I was talking with Laura about winter in Erebor and how Ori would probably build this knitwear empire & outfit the entire area in sensible but stylish woolen accessories. (also something about earwarmers for elves, whcih turned into headbands, but still- SO CUTE)
What if Tauriel would be in charge of handling most interactions with Erebor since apparently she’s still the only one in Mirkwood who can interact with dwarves for more than five minutes without causing a diplomatic incident. When she’s in Erebor she’ll go into super tourist mode and try EVERYTHING (as far as permitted); browse the markets and try local cuisine and trade for random crafts and get her hair braided in ereborean fashion., and on her return bring gifts and souvenirs for everyone back in Mirkwood. On her last trip she brought this tiny mechanical elk toy for Thranduil, made by Bifur’s family. And she always brings a pile full of stuff for Legolas, hence the headbands. ‘Look Legolas! It’s the newest fashion! They’ll keep your head and ears warm during winter!’ - ‘Tauriel my ears are a perfectly adequate temperat-tauriel no, tauriel please don’t - MANWE’S BALLS TAURIEL WILL YOU STOP TRYING TO PUT THE DAMN THING ON MY HEAD’ - ‘Just try it Legolas, it’ll look cute! I picked the shade to go with your eyes! Just put it on once, Legolaaaaaaaaaaassss’ (when she wants something, Tauriel has perfected saying Legolas’s name in a way that is the perfect mix of unbearably annoying and endearing. It ALWAYS works.)
(She’ll make him try the food, too. Mysterious dwarven pastries of no recognizable shade, form or taste, she’ll shove them in his face until he tries them and ends up with a week of food poisoning every time. Tauriel eats ten of them in one go.)
[I’m still anxiously awaiting the movie, but until then I’m really into the older brother/teen sister dynamic for these two?? idk idk]
