Just finished a re read of the silmarillion. Starting the Hobbit now and the tone difference is wild. Especially with the elves

After going through the Silmarillion, reading the part of the Hobbit where Bilbo first meets smaug hits a bit different. Bilbo just poo poo talking Glaurungs great grandson

The true heart and soul is Bilbo burning everyone as he fucks off out of the Shire

It helps the new reader who just read the Hobbit transition into the new feel.

Re reading the Hobbit and lotr directly after the Silmarillion has me wondering if Tulkas wants to stomp Sauron more than he did Morgoth or less??

I like how Gildor and the other elves don't say poo poo when they run into Frodo and crew right after a Black Rider was trying to sniff them out. No hint of "oh gently caress we know the entire history of this one", just like "hmm come with us for a long rear end walk"

Tbf Gildor also has a vibe of "I feel like if I say anything I'm gonna gently caress this up in a way I can't even foresee"

In fellowship when they're waiting to have the council, Elrond's sons come back with some info they're only willing to tell him alone. I can't remember, does that come up again?

Ah ya, that all makes sense. I just finished the lothlorien section in my re-read. I enjoy all the elves being like "magic??? This is just elf poo poo, bro"
