Phantom, that sounds like you speak from personal experience... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
I still have no date but now I begin to see the advantages of that position. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

*Mithadan prepares a large bullseye and tapes it to The Phantom's back, then passes out bows and quivers full of arrows to the Mods.

Not exactly. I saw it happen to my older cousin though, and he told me how to avoid it. Either 1. don't have a date, or 2. be charming enough that you can get away with anything. I'd like to think it's possible that I could pull off option 2, but since I'm a fairly nice guy, I wouldn't try it.
So, I can assume you guys will have your mouse on the "kill member" icon in case we get out of hand at the party, eh? [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] (don't worry about me though, I'm not known as a trouble maker- I'm just all talk and no bite)

Helka...I do believe I know how to comport myself with dignity so as not emabarrass and/or discourage the lovely one at my side. While she knows she is free to enjoy herself with whomsoever she chooses...(she does intend to track Mith down and dance with him).... [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] She will be riding home with me! And furthermore she wanted to ride with me! Yay me! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Talking of table arrangements, I think it would be great if there were loads of small tables (say 10 people on each), then we could sit in groups like really parties do sometimes. However, thats just my opinion.

What does everyone think?

Great idea! I know every few of the people here even though my first "death-day" approaches. I've been told by a certain person I need to mingle more.

Exactly, we can all mingle, its not like Fin has many escorts, LOL.

Cuthalion, you must mingle, get drunk and flirt, Fin will help you (god hes so annoyingly good at it, i hate him)

Mingling, eh? Why do I think your idea of mingling looks something like...

http://deephousepage.com/smilies/ladys-man.gif

Well, I am shocked and appalled.

To think that I, a respectable Lord of Mirkwood would ever do such a thing.

to self [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]how did she guess? I covered my tracks so well)

Oh my... what did I get myself into, Fin?

[img]smilies/eek.gif[/img] Egad! Who in all of Arda would flirt with me? (Other than my Maika of course)!

Too true for me!!! [img]smilies/tongue.gif[/img]

[img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img] Someone has trouble controling an overgrown Ego. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Oh, I would love to come to the party, but alas! no computer. *sigh* [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]
Remember to party for me as well!

*sobs*

Is it me?

Indeed, Fin seems to be the Gollum within, making me flirt away from my girlfriend.

-----------------

Fin: Dump ur girlfriend!

Me: No, shes my friend.

Fin: Your girl friend doesn't like you, no one does!

Me: not listening

Fin: joker, FLIRTER

Me: *sobs* Go away.

Fin: Ha ha ha

-------------------
help me!!!

*grabs Fin's neck, breakes it and cut's him in five pieces*

Any time Fin. Tell me when he recovers. Ill break his collar bone. With a spoon mwuhahahahahaha [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

Oh dear, it looks like Fin has been hurt. but don't worry ladies, with expensive surgery he should be OK.

-------

Fin: Fingil, add Helka to the to do list.

Fingil: immediately sir.

(to understand that you will need to read Pre-Party Stories)

BTW, thanks for the support Helka. I should be able to control him now

Shhhhhhh!!!! He's already afraid of me as it is. Don't make it any worse!

Mithadan, I promise. NO spiders this time. Honestly! http://66.227.101.70/contrib/ruinkai/biggrinangelA.gif

Honestly Maika, do you really believe that? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Spiders? WHERE!? *develops a nervous tic*

[ April 29, 2003: Message edited by: Cuthalion ]

Well, you DID ask Maika to come with you. But don't worry, she won't use the Tarantuala's. Or would she? [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

*Watches how Cuthalion's tick expands*

You'd better believe I did! Spiders or no, I'm the lucky one.

*licks lips

~* Hello, Helka . . .

We are coming to the party, too. Though Pio has told us we cannot bite anyone inside the Hall.

Savoring your company already.

~~ Carchmoroth, Dúgoroth, & Dûrêl

You have to keep saying that do you? Well I am the lucky one. So there. In your face and nothing you can do about it. Nanananana

Kinda childish, but entertaining nontheless. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Yay! Nice doggies... Could make it out for a quick lunch. [img]smilies/evil.gif[/img]

*raises an eyebrow* Entertaining? By what definition?

