There was a Thor comic where the young Thor meets a shield maiden who is as crazy as he is. She fights, drinks, and parties as hard as he does. They are happy together for many years, and then Loki comes along and asks Thor to go on a brief adventure. Thor and Loki go off for a few weeks and then return. But sly Loki knew that the realm they had gone to ran on a different time, and years had passed. Thor’s love had died alone, waiting for him to return.
Reminds me of William Adams the first english Samurai. He had a wife and two kids at home in England, but got stranded in Japan in the 1600s after a shipwreck. He was not allowed to leave the country for a whole decade, but gained employment and trust from the emporer as an advisor. He did send money and letters home to his family using East India merchants, but they never saw him again and his wife died in the same year as he did, thousands of miles apart
Just Loki being a hilarious prankster, ruining two people’s love for shits and gigges.
Nobody ever accused Legolas and Gimli of being straight.
I mean, I might.
In the books, they talk a great deal about their favorite elf women.
None of it would be out of place for a gay couple with some bi tendencies - but it is enough that I wouldn’t assume either is exclusively gay.
I remember Gimli talking about Galadriel, but who did Legolas talk about?
His legless LEGO lass
Except dwarves and elves hate each other in almost every lore
So like a regular married couple?
Sometimes I wonder if boomers know divorce is legal in most of the world.
TIL I’m a dwarf
I’d be fine with the dwarf disappearing for 36 hours and forgetting I exist.
Dwarf gonna carve the sides, not the strikeface which will get damaged and does it’s job better when flat.
the strikeface which will get damaged
That’s advanced dwarven smithing.
Etch your logo into the strikeface so customers leave your stamp on their foes like it’s a calling card.
Being a dwarf sounds alot like my ADHD
“My blade was forged by drwarven smiths with autism, so you know it’s good”
“With all the enchantments known to man”
