There are three types of fans! Those who can count, and those who can't!

Hardy har har.

I think the line between the 'world' and the 'story' can easily be blurred. They don't exist as two separate entities in my mind. Although it does happen that a thought along the lines of, "boy, it sure would be nice to live in Rivendell, as long as I'm not an Arwen," does pop into my head. I suppose based on that I can say that I somehow am drawn to the 'world' more. (?)

I'm a both fan myself Lush. I love the stories and the World of Middle-Earth as well, and usually at the same time. Though I do sometimes wish elves and hobbits were in this world. *sigh*

I sometimes find myself thinking "What if I popped into Rivendell; what would happen to me? Would I be killed as an orc or as a spy? Or would they let me stay there? Or how much I could explain to them with my few words quenya vocabulary?" After thinking about that for a while, I usually realize that it can never happen... *sigh*

I would like to land in Rivendell (I hope be spared I hope), learn proper elvish in time and then teach them concept of a piano

It seems all other kind of musical insturments are know there already. Imagine what elven made piano would sound like?

I suppose they'd do things with it that we humans don't even think of. And I mean just playing tricks, nothing else!!!!
