Ah, but you see your permission is neither valid nor wanted in this little situation. What say should you have as the proposed grooms Mother? I am the closest male decendent to the propsed bride and I shall have customs followed!!!! (4! ). Eomer has been nothing but flippant on the matter.

Mormegil; but now that you mention it, it wouldn't make a bit of difference: we're an infatuated young couple who don't ask for permission.
I demand a redress of this insult or he shall have my vengence.

LMP so there really is no other point to familial ties than mirth and merry making...it's working well

One, I would hardly call it a "dastardly scheme".

Two, I'm sorry, but you can't help it. You married Sleepy, who is most definitely my uncle. He is too much like me not to be related.

You used to be a great match-maker, when there were a couple of neighboring villages.

But those villages got destroyed by Werewolves, leaving you with a very limited pool of options for match-making.

"Retired mariner", eh? Perfect.

Since I am a young adventurer, we are kindred spirits, morm, despite our difference in age. Over the years, I've spent many an evening in your house listening to your tales of danger and excitement on the high seas. In return, I have kept you up to date on the happenings in far places that I have seen on my adventures.

A few years ago, we agreed that before you died you would take to sea one last time, and take me with you and teach me all you know about sailing.

That's the idea, brother.

At first I was content to be a loner, but when I saw all of the unions taking place I realized being a loner would make me a target the first couple days. This isn't about making for a better story- this is about survival! I am desperately making every possible connection I can. It's been a looooong time since I played in a WW game, and I would really like to survive long enough to have some fun.

One, Sleepy has just informed me via AIM that he is not, and never will be your uncle.

Two, Sleepy and I have set up no rules about family voting, so you'd be fair game anyways.

Sleepy isn't my true uncle, eh?

If that is the case, then that must mean that Sleepy was adopted, and isn't the true son of my grandparents. Hmm... was foul play involved? Someone must investigate.

lmp, will you list and summarize all these familial connections before the start of the game? I'm no hobbit...very confused am I.

And as for whether my family shall influence my voting, I am afraid it shall not at all. As I have stated before, I am rather eccentric, and I feel my only loyalties are to my little dog Fufu. And even my sister Celuien...deary me! Such a pretty girl she was! I don't know what could have inspired her to throw it away and marry that...that...that...MAN!

He's always trying to take my cooking pots for outerwear. Mamma and I taught little Celuien so well, but ever since she married her kitchen is always in total disrepair! No, I'm afraid I believe any of the crazy people in this village capable of anything, except, of course for sweet little Fufu.

Ahem. Morm, dad, let's not forget her father, my dear husband the SPM. Surely he, as her father, should be asked for permission.

Ah, the youth of today. Whatever happened to tradition?

Sigh. You and dad never did like him. But I'll defend him through thick and thin unless there's overwhelming evidence to his guilt. The same goes for my girls.

Nice work, Hookbill.
