If Gal doesn't post soon, I'll look it up. I suspect you got it right, Princess.

Hrm... Hector... you do know how this works?
You're supposed to take every other letter out... And that sounds like something that Lewis just put in there, that nobody in particular says.. Although if anyone would say it, it'd be Jill. On the other hand, I am so so so SUPER excited to see interest in this thread!

Oops - I should have posted a new game in February *headdesk*
I'm on my Nokia currently and can't work on a quote from here. You gave hector his speaker (or thinker ), Midge, so feel free to post the next - I can do mine later. And hector, do come back to solve the next quote! Edit: Let's have a very small one - hector, do come and see how it works! "I/'/_e/_e_n/_h_m/./_a_e_/t_e_/a_l/_h_/w_y/_r_m/_a_h_a_n/./"

Hi, ayra! Good to see new players (although not new Mooters) in here!
Since I put "w_y", I also guess she means "way" Speaker is Cor/Shasta - and with "Raced", we now have the full quote! ayra, your turn!

Ha! Are you then that Eustace and Jill who rescued King Rilian from his long enchantment?
Tirian...

I know, it was an easy one, but I had my sister bugging me, and it was the only one that popped into my head...
Your turn, Midge

"W_e_e/_a_/t_e/_h_n_u_m_/g_t/_o/,/_/w_n_e_/?"
On a completely unrelated note, I saw a commercial for a tablet, and as it got to the "read a book" feature, it showed a one-second shot of an e-book. I saw these words: "Perhaps he's a coiner." "Yes, I've thought of that." Sound familiar?

Where has the thingummy got to, I wonder?
I don't know the speaker, but I suspect I might get it in two guesses Edit: And none of those two would be the speakers in your e-book, Midge

Man... I thought "thingummy" would be harder to figure out than that...
If you think you could get it, go ahead and give it a try! You are right... the quotes come from two different books!

I have an advantage you didn't know about - Thingummy and Bob ("who lave a hanguage that soes gomething thike lis") are two of my favorite characters in the Moomin books
I think the speaker is Eustace - and the thingummy he's talking about is a marsh-wiggle named Puddleglum - another of my favorite characters

Ha! Your speaker is incorrect. However, the speaker is talking about a Marshwiggle named Puddleglum.
Puddleglum gave me one of my favorite principles in life that I wish EVERYONE abided by: "Puddleglum's my name. But it doesn't matter if you forget it. I can always tell you again."

If it's not Eustace, then it's likely to be Jill ...
A name is something I very often don't get the first time it's given. If the giver doesn't take offense to you asking again, he's a good marsh-wiggle ...

Your turn, Princess.

Something more substantial to work with again:
