Feanorian silences

[alasse_mirimiel]

In which Elros is Not Impressed by Elven-kind and Elrond is trying to pretend he's not comparing everyone in a position of authority to Maedhros and finds them lacking.

Ereinion clearly thinks that it was a terrible thing to happen to us, to be fostered by Maglor, and maybe he’s right. But I think he imagines that there are dark hurtful secrets in our past that we aren’t revealing, obscure Feanorian transgressions.  There are no sinister Feanorian secrets, though. All Maedhros and Maglor’s crimes are public knowledge. We are merely replicating Feanorian silences.

Oh! They are looking very sceptical, poor things! I badly want to give both of them a hug.
Thank you so much for drawing this!

Tanto tiempo! Como anda todo?

Que buena imágen: super expresiva y dice tanto con una paleta sutil. Muy buen título.

Hermosa historia!Recuerdo lo que lloré al leer "A Walk in the Forest..." la primera vez (segunda, tercera...). Y estar llorando frente al monitor gigante de una desktop requiere muchas explicaciones a toda la familia que pasaba :D

This is a great picture of them! I like their expressions.

They're beautiful. I like the differences between them.

I love their expressions, between outrage and scepticism! So much alike, and yet not the same.
