Oh. No, you don't need to stop. It generally doesn't bother me. Last night I was tired and grumpy and getting sick, that's all. Besides, I had gotten the feeling that I was annoying you at one point (entirely on accident), so I felt suddenly defensive and worried.

Yes. I am easy to tease. At least, I'm fun to tease. I don't know why, I just am. Everyone tells me so. *sigh* My sister says it's because I take everything so seriously - is that why?

Nah, it's a 'we like you' thing.

Oh.

Well, I apologize, then, for my remark of last night. I should have known it was wrong, what with the sort of attitude I was in.

Elempi, I have an actual question about game, though. This entire post isn't going to be deservant of the chat skwerl.

I was originally planning on having Thornden address Leof before talking to Eodwine about helping him in the stables. But I don't think Thornden would talk to Leof until he knew if Eodwine had anything else in mind or if he approved, or whatever else. So, what I'm thinking of doing is putting Firefoot on hold (sorry) and talking to Eodwine first.

Or do you think that Thornden should talk to Leof first? I don't know what should happen. Thornden knows Javan would like to work with the horses, but he's not sure if Leof needs help, and I can't tell who he would talk to first.

Yes. And you are very earnest, which is part of the above.

Unnecessary but accepted.

I think it's in Thornden's character to make sure that those in authority approve of his plans, so I would expect him to go to Eodwine first, then once approval has been given, he will with (the greater) confidence pursue his objective. Sorta like you.

Ah. I see.

Haha! Okay, thank you. I think you're right. I just began to write my post and I had an idea this afternoon to fix all my problems, I think. I hope to be able to get it up this evening sometime.

My brother with his wife and first child are here. My brother and his little son are so cute!! It will be because of their presence if I do not get a post up today.

Edit: Aha! There! I did it. Firefoot, your character has been addressed, and Elempi, yours has, too. I decided that I could use both my characters instead of one. This will certainly be interesting...having two to look after.

I wish I had time to phrase this in a nice happy tone, but I don't.

I will definatively not be around until further notice.

Pertaining to the story: I changed my mind about Saeryn running away. I hadn't had time to let you in on it, LMP. Her trip is critical to her story. She does still need to go find out what happened to her family. But now isn't the right time, either for character or writer. When she goes, Degas will be with her. And when they go, it won't be the same exact time I'm chiming in to say "I will definatively not be around until further notice."

Sorry to make you edit posts/story thought. And sorry for the short notice disappearance.

I'm out.

[Thinlómien]

I will try to write one post before Christmas, because from the 22nd onwards I won't be around for more than two weeks. (I'm visiting family/relatives in the countryside.) But I promise to be back next year and flood the hall with posts. Or, at least, post something.

Okay, I'll change my post to show that Saeryn and Eodwine have agreed, off stage, that until Feanor is ready to take up pen here again, she has agreed to stay at Meduseld under Queen Lothiriel's fosterage, as it were. Best I can do in any way that fits the plot threads that we have so far developed. I hope it's okay. I'm sure that the indefatigable Fea can figure out how to extricate Saeryn from such a prison....
