Okay, pretend they are still in middle earth, and the Fellowship is there and everything, but, they have kids!

I can see Legolas saying, "*gasp* a microscopic germ! Hegolas, go take a shower immediately!" What do you guys think? Can't wait to see your funny ideas! Would Treebeard call me hasty?

Frodo: *seeing his child proposing to his honey* EEK! What have I told you about jewlery?!

(THis is supposing Frodo had children...I know he didn't)

Here's my bit.
One day in Fangorn, Treebeards son finds a rusted ork axe on the ground. He picks it up and brings it to his daddy.
Bushbeard: (lousy name I know) "Daddy, what's this?"
Treebeard: PUT...THAT...DOWN...THIS...INSTANT! Or...as fast...as...your...entish...arms...can.

*A loud crash is heard in the White Citadel*

Arwen: ELDARION!!! THAT WAS MY FAVORITE VASE! HOW MANY TIMES HAVE I TOLD YOU NOT TO USE THAT BOW IN THE HOUSE?!?!

Eldarion: B-but mother, Legolas said the only way I'll get better at archery is if I practice! Dad said the same thing about using my sword! *fingers the pommel in a Gollum-like manner*

Arwen: AHHHHHHH!!!! YOU'RE BECOMING JUST LIKE YOUR FATHER, UNCLES AND YOUR GRANDFATHER!!!!! AHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Eldarion: Eh.......speaking of Uncle Elrohir and Uncle Elladan, today they're going to take me orc-hunting with Dad!!!! *runs out of the room cackling*

Arwen: ........ Eldarion may LOOK like an elf, but he has a human's brain.....

One day in Tuckburough, six year old Faramir Took made an interesting discovery.....

Faramir: HEY DADDY! I'M REALLY SMART!!! Wanna hear me? Please? Please? Please?

Pippen: Oh alright.....

Faramir: Yay! Ok.....um..... Postatem obscuri lateris nescitis.

Pippen: Wow…..that’s “You do not know the power of the Dark Side.”

Faramir: Yep! *sees Frodo Gamgee playing with marbles* FRODO!!!!

Frodo: Yeah?

Faramir: Utinam barbari spatium proprium tuum invadant! = I just said “May barbarians invade your personal space!"

Frodo: THAT’S MEAN!!! *pouts and starts playing with the little gold ring he found*

Yes, it is Latin that little Faramir Took is speaking!

Alright guys, the responses have been hilarious so far. Thanks. I have another one.

Gimli is brushing his looooooong beard, and he hits a snag (nap). "Ahhhhhhh!" Little Gimlion comes running.
"Ada, what's wrong?" "What have I told you about that word? You are not Elvish." says Gimli.
"But Ada, Uncle Leggy says I have an Elvish spirit." "So?" says Gimli. "Ahhhhhhhh!" (Giant ripping sound) "There. Got it out." "B-but dad, there is a huge bald spot on your chin!" "So? Go shoot some arrows or something. Learn some Elvish lessons. Just get out of my hair!" "But dad, what hair?" "Arrrgh!"

I guess a 3 year debate about haste follows?

Vanwatholiel · 04-26-2004, 07:51 PM

Looky here. (no, it's not a typo) Of course the members didn't have kids until after the War of the Ring. Hey, did Legolas or Gimli ever have kids? Dooes anybody know? Tell me!

Saraphim · 04-26-2004, 08:28 PM

Merry, Pippin and Gimli's kids would be the naughty type.

They would sit around in a circle in the basement and smoke pipe-weed (true That 70's Show style) and convince little Legolas Jr to get them into the wine-cellar, because he is the only one of the offspring anyone trusts.

Faramir's kids would be pyromaniacs because it skips a generation, and because of Eowyn's energetic DNA. But they would also be shy. Quite an odd mix.

Morgoth's child would catch bugs and corrupt them. Where do you think mosquitos come from?

I can imagine Sauron's kid being able to change forms, but he would end up as a little everything: a werewolf puppy, a vampire fledgling, a little fiery eye...

Little Krima Wormtongue would throw things, valuable or not.
