This is Willow, too lazy to switch users.
Right, right... I've been poked. Um, is it just me or are we moving in different time zones here? Cause I'm pretty sure the Maeglin lives in Gondolin for a couple centuries before Tuor comes. I was figuring that those of us already in Godolin have just been hanging out until the people with Maeglin come at which point we would all hang out and plot and stuff until tuor came at which point things would go ka-blooie. Sound about right? Anyway, I'll post now.

yes, good point, good point. I quite forgot about who got there first.

Oh, yes, the time zones are quite screwed up. What do you expect from, well, the use of a semi-magical remote control?

Official doublepost: Very nicely done, Willow. Just had to say it.

Thank you. It did turn out rather nicely. And you lot didn't believe me when I said I'd left the honey behind...

All the long set-up for the story and the whole Maggie-needs-her-own-body-back-issue is resolved in two little lines! Still, in echo-ing CC: nicely done, Willow.
Katt, if you want to seduce Idril, let CC give you the go ahead. Since he'll technically be her husband afterwards I think he has something to say for Idril.

Grack! Good point Eärniel. Kitty - later, please? Thank you.
So does this mean we go back to real Earth now? The official purpose of this trip is over, after all

I know, I know. But the reason that started all of it off is gone now...
I wasn't seriously suggesting a quick end leaving Mr. Nelson to his own devices. And Gondolina's prisons are very nice. Spacious. A bit wet, being below the water line, but spacious.

Um... hello. *waves gingerly* Hi. I still exist. I love you guys.
I was rereading TLA the other day, and... wow. My posts were so freaking BAD that I cannot BELIEVE it. But I suppose I should cut myself some slack... I was only eleven. Anyway, I was seized with the urge to let you all know I exist. *administers hugs* ...bye...

Elf girl! *hug* Come back to us! And for an elevn year old I'd say your posts were really good. Mine weren't much better as I recall and I was 15 at the time. Existence is good.
And yes Earniel, just two little lines, don't worry though Mr. Nelson is still plenty of issue for us to handle.

Well, I'm not going to post because I'm in 2 centuries of jail. Others can do so though.
Hi Elf Girl. I'm new since you were last here, but I have read the other 2 threads and can say I'm amazed you were only 11 at the time. Definitely good posts, regardless of what you think of them

You were only 11?
You made up for it by putting yourself in the MOST responcible and adult role in Tolkien: Gandalf. That obviously helped you act... not elevenish. (11ish not elvish)

Pippin: What about Elevenses?
SO, what the heck is going to happen when we all meet here?

We meet, you deliver your message to Turgon, hit on his daughter. Thanks to Saurokatt you have a few years to settle down with Idril and have a son and then Mr. Nelson's attackforce is grown enough to trash *sniff* Gondolina.

Oh lovely. I get to have kids. Well, kid.
Anyone feel like *cough* posting? I really don't like posting twice in a row.
