Hi! I just saw you're also into the unpredicted party :) I'm sadly not caught up at the moment but I'd LOVE to talk about it as soon as I am!

Omg YES! So here to chat, i have like no-one irl to do it with. I’ve watched all of them except the latest ep, so I have so many things to talk about once ur caught up.

Really I dare you to find me a more secretive mf than Halueth Eolson. Like cmon dude it’s been over 50 episodes and you’re telling me it’s still not clear who ur fucking parents are? I am frothing at the mouth here please tell me if you’re responsible for the yeeting of Eol or Maeglin.

Long after everyone else had left the beach, Erestor remained, patiently waiting for his young charge standing knee deep in the waves. The light faded from the sky and the stars rose, but he stood still as if he could see the path his brother sailed, as if he were determined to wait until Elros set foot on his new lands.

Elrond didn’t stir as he drew closer, gray eyes fixed in the horizon.

Erestor knew there was little he could say to offer comfort, so he remained silent, letting his presence speak more than his words ever could.

He had sworn to Maglor years ago that he would remain with the twins, had promised his lord that his children would be safe as long as he drew breath. It had seemed logical to remain with Elrond after Elros had made his choice. Middle-earth was still full of great peril even after Morgoth’s fall, and Elros would soon pass from the world while his brother remained behind. Elrond was the one who would need him, though he would never admit it.

“You could still go with him, if you wished.” His voice was quiet, barely audible over the rush and murmurings of the sea.

Erestor snorted at the ridiculousness of such a statement. “So could you.”

Elrond looked at him at last, his features carefully schooled into a neutral expression. “No, I’ve made my choice.”

“And so have I.”

“Have you?”

“Yes, I have. I have no wish to dwell in a realm of Men in Numenor, nor to go back to Valinor yet.”

He had no desire for Valinor, not as long as the Valar barred his lord from returning home nor as long as his young charge needed him. His place was with Elrond, to serve and protect, it was what he wanted.

Elrond’s brows furrowed, but before he could set out another attempt, Erestor shook his head.

“No, no more well meaning attempts to set me free, I made a promise, and I intend to keep it. I shall continue to nag and plague you and keep Gil-galad’s books in order until you set up a household of your own for me to manage.” Brow arching, Erestor added dryly, “You cannot be rid of me so easily.”

A blink, then Elrond laughed, the sound like starlight, and he at last turned away from the sea.

In that moment, Erestor knew he would be all right.

Oh shit oh shit oh shit oh shit oh shit

Why is nobody talking about The Unpredicted Party?? I usually don't listen to RPG podcasts, but it's so fun!

okay I have discovered I might not be perceiving a dynamic in six of crows the same way as everyone else but I wanna check.

regardless of your answer, I'd love to hear your thoughts on why you picked who you picked.
