Crap, now I’m wondering where I picked up the ‘Bëorings’ instead of Bëorians, and why I only do it for that Edain tribe…

Laughing a little because I shied away from anything proto-elvish/Cuiviénen Era primitive elvish because I was terrified of the heavy scholastic focus on linguistic developments, feeling that such superior knowledge on forms of Quenya was the only reason people wrote or read about early elves, and as I would never be able to even slightly fake Tolkien linguistic knowledge, it’d never happen. (I guess my faking it went better than I thought.)

LOL yes I don’t think I could write the people of Bór in an unheroic light – on the other side of the coin, yeah… even when I bother to have the Fëanorians, between the POV and narrator bias, the scent of unimpressed disapproval does waft from the pages, eh? 

(the reason I haven’t written anything from Kreka’s parents’ generation yet is because they’re the group of Bór followers that could have the some of the positive blindly loyal belief that the Fëanorians =/= disaster. Between Boaz, Marti, and Roas, there would be variations in the levels of trust and enthusiasm for shit like the attack on Doriath, but I literally can’t focus myself to plot anything remotely connected to it.)

Man, I really need to write the War of Wrath Bortë fic where I have “Vanyar + Bór + fusion character from another fandom + disparaging attitudes from everyone towards the Fëanorians from distant family and humans alike.” I think the only thing missing are some descendants of Bëor and more Sindar. And gratuitous epithets in place of names.
