LISTED
Galadriel presses her fingertips against her forehead and sighs. One of her maidens gently touches her shoulder.
What is it, my lady? Galadriel looks up at the young woman and smiles reassuringly and stands, the other's hand sliding off her shoulder. Without being offensive she walks to the balcony high in the trees of Lothlorian. She hears footsteps behind her and smiles.
Celeborn... He puts a concerned hand on her shoulder and looks at her.
I can feel you growing restless... What is it that troubles you so? Galadriel pats his hand and looks out into the beautiful wood watching her people walk by, happy, oblivious to what she sees in her mind's eye. Silence seems to pass by, but Celeborn's face grows grim as Galadriel speaks to his mind. He nods understanding her burden and kisses her hand then leaves. Galadriel folds her hand touching the ring on her finger and bows her head in deep thought.
Galadriel ponders the future of Middle-Earth @ 11:40 p.m.

I-it's alright... Hum.... I finally looked up at Aragorn, desesperatly hoping my cheeks would be pale as before... In vain.
His hand was still over mine and I couldn't resist. I squeezed it in a quick and gentle move, trying not to show how much I was trembling...
How much I was fearing to be rejected.
Legolas has hope @ 12:34 a.m.
Saturday, January 18, 2003
A hand brushing against mine. No, not just a hand, Legolas's hand. I can't believe he'd have hands so soft... I'm sure I must have stared at his bowed head like an idiot, but really shouldn't be thinking this thoughts...
I heard him apologize, I suppose I should do the same.
D-Don't worry, it's me who is sorry...
But why does my hand linger over his ?
Aragorn had a funny feeling @ 05:11 p.m.
Friday, January 17, 2003
I nodded and smiled back softly. I didn't feel very well, not that I was sick, just tired and confused I think. I should have tried to sleep a little this night. But...
Thank you, Aragorn I said as he stood up. He smiled again and I got up too. In the movement, my hand brushed against his, sending sparkles into my mind and body. My cheeks went hot. I think I blushed.
So-sorry... I mumbled, looking down as I didn't want Aragorn to see the pink on my face.
Legolas blushed @ 12:42 a.m.
Friday, January 17, 2003
I saw Legolas glancing at the necklace Arwen gave to me in Imladris. I wonder why, I mean, we're just friends, I think. I wouldn't want to hurt him.
I looked at him and smiled gently. Don't worry so much about me, Legolas, I'll be fine. And I don't want to see you sad either. Now, maybe we should rise our companions and make an early start today.
Aragorn smiled @ 05:26 p.m.

After musing for awhile, Elrond decided to go for a walk to try and take his mind off things. However, during the walk, he found himself worrying more. He still doubted the group would be successful. Part of him had a very bad feeling about it in general. He decided, despite this, to keep his thoughts to himself. Surely there would be trials for the group to undergo, but he knew that he would have to have faith in them. For if he had no faith in the group, then who would?
Well, he thought to himself, stopping to gaze at one of the waterfalls. I couldn't have found a better group of bodyguards for the halfling, unless I sent every elf in Rivendell.. so I suppose that I will have to try.. to believe.
ooc: yes, he's being quiet, but well, I have no one to interact with so blah
Elrond was hopeful @ 02:42 p.m.
Thursday, January 16, 2003
I watched the Hobbits talking. Aww, they are so cute, it nearly brought tears to my eyes! Why can't I have such a chubby and loyal friend?
Don't worry, little ones. I'm sure we'll get rid of this fucking ring pretty soon and we'll all have a big party at my beloved home Minas-Tirith. Trust me!
I wanted my words to sound nice and comforting, but the Halflings only stared at me, saying no word and - turned around ignoring me!
I suppose I forgot to whisper...er...somehow. All the others woke up and threw very angry glances at me. *sob* Everybody hates me. I should never have joined them, Faramir would have been the right guy for this queer folk.
Boromir is depressed @ 01:41 p.m.
Thursday, January 16, 2003
Huh?
