*Meanwhile, the TLA members, fearing for the safety of the elves, (and wanting to be near them) dedided to invite them all to the west.*
Willow: (to a random elf) Come on, surely you want to come. There are beaches and mountains and all sorts of preety thing to play with. Elf: Neh? Willow: And trees, lots of trees pretty ones that glow in the dark! Elf: Glow...? *and so on and so on...* OOC: Wake up! This thread is dieing!!!!!! Start posting again or I'll pull one of my evil time jump posts! You know I will... *brandishes notebook threateningly* POST! I command thee!

OOC-Have no fear, Willow! TLA will be strong forever! Yep, Iamback. The evil real-life demon has attacked once more. Darn. Sorry.
BIC- Ren- You see,dear elves. This beautiful wonderful world has been made just for you. You must use it well. Let us show you. Earniel- You see, for example, this is a frog. And THIS is chocolate. Elves-Chocolate? Frogs? Chocolate...frogs...? OH! CHOCOLATE FROGS! YAY! Willow- Yes! We have those in the west! Many chocolate frogs! Follow us! Elves- YAY! *And the elves followed the TLA over to the west.* Tano *to Willow* You are such a liar. Such a great liar. Thank you. Willow- Hehe, no problem. *of course, the entire company arrives finding NO chocolate frogs. The poor elves were dissilusioned from the start.* Christiana- I NOTICE no asked for YOUR opinion!

Narrator: Three ambassadors were chosen, Ingwe for the Vanyar, Finwe for the Noldor and Elwe for the Teleri. And the TLA took them and showed them the two trees and they were amazed.
And they returned. And then all the elves went. First the Vanyar, then the Noldor and then most ofthe Teleri, but lots of groups of Teleri stopped on the way, because...ummm...I don't remember, but eventually all the elves were in Valinor. No chocolate frogs, but they liked the glowing trees. The Teleri dwelt by the sea with Elwe's bro Olwe, because Elwe disapeared in the woods of ME, The Vanayar and Noldor dwelt in a pretty white city, but the the vanyar moved to Valimar with the Manwe and Varda. And so lots of elves were born. Including one called...*drumroll* FEANOR! *cymbal crash* -pant pant pant- Last edited by Finrod Felagund : 11-04-2003 at 12:36 PM. |

OCC: i'm going back in time for a moment, on the boat over to the west...
Me sits picking at a splinter on the deck, human sits muttering to herself nearby. *Me crawls stealthily up to the crows nest where Tano keeps a look out (or so she says, though that's probably just an excuse for being up there)* Me: Pst, tano? Tano: Yes? Me: can i have my squeaky back? Tano: *despairingly* I would, like i told you before, if only you and Human wouldn't sink the ship with all your fignting over it. Me: but...but...I WANNIT BACK! Human: *zips up into crows nest and strikes an (off balanced) dramatic pose* Don't give it to her; she's a lier and a traitor! Give it to me, the true and rightful owner- *crows nest sways akwardly with all the people up there, the three lose balance and fall in a disoriented pile* Human: What a disoriented pile we find ourselves in! Me: eh? Tano: You're sitting on my foot! Human: No i'm not! *stands up* Tano: yes you were, look behiend you. *picks up a rather strange looking foot, with large toes suitable for climbing, slight webbing* Human: Woh! Tano: *proudly* I made it. Me: It's so happy! HUman: let's make a body for it, a wierd one! let's make another creature! Tano: isn't that against the rules? I mean, isn't the creation part done? Human: of corse it's against the rules! Since when do you follow them? Tano: good question. Ok i'm in. Me: *worried* i wanna help but... it's against the rules...? Tano: *pats her on head* no, it's not against the rules. Me: *smiling quickly* Oh, ok. *an hour later, anothr creature is in the crows nest with them. It is...GOLLUM!* Human: And it shal be covered in... SLIME! *slime appears* Tano: Wow, spiffy! Me: It's so...happy! Willow: creating more creatures? breaking rules? *twisted smile* sounds like fun- *sees creature* Ugh! what is that? Tano: it's a... um.... it's a.. well it was going to be a short creature with hair on it's feet but umm.. Me: it got a little happy. Willow: Happy? Gollum: GOllum. Human: Mwahahaha! It's a GOLLUM! WIllow: *snaps fingers, creature disapears* Tano: Hey! *grumbles* party pooper. Me: *sniff* it was so...so... Beautiful! *bursts into tears* Human: what is the meaning of this?! stand aside whimpy fairy! Willow: Whimpy fairy? I'll have to get you back for that. In the mean time, about your creature... i simply couldn't stand the stench of it for the rest of the trip. Anyhow, now that you've made it there's no unmaking it, i simply sent it to the future. *pats Me on the head* so it's not gone, it just won't come into existance until thousands of years later... probably evolving from the origional thing you tried to- Me: YAY! wait- a thousand years? poops. *begins to cry again* Willow: *uncomfortably* umm....how about i give you a name to make it up, after all ME does stand for middle earth, and you can't simply call yourself that forever... I'll call you goldiegollum, gold for the goldish tinged curls that are errr... *eyes her disarayed hair* popping out of your head and gollum in rememberance of your creature... Me: *puts on a brave face* Yes. I will live on in rememberance of him forever. Human: *pokes Tano* pst, can I have the squeaky? Tano: NO! *throws them all out of crows nest* much better. OCC: Sry if that's a little wierd but... It makes me happy!

