HAPPY LAST DAY! ;D

In the apocalyptic Tolkien/every mythology ever/2012 theory crossover fanfic I never ended up completing, today would have been the day when illegally returned and be-Silmarilled Fëanor gathered with all the people who were willing to face the armies of the Valar, Maiar, Eldar, Æsir, angels and their opponents whom he could reach on short notice - i.e., a bunch of LARPers who just thought this would be a nice Yule battle LARP - in Bielefeld.
To actually face the armies of the Valar, Maiar, Eldar, Æsir, angels and, of course, their opponents.
And then tell them to f*ck off and go play somewhere else because the people of the Earth actually liked their planet and probably wanted it to go on, on the whole.

I don't know how he'd actually have enforced that demand. I always hoped that an idea would come during the writing. Perhaps it would have. It would have begun with Fingolfin - still considering himself bound by the "Thou shalt lead and I will follow" promise - and his friendly Noldorin army switching sides. After that? I don't have the foggiest.

At any rate, it would've worked. So there. Called it. (How original. :P)

Of course, the reasonable people among us know that just because a calendar ends doesn't mean time ends (or every 31st of December would be a cause for great distress). And 2012 theories haven't been fun anyway ever since Roland Emmerich went and made a lousy movie about the end of the world (but I didn't know that back in 2002, of course). But I still liked the idea of that story.
(Probably more than I ever would've liked the story, if I'd actually gone and written it at some point during the LAST 10 YEARS I MEAN THAT SHOULD TELL YOU SOMETHING.)

Anyway, Happy Last Day! ~~*cranks up the REM*~~ Rather, for
