Aw!

I know of Pumuckl but not enough to know how well that side of the crossover works, but the Silmarillion side is very sweet. (Though I am having a chuckle at Aule trying to speak Bairisch... and that chocolate pudding makes everything better.)

Does Pumuckl/Curumo go back eventually?

 

Thank you <3

Pumuckl was one of my favourite TV series growing up and I still love it (it's on Prime now, at least in Germany), though I didn't ever dream of writing a crossover like this.

Pudding is the perfect comfort food 😋 and Pumuckl loves pudding. Theres an episode where Pumuckl makes pudding, which of course doesn't happen without some trouble because Meister Eder can't cook and Pumuckl's 'help' is not that helpful.

I headcanon that Ainur who walk among incarnates would try to fit in language wise, but Bairisch is a dialect with a lot of local variations, so Aule sounds bavarian but not quite right for Munich.

I think he might go back after Eder dies, he's staying because he got attached to that one human. (Though there's a charming new series with Eder's nephew now that really kept the spirit of the old one.)
