I've learned that if you want fluff and AU, go to the Hobbit tag.

Silm: writer chose not to use warnings. WELL I mean, if you have read the Silm, you should be used to violence and character death lbr

it's impressive tbh, making the top ten when the percentage of silm is so much lower than the hobbit and lotr combined.

I JUST GOT DOWN TO THE SILMARILLION SURPRISING NO ONE FINGON/MAEDHROS AND MELKOR/SAURON ARE THE TOP TWO surprising literally. no one.

I’m not sure which I find more disconcerting, that Curufin/Finrod is the 9th most popular ship, or that the 10th is Fëanor/Fingolfin
