okay but is this a Muderdads aesthetic board because if it isn’t I know what I’m doing tonight

omfg no. like, so much definitely not. pls do it yourself, I could never do a proper aesthetic board for this topic, the symbolism eludes me.

Sooo did Telvido Durden impale HIMSELF on a flagpole to make a point or…?

this is a bad analogy, Durden’s goals were kinda antithetical to Sauron’s, wow what a horrible thing to have written

I’m getting more and more interested in this premise the more I think about it. But, yes, he would???? Though I guess he could probably just illusion it like with Gorlim, but I feel like the only practical point in doing this charade in the first place would be shits and giggles so errr…then again, he did decide he’d rather show off fighting Huan than protect his dungeons competently so…look, while I like to think Sauron is serious about most things he did I’m not actually 100% convinced about how much gravitas Sauron’s priorities really had at any given time.

There are a lot of drugs happening here AND a lot of people on fire, I would prefer not to speculate as to what exactly I am inhaling.

Maybe Fëanor’s ashes just sort of drift around Arda infecting people who inhale them with terrible judgement or smth.

spite is the best motivation tho lbr

I would like to say that the enjoyment of developing my own ideas is all I need to get me to finish a thing but no, no, it’s really not. Even if I actually really like a popular headcanon or characterization I will probably at some point become opposed to it just on the principle of “what about this other idea though”
