Evisse the Blue 08-19-2004 01:01 AM

Nope

Morsul the Dark 08-19-2004 02:08 AM

Smeagal

Evisse the Blue 08-19-2004 02:15 AM

No

Morsul the Dark 08-19-2004 02:19 AM

Faramir

Evisse the Blue 08-19-2004 04:29 AM

No. It's about a character at a particular moment in his life.

The Perky Ent 08-19-2004 06:18 PM

Gandalf? When Frodo offers him the ring, he's afraid to take it?

Evisse the Blue 08-20-2004 02:00 AM

Nope.

Morsul the Dark 08-20-2004 02:05 AM

Eowyn in the houses of healing about Faramir's love

Evisse the Blue 08-20-2004 02:10 AM

Good guess, but it's not what I had in mind

Hint: that particular moment in the character's life is not in LOTR.

Morsul the Dark 08-20-2004 02:19 AM

is it in the Sil? if it is Im out

Evisse the Blue 08-20-2004 02:24 AM

No, not the Sil.

Mariska Greenleaf 08-20-2004 02:31 AM

It sounds like Frodo to me...

Evisse the Blue 08-20-2004 03:24 AM

Close but no

Mithalwen 08-24-2004 12:44 PM

Bilbo's reluctance to hand over the Arkenstone?

Evisse the Blue 08-25-2004 01:19 AM

Oh dear. You got the character, but not the situation...

Okay, I'll give it to you!

(what I had in mind actually was Bilbo at the beggining of his quest, when he's torn between his Took side and his Baggins side.)

Evisse the Blue 09-10-2004 03:37 AM

10 days rule
 
Anyone who can come up with one can go!

Evisse the Blue 11-23-2004 06:54 AM

Here's a super easy one to get this thing going again: (geez, three posts in a row by me...)

That fits someone we know to a T...lol! So who is it?

Rimbaud 11-23-2004 07:59 AM

Gollum?

Evisse the Blue 11-23-2004 08:30 AM

That fits him too, but it fits someone else better...the 'T' part was a hint! ;)

The Saucepan Man 11-23-2004 09:27 AM

Turin Turambar?

Evisse the Blue 11-24-2004 07:08 AM

Yes, he's the one.

Treat us to some Beatles classic, SPM, or whatever else you desire! ;)

Elennar Starfire 12-14-2004 09:31 PM

Ten days rule...

Dying, dying to forget about you, that you ever lived,
There's a shade come over this heart that's coping with laying down to rest
I'm dying to live without you again.
Should be fairly obvious...

The Saucepan Man 12-15-2004 06:00 PM

Erm, hroom hoom. Sorry for forgetting this one. I was trying to find some lyrics that did not relate to Frodo, Gollum, the Ring, Aragorn/Arwen, Faramir/Eowyn or Turin Turambar. Took so long that I forgot to come back ... :rolleyes:

Anyway, is it Frodo to the Ring?

Elennar Starfire 12-15-2004 09:49 PM

Saucy's got it!

The Saucepan Man 12-16-2004 04:11 AM

Why thank you, Elennar. :)

Next up:

Have you seen your brother, baby, standing in the shadow
Have you had another baby, standing in the shadow
I was just passing the time
I’m all alone, won’t you give all your sympathy to mine

(Have you seen your mother baby - The Rolling Stones)

Who might have said this - and to whom?

The Saucepan Man 12-22-2004 06:53 PM

Hello?
 
I thought that this one would be rather easy.

Any takers?

Orual 12-22-2004 10:45 PM

Just a guess, but...Boromir?

The Saucepan Man 12-22-2004 10:51 PM

Nope, not him.

Elennar Starfire 12-23-2004 08:10 PM

Is it Faramir then?

The Saucepan Man 12-24-2004 11:24 AM

No. Not him neither.

Evisse the Blue 12-27-2004 04:49 AM

Brandir to Nienor?

The Saucepan Man 12-29-2004 11:43 AM

I was actually thinking of Glaurung to Nienor, but Brandir fits the last two lines better.

So you're up next Evisse. :)

Evisse the Blue 12-30-2004 04:35 AM

Thanks.
So it's me again....(I'm thinking of advertising this thread following the example of a couple of worthy Downers ;) ).

Ok, here's a cool line:

"I'm so far away that each step I take is on my way home..."
(Bon Jovi, Bed of roses).

Elennar Starfire 12-30-2004 08:36 PM

For some reason that makes me think of Beren, though Frodo is perhaps the more obvious potential answer.

(is that cheating? if it is, I'm very sorry)

Evisse the Blue 12-31-2004 06:15 AM

It's not cheating since it's neither of them. ;)

As a hint: this person is even further away from 'home' as these two, and is very nostalgic about it...

Hookbill the Goomba 12-31-2004 05:38 PM

Could it be Bilbo in The Hobbit?

Evisse the Blue 01-01-2005 09:26 AM

Not him either.

Hookbill the Goomba 01-01-2005 09:38 AM

Perhaps it is Feanor when returning to Middle Earth?

Evisse the Blue 01-03-2005 01:14 PM

Nope, but you're getting really close! Now think Third Age.

Hookbill the Goomba 01-03-2005 01:35 PM

Here is a guess; Gandalf? Talking about going to Middle Earth, or perhaps returning to Valinor?
