YES!! Khamul definitely should teach the Military History! Viv wants at least ONE class with her uncle. He'd be ideal at teaching this subject I think, albeit perhaps a little biased in the telling of history. And Bumble has Phil. Excellent!
Shah, I have just posted a rather open-ish post about Ray & Viv a few hours post-race.They've attended the jewelry-making class together already, and afterward went out and had a nice picnic lunch, then etcetera. I'm trying to get Viv caught up on her Monday a little bit; we're kinda falling behind in the time line without the race. And - everyone - Listen, I do my best to coincide times, places, other people, schedules, etcetra as best as I can. There's a lot going on all over Tharbad, and a lot of characters doing different stuff, sometimes at vastly different TIMES even, so just know I'm doing the best I can to keep it all in context.

It's certainly hard to keep track of things sometimes - I should know, I almost put Rian on Hwesta just now, when Hwesta is far away with Ty on the sly, as BB calls him

The picnic post - I added some stuff there. Shah - you around tonight? If you feel up to it, it'd be cool if you wrote a little dialogue to fill in the part where Viv and Ray are talking about stuff at their picnic. The gist of it I put in the post, but I'd love to see what you write 4 both Ray and Vivvie.
Next, I gotta write a conversation with Gordis/Aiwendis and Viv. Unless, Gordis, you want to start it out. I'm not sure what to have Aiwendis say, when Viv asks her what's on her mind and troubling her lately. Lady M, Viv'll be a great student for Mahtaliel, since she loves jewels and precious metals so much. She'll be an avid student; besides, Viv has all sorts of miscellaneous gemstones she's collected throughout the years that could definitely use settings. I know! Viv can get into making hair things. Viv loves bejeweled barrettes. And necklaces; she loves Liz Tayloresque necklaces. And rune-inscribed rings...

Nice post, Lotesse I like this: "her own heart itself having suffering from a confusion of interest." Good description.
'Hair things", hey? Rian will like that.

I've just closed the 3rd Discussion Thread and split off these posts into the fourth.
Well... those Nazgul are being such sweethearts lately. The ML is just SO understanding... makes me want to cry. Say - I have asked someone else about handling Oreturion. I actually asked two, but one didn't think they could make the time commitment. The one who was interested sounds like they need to wait until this semester ends (I wonder if they know they'll have another semester starting in the spring).

I think he is just being practical, he wants Aiwendis to carry out her task and do it WELL, instead of making scenes that will surely distress her even more and prevent her from fulfilling her mission. I hope this future Oreturion was speaking of the Real Life semester, NOT the RGP one? The latter will never end at this pace. Lotesse, Liked your post. I hope the ring will prevent Vivvie from becoming fat! I shall try to post, but if I don't (I have VERY LITTLE time now), please, let Aiwendis be as non-committal as possible. She is going to confide in no one. |

*Points up* That was your 1000th post Gordis.
Val and LMM, where is the talk between Oreturion and Mahtalliel happening, is it in the library, or her office?

Eärniel - I really liked your post! I like how the Pereldar question is complex and seems to have no one answer - or has a different answer, depending upon your background. I'd like to hear more of rpg-Eärniel's thoughts on that issue as things go along.
I was interested to see your take on the Pereldar being more common than I had them being! I basically had only added one elf-mortal marriage to canon, but you seem to have added quite a bit more since you wrote "for Alagos and RÃ*an had hardly been the only ones of mixed marriages whom Eärniel had counted among her acquintances in her youth." Interesting! Your - "She had not interrupted him when he had told her -quite frankly- that she had been wrong, even if she was still of another opinion in the matter!" Par-DONE, but he did no such impolite thing! He only said he THOUGHT she was wrong, which IMHO is quite different. It indicates an open mind in the matter, IMO. And he was only talking of his opinion of those particular women, based on their responses, plus repeating Tolkien canon on the attitude of Elves and keeping things the same. But he is certainly open to her opinions and would appreciate hearing more, because he likes to hear thoughtful opinions and think about things. Your - "She did not assume she knew what the real causes had been for his misadventure with women. " Obviously, they were just inferior women for WHO, I ask you, could RESIST this charming and wonderful young man?! Or maybe he spent too much time fletching around them ... ("keep away from my feathers, woman!" ) Your - "Perhaps she could never know or understand fully how the Pereldar thought or felt, but she was sure she knew enough in which ways the full-blooded Elder responded to them, having been in that same position." I just noticed this - WHAT?!?! DO tell more, you heartbreaker, you!!!

My dearest RÃ*an, you assume too much.

But don't worry, RPG-Eärniel doesn't think he was rude, she's more amused by his stating than she was wrong, than angry. It's not because they're all Elves that they can't have a difference of opinion, eh? Quote:

Thanks, BB ! But editing is cheating... I should have noticed...
I will cheat though, thanks for the advice. Lotesse,, I like your post very much. You have a good idea about the forge. I hope it will work Mahtaliel will be furious! Nice posts, Rian and Earniel and LMM and Val. Val, has Oreturion left the library for today? Will he tell the Chancellor he has finished? Last edited by Gordis : 11-30-2005 at 04:38 PM. |

Yes, congrats on your 1k! I've mooted with you since I first registered, and it still trips me out that you've only just know gotten 1k. I'm glad you liked the forge-intern idea! I just now added a tiny bit more to wrap up the post; sometimes I have interruptions on this computer since it's not mine - I do this at my boyfriend's office, and when he wants me off the computer I have to get off IMMEDIATELY, SO annoying. What I want for Christmas is my own friggin' laptop.

So how does a full-blooded Elf respond in day-to-day matters to the Pereldar? Alagos - "Pass the butter, please, Eärniel" Eärniel - "You don't know your own mind, you half-breed! How do you know there will even be butter where you might end up going?!" Nah, methinks you protest too much .... (rpg-Eärniel had her eye on Elrond, didn't she?!?! )
