Werewolf XLIV: In the House of Tom Bombadil - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

For Rikae:

I'm not a wolf.

And don't worry, I really am not a wolf. I promise.

I hate first days; they seem so silly and meaningless until after they're over, and then there's tons to analyze. I really should vote before I get to bed, because I have to work until two (DL is at one my time) and I probably won't want to get up early and vote. But I have nothing really to go on, just silly banter and half-hearted accusations. I'll think about it a bit and then come back.

Hello, everyone. I'm sorry for my lack of contribution so far, but I've been in class all day– my previous post was made in a a tiny window of opportunity and with my tutor breathing down my neck– I don't think I've started the term very well...

Well, I've skimmed the thread– and what a tangle we have here. I need to read in detail before I can form any opinion.

Back soon.

Okay, I've read a bit more now.

First up, Thinlómien–

I still can't see anything at all wolfish in her early baiting of Gwath. It looks perfectly innocent to me and I can't for the life of me see why Menel seized on it. However, I agree with Mac and Boro that this

doesn't look too good– protesting too much and could be read as a double– bluff. On the other hand, she might be getting nervous under pressure– it happens to innocents too.

I'm going to have to vote in the next 15 minutes, since I'll be in history class (19th Century Paris, if anyone is interested) during Armageddon -- I mean, the deadline.

I agree; first days are rubbish until they're over, after which they're just cryptic. Hence my hesitation about calling anyone out yet.
