some lesbian thoughts on elrond & galadriel

Galadriel and Elrond in Season 2 of Rings of Power. They both wear grey cloaks, Elrond looks pensively at Galadriel who is looking at her ring Nenya on her finger.

The dynamic between Elrond and Galadriel, despite being central to the show, sometimes feels under-appreciated in the fandom. Like many relationships in TROP, it doesn’t easily slot into a single category. It’s not merely one of friendship or kinship or mentorship

Galadriel and Elrond in the pilot episode of Rings of Power. Galadriel wears a golden crown and smiles lovingly at Elrond.

It’s not romantic, but it is emotionally intimate—and that seems to trip a lot of people up, even before 2x07. We’ve always appreciated how emotionally open Galadriel and Elrond are with each other, particularly given how guarded Galadriel is with most other characters.

Elrond and Galadriel in the Rings of Power Season 1 finale, the foreheads touching while Galadriel cries.

She and Elrond have a long history prior to their reunion in the first episode, and during the course of the show they rely on each other as they navigate disappointment and loss, both personal and as relates to elven-kind.

Cirdan's workshop, Season 2 of Rings of Power. Galadriel appealing to Elrond, one hand (wearing Nenya) resting over his. Elrond looks at her with a slight forced smile.

They don’t always see eye to eye, but even when Elrond feels hugely betrayed by Galadriel’s choices, it doesn’t erode the love between them.

Elrond and Galadriel in the pilot episode of Rings of Power. He smiles softly, eyes down, as she rests her hand affectionately on his cheek.

They’ve been separated during their respective darkest moments, but find solace and healing in each other’s presence. They bring light into each other’s lives, and together will be instrumental in banishing the rising darkness.

One of the strengths of Tolkien's work, and one of the reasons fans (including queer fans like us) return to these stories time and again, is the focus on platonic bonds that defy societal norms through the strength of their intimacy and commitment.

Galadriel and Elrond in Eregion, Season 1 finale of Rings of Power. They sit beside each other. Elrond looks to Galadriel with a distressed expression. Galadriel extends a hand (not visible in frame) towards Elrond.

Of all the relationships we've seen on the show so far, Galadriel and Elrond embody this wonderful category-defying emotional intimacy most of all.