I opened my eyes, yet again to find Sam looking worried. I smiled to him.
Yeah, I'm fine, Sam. Nothing to worry about. You can go back to sleep.
Frodo blinked @ 04:42 p.m.
Thursday, January 16, 2003
I woke up by the sound of someone's footsteps...Who is that? I opened one eye slightly, to see Aragon hovering over Frodo asking if he is okay. When Aragon leaves, I tapped Mr. Frodo...Mr. Frodo? Are you okay? What happened?
OOC: Sorry I didn't post sooner! XDD;; Finals *sweatdrop*
Sam is worried @ 06:57 p.m.
Wednesday, January 15, 2003
Aragorn's voice surprised me after the long hours of silence. My heart jumped in my chest. I thought I haven't showed anything of my feelings but Aragorn seems to know me better than I believed.
I... I'm alright. It's just that... I don't like to see you sad. And I... I...
My voice died in my throat as my eyes fell on the necklace. I just couldn't tell him what I wanted to while thinking she was waiting for him...
Legolas doesn't find the words @ 01:17 a.m.
Thursday, January 16, 2003
We sees It, my precious, we sees it now !!! That filthy little Baggins has It !!! We wants It !!! We wants our Precious !!! We crawled close to him, but there's too many hobbitses and big ones, my precious. They will kills us !!! We must wait, until the hobbit is alone, and then we'll kill it and take the Precious from him !!!
Gollum saw his Precious @ 06:00 p.m.
Wednesday, January 15, 2003
I left Frodo to sleep after he assured me he was fine, not that I really think he is. But there's not much I can do for him. I thought I felt Bormir shifting next to Frodo when I went to talk to the Hobbit, but it must have been my imagination, as he was asleep.
Anyway, I returned to my place next to Legolas, and we remained in silence for a long time. I could sense he was angry, yet I didn't speak until it was close to dawn.
Is something upsetting you, Legolas ?
Aragorn senses Legolas's anger @ 05:44 p.m.
Wednesday, January 15, 2003
Elrond stood outside, leaning against a wall. He had been reasoning to himself, over and over. Surely the group would make it, would be fine. Still, part of him was left to worry for the future of Middle-Earth. He found it hard to believe that a small person such as a hobbit could handle such a task with the fate of their entire world on his shoulders.
No, he told himself severely, keeping a cool, level face. To any passer-bys, he would seem just as he always did. They will be fine. They have to.
Elrond tried to reason with his conscience @ 02:44 p.m.
Wednesday, January 15, 2003
Aragorn walked over to us, I thought he wanted to look after the sissy Frodo, but as he bowed over us in the dark he suddenly touched my ass! Man, I was so frightened! I quickly covered my balls and rolled over when I just noticed that he talked to Frodo. Well, I think he had mistaken me for the Halfling...graah! I'm gettin paranoid! I pretended to be asleep, but I still felt the bruises of Frodos feet...a damn uncomfortable night. I'm considering where to sleep next night. I'll avoid the wizard, he always smiles at me and blinks at me...*shudder* Scary. The dwarf...well, I mentioned that he smells funny. So maybe I should try one of the other halflings...maybe the fat one (I could lay my head on his belly). I don't want to get too close to the elf, I suppose Aragorn would slay me for that. He doesn't know that I don't fancy elves. I really should tell him. Yeah.
Boromir is still having a bad night @ 06:32 p.m.
Wednesday, January 15, 2003
I was startled as I heard someone walked to me. I opened my eyes and saw Aragorn. I looked around to see Boromir sleeping uncomfortably. I knew I kicked something. Aragorn bent down and asked if I was okay.
Yeah. I'm okay. I just had a nightmare. But hey, it was just a dream. You should get some sleep, Aragorn.
Aragorn looked at me, looking concerned. But then he walked away and took his place beside Legolas. I sighed and closed my eyes yet again.
Frodo sighed @ 03:45 p.m.
Wednesday, January 15, 2003
I hit the ground with my foot in anger as Aragorn left to see if Frodo was alright. I hate when Aragorn is like that ! I hate when he is sad. I hate when he says these kinds of things. I hate the necklace around his neck.