Hello Carchmoroth,

*draws his sword and knife*

You just tell your little rats that if they come within a radious of 2 feet of me or Amanaduial, that I will personaly cut of their reproductive Organs feed it to the fish and then cut them open and hang them as decoration from their intestants. And if you attack one of the guests, I will stick my arm in your mouth, place my fingres in your lungs and slowly pull you inside out.

You have a nice party too, you savage Warg. Dirty slime eating low bellied... what is that Aman? No bad language. Okay sorry.

*quickly wisperes "Rotten bastard" to Carchmoroth before walking away*

A party? Sounds great! It's about time I get to know some (dead) people around here!
Now the problem is, will I come there as a wizard or as a charming lady (which I really am)? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
p.s. looking forward to discussing with you, Annunfuiniel! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

[ April 29, 2003: Message edited by: Schmendrick ]

We love you, too, Man child . . .

*raises muzzle, sniffs the air

This herd of two-leggeds smells tasty, does it not, Dûrêl?

Come, brother. I've found that archer he spoke of. Let's play with her . . .

*stands in front of Amanaduial with his sword and knife out*

Be gone you bastard! Didn't I warn you? I will not do it again! Now back off!

Why not as a charming lady-wizard? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

A lady-wizard? Well, yes...why not? Definitely worth considering! Thanks! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
I guess I'm too used to thinking about wizards as having a long, white beard... [img]smilies/rolleyes.gif[/img]

Dwarf women have beards. Look at Bethberry.

Okay that was downhard cruel. Sorry Beth, just had to say it.

Helka, dude...digging that grave a little deep, arent you?

Dr Marileangorifurnimaluim scribbles notes wildly, cursing that she only thought to bring one scroll of parchment, and that half-gone, too. Confound it! I'll have to bring a backpack to the party.

Observations: Mating behaviour is already underway, prior to party. There appears to be greater inter-species concourse than originally suspected - subjects appear to know each other -

Possible refutation of Earensebrimbor's theory of inter-species incompatibility? First Age theory may not apply to Fourth Age politics, possible descrease in Elven population bringing about greater --

Wargs?

There are Wargs coming to this party?

Possible indicators of stress-induced interspecies interaction, may negate value of study -

Note to self - bring parchment. Ask Mr Ironlegs for loan of magical artefact. Stop by bank, withdraw funds for 'loan' of magical artefact. Research past studies on stress-induced relationships (re. 'Beren and Luthien: the Elvish View') to account for 'Warg factor.' Ask Mithadan if any dragons are likely to attend.

A discussion thread has been opened in Gondor which includes a very slim outline of events, a request for volunteers, and the Party Rules. YES THERE ARE RULES.

Oh yes, I think we'll have a lot of things to discuss, Schmendrick. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] At what time were you planning to make your entry at the party scene?
Btw. I would second Maika's suggestion: a charming lady-wizard sounds interesting! She would most certainly be a character which Annunfuiniel, Mistress of Annúminas, would be interested to meet. This Lady of Dark Sunset is planning to wear a ruby-red evening gown and decorate her almost black hair with red gems.
Ok, now you'll recognise me when I enter in (I believe I'll be one of the first to arrive). [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
Oh Helkaaaa...? If I remember correctly you talked something about owing me and that you'd do anything for me? Well, I'm afraid the "pay-back time" has come. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] Annunfuiniel is an untiring dancer so hope you're wearing good dance shoes...
*glances at Aman* Sorry, hope you don't mind me borrowing your partner. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
And Saucepan Man, you'd better take me to dance too, I've had so much trouble with your devious riddles! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

Marileangorifurnimaluim why dont you observe the strange hippo who thinks he will come waltzing into this party singing the hungry hungry hippo song and looking for a nice young lady to befriend him and his hipponess. that seems noteworthy to me

Well, it's decided then - a lady-wizard it'll be! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] Now I'll just have to start thinking about my/her dress...maybe the color of the sea (everchanging)?
And Annunfuiniel - I believe I'll be among the first guests, too.
p.s. Hippo - love your nick! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
