Suppertime
 

I've moved time ahead. Which has caused one problem. Falco asked a question that never got answered. If you wish to post Javan's and Léof's answer on this thread, I can add it to the appropriate place in my post. I should think that conversation could still be a lot of fun.

We could also get the boys to the supper as well... at last.

Celuien: What do you think? Another one of us (or Lommy) could bring the two to the table and describe something of their day. Another could then give us some more. And we might have at least Garstan and Stigend to be around.

Who could have shown them what to do in the morning?

We should bring the boys to the table. I expect they're rather tired and hungry by now.

I forget the name, but the shepherd probably showed them what to do in the morning.

Any other ideas?

Let's go on from where we started a week ago or something... I'll PM you tomorrow (RL) as I need to go to sleep now. If you have any new ideas please PM me.

Form do you want to get together and write a post of the rest of our walk via PM?

Lhuna and Lommy I'll write one for Frodides tomorrow (hopefully) at the end of which I can write Modtryth coming in and we can go from there if that sounds ok?

Agreed and agreed. :)

It could, indeed! But does that mean you want more than just a quick answer from the boys and a quick retreat? Do you want me to write something that Falco can answer to?

Firefoot, if I write something, may I use Leof?

Suit yourself. We just need to not leave it hanging like it is.

Sure.

Alrighty. Sorry it took me such ages to get around to writing this tiny bit.

Put this direction after "What duties are you leaving unattended" line. Don't bother with the 'Folwren's post' thing, either. I'd rather just see it added on without interruption.

-- Folwren

“We’re not leaving any duties,” Javan blurted out. “I mean, we were just grooming some horses. We came because we heard someone screaming.” He finally looked away from Lefun and Ritun and his eyes settled on Falco. They were still as round as saucers and nearly as large. Falco’s face wore a look of unveiled annoyance and Javan swallowed, abruptly realizing that he was still staring, even if it wasn’t at the twins. He dropped his gaze and looked at the ground, sending small glances up at the hobbit and then at Lefun and Ritun. “What did she scream for?” he asked.

The boys are back in town... :)

Just a few things.

Celuien:
- If there's anything in Garstan or his children you would like to see changed just infor me about it.
- Do you think the length of five days for the boys task is too long?
- I though we could now make at least two-three (shortish?) posts were the boys would in the end tell what had happened during the day and how the adults / Leothern would react to that. You think it ok?
- The last one with Leothern I just couldn't resist... If you don't like it, I'll edit it away.

Lmp:
- I thought lord Eodwine would be happy to be able to assign any help to someone who has actually asked his help. PR... I hope it's allright. If not, I''ll change those parts.
- I made Leothern learn the first letters: A, D, E, F & G. The list looked fine to me, but as I'm no cognoscenti in the matters of ME-languages (and that list came with gut feelings, mostly), please inform me if they should be changed.


Nice to be back again for a long time...

Will do nicely, thanks. :)

Well done Celuien! This is looking promising.

I'll come with something to roll this further tomorrow (RL). I have some ideas already, I just need time to write them down...

And Lommy, if you just have time and an occasion (narrationwise) feel free to step in.

Nah, I think I'll leave it to you two since I feel more like going home and eating than writing a post atm, and I won't have a computer with a net access at my disposal during the weekend.

Ok Lommy and Lhuna, Frodides has just sent Ginna and Modtryth off to the main Hall. Hope that the post is alright with you both, just poke me if you want anything changed.

Foley, the edit has been made and that post has been added to.

Take a look if you like.

I've also posted a new bit, introducing Garreth and Harreld's interest in the new serving wench.... ;)

That was just too funny, Elempi. :D

I'll try to get a post up sometime this week, perhaps after my three exams. :rolleyes:

Glad ya liked it. :D I had fun writing it. :D

Anybody else want to write? Feel free, no one's telling you not to..... (Elempi looks around the virtual room hoping somebody will step up...)