I hate when he is away from me.
The most happy hours of my life were when Aragorn was in Mirkwood with me. And at Imladris, even with the threat of the Ring, even with her being always around him, the same joy was in my heart. But now...
He doesn't seem to care anymore... His mind and heart are still at Imladris. And it hurts me to think about him and her...
Why do I feel so bad ? He is only a friend ! Or maybe more, so much more than that...
Legolas is confused @ 12:45 a.m.
Wednesday, January 15, 2003
No I haven't forgotten what it means, Legolas... And I know you're all counting on me... But, the Shadow is quicky covering everything, including the Star of the Evening... I said, while I fingered her silver necklace thoughtfully.
I was about to say something else to Legolas, when I heard some quiet noises coming from the campsite, like someone tossing in unrestful sleep. It was Frodo.
I walked over to him and knelt next to where he lay. Are you ok, Frodo ?
Aragorn is depressed @ 05:19 p.m.
Tuesday, January 14, 2003
Waaaaaaaaah, Eowyn ma hot chica is posting, ain´t she sweeeeeet????
Faramir is happy @ 10:20 p.m.
Tuesday, January 14, 2003
Rohan is living dark hours. My brother Eomer and his Riders have seen many Orcs running through our land.
I tried to talk to my uncle but he didn't listen to me anymore. Neither did he listen to my brother or his own son. He now only accepts Grima's advices.
Where is the one who will give again hope to Rohan and Gondor ?
Eowyn was worried @ 10:18 p.m.
Tuesday, January 14, 2003
Today i went back to Minas Tirith. Enough of Osgiliath and al those stinky orcs. My men will kick their arses. Harrharhaarr!!
When i came back my father was depressed again so i turned straight to my room. Then i saw the door of my brother´s room. I have to admit that i am a bit curious about him. Maybe he keeps some embarrassing secrets?? Anyway, his room wasn´t locked! What a fool! My father wanted Boromirs room to be kept as it was when he left Gondor. Harhar, my chance! In Boromir´s room there has been always standing a big fat chest right at the end of his bed. But it was locked with a padlock. Where could he have hidden the keys?
So i searched the shelves and found them behind his teddy bear. How easy!
I die to unlock it but i´ll wait till tomorrow. That´s the story. I am a good brother.
Faramir having a break from the fights @ 07:08 p.m.
Tuesday, January 14, 2003
The ringbearer seemed to have a nightmare, he rolled around like mad tonight and always hit me with his hairy feet. Next night it's my turn to watch! I only hope the mad dwarf doesn't want to share it with me.
I thought about my brother today. How's he doing in Minas-Tirith, I wonder? I hope he didn't go into my room to nose around.
I'm not offended by slash, my friends *ehehe* There are only a few couples that I hate, for example Gandalf-Legolas (who would think of that x_x;;) or Gimli-Legolas. But that's it. Do your Aragorn-Legolas-thing if you wish, but Boromir could get jealous ^_-
Boromir had a bad night @ 10:48 a.m.
Tuesday, January 14, 2003
My eyes opened quickly. My heart raced quicker and quicker. I just had the worst nightmare I had ever had. In my dream the dark lord Sauron had taken the One Ring away from me and he killed every one ... but me. I stood there staring at him, too afraid to do anything. Then he slowly pointed his finger at me and ...
I breathed quickly. Sweat drops poured down my face. Again I questioned myself. Why me? Why not somebody else? Why do I have to carry this cursed ring with me. Why am I the one who must destroy it?
I wanted to talk someone so badly right now. Someone who can understand me. But then I heard two familiar voices. Aragorn and Legolas', I believe. I sighed and laid still. I closed my eyes, hoping that I could take a peaceful rest.
Frodo was lost in his thoughts @ 02:32 p.m.
