I must admit, I've gotten a lot less hard on this fic after reading such monstrosities as "Violation of the Evenstar," not to mention the garbage found on Library of Moria. You can read the story here. |

The first time I read this, it took me a few times because I just had to keep going somewhere else. I couldn't take it all at once. But after my curiosity got the better of me and I read "Celebrian," this wasn't so bad afterwards. In fact, it was very humorous--especially your riffs. Excellent job, Jules! Though I've never made it all the way through your MST of "Violation of the Evenstar." I got sick halfway through. |

I agree with you. I realize this fic doesn't follow canon, but at least it rapes canon TASTEFULLY. And there's no gang-rape and humiliation in it. I should tell you now that "Violation" is not nearly as bad as "Celebrian," though it's a lot LIKE "Celebrian" in many ways. At least Arwen doesn't run away from home to be a sex-slave to the orcs. Thank you for the review. |

At Journey's End

Ah, I remember enjoying reading this one on lotrfanfiction. Mary A. seriously needs to read "Laws and Customs". "Deeds of lust were seldom", anyone? By the way, did you know that the author have written a sequel to this? I haven't read it, but it seems not to be PWP. After this, though, I doubt anything by the author would be enjoyable. P.S. Damn lack of sleep! I accidentally posted this first to the actual story thread. Sorry, jules, my bad. |

That's nothing. Have you read her "Mirkwood Adventures" series? There are three or four stories in it, all over fifty chapters long, all about the author and her beta having kinky sex with Thranduil--without a sign that they're married, by the way. According to Mary A, Thranduil is a horny womanizer who keeps concubines and seduces women of every race. I doubt she has read "Laws and Customs of the Eldar," but if she has, that's even worse. I think I glanced through the sequel once or twice. It has slightly more of a plot than this one, but not much. Conner basically travels to Lothlorien, has sex with a lot of slutty elf-maids, and--you're going to love this--becomes a border-guard of the realm. I might MST it, but I'm not sure yet. |

Fifty chapters of kinky sex? Three times? With Thranduil? I am amazed. I doubt if that version of Thranduil is any better than the usual sadistic-father-Thranduil. The amount of smut in Tolkien fandom is astounding, seeing the nature of Tolkien's work and his world-views. So Conner is going to be Haldir's colleague? Very believable. Or not. I think I'll read it, just to have some laughs. Maybe it's a bit masochistic, but reading badfics is sometimes very fun. By the way, part of the quality of Mary A.'s writing can be deduced from the way she named her main character. *Start sarcasm* Conner definitely sounds Sindarin, doesn't it?*End sarcasm* |

A sequel!? How many flames did she get for that story yet she writes a sequel? She is seriously delusional. It's always quite funny to read the MSTs of these stories, they're so rubbish, it's like shooting fish in a barrel. |

They're almost too easy to spork, aren't they? When I was asking Mary A for permission to post my MST online, she said that Conner was actually the name of the guy she wrote this fanfic for. Apparently, he requested a fic about himself having sex with elf-ladies, and here's the result. So I guess Conner can be classified as a self-insert Gary Stu. The thing is, while Tolkien obviously hated smut, not all of the races in Middle-earth are pure. If these authors have to write porn set in Tolkien's world, they could write plenty about Men or, if they want to be disgusting, about orcs. But no; they have to keep dragging the elves into their disgusting fantasies, just because they think the elves are "lyke totally HAWT!!11" |

:lol: :lol: :lol: Good work! It's one of the best MST's I read. Which was expected. After all, you're the author of the MST for AEL, which is the best one ever!Great jokes, and I indeed undertand why Morgoth is upset that he didn't have this story with him in battles with elves XD Oh, he would surely win most of them then ![]() But, you know... Umm... *builds a barricade to defend herself in case someone gets violent* :ph43r: if we disregard the awful totally-not-elven behaviour, it's not that bad of a fanfic... To me... I even enjoyed it, sort of...*hides behind the barricade and prepares for death* :ph43r: |

Thank you! I agree with you that except for the non-Elven behavior, it wasn't that bad. In fact, it was kind of funny, what with the "sword" euphemism and all. The thing is, though, she could have set it in her own world, instead of Middle-earth, if she wanted to put horny elves in it. But compared to horrors like "Violation of the Evenstar" and "Celebrian," this was great literature. |
