the besties three drinks before ruining aragorn's wedding
Hey does somebody wanna do a Gigolas RPG?
Feel free to hit me up, I'ld love to have one.
Gift on an exchange hosted on discord and A3O
One of my favourite scenes
I will never recover from how everything and everyone was so queer in The Lord of The Rings and The Hobbit and everything else. Legolas and Gimli built a boat together to go to the Undying Lands together and spent all their time *together* after Return of The King but yeah totally platonicly™️
Frodo and Sam were so queer in the books and movies that the actors themselves ship them together, and Sean Astin wanted them to kiss but we all know they wouldn’t have been able to get away with it. Bilbo and Thorin were so gay in the movies that this isn’t even an edited screenshot.
And somehow people still believe that it’s all platonic
hello i am watching the hobbit trilogy (and then lord of the rings) but i’ve been perusing and. the fact that legolas pulls out the locket of Gloin’s wife and son only to be like “who is this hideous thing” [in reference to Gimli] only to become Gimli's best friend and husband has me screaming. i’m losing it. i’ve never seen a better movie in my whole life.
The rest of the elves in the undying lands: the fact that any elf can fall in love with a human is sad and somewhat puzzling. We mourn Luthian and Arwen who dared to choose mortal life. That such a union is possible is both wonderous and sorrowful. We solemnly welcome the ringbearers though, the only ones who are not elves welcome in the undying lands due to the great burden they carried for the salvation of the world
Legolas showing up late on a half sunk raft holding up Gimli: HEY EVERYONE I MADE IT! MEET MY DWARF GIMLI! WE TOTALLY GOT MARRIED!
The other elves: (⊙_⊙)
Galadriel: this is hilarious. I love it! I completely and utterly give my full approval!
The other elves: щ(゜ロ゜щ)
Legolas calling Gimli “Meleth” simply because he doesn’t know what it means
Legolas getting so used to calling Gimli that that when they go for a visit to an Elven kingdom, he forgets about his kind’s extremely sensitive hearing and says it in a hallway or something
An elf hears and just drops everything they’re holding and runs to inform the king
Legolas and Gimli getting called to a meeting which is really just an hour-long shouting match in Elvish
Gimli having absolutely no idea what is going on
After Legolas explains, there’s a heartfelt, teary-eyed acceptance (also in Elvish)
Gimli still not knowing what’s going on at all
And then THE EXACT SAME THING happening on their visit to the Dwarves when Gimli fucks up and calls Legolas “Ghivashel”.
thranduil sleeps calmer knowing even if his son married a dwarf at least he married The Supermodel dwarf and singlehandedly crushed the hopes of single dwarves and dwarrowdams everywhere
Your honor, it's literally them.
