...what do you/he say regarding the whole Kinslaying business? He may be doing good things *now*, but surely not everyone has forgiven and forgotten the fact that he, his family, and his followers *killed other Elves?* Not to mention the Oath they swore! What happens when he next gets news of a Silmaril's location? Won't he and most of his government just run off chasing it and bring destruction with them?

~DF, apparently... not quite a Feanorian supporter after all? Must be a more practical day.

Indeed it can be . 8D


Heh , I had a dog named Spike back years and years ago . Part dacshund and one of the most disobediant canines that ever lived .

Ooohhh , how sweet of ya ! Thank you .

Caffeine ! Yay !! Thanks a bunch .


Spinoffs ...... hmm , if I did , I've forgotten .

However , I'll wind up finding something here fun to read as I typically do .

Awwwwww , thanks for the advice ^U^ I'll make a note to stock up on extra noseplugs , just in case . Bwah ha haaaaaa !!

BREAKING: National Geographic has today reported the simultaneous discoveries of the first complete sauropod trapped in amber, and positive proof of the existence of Yggdrasil the World-Ash...

hS

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE okay I'm done now. XD

Anyway, I honestly didn't think amber fossils could get that big - nor did I think they'd bring up the possibility of finding an entire dinosaur preserved like this. Most likely it'd be a baby specimen, since as far as I'm aware, amber doesn't get big enough to encase even the smallest adult non-avian dinos.

Apart from that, though, hS basically covered everything I would've said. My inner palaeo-nerd is so excited! :D

And WOW, you're almost twice as old as me! Man, life sure is full of surprises sometimes. xD

Anyway, have one of my own shed feathers and a complimentary kit of Spikes! :D

-Maedhros is fully committed to stopping the worldwide climate change planned by Morgoth as part of his "Burn the land, boil the sea" schemes. Thingol apparently believes that if we just ignore Morgoth, he will go away.

-Maedhros recognises the value of migrants. The first settlement of mortals in Beleriand was in lands held by House Feanor, and Maedhros' brother Caranthir welcomed the people of Haleth into his lands. Maedhros promotes integration between Elves and Men to bring about a brighter future together. But don't let Thingol fool you into thinking Maedhros wants Beleriand to be "swamped" with mortals! Maedhros promises a firm but fair approach.

-Maedhros promises equal rights for all: Noldor, Sindar, mortals, and dwarves (firm friends of Lord Caranthir). He believes in allowing the diversity of the Free Peoples to flourish. Thingol would have everyone speak his language, and submit to his culture.

-Maedhros believes that moderate weapon controls make for a safer Beleriand. Let the swords and bows hold the front lines - there's no need for them in the peaceful lands behind the Leaguer.

-Maedhros vows to improve the infrastructure of Beleriand. Take a look at his lands, filled with paved roads and well-organised townships. Compare them to Doriath, where the roads are overgrown - or spider-infested - and there is nowhere to live but trees and caves. Who would you rather have planning your village?

-Maedhros has good relations with the other realms in Beleriand. Fingolfin is his uncle; Finrod is his cousin; Men and Dwarves have shared his borders; even the Silvan folk pay fealty to him in Ossiriand.

Thingol claims Maedhros' lost hand makes him weak and sickly - but we all know his left arm is stronger than both of Thingol's put together.

Thingol claims Maedhros' Valinorean speech makes him haughty - but we all know that's simple racism on the Greycloak's part.

Thingol claims Maedhros lives in an isolated fortress, disconnected from the common folk - but we all know Himring is the heart of the Leaguer, the citadel that all roads lead to.

Thingol claims Maedhros is tarred by his father's actions - but we all know he's just intimidated by someone who stands by his kin, instead of (for instance) wandering off into the woods and abandoning them.

hS, apparently a Feanorian agitator what is the world coming to?

Insofar as there's a firm dividing line between 'feathered avian dinosaur' and 'feathered non-avian dinosaur', the presence of a flexible bony tail is it. (That and teeth, I guess, and maybe hand-claws.) This is something the size of a small bird which could swish its tail from side to side. Awesome.

It's also one of the very few Mesozoic dinosaurs we have colour information for; this shows most of the state of the art from last year. And it's not black! It's a lovely chestnut on top and white underneath.

The feathers themselves are apparently arranged as a fan down either side of the tail, like we see on Anchiornis and Microraptor specimens and in pictures; nice little confirmation that that's not a preservation artefact. And you can see for yourself that it's superfloof. I wonder whether this was from an adult (which would I think be among the smallest Mesozoic dinosaurs attested) or a juvenile? The paper suggests juvenile, based I think solely on it being small.

The paleoart showing up attached to the story is very nice-looking, too (though it's not from the paper, and I don't think it was made for this story; not sure though).

