I am having a Middle-earth crisis right now.
So I just saw BOTFA and this is basically my thought process right now.
"I want to write all the Middle-earth fic ever.
I wanna write Galadriel and Gandalf chillin' in Valinor together before she came to Middle-earth. Hanging out in the gardens, and going for walks down by the water, and stuff. I wanna write how sad they were to part, and I wanna write their reunion when Gandalf finally wandered over to Middle-earth, too, so many years later.
I wanna write [Major spoiler for BOTFA.]an AU where Bilbo and Thorin get their happy ending.
I wanna write First Age-era Ecthelion/Glorfindel fic. I wanna write the Fall of Gondolin. I wanna write Ecthelion being reincarnated and finally joining Glorfindel again in the Third Age, after spending so many thousands of years apart.
I wanna write Galadriel and Elrond spending time together in Rivendell. I wanna write the aftermath of the White Council [BOTFA spoiler]driving Sauron out of Mirkwood. I wanna write the two of them sitting together and trying to figure out how to save Middle-earth.
I desperately, desperately wanna write pre-LotR Legolas and Aragorn meeting for the first time and traveling together and training together and slowly falling crazy mad in love with each other (with Arwen's blessing, cause I OT3 those three hardcore). (Note to self: Aragorn is born in TA 2931. The Battle of Five Armies is in 2941. He's told about his heritage in 2951.)
I wanna dig into Thranduil headcanons. I wanna write the one where he meets his elk friend.
I wanna write Aragorn and Gandalf meeting for the first time. I wanna write them traveling together.
I wanna write super fucking porny flithy Bard/Thranduil fic and I regret absolutely fucking nothing."
Basically I am having a Middle-earth crisis right now and I want to read and write absolutely everything. ♥
(This post is basically in lieu of an actual review because I am absolutely gutted right now and it will take several days before I can even begin to try to put my thoughts into anything resembling coherence. Well fucking done, Peter Jackson. I am one super impressed and completely heart-broken Tolkienite. I am never going to emotionally recover from this movie.)