Tuesday, January 14, 2003
I was surprised to see Aragorn got up and walked to sit next to me when he was supposed to rest. He pulled his pipe out and started to smoke. He looks preoccupied since we left Imladris and I think the silver necklace he now wears around his neck is not stranger to that...
Then he spoke and I could hear the sadness in his voice.
There's still hope, Aragorn... You, more than anyone else, should know that ! There's many people counting on the Fellowship, on you... If you forget what your elfish name means, then we are already lost. I answered.
Aragorn looked at me but didn't answer. I wish I didn't offend him by my words.
Legolas tried to reason Aragorn @ 12:53 a.m.
Tuesday, January 14, 2003
The Fellowship fell asleep soon. Then I took my watch with Legolas. No point in trying to sleep, as my thoughts kept going back to Imladris, so I settled for talking with the Sindar Elf.
The time will come soon... Either light will prevail, or darkness will take it all... Yet, hope seems dim under the Shadow... I said. Perhaps not the happiest words I could have said...
Aragorn talked to Legolas @ 05:30 p.m.
Monday, January 13, 2003
Uh, guys ? This is Indil [aka Lilly]. A little message about er... slash references in this RPG.
Ok, well first of all Eärwen and I wish to know how many of you feel comfortable with Aragorn/Legolas pairing, as it is really the only slash pairing she and I actually support. But we don't want to offend or scare anyone by making A/L references and stuff, so please tell us how you feel about it.
And as for the other couples, er... personally Eärwen and I don't feel too comfortable with the other LOTR slash couples.
That'd be all. Have fun !!!
Indil aka Lilly @ 04:39 p.m.
Monday, January 13, 2003
Ugh, can´t write that much i am fighting a bajillion of orcs right now here in Osgiliath! AAAARGH! *shoots an arrow*
This disgusting ugly creatures make me sick, bah!!!
Faramir is stuck in Ithilien @ 09:03 p.m.
Monday, January 13, 2003
Finally we left that elven-village (forgot the name). Well, I didn't like it anyway. Why does everybody love those elves? They don't even seem to know what alcohol is! And the most annoying thing is this brat, no, this halfling (*cough*) who got the One Ring. Nooooooooo! Why not me? I'm a real warrior!
*sigh* I can't change it at the moment, but maybe later I'll think of a plan.
Tonight Legolas and Aragorn took watch. They make me feel like an outsider...leaving me among all those little guys and the old wizard. *sob* Alright, I somehow like the Hobbits, but Gimli smells strange and Gandalf wanted to sleep very close beside me...T_T;;
Boromir nearly choked on an apple @ 07:37 p.m.
Monday, January 13, 2003
Today we finally left Imladris, though it has been many weeks since I first arrived with the hobbits. Yet, my heart has no desire to leave that land, the very place which was a home to me in my childhood. And the place where my beloved dwells... But, I swore to protect the Ringbearer, and the hour for my destiny to be fulfilled draws near.
We stopped as soon as we say the hobbits could go no further, yet some of our companions seemed impressed they even made it that far on our first day of journey. We ate some food they prepared and set up the turns for watches. I should have slept as it was Legolas's turn, but I couldn't stop thinking of what I left behind and what would be coming.
Aragorn left Imladris @ 06:02 p.m.
Sunday, January 12, 2003
We left Imladris this morning, with the blessings of Elrond. We took the road to the South, the road to Mordor, and walked all the day. The Hobbits seem to have more energy than I first thought when I saw them but Frodo is really tired tonight.
We stopped near a little wood for the night. Merry and Pippin made us a wonderful dinner and now everybody is going to bed. I will take the first watch. Then I'll wake Aragorn up... and I'll probably stay awake with him. We haven't seen each other for a long time, it would be nice to evoke the old memories...
Legolas watched @ 11:52 p.m.
Sunday, January 12, 2003
*pokes* Does it work ? It seems... Well, sorry people if there are some broken pics but the images host in kinda a real pain !! ¬¬ But don't worry, it will be a moment when all the pictures will finally accept to load...
Have fun posting, enjoy your stay ! XD
Eärwen @ 11:35 p.m.
