Okay, so, since no one has objected to it, would everyone please tell me which person you would have selected for your cure yesterday/last night if you were Sam?

Probably Bom for me. He came out of the gate acting as if he'd known you for years. That, or he's been stalking you here. Uncanny, I called it.

If you'll recall, I actually remarked on that yesterday. Old member, new account? Longtime lurker? Certainly seems to know whose back to scratch anyway.

Exactly.

I am here. Alas, my velcro shoes came off and I floated off into space for a bit, but all is well now.

Which is to say, I was seeing my brother and sister-and-law off at the airport on a late flight, and because they're both loonies who couldn't organise their way out of a paper bag, there were many, many hassles. Didn't get much sleep.

I'll give my thoughts in due course.

I've only been lurking since . . . sometime late last year? I forget. But I latched on to phantom the first time I saw him . . . reading Tol-in-Gaurhoth I and being amazed by his deduction.

Anyway, yeah, given that phantom had impressed me so much previously, I went straight to following him around. I just hope I don't turn out to be blindly following a phantlob.

Anyway, were I Sam, I would've cured Lhuna.

I'm here, and my brain is 'sploding with words, and only some of them have to do with Fea's awesome/hilarious nickname.

Zil: It's been a while since I've played with him, but something strikes me as off...not sure yet, but he tops my list.

tp: The way he labelled Wilwa and I innocent yesterDay made me think that he could be Shetom, preparing excuses for links between him and future Spiderlings, but I think he'd choose different people if that were the case. Since he's tp, unexplained assertions really wouldn't go questioned, no matter who he chose to unexplainedly assert things about.

Fea and BomTom strike me as innocent. And fun. But for the purposes of this post, primarily innocent.

Everyone else is just sort of hovering in the blackness like some sort of unidentified thing that hovers. UFOs, they are...

EDIT: xed with BomTom

phantom, dear, you never cease to amaze with your uncanny powers of interpretation.

How you jumped from "Will someone please hold my hand?" to "Lhuna is either Shelob or a Been-Stung" baffles me. Well of course there were a lot of other skippingstones along the way - which you enumerated - but I dare think that if my first post didn't give you that idea, you would have reached a different hypothesis about me. Or reached the same hypothesis, but felt less strongly about it. Or ignored me completely.
