Frodo has a half-elf, half-hobbit child* - Take two shots Fellowship reunites - take a shot There's another dragon to kill or it'll ruin everyone's life for realz - Take a shot Author admits to never having read the books and based it on the movies - take three shots and cry * Found this one floating about and I laughed quite hard.

You know, I might take it on as a personal challenge to write every one of these items into a single story (minus the slash/sexual parts) and thus create some kind of mass-comatose binge.
It'll have to wait until I can get the next post for REB III up...which has been in the works for, what, 10 months now?

Wormwood liquor...is that the same thing as absinthe?

Yes, it is. Yet in context with Elves in trees and branches, I went with the 'wormwood' connotation instead. But as they say, "Absinthe makes the heart grow fonder."

A so-called friend sent me a link to a blog which hosted a story with the following elements:
Arwen is really Aragorn's long lost mother... somehow. They enter into a romantic relationship anyway. But then Aragorn falls in love with a magical woman with "amber eyes." Magical woman with amber eyes kills Arwen in some sort of... duel. Then random hilarity ensues when Thranduil shows up and claims magical woman with amber eyes. And Legolas gets involved on both sides. Somehow. Oh,and Aragorn just sort of cowers and mopes through it all, and composes bad poetry that sounds kind of like a Nickelback rip-off. Seemed like a trollfic, but author was defending it rather viciously in the comments. Then it was deleted. So if you're wondering where I've been, the short answer is "in alcoholic stupor."

*The Dark Elf smirks*
Nerwen, somehow I knew you'd want to be in on this conspiracy. So, what do you think, a true epic farce with stunningly bad elements, or just a stunningly bad epic drama? Or is the line between the two so thin it doesn't matter?

Not really... a stunningly bad epic drama is a farce. We must have angst!

Great! Nerwen, Mithalwen, Kitanna...we have the makings of a wondrously...ummm...banal...classic! I should think a few more contributors (roleplays tend to get rather muddied and confusing if there are more than 6 or 7 full-time characters ), and we can start planning.
I'm thinking of creating a half-elven character -- with a twist. You see, my mother, an elf of Doriath, was raped by a dwarf in the sack of Menegroth. Growing up a short elf has been rather hard on me, and the fact that I have to shave every day to look like the other Elves is quite grating. The other elven children used to taunt me and call me "Perenaug". Naturally, I have grown up to be an embittered elf with an axe to grind (quite literally).

Hmmn... perhaps I could take up your suggestion from a few posts back? My character is Arwen's blind sister. I have the Mary Sue version of blindness– meaning it causes me deep anguish, but no practical inconvenience whatever. In fact, I'm a much better archer than Legolas.