*Ahem! To return from that brief flashback... I believe we were getting to the important bits.*
Willow: Finally, get on with it narrator. *Right anyhow, Finwe, king of the noldor had taken- Eru: Pardon my interruption but it has come to my attention that the current method of telling the story is not being particularily effective. I have decided that if you people of the TLA are to interact and take part in my world you will have to play by my rules. You will all be scattered and placed into exsisting roles that you must play in order to successfully complete the story, should you fail you shall be stuck in Middle Earth forever as slaves of the CANON Melkor. Do not fail. (And with these words there was a great wrench in the fabric of reality and each of the TLA found themselves suddenly alone with no notion of where the others were and with the knowledge that the game just got a lot more complicated, and serious.) *And it came to pass the Finwe, King of the noldor took to wife a maiden known as Miriam, who was wise in the ways of embroidery and counselling...* OOC: I apologize for that rather confusing switch, for furthur explanation of what just happened see the discussion thread.

OCC: Eh? I'm kinda confused but couldn't find the discussion thread so oh well.
*in the middle of climbing a tree in valinor, GG is suddenly picked up by the wierd wrench in the fabric of reality along with all the others and finds herself in a quite different tree... somewhere* GG: I'm all alone... sad day. ... GG: I want my squeaky.

*Eärniel suddenly found herself on a shore littered with jewels. The sea hit the shore a few meters away from her. White glittering towers could be seen rising from behind the dunes
Eärniel: Oh. *silence* This wasn't where I was 5 minutes ago. Eru: Brilliant conclusion. Eärniel: *jumps up startled* Aaah! Don't do that! I just don't get used to talking to booming invisible voices. Eru: You don't seem to mind the narrator. Eärniel: That's because he sounds like someone high on helium. And I ignore him for the better part of his existance. *I'll remember that* Eru: Now be silent and listen. I couldn't find a role for you that you wouldn't immediatly screw up- er- I mean of course that would suit your *cough* ..unique qualities. So I made you an extra. Eärniel: An extra? Hopefully you don't mean the extra sort of character that gets killed off in the first battle! Eru: Of course not. You've seen way too much Star Trek than is good for you, young lady. Expendable ensigns belong to a different continuum. Eärniel: *understands barely what Eru is rambling on about* Oh. Eru: Now be a good extra sea elf, run along, go build some boaties and don't bother me again. *Eru leaves to see if the other TLA'ers got in the right places* Eärniel: Okay, this is... interesting.... I suppose. Now what? *Howabout you go to Alqualondë that's right behind the hill?* Eärniel: Hey, who died and left you in charge? *I am a narrator, you are a character. Hence I can decide where you go. Eärniel: lay off the emphasis already. I'll go but only because I want to. *Whatever*

