I've actually made contact with Scarlett now. We discussed sex-related narcolepsy. It was weird, but appropriate.

YES. I love the Silmarillion. I actually have all the Christopher Tolkien-edited books. Lays of Beleriand, anyone?

[keevacaereni.livejournal.com]

O_o That is an awesome topic.

I've not actually read those ones! I need to get down to the library sometime and borrow them. I love the Unfinished Tales as well, though.

[nombrehetomado.livejournal.com]

I thought so.

Oh, you should. I just adore Tolkien for his work and his complexity and gaaahh, he's just one of my literary heroes.

Oh, God, the world building. Middle Earth evolves and grows and argh. THE LANGUAGES. HE INVENTED A SET OF LANGUAGES THAT EVOLVED INTO OTHER LANGUAGES. The man was a genius.

I KNOW, RIGHT? *flails in linguistic excitement*

My sister once got me a book called "The Languages of Middle-earth" and I was SO EXCITED that I may have slightly ignored the other presents.

[keevacaereni.livejournal.com]

WOW. That book sounds awesome. I hope your sister wasn't too offended!

My dad officially had enough of my linguistic geekery when I tried learning Quenya. It didn't take, but it was so worth it.

[nombrehetomado.livejournal.com]

Oh, no, she thought it was amusing as all get-out.

Hee. I tried Dwarvish. My dad may have thought I had a cold.

This is a serious question, which requires a serious answer:

Elves or dwarves?

Take all the time you need to think about it, it's a tricky one. :D

[nombrehetomado.livejournal.com]

Aw, crap. Uh...err...thinking hard...

*takes a stand*

DWARVES. I love the Elves, especially in the Valinor times, but I'm going with the dwarves because of their origin story. I love Aule.

[keevacaereni.livejournal.com]

Aww, now, see, we have a problem.

Hm-hm. *puts on fanwank hat*

ELVES ARE CLEARLY MORE AWESOME AND YOU ARE WRONG TO HOLD THAT OPINION./shot

I joke! Seriously, Aule is awesome, even though Yavanna(?) was my favourite. The flowery one? It's been too long since I read it.

[nombrehetomado.livejournal.com]

AHA! But by your using "hm-hm" you are clearly on the side of the Ents, which means that you have chosen an unspoken third option, which means that you are a cheater, which is what Hitler did, you know!!1 *puts fanwank cap aside*

Oh, Yavanna was good too. And, yes, she was the flowery one. And I do like elves, I swear!

[keevacaereni.livejournal.com]

GODWIN'S LAW, N00B!!

Oh, I love the dwarves too, I think they got a bit of a short shrift in the books. Nobody loves the dwarves. :(

Night to you too! God, I'm knackered. Talk to you another time!
