They forge a bond because she doesn't treat him with cruelty and disdain like the other elves do, just as Galadriel did with
Kili took an interest on Tauriel and he showed her his emotions, and he shared his world to her, that's some of the reasons for Tauriel to fall for him. He appreciated her for she is and he shared his world to her without their races' prejudice.
However, Tauriel also has a "softer side", and her character arc includes a love story. Though she and Legolas first met as children, and their relationship is significant, her romantic arc is not with him, as she develops a mutual attraction to the dwarf Kíli.
In the end, Tauriel cries over Kili's body and gives him back the talisman. Thranduil arrives to see Tauriel with her dead love. Tauriel: If this is love, I do not want it. Take it from me.
But other than being a connection to the Lord of the Rings films, Legolas spends his entire journey chasing after Tauriel and demanding her to follow him wherever he goes, despite the fact that she is clearly in love with the dwarf Kili.
It is believed that after Kili dies, Tauriel becomes a lone rider and never loves again, she was so broken by the experience of losing him. Their love was real, and it was as strong as any other Middle Earth romance story.
Tolkien doesn't reveal whether Legolas's mother died sometime during the Second or Third Age, or if she traveled to the West, leaving Thranduil and Legolas behind. Legolas does not marry or have any children, based on the appendix of The Lord of the Rings.
Fili and Kili are not half-elf. They are the maternal nephews of Thorin Oakenshield, the dwarf, and are themselves dwarves of the line of Durin, the Longbeards.
Tauriel doesn't exist in the text, she was invented solely for the onscreen adaptations, and Legolas doesn't feature in The Hobbit book, and wasn't written until much later, when Tolkien published the Lord of the Rings books.
To me too, everything Thranduil has seen in his son is true: Legolas does love Tauriel. But Thranduil is also the King and cares about his lineage more than about the feelings of his son, so he will find an undirect way to forbid that love: by not allowing Tauriel to respond to that love.
'The Hobbit': Making Sense of Kili, the Hot Dwarf.
Tauriel is not royalty, or high-born. Thranduil is very royal, strict. He wouldn't let his child marry any old elf.
In The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, a romantic subplot develops between Kíli and Tauriel, a Silvan Elf who is a captain of Thranduil's guard in Mirkwood.
Kíli says to Tauriel “amrâlimê”, which I'm pretty sure is David Salo's Neo-Khuzdul. Tauriel says she doesn't understand it, so it's very clear it isn't Sindarin. “amrâl” – means “love”. It used the abstract construction aCCâC as seen in the Tolkien original khuzdul words such as “aglâb”.
Tauriel was a Silvan Elf who served as the Elvenking's captain of the guard alongside his son, Legolas. Tauriel and her Rangers were highly efficient in their patrols and kept the Elvenking's forest clear of spiders and other foul creatures that dared to trespass into the Woodland Realm.
'The Hobbit Trilogy' (2012-2014)
The love triangle between Tauriel, Legolas, and Kili feels forced and distracting, with its inclusion in the trilogy adding next to nothing, and arguably hurting the three films as a whole.
So when she allows this incredible rarity to Gimli, she essentially gives him the three hairs that Feanor demanded of her, because she has looked into his soul and found that he has a good heart and that he desires them for nothing more than to treasure the beautiful days he spent in her lands.
Kíli says to Tauriel “amrâlimê” […] “amrâl” – means “love”.
Kili only appears in the 1977 film, The Hobbit by Rankin and Bass. He has no speaking lines except for when he is talking with the others. He and the other dwarves are briefly mentioned in The Lord of the Rings as the companions of Bilbo.
After the death of Thorin in the Battle of Five Armies, Dain becomes King under the Mountain. He redeems the Arkenstone from Bard with a fourteenth of the treasure, which is used to re-establish Dale. Over the next three years, Bard rebuilds the city of Dale and becomes its ruler.
Kili: 18 (77)
No, neither in J.R.R. Tolkien's texts, nor in either the animated movies, nor in Peter Jackson's masterful cinematic works is there any suggestion that the character of Legolas the elven prince is gay.
“You gave me a very special bow, and I look after it.” In related news, sources reveal that I “had such a crush” on Aragorn, son of Arathorn, called Elessar, the Elfstone, Dúnadan, the heir of Isildur Elendil's son of Gondor.
