Modern Lotr AU I May Or May Not Write

Is Jack the art teacher? Race is probably also the teacher to spend half the class talking about his day.

Race is the type of Italian teacher whom 12 year old girls simp over and give sickening cards to on Valentines day, and when they find out he has a boyfriend they face time their friends and cry at 6 pm

Crutchie is the type of English Lit teacher who tries his best that students actually like because of his non cringey humour and kindness. He brings homemade cookies into class and helps people overcome shyness

Albert is the teacher who forgot what class he teaches, his hair colour, his age and his address

I feel like Gandalf also knows that the hobbits think they are being hostile and, in addition to a nice safe challenge, he comes back to pis them off.

we make fun of thorin getting lost in the shire but you know the nazgul also had to keep asking for directions to find bag end so maybe hobbits’ city planning is just wack

“I guess I’ll just watch the fellowship.”

me 6 movies later, “oops”

If I ask my future partner “You’re like the Achilles to my Patroclus” and they say “weren’t they just friends?” I will leave them on the spot.

I wish that Natasha and Tony didn’t die as much as the next fan, but think about it. Who started the MCU? Tony. And who was the second Avenger to appear? Nat. In 2012, who saved New York? They all did, yes, but Nat closed the port hole and Tony disposed of the nuke. They saved the world first, it makes sense that they die to save it at the end.

More The Song of Achilles fanart because I have sold my soul to this book. A little angst for y’all too.

I forgot to sign this one. Please give me credit.

I can’t reblog this fast enough. My tears are getting in my way.

imagine if the song of achilles was just a written narration of patroclus recounting all of his memories to thetis, as seen in the last few pages where they were talking,, that’s why everything was written in past tense rather than present. patroclus is made of memories because that’s all he ever will be if not permitted to join achilles in death and we are literally witnesses to his life, just as thetis was prior to her honouring of patroclus’ soul

When ever I write a modern, non-magic AU of lotr, I always include just a touch of magic. Have something be a little mystical, because I, for one, always believe in magic and I think everyone else wants to a bit too.

Is Spot standing on a box? He must be

"hi."

"...hi."

After watching The Breakfast Club see now that this is basically The Breakfast Club, lotr. Now I really need to write this.
