Cool, thanks!

I have so many questions about Feanor that all stem from Finwe. Like, Finwe is supposed to favor Feanor above all. What does that mean with regards to how he raised Fingolfin and Finarfin and their sisters? How could Feanor doubt his father's devotion to him? Was Finwe really ignorant of the growing tension between his sons? Did he do anything about it? I just . . . I would have such a better understanding of the whole Noldor rift if I knew more about what kind of father Finwe was -- what kind of king he was. The only thing we really know about him is that he wanted a bunch of kids and he loved Feanor best.

I do think the psychology of losing his mother explains a lot of Feanor's fears (which is fascinating in itself) but Finwe really should've stepped up and done something. He seems so passive in the narrative.

But, I agree about Feanor being the "worst" of them. He seems so self-centered in a lot of ways. He clearly loves his father but he's also possessive and jealous of that love. He shows no emotion when he basically burns one of his sons alive and he betrays his brother, who just committed a terrible crime at Feanor's bidding. And he has no idea what kind of fate he has unleashed upon his sons. He doesn't think it through, and yet he is consistently the beloved of the Noldor.

I find fics that explore his time in Mandos -- or anything that forces him to confront his actions -- to be endlessly fascinating.