Doesn't Celuien's and mine latest activity count? :D

Be aware what you wish for! We'll be writing even more if you don't hold back your wishes! And then the thread will be filled again with kid-trouble... :rolleyes:

Yes. That's very true. :D

I can already see zillions of ways Cnebba will take offence as he comes to the table and sees the siblings having an eating competition from which he's left out... But that needs to await 'till tomorrow (RL) as it's too late again here.

Celuien: I just love the way you handle this!

Yes. But I want more. :smokin:

And the problem with that is......? ;)

As for me, I can hardly wait for Ginna to start flirting with Harreld and Garreth. :D

So flirting is the thing you need to be happy? :rolleyes:

Isn't Leothern good enough? She's better than most I've seen yet... :cool:

Haha! Fun stuff, everyone.

Elempi and Lhuna, I foresee some many problems with Ginna - besides the twins, poor darling. This could be amusing. Do you have a lot of plans for her and her misfortunes?

Well, if you're wanting so much for other writers, I'll see if I can write anything for Thornden or Javan. I've hardly worked with Thornden at all today. Tara, are you about?

-- Folwren

Surely you don't expect her to be at it right away, Elempi - not with Eodwine in the same room! :p

I hope I haven't done ill, putting words into either of the two's mouth.

Foley, I personally don't have a lot of plans. The more troubles, the happier, I masochistically say. :D

No, just an active rpg. :)

Lhuna, is it okay with you if Ginna and Modtryth had their meal together after everything's done with the meal in the hall and talked a bit? (Or that's what Modtryth plans, but of course there can be surprises...)

Sure. :) (Well, ignoring the "surprises" bit...)

Surprises...hmm...

Ginna's alone at the well. ;) Or is this not an appropriate time and place, Elempi?

I don't see why not. Frodides might have a thing or two to say about it, though. ;)

She doesn't have to know anything. ;)

Would you mind if Harreld goes there? (Ooh, Ginna's writer is biased! :D) I don't know what Garreth and the rest would think of that, or if it's more likely for Garreth to suddenly up and leave. Either of them will do.

Hmmmm.... this could be interesting. Harreld, eh? How bashful, versus how desperate, or how smitten is he? ;)

Oh she will! Frodides has eyes everywhere. :p

Ginna (nor her writer) has no idea. :p


Come now...it's too early for her to spoil the fun. :p

I might have had a bit too much fun with my last post, though. Feel free to poke, perhaps slap, me.

It's alright. Her writer is rather snowed under at the moment and has no intention of interrupting! I want to see where this goes. :D

Harreld needs to be more of a bumbling fool (I mean that in the nicest possible way :p ). I sent you a PM about it, Lhuna.

Announcement
 

I am going to take a leave of absence for 40 days, starting Wednesday. For the interim, Kath has graciously accepted responsibility for keeping things going at the Eorling Mead Hall. Please be nice to her.

Eodwine, Falco, and "Rilef" are going to go on a little day (or more) trip to the ruins. The twins, Harreld and Garreth, will still be around for supper. Handle them gently, please.

Any questions?

Well, yes...one, anyway, and only if you don't mind. Where are you heading for 40 days? A fast? Lent? (Or something like Lent, as you're not Catholic.)

Well, good luck on whatever you're doing. We'll be nice to Kath and gentle with your characters. I will anyway; I won't talk for the other writers.

Oh, makes me think of another necessary question - what do you mean by Gentle? Do not touch them much? Or, when we do use them, make very sure they're in character? Or, don't get them into too much trouble with the authorities? :P

Indeed,

It sounds like someone's either giving up the Internet or just RPGs for Lent. Probably a good thing to give up... though for me I fear it would be more of a cop-out than a growth in spirituality.

In other news: Kath, check your PM for a most-belated reply.

I hope you have a productive time (whatever that means for you) away, Elempi. :)

I'm not too confident about Ginna mingling with the twins without you, so perhaps she can just be a nice girl while you're gone. Or a busy girl, whichever works.

And I want to see just how that turns out without writing it myself, so we could perhaps just have the three avoid each other after the well incident?
