Holy Crap!

A death, in our peaceful little Mawlin? A death seemingly not of natural causes?
*with a fist shaking to the sky* Los Loup Garouuuuuuuuu!

And Mormegil, a monkey seeming to morph into a little girl?!?!?

Such goings on!

Holbytlass - Nothing definite.

Mormegil - His/Her profession of prior knowledge of mysterious chemicals is a shock to us all, I do think. What this will portend I don't know.

The guy who be short - Hum, hum, hum...he probably would have eaten our dear Mithalwen, so I don't really think so yet.

Gil-Galad -
Whoa, dude, settle down. Believe me, being too vocal is a terrible stnank.

Orominuialwen - Hasn't shown up on the radar yet.

Firefoot -
It could very well have been Miss Firefoot in the Parlor with the Rope. And the Knife.

Durelin - Few of my suspicions are belong to you.

Kitanna - Hmm...nothing yet.

Nilpaurion "I-Take-Immense-Pleasure-In-Professing-Hairy-Lies" Felagund -
My incredibly..."done by me" suspicious feelings have yet to be stimulated.

Feanor of the Peredhil - I'm not so suspicious of her yet.


This, doubtless, will change as time goes by.

I myself find it interesting that Gil attacks me and Kath supports him. I say it's suspicious activity and Kath goes suddenly silent. Seemingly attempting to be forgotten and severe her overt ties with her lackey Gil-galad. I always get dubious of someone who is so certain in their support (defense or offense) at this early stage. Kath's sudden silence is interesting. It might not mean anything for certain but it's to be watched and that's for certain.

Sidenote: Remember we are not meant to take the characterisations, given us by our mod, to influence our judgement. I early jested mildly with TGWBS, who understood it to my understanding, but to have serious doubt of somebody based on that is another. Be mindful that this not influence us overly much, okay.

Holbytlass has just left Hobbiton.
It has almost been 12 hours since Miss Marpelwen has ceased. Not on her own accord. And all have spoken except Sophia and Nilp, very puzzling. Maybe not enough time. I shall leave you all for about 8 hours or so.
Just one more thing, Oddwen, I am definite nothing of the lupine persuasion.

Due to RL demands (4th of July and all) I will need to either vote now or not at all. I would feel that it would be too great of a knee-jerk reaction of me to vote for old Gil. I am willing to give him the benefit of the doubt and presume him an inexperienced innocent who is as distraught as all of us innocents our at Mithawen's death. However I do find it disconcerting how willing Kath was to jump on that bandwagon and then dissapear after I mention the connection.

My current guess is that either Gil-galad is innocent and Kath is a wolf piggy-backing on an innocent or that they are both wolves with a clumsy strategy. I fully realize the ramifications of voting early but I feel that either now or never and I feel it my duty to cast my best vote albeit one with little evidence. But alas this is our current lot--little to no evidence. I feel though that Kath has the most suspicious move of the day. For that I vote

++KATH

If I am wrong I am sorry. I'm going on the best information I have and today we have a slim chance of bagging a wolf but perhaps Kath's behavior upped the odds in our favor a bit.

Pipe I beg your pardon, but . . .

It is I, Adam Smith, not the comestible Nilpaurion Felagund, who shall be playing with you.

Despite the fact that most of you expect me to play the suspicious character, I shall not, for it is not in my nature to be suspicious, especially when already under suspicion.

So there. Now that I have declared myself, you can have at me all you want.

I'm sorry you are quite so suspicious of me Mormegil but I'm afraid I was called away on rather urgent business (i.e. sleep and school) and have only just now been able to get here and catch up on what has been happening. I was not so much supporting Gil as mentioning that you seemed to have it in for him a little - which apparently equals 'Wolf!" in your mind. Also, I did in fact become a little suspicious of Gil's innocence myself:
Quote:
You feeling alright Gil? Or is it the wolfish tendencies in you coming to the surface?
Well to those who are siding with Mormegil on this I would just like to say that my absence had nothing to do with fear of being found out as there is nothing to be found out about me. I am completely innocent and to me it seems a little early to be planning lynchings when we have many hours left to post, look at evidence and vote. I think Mormegil is jumping at chances that are not actually there, maybe an avoidance tactic to get everyone on his side. Also, we have still not heard from Sophia. It seems to me a rather strange thing that Mormegil be so willing to jump on me when there is a member of the village still unaccounted for. I realise RL duties call him away but he did not take that into account when judging me did he?

I hope the rest of you realise that Mormegil is jumping the gun here and that I am entirely innocent.

As to my suspicions, I would still like to hear from Sophia and maybe a bit more from Nilp as his only post claims he is here as his alter-ego, so we already know he's in two minds!

Quite so Mormegil, though i won't jump to Kath's defence as of yet, though i'll still defend her once and awhile, but not now (no hard feelings) though i'm still waiting for the other non-talkers

Mmmm, I wish I had looked more closely at that post before. I don't if my vote would have changed, but who knows.

I'm not sure how I can put this, but I will try. Morm says he'll give Gil the benefit of the doubt and that "he is an inexperienced innocent" and then it turns out Gil (the first that is) really was an innocent. Maybe Morm was telling the truth and thought Gil was innocent. Or maybe he knew something the rest of us didn't. This could all be a coinedence or Morm just slipped in his keeping his identity a secret. I can't say for sure, at this point I will say I'm still suspcious of Morm as I was yesterday. I'd really like to see what he has to say about Kath...

I'm also curious about TGWBS and Morm being the first (and with amazing speed) to respond to Oddwen's death. But once again that doesn't actually mean anything. But the cross post was interesting...
