aka. fili orc-enshield
+++++++++++++++++++
the scene, as i understand it, is exceptionally well-written. fili (in sort of a callback to the scene with the eagles), calls out "thorRIIIIIIN!!!" just as he sees the pale orc veer in for the kill. he picks up the severed arm of an orc which is lying on the ground, swings it up in desperation, effectively blocking the pale orc's blow. and thus, forever after, fili is known as "fili orc-enshield."
this earns him deep respect from his hard-to-please uncle. as well as a hug. kili wipes his boots on the pale orc's glory box. -- maciliel telpemairo

An excellent choice of visual muffins for our CG's very own basket.  Now I wonder if we can photoshop Rachel or Kate onto that Jessica Rabbit gown...

Of course now you must surely realize we will be..."affectionately relentless"...
You'd better invest in a cushion for your swoony head and some smelling salts.

i love both pictures, but i must confess, i was +particularly+ looking for that, specific kate one. a friend of mine (who is equally besotted with her), has that one posted amongst his facebook photos. it sticks out in my mind as a beautiful photo, and it was the first photo that i had ever seen in which kate was sort of... sexed up. i'm sure there were many in existence, i just had not come across them in +my+ travels. : )

I had many productive years developing my talents as a pesky little brother, and I've never stopped polishing them. I highlight my aptitude on resumes, and count insults about it as compliments.
There's an art to the process:
1. Eavesdrop on sister while she's discussing Wonder Boy (Ted, whoever) with her friends.
2. Wait until opportune time of maximum obnoxiousness. (This is the important part, kids, so take notes.)
3. Be ready to adapt previously used information to any context.
4. Now, apply the naughty taunt. Example: sister is studying with friends for biology test. Blurt out: "Biology? Isn't that what you explored with Ted last week? Or was that your anatomy?" But it could be math: "Weren't you asking Ted for help with functions last week? Didn't you two get fruitful and multiply together?"
Not that it really builds healthy relationships with siblings while young, but it does get even with them for any number of grievances you've had.

is that she comes already charged up with guy-appeal. Even that commercial with her where she glosses over her movie past while strolling down the street is sexy ("at age 18 I nearly drowned at sea, at 24 I had my memory erased" [or whatever she says; was focused on the visuals]).

Isn't it lovely?
We have Aragorn cutting athelas, a Mumakil, the CoH cover illustration, a map of ME showing Mordor, "An Unexpected Party" title, leaf-wrapped lembas, and a swirl of clouds. All the pictures touch on different themes our writers could develop their thoughts about - since it is such a wide-reaching palette!
Really we are all just so excited about this, and can't wait for reading and discussing it all.
