The name "Celebrimbor" could just be a name, and not have some ulterior meaning.

I think it means "silver hand" so I am supposing his hands flash like silver, or it is a statement about his amazing prowess in craftsmanship. I suppose we've just gotten spoiled by Celeborn having silver in his name and on his head! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] (Doesn't Celeborn mean "silver tree" or something like that?) Maybe Celeborn should have had a tree growing out of his head! [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
Anyway, a
plotbunnie I do know, although I've always spelled it with a -y and not an -ie. So a
Nuzgul is merely the LOTR form of this, eh? I do indeed remember from the few (very amusing!) chapters of the OFUM fiction I managed to read about "mini-balrogs"!

Meir Brin (also on FF.net) has an outragously funny story called 'Master Suelove' How I came to love the 'Sue. *snort*

Verrrry amusing idea! I wonder if it is structured like "Dr. Strangelove" or not? (haven't looked for it yet) As I recall, Dr. Strangelove was adapted from a book that was completely serious, real Cold War scare stuff, and yet, they managed to make a biting comedy/satire out of it! Ah, but I have my own plotbunnie/Nuzgul to work out, so...
I take my leave. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
