die a heroic death, but in reality I'd probably put my goggles on too tight and they would crack my skull.
Bonus: Celegorm's servants: these children are looking really kickable right now
The Fëanorians: we are a stabby stabby loving family
Mae and Mags after Sirion: I just keep hearing this muffled voice in my trunk- I feel like we kidnapped someone

NOOOOOOOO 😭😭😭😭
AAAAAA I MADE HIM :3
He still needs some things to fix like the hair( its to short and ungly) and the face,but he is so pretty and cute and I love him
and sauron always comes into the story....
if i had a nickle for every time a pair in the middle earth legendarium defied a dark lord, saved each other by song, lost a limb, and got rescued by the eagles, i would have three nickles which isn't a lot but it's funny that two of the most queer-coded relationships get paralleled to tolkien's 'ultimate ideal of a romance' couple like this twice it happened thrice
