there is a little voice in my head that occasionally says "my precious" in gollum's voice
what are people's ACTUAL thoughts on gollum/smeagol bc his backstory is so sad BUT the first part of lotr 3 was ICKYYYY
Both have an invaluable powerful artifact.
personally i believe that yoda and gollum are more similar than people think
Writing the Bilbo and Gollum meet was cool because I got to write Bilbo as the Hobbit I headcanon with the tail etc
But I also wrote Gollum as the Hobbit Child he never grew up from after getting the ring.
Writing the parallel with Bilbo (in this particular story) going feral because of reasons I won’t spoil, and Gollum who is literally already feral and more creature then hobbit at this point, was amazing, fighting like absolute animals.
