The Item of Many Items

Orcy Tales

The last chapter and this chapter are not related. At all. This is about Orcs, wheras the last one was about whales. Anyway, the crazy and hilarious @feathertailsilver requested I do a oneshot involving

Tauriel. 

And her orc children

I don't really know how to respond to this (see chapter "By the Way") 

Plus, I honestly don't see how this would happen (see chapter "Why Orcs are Secretly Amoebas")

So here it is. 

"LOOK I KILLED A SQUIRREL!" screamed young Hurg to his mother, Tauriel. She looked up and saw the 5-year old orc child dragging a bloody heap towards her. She was going to reprimand him, but just then his father showed up, black and menacing and reeking of filth.

"I am so proud of you, my boy!" Growled the boy's father. Tauriel reflected on his appearance for a moment. Wheras his father was dark and thick-skinned and coarse, the young orc child had paler skin, almost like Azog. He had dark hair and yellow eyes, and Tauriel thought he was beautiful. Except for when he dragged around bloody stuff. Which was all the time.

"I'm hungry!" screeched Gurg, from where he was playing with butterflies and smashing their wings off with a blunt axe. Altlough initially Tauriel hated seeing her children do things like this, she had gotten used to it, and now was able to accept it. "Dinner is ready," she answered, heading back into the house. They lived in a random rotting shack somewhere in the Blue Mountains, where she had been exiled after her marriage. But, their life was good.

"Here is your stew," she said to her family, pouring a thick, brownish-green concoction into each of their bowls.

"YES MY FAVORITE!" yelled Hurg, followed by his younger brother who echoed, "FAVORITE!"

"Make sure to finish," said their father. "Or no man-kill stories before bed!" The orc children, stuffed with stew, nodded enthusiastically. Tauriel sat down with a piece of bread and watched them eat as the sun dissapeared over the hills.

So. That's that, it kinda reminds me of Shrek. You know, how he's an orgre and she's a princess and they have little ogre children? Except ogres aren't bloodthirsty monsters who eat people. This was really weird to write, but I hope you enjoyed reading it. Ehehe :)

Oh, and have you guys seen the deleted scene from RoTK called Eowyn's stew? I though of this when she served the soup! I'll put it in the media section so you can see it :D

Cheers,
