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.

bitches be like "this is my comfort ship" and that ship is destiel.

Lets talk about the Fellowship for a second. They’re all kinda outcasts, all very different from the rest of their races or family. Lets dig a little deeper into each one, looking at both their movie and book selves.

Frodo: Frodo’s an orphan, his parents drown and he went to live with Bilbo. Bilbo was already thought of as weirdo by the other hobbits because of his adventure, so Frodo, they thought, must be just as odd. Also movie Frodo is much to thin to be considered pretty by hobbit standers and both Frodos are a bit to adventurous.

Sam: Not much to say here, as Sam is an exemplary hobbit. His looks are hobbity enough and he enjoys gardening. The two things that set him apart are, his desire to meet the elves, and, of course, his association with the Baggins.

Merry: Merry is a Brandybuck, which are not all that respectable to the hobbits of Hobbiton, they go out in boats after all. Also he and Pippin definitely are a bit adventurous for hobbits.

Pippin: Pippin is very curious, and curiosity leads to adventure. He is a Took, an outcast from the hobbits of Hobbiton. Like I said befor, he and Merry are definitely a bit adventurous for hobbits.

Aragorn: Aragron is a ranger, lives on the outskirts of civilization. As we see in Bree, people are a bit afraid of him, he’s just too odd, too different. Aragorn also lived in Rivendell, but he was a man among elves, also too different. He’s too human for the elves, yet to elven for the humans.

Legolas: Legolas is the prince of Mirkwood. His father is Thranduil, who, after the death of his wife, turns cold and distant. Legolas also associates himself with humans, unlike the other Mirkwood elves.

Gimli: Gimli is entirely respectable before the quest. I can’t really think of any thing to say about him. (edit: Milkywhoreos is corenct, Gimli is to diplomatic and poetic.)

Boromir: Boromir is respected and loved by Gondor, but his family life? He probably had to raise his brother and loves him more than anything, but his father is a big jerk.

Gandalf: Do I even have to say anything here? Gandalf is completely bonkers (But, like, in a good way.)

So, in conclusion? Each member of the Fellowship was practically alone before they found each other. They had small, broken or non-existing families, and/or were un-liked by others. Then they found these other alone people, and said “I didn’t really have anyone, and they all didn’t ether. But now we got each other, and I don’t care if you’re an elf, or a dwarf, or a hobbit,or a wizard,or a human, we’re now family.” They didn’t have family, so they found one.

Just watched 92sies. Definitely prefer livesies, by far. But I will say, livesies completely ruined Spot. Can I ship 92sies Spot and livesies Race? Is that aloud? Cuz Ben Tyler Cook is the best Race. I didn’t like how in 92sies Crutchie and Jack weren’t even really friends, let alone brothers. Also Jack, like, didn’t care about the other newsies at all, he was only acting in his own self interest. And, you know, as a theater kid I’m definitely bias towards stage productions. (If you like 92sies better, that’s completely okay, your opinions are valid. If you hate it with all your being, your opinions are also valid.) I, personally, like livesies music, dancing, story, and everything (-Spot and the Javey iconic-gay-pin-against-wall scene) better.

So though it is true that Narnia and Tolkien do have Christianity written into them, the main messages are not inherently religious. The ideas of good and friendship and fighting for what you believe in, whether religious or not, are for everyone, not just christians. I am an atheist and I still relate to the main themes in these works because even if I don’t believe in god I believe in other things such as love and loyalty, which are also themes in these books. So even if the authors were christian, the stories can still be relevant and relatable to all.

So stop gatekeeping. The stories do not belong to a specific religion and can be enjoyed and interpreted by all.

Non-Christians should not be allowed to touch Narnia or Tolkien/LOTR. Those were made for us and belong to us.

No but song of achilles hit so hard because it is patroclus telling achilles' story, his song, not that of his deeds, his glory, but the person that he was before and beneath that, it is the story of achilles as a man i- DON'T TOUCH ME I'M EMOTIONAL
