do you ever look at how stubbornly loyal Fëanor’s sons were to him, and to each other ie this was a sibling relationship style he encouraged in his house, and think about how fiercely devoted his own siblings could’ve been to him if only he’d given them half a chance and an ounce of affection—and, given how feral some of them turned out to be, how he probably would’ve liked them just as much in turn. And how a united Five Man Band of the children of Finwë could’ve caused just SO much trouble.
