Honestly, I haven't seen such a terrible story as Adar's in a long time. Not in the sense that it is poorly written, but in the sense that his storyline and his entire life are absolutely hopeless. His life was spent in suffering alongside Morgoth and Sauron; he witnessed how they killed and tormented his children, he was tortured too. For a brief moment, they freed themselves from Sauron's power, and Adar did everything to ensure that Uruks did not fall under his control again. He was ready to turn them against him, to feel their distance and their waning love for him, he was prepared for them to kill him, just so they wouldn’t become slaves again.
He dies right after realizing that the ring could heal him, after a new path opened up for him in alliance with Galadriel. Sauron looks at him and Adar understands that Sauron has won, and that everything that came before was in vain.
This is an absolute, total nightmare and shattering of all hopes.
ladies and gentlemen HER
all my 30+ years led me to the moment I have HIM now, the perfect sauron I have ever imagine
valar bless you charlie
WELL MARK ME AS SCARED AND HORNY

The next chapter of my what if TROP were like ATLA fic (a.k.a Elves with complicated feelings go on a journey) is up!!!
Sauron presses his neck along Galadriel’s blade, laughing. “Go ahead.” He hums and the entire room vibrates with it. The shadows curl all around them, drift up their legs, threatening, entrapping. “Look at you both.” His words fall softly from his tongue, but the edges are all blade. “You with my ring, and you with my gauntlet.” Sauron’s smile stretches beatific, the picture of false innocence. “My precious things.” The sounds all but coo from his throat. “It is good to know where my things are, after all.”
The air in the room thickens, clouds around them, choking, and the scent of fire curdles in from nowhere.
“For when I want them.” He presses closer, looms over them. “For when I have need.”

"I won't hurt you" said the liar
I ALMOST DIED BECAUSE IT'S SO SIMILAR TO HOW I FEEL DUDE YOU'RE FUCKING AWESOME THANK YOU SO MUCH
especially this part!
The fire becomes real, he can sense how it flickers around them, crackles, consumes, but it stays concentrated in Sauron’s touch, heady and dizzying, nauseating and healing. The pain overwhelms the edges of his senses, he thinks he screams. He thinks, his head falls back, all the noise stolen from his lips, and the screaming lives only in his heart. He thinks he cannot quite tell where he is anymore, except that the light is inside of him, around him, and he craves it, and he hates it, and he needs. He knows.
And Sauron knows.
And he knows only Sauron.

The first has the correct vibes but actually my pet peeve this season was the elves' seeming incredibly lax views on forge safety (as someone who's done a bit of metal working). Like okay, Annatar is excused. But Eru Mirdania, pull your damn hair back girl. (Mini rant over)

I'm coming here from Pinterest where I've been posting these for months, so I thought I should dump them here. That being said I refuse to post them one at a time, there are way too many. Seriously I have an ungodly amount of these. So here's part 1.

Piece inspired by the Duel of Finrod and Sauron from the Lay of Leithian rock opera.
See under the cut for some more inspirations (and a Leithian photo dump)
The pics with the screen background come after I already started on my piece but they match perfectly the aesthetic I was going for and I just wanted to post them anyways.
Another big inspo was the art used for The Battle of Finrod and Sauron by Clamavi de Profundis, here’s a mediocre screenshot:
Last in my inspirations were several fanarts I saw on tumblr using the a similar colour scheme with abstract swirls to represent the song of power.
