Poor Harreld, the perfect victim to get strung along by a maiden who can't make up her mind.

Lhunardawen · 05-30-2008, 08:25 PM

Both Ginna's and Lhuna's jaws dropped. Ginna immediately closed hers - she knew this was coming all along. Lhuna did, too, but her mouth stayed open.

"What?" said Ginna to her writer. "Don't tell me you didn't expect something like this."

"I did," scowled Lhuna, "but the reply's more my problem than yours. You're not the one who has to stop laughing long enough to post your answer." And with that she laughed, much to Ginna's resentment. Her ordeal was not a laughing matter. She frowned at Lhuna.

"Oh, no, it's not you," explained Lhuna between fits of giggles, "it's just that I think Harreld had spent too much time with Eodwine." She sobered up suddenly. "Well, then again, it must be, if they're staying inside the same man's brain. Speaking of Elempi...I hope he doesn't mind waiting. I'm not really in the best position to respond now; I shouldn't even be writing this loony post. It certainly isn't helping me with my paper."

"And besides," Lhuna added, with a conspiratorial grin at her character, "maybe you wouldn't need to respond...yet. Or someone might make it easier for you to make up your mind. Who knows?" She winked at Ginna.

Huh. You remember stuff I forgot.

Er, didn't you know? "Dear one" is a typical Eorling turn of phrase.

My, that was a heavy post between Eodwine and Saeryn, was it not! Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

How could I ever forget the post that practically doomed Ginna into being?

You're welcome, and thanks for joining me. I had been having a bit of a trip by myself and thought maybe I should get others to come along.

The next post(s) coming from me will have to wait a few days. Apparently the situation's more complicated than I think, or maybe I'm just making it complicated for myself. In any case, I ask for your patience.

And at the risk of being called a hypocrite, I think I'll beat Elempi to the punch:

Helloooooo? Where are all the writers?

Yeah, I was noticing the slowdown too. Well, Foley being absent will necessarily take its toll on Javan, Thornden, and Saeryn. The Oeric/Scyld dialogue is fascinating and I can't wait for more of it! Erbrand's storyline is going apace, and with the hunt taking no doubt hours, the rest of our storylines are going to have to catch up time-wise. Rowenna can simply be considered to be dismissed from the women's tent to go help Frodides and Kara with the kitchen work; that doesn't need a post.

I think what most needs doing at this point is a post getting Crabannan into Scarburg to meet Eodwine and so forth. Gwath?

Gwathagor · 06-01-2008, 09:16 AM

Indeed. I agree. I had hoped Javan would be able to lead Crabannan into camp, but with Folwren gone, that might be difficult. Should I just use Javan a bit? Any other ideas?

Groin Redbeard · 06-01-2008, 09:57 AM

I'll see if I can get a post in later today, but I'm waiting for a response from Nogrod and Lommy about an idea I proposed

Feel free, Gwath. If Foley sees any problems when she gets back, you can fix them later.
