Nuru, I smiled the entire time while reading this.
Hmmmmm, Chairlie?? *grin* Then Aylwen, we have much in commen that I did not know. CHairlie is all right as displaced heirs go; but the songs about him are positively SUPERB.

"A wee bird cam tae oor ha' door..."

Gee! Maybe in heaven, you, Nuru and I could do a **long** campfire session. Nuru can lead all the Irish stuff, you can lead Prince Charlie, and I'll throw in some odds and ends.

THe three of us play guitar, Nuru and I also play fiddle and whistle... this could be **good**.

Helen, why not? Along with other dear friends of mine who'll throw in other charming instruments. It does sound fun... just don't make us too anxious to die.

I have had a startling revelation.... The Saucepan Man named himself inaccurately, for the last word should be entirely erased. He is no man... he is in actual fact a pan... The Saucepan.

Whew. How the threads do grow after a few days on holiday.

Quote:
Saraphim is a 21 years old girl with short red hair, which reach down to her blue eyes. She has some freckles around her nose and cheeks. She is tall and slender and she spends her time either reading or jogging. She is a vegetarian but every now and then, on some special occasion, she enjoys a big greasy steak. Saraphim is very sharp but she doesn't brag with it and she is always there to help his friends whatever the problem was.
Quote:
Saraphim: (If I've done you already, then me image has changed.) YOu, my dear, have long white/silver hair that hangs down to your waist. You always, however, wear it in a smooth pony tail. Your skin is very pale, and your eyes are a deep indigo, almost black-looking. YOu wear a lot of baggy black clothing, including a long black wool coat reaching to your ankles. It almost (but not quite) hides a pair of boots not unlike Aragorn's. (I *do* realize how far away this must be from what you really look like.)
Tee Hee

But both have some close points.

I've got dark brown hair that only comes to my shoulders because I'm growing it out from a fit of the scissors. This is not nearly as exciting as what you two have dreamed up, but I do indeed pull it back as much as I can.

I'm not very pale; sort of a light olive complexion. I do have freckles, though. My eyes are like my hair, dark brown, and what with my involvment with the Nearsighted Elves Society, framed by exeedingly thick spectacles.

I am tall and rather thin, mostly because I do indeed jog (when I'm not reading, that is) and I'm not so much a vegetarian as a health-food nut, so I'm sorry to say that steak would become a grilled chicken in the amount of time it took the elves to decide that orcs were unfriendly.

As for my wardrobe, Sirithheruwen has it mostly pinned down. Se my post earlier, the first or second page, for more about that. But change the long black coat into a white one and you've got me.

And Nil, your witty little vowel switch had me snickering and giggling for a while. I never thought to re-translate 'seraphim' after I switched the vowels myself. It has sort of the opposite affect, doesn't it?


And Thorongil, you now look like Cloud to me, but a Cloud that prefers to spend time at the computer or library.

I think that Esgallhugwen has red hair. Even though it is a bit sad that she didn't look more like the Dark Queen
*ding ding ding* And Imladris gets it right! My hair is auburn, but since everyone just calls it red, I suppose its red. I agree that it is sad that I don't look more like the Dark Queen, boy would that be fun!! Mwahahaa

So lets see with everyones deductive reasoning I think you've practically pinned me down as to what I look like, though I kind of gave away my height, but thats a minor detail.

Long red hair (thats slightly wavy, and just barely touches my derriere), brown eyes that carry a certain wistfulness at times, though can be kind. I'm thin and stand at 6' 1/2". I love to read and help others when I can.

Elennar Starfire your image of me is that of a doll, I didn't think my personality really fitted the button nosed type, or the dimples for that matter. But thank you none the less. Let me see, you have hazel eyes and dark hair thats just below your shoulders, your probably average height or so, and you like to wear the colour blue.
