Tolkien Elven Imagines and Headcanons Volume 1

89. Being Pregnant with Orophers Child Headcanons

- When you tell Oropher that you are pregnant with his child, the King of Greenwood is overjoyed to hear such wonderful news!

- The next to be told of the news, is naturally Thranduil who has some uncertainty about having a younger sibling but nonetheless he stoically congratulates you and his Ada!

- Oropher is very gentle and considerate with you throughout your pregnancy, and though he is still extremely stubborn and headstrong about your safety, that sass of his is simmered down for the time.

- If you are dealing with bad bouts of morning sickness, Oropher will stay with you and prepare you a basin of water and a rag and apply the cool wet rag to the back of your neck to try and soothe you.

- He will also take the time to sit with you until it has passed, encouraging you gently to try and drink anything slowly before he works on trying to get you something to eat.

- Anything you could possibly crave to eat, Oropher will get it for you without question and he doesn't bat an eyelash no matter how crazy the request sounds.

- Having been through one pregnancy before, he understands fully that you can't help being interested in such strange food combinations.

- Oropher is a hen while you're pregnant but he keeps it very tamed considering he doesn't want to stress you out which would result in stressing out the little elfling growing inside of you.

- He only offers gentle reminders to be careful, even though inside that sass and headstrong attitude wants to come out in full force to try and reason with you that way.

- Oropher will most certainly make sure that your every need is met especially when it comes down to dealing with your aches and pains, having every healer at the ready to offer you some kind of relief.

- Or if he can physically offer you the relief he will, rubbing where you need it or drawing you warm baths.

- Oropher is such a gentleman helping you in, taking his time to help wash your back and even your hair to give you some kind of comfort and stress relief.

- Oropher's favorite thing to do is to always be touching your belly, and he doesn't care where he is at when he does it.

- He loves feeling them roll around at his touch, how strong they've gotten, and how big they are. Always wearing a soft smile on his face while he is touching your belly.

- When the elfling is born Oropher grows unusually quiet but he is certainly wearing a smile upon his face as he takes the time to hold his precious little elfling.

- He sits close with you while doing so, looking them over quietly and whispering out soft I love you's.

- His henning nature picks back up when Thranduil holds his new sibling, quietly directing him how to hold the elfling and telling him constantly to be careful and extra mindful of how to hold them.

- Oropher's favorite thing to do with the baby is to have them cuddled up on his chest and with you snuggled into his side, it offers him a sense of completion to have you both so close with him.