All in all: yay!

Please accept this finely-crafted starter Pokémon:-

Iiiiiiit's Golduck!

And your starting item is:-

Chakram Barrage from Ascendant!

Chakram Barrage is a bit of a weird item. It allows you to deal extra damage at the end of every turn via a multi-hit attack - it's Steel-type, Special damage category, and the base power of each hit is 18. Now, you tend to see this on Skill Link or Technician users to boost the damage output of the skill, but it can definitely work on Golduck. The standard special set applies here: grab a Modest one with Swift Swim and give it EVs in Special Attack and Speed, then kit it out with Rain Dance, Hydro Pump, Ice Beam, and Psyshock. The extra damage from it can be very beneficial; however, it comes at the cost of a more conventional damage-boosting item like Life Orb. Still, the important thing is always to have fun. =]

Feathers have incontrovertible proof.

I reckon we needed some good news.

Please have a pot of black-hole coffee.

Weell, I got a last question to ask before welcoming you to the madhouse: Did you read any spinoff already, and if yes, wh
ich was your favorite?

Haha! Just kidding!
There's no blood here! There are no baths, either!
There are only smiles, and happiness!
And a constant, all-pervading, horrendous stench, because, as I've established: no baths. We all smell horrible.

Now, see, I've read Das Sporking. They're a bunch of legends.
What I haven't read is Literary Travesty or Skepkitty. So, cheers for the introduction!
Unless I hate them. In which case: um. Er, thanks for the introduction.
But I'm sure I'll like 'em!

My gift upon you, as is tradition, in these parts: a noseplug!
For that absolutely wretched stench. Quick, put it in, fast! Before your nose hairs begin to melt out!

Forgot to mention , yeahhhhh , those carrot jockeys were pretty funny .

I've already those and the Wiki stuff but I'll forget it all in no time .

I'm still partly stumped about the fandom thing . Hmmm , does watching WWE SmackDown count for anything ?

I don't RP or cosplay or LARP , so I'm probably boring to a lot of people .

Twitter and IG made me late replying ( bad me ! ha ha ! ) but thanks to you & everyone else welcoming me here . Online nice people are grrrrreat . 8D

Fandoms ?? Sorry , I get confused easily so you might have to explain that to me . xp

And sorry for replying late , I was looking at Twitter .

Welcome to our corner of the interwebs, have a Bootstrap Paradox Pocket (If you could get that to past!me it would be greatly appreciated).

So you frequented the Library of the Damned? Herr Wozzeck got his start over here.

Might I ask your fandoms?

(Oh, and don't worry about your age, one HG has you beat. )

Hello, and welcome aBoard! For your newbie gift, take this plate of freshly-made SPaGhetti!

If you haven't yet read them, may I point you towards the Original Series and the Constitution? They're pretty much the only required reading around these parts.

And ooh, another fan of Cake Wrecks! The carrot jockeys were one of my favorites.

Glad to see you've decided to drop by and say hi! :D

Hi , found the PPC by way of reading / searching for badfic . I'm more of a reader and lurker type than somebody who could help others out with writing ( although I don't mind , btw ) .

I've liked reading badfic for awhile now , especially those with Mary Sues involved ! and thanks to Das Sporking , Literary Travesty , Skepkitty and various sporkings / MSTs at FF.net , have found and enjoyed many including -


Harry Potter - My Immortal . Karaoke Night .

Invader Zim - Dibra and Dibra rewritten . Lost and Found . Love Knows No Race .


Crazed Writer's Danisha / Frollo Freak series .


MLP Magic is Believing .

( the Frollo and IZ stories are my guilty pleasure reads . )


One story I'm missing terribly , if anyone knows where I can find a reposting or any way to read it again is the Lorax fic called ' Being In Love With A Fictional Man ' which is about a Mary Sue named Diana and the Once - Ler . It was deleted / removed from FF Idk when and Skepkitty's MST of it was taken down from The Half World too , so I'd LOVE to find a copy somewhere online !!


More info about me , well , hmmm ........ I recently moved to a new house in early October ( it's not really new but it is to me , ha ha ! ) . I like animals . I like goth & alt & Harajuku type things , horror movies , weird stuff , Pokemon , etc .

I also adore the Cake Wrecks site . It's fun and awesome .


I'm older than dirt , meaning I'll be forty next Summer and I write and post ' craptacular ' WWE fanfic , mostly of the slash variety , at both FF and WWOMB .

Thanks for ( hopefully ) not being annoyed by my crazy , goofy old self . :D

That is beautiful.

I had actually meant to post my partner's commentary on the Silmarillion as we read through it together, because it was so fantastic, but never got around to it.

I do remember, though, that by the end of "Beren and Luthien," she was referring to Thingol as "King D-ckbag." Now it all fits!
