It was my understanding that the Been-Stung was still on the side of good until fully turned, thus the first Night's victim in order to be faithful to the rules and alliances should have done whatever possible this day in order to get Sam to turn him back.

Except that you said I thought Lhuna was "not Shelob at all", but only the Been-Stung. I said she could be either.

This is correct.

I'm trying to decide if I should tell you whether or not they made their saving throw.

Oh, okay, then I misunderstood. My apologies.

Boro- I'm okay with Glirdan as a dark-shot I suppose, and giving Sam a save at Lhuna. If it comes back empty, I'd have her on the menu for later. If a successful cure is made, I will dance a little jig and sing the told-everyone-so song.

Will a successful cure be in the narration? I don't recall reading about that.

It bothers you now, but you'll pat me on the back later. You'll see.

I'm voting Glirdan if no one else suggests something good.

Highlight, Nog.

EDIT: ha ha! x-post + already fixed

EDIT: Just realized Glirdy is who I listed on my early list as Doctor. *facepalm* For once I hope I'm wrong.