*Meanwhile, Elwe had been wandering in the forests of middleearth and encounted a beautiful maia*
Elwe: Wow. She's beautiful. *50 years later* Elwe: Ummmmm... hi? Melian: *startled* Errrrrr... hi. *hours pass* Elwe: Would you... would you like to go for a walk through the woods with me? I know of a beautiful crystal pool... Melian: Yes, i created that. Elwe: And there are these wonderful flying creatures whose song is the most beautiful I have ever heard, enchanting the heart... Melian: They are my children, the birds... Elwe: Oh... well, I found the most beautiful garden of rainbow things... Melian: They're called flowers. Do you like them? Elwe: They're the most beautiful things I've ever seen... except for you. Melian: *shyly* Do you... think I'm beautiful? Elwe: The most beautiful thing in middleearth! Melian: *sniffles* The other maia said i was fat... Elwe: No, you could never be fat. You're perfect! *Actually, she had been fat from sitting around in the gardens of Valinor too much, but her time in middleearth had made her exercise more and care for her appearance, becoming much prettier.* Elwe&Melian: WE DIDN'T ASK YOU!!! *sorry* Elwe: Is there anywhere you haven't been? Melian: I've never seen the sea... Elwe: Would you like to come there with me? I have my own little boat, and I can take you exploring the beaches... Melian: *shyly* I'd like that. *She held out her hand and Elwe took it, leading her through the forest towards the sea. And thus, the romance of a century began...* Morauko: *currently a formless cloud of 'soul' floating around through middleearth, watching her soon-to-be parents* Technically, there weren't any other notable romances that century. *Who's telling the story here? Besides, your only chance of gaining a physical form lies in these two lovebirds. So be quiet.* Morauko: Fine... *floats off towards the sea*

*Claevire, in the same situation as Morauko (that is, meta-physical and watching her future grandparents), wrinkles her nose.*
Claevire: Ok, I'm confused. Can I still be Vaire? And if so, can I still be Maedhros? And if so, then who on Middle-Earth chose MIRIAM to be my grandmother? *... Yes, yes, and it's your fault you chose Maedhros.* Claevire: Lotsa help you are. OOC: EEEE!!! Contacts!! ^_^ Am very happy. I have a blasted headache, but they're IN!!! ^______^

*Meanwhile and unexpected thing has occurred. Maggie, being unable to use her own body and unable to decide which character to possess has been reduced to a formless cloud of sparkly urple stuff. She has become an essence and being by nature completely neutral she has become the essence of Everything.*
Maggie: Oh not again, this is going to make my job really difficult you know this? *It's not my fault you're to indecisive to become anything other than everything, anyway you're the one who started this part of thee story, it's you're own fault you've become a cloud of sparkly urple stuff.* Maggie: Why you... as soon as I get my body back I'll... *You'll what? Remember, you won't have your body back for another age and a half at least.* Maggie: (glowers for a moment) Stupid narrator. Fine then, but I'm not staying like this. *Then choose a form* Maggie: Fine! I will! (And with that she flounces off to do just that.)

*Sauronkatt had spent this time hiding under Angband and reading the script again.*
Katt: Oh no, not the Essence of everything! Haven't we done this in the last TLA?

*Meanwhile in Alqualondë; Eärniel has been brought before Olwë, the Teleri king.*
Olwë: So... you wish to be a Sea Elf? Eärniel: Well, technically I am already a Sea Elf but the booming invisible voice dumped me here and I thought... Olwë: *raises eyebrow* The ... booming invisible voice? Eärniel: I believe you refer to him as Iluvatar? Olwë: Ah. Eärniel: Anyway he dumped me here, so I thought there's probably a very good reason why he dumped me here. I mean, obviously he didn't put me here because he didn't know what to do with me. Okay, so actually he said he did. But I bet he was just pulling my leg. I'm sure he loves a good joke at times.... I'm babbling, ain't I? Olwë: Sort of. How about you get to the point? Eärniel: Oh, yes. So until I figure out what part I'll be playing in the Sillymarillion, I thought it was a good idea to integrate myself in the Teleri culture. Olwë: I see. In that case you're welcome in Alqualondë, Eärniel. Eärniel: Thanks. So what do you Teleri do the whole day? Olwë: Basicly we sing a lot and build swanboats. As a Sea Elf I'm sure you share our skill and love for making music. Eärniel: *getting slightly uneasy* Er.. love for music, yes. Sort of. Skill? Ermmm....... *thinks: Perhaps this wasn't such a great idea at all...* *I agree. Shall I fetch my earplugs?*
