the fellowship of the ring is such a dnd party. it’s just like a bunch of 13-year-olds all wanting to be different races and varying degrees of royalty and the DM somehow having to figure out how they all met to work together

by contrast, the company in the hobbit are a situation when a DM was stuck with a 14-player party and said ‘fuck this, you’re all dwarves’ apart from bilbo who said ‘fuck THAT make me a halfling’

Tolkien started rewriting the Hobbit in the style of LotR, but what I really want is the Silmarillion in the style of the Hobbit. 

In a hole in the fabric of the universe there lived a god. 

Now, this was not one of those minor gods of bedtime stories or petty wars for heaven; this was the One God, all-loving and all-knowing, who created the world – only he hadn’t created the world just yet, which is why he was sitting in a hole in the fabric of the universe.
