maedhros: made a spreedsheat to plan his studying and actually managed to stick to it. is prepared for all the classes. passes everything with flying colours and annoys the shit out of you. knows how to turn his stress into something productive. 10/10
maglor: made a spreedsheat to plan his studying and did NOT stick to it. has accepted that he will be failing at least one class and named it his nemesis. spends more time procrastinating than actually studying, but manages to bullshit his way through the questions. you KNOW he didn’t study enough but the teacher doesn’t. 7/10
celegorm: never said he would study and has not. no, actually, that’s a lie; he studied for that one or two classes that he really likes and let maedhros bully him into a quiz for the rest of them and called it ‘studying’. can’t remember the answers to said quiz. doesn’t really care. 5/10
caranthir: said he would study and then procrastinated. crass-coursed entire classes the day before they were due, and managed to pass with a moderately good grade. has like, three classes he excels in because he likes them better. would try to help you study but then you’d both fail. 6/10
curufin: like maedhros but he overachieves. the spreedsheet is colour-coded. the hours he spends studying each class are calculated based on difficulty, on the material, on how much the teacher likes him, on the velocity of the wind during the weekends. aces everything through a coffee and sleep-deprivation induced haze. 11/10
amrod: you’d think he needs to be bullied into studying but he doesn’t. takes turns quizzing himself on the material with each of his family members. sits next to someone and says the whole lesson aloud. he prefers to do it to maglor because maglor barely even notices he’s there. 8/10
amras: does need to be bullied into studying. amrod threatens to quiz him on everything and follows through, leaving amras no choice but to study. complains the whole way through to anyone that will listen. barely passes his classes but he says it’s okay because he won’t need them when he grows up. 3/10
The Silmarillion according to someone who has never read it but only picked up bits and pieces from the tumblr fandom. For shits and giggles!
“Oh brown haired man with a lightsome air So blithe and bright and fair Each tuesday when I trysted thee again All the week was worth to me And so young were we when first found love Found ourselves in the hazel grove Oh brown haired man with a witching smile Full of love and free from guile So soft beneath the lonely hawthorn tree Came thy whispered truth to me I’ll be with thee, my brown haired man In the sunshine or the shade I’ll bring times of bliss to thee So sweet thy kisses were to me And thy voice was melody” Brown haired Man - Sava

Day #213 - Project
Looks like Mae and Finno found the crochet
Like an old little leaf in its hopeless dream Can't forget its bygone beauty, dance on the wind I can wait all my life to be taken away with flow Autumn shrouded by rain turns to cold winter snow When the birds fly away I'm still left here alone I still search for my own land where flowers grow
~ Land Where Flowers Grow, Lind Erebros
The leaf is from Liriodendron tulipifera, a beautiful tree whose flowers strongly resemble tulips. It doesn't usually grow near the sea, but it's my favourite tree, and I liked the parallel between Maglor and the leaf—both alone and far from home.
