I can't tell you the number of times Spell Check has caught that mistake. I'm always hitting the space bar too soon... I love Spell Check. I even have a Spell Checker for things I type on the internet. :)

Haha, I just had an image of Haldir as Moses in the Ten Commandments... funny image. Good one! :)

Eowyn (as Legolas): That you carry a nasty disease called Sueness.


Do you feel as if your whole life is a blur and that your character is becoming compromised? When a beautiful woman walks by, do you fall in love but as soon as she leaves you question why exactly you find her beautiful? Well, that Sueness and in todays society, it can be cured by a small pill called Suebgone. Suebgone should not be taken by pregnant or nursing women and side effects can occur in characters in the Whoniverse. Talk to your local healer if you develop a rash, as you might not be taking the correct dosage. Suebgone: a creation of 'fandom farmacies.'

We all got dressed up in elvish clothing. I danced around with the music that played above our heads. Legolas stood by the fountain and watched me.

Kraut (as Legolas): Oh shit, does she think this is some bloody disco?

"A lament for Gandalf." Legolas said to the others.

So, she's effectively dancing at Gandalf's funeral? Hmm, tactful.

Hmm, I was wondering what was wrong in that scene...

Ari, just wait for the scene in which Boromir tries to rape the Sue. That makes you hate Kuragari even more. As a sidenote, it is a shame that I lost a chance to joke at the expense of Kuragari's penname. 'Kura' in Finnish means 'loose mud' but since this is in English...

Looks like a pretty generic Sue story to me, horrible, but ordinary horrible, not Celebrian-horrible. All the flaws have already been pointed out here, nothing for me to rant about. :-)

Question: Does Boromir end up raping her? He had better not! Seriously, why is the guy always portrayed as Mr. Evil Rapist Sexist Bastard? He's a brave, honorable man who loves his country. Frodo succumbed to the ring too. If it weren't for Gollum, he would have taken it for himself. Do you ever see Frodo as Mr. Evil Rapist Sexist Bastard?

Oops. Looks like there was something for me to rant about.

Anyway, I love the MST. Favorite comment is the one about the "half lings".

Because from the time we are young, we are blasted that royalty wear crowns--not just from Disney. Especially in America where we don't have access to royalty everyday.

Ah, the narrative's going nowhere, so it must be time for evil rapist!Boromir to make an appearance. I suppose I should try for wit in response, but I feel that abuse is all that this piece of unmitigated crap deserves. Ugh!

He has to be, how else would he fall for all those Sues?

I whole-heartedly agree. One thing Suethors can't grasp that as in all medieval societies, like Middle-Earth is supposed to be, rape was a crime punishable by death. And in Lórien it would have been regarded as simply unimaginably evil a deed. Boromir would have been hanged, most probably, and in the very least not allowed to continue with the Fellowship if he tried to rape the Sue. But does Kuragari give even a slight thought to that? Nope.

None of the Suethors think about that. I was reading the latest chapter wondering if Kuragari was going to address how Boromir was punished. But she didn't. I would imagine Aragorn would've told him to leave the Fellowship, Galadriel would've had him escorted out of Lorien if not killed and he would've been shamed. But no, let's bring him along to show how more ebul Boromir can become.

Quote:
 
I did not want to leave the enchanted place, which I grew to love, but I had to go on.

Kraut: Oh, no, you hadn’t. Galadriel and Celeborn did offer all the chance to go back.


Don't forget, Shadow holds the fate of Middle-earth. That and do you think Celeborn and Galadriel REALLY want her hanging out?

Quote:
 
You will not retrieve a gift, but two.


Shadow has to go fetch her own gifts? Can they be at the bottom of a deep, fast-moving river or a volcano?

Quote:
 
“He will take the ring to Sauron! I can see it!” Boromir yelled.


He was almost correct. Frodo got to Mordor and decided to keep the Ring. Had Gollum not interfered, Sauron probably could've gotten a hold of the Ring.

Two chapters? Yay. Great MST, really bad and generic Sue story.

Faramir: Curiosity killed the cat, Shadow.

If 'everybody' was 'me' ie Shadow, it would be very cheery.

Love it!

Quote:
 
"That is completely untold. I do not even know the answer.

Eowyn (as Galadriel): Ask Kuragari, she is the person who wrote this.

Although Kura probably also doesn't know what's going to happen.

Quote:
 
You will want your elbow to stick out like so." He showed me, holding my elbow out. "And target the arrow where you wish it to go.

Eowyn: Erm, shouldn’t she aim above the target, the angle depending on the distance?
Faramir: Yes.
Kätchen: Kuragari, a bow is not a rifle.

Althoug Legolas doesn't sound like a very good archery teacher. 'want your elbow to stick out ' seriously? Not really how you word it.

Quote:
 
When targeting, close one eye, your left

Technically which eye you close depends on the person, I close either my right eye or neither. It does depend on the person.

"What are you going to do with me? Torture?"

Oh please, no lover's torture.

Quote:
 
"Ah-hah! Got you!"

"I am going to torture you." He said, still smiling

I already said, no lover's torture!

Quote:
 
But he rebounded and landed on my boobs.
"Ow!" I cried. That really hurt.

All: Yes!

Funny image of Legolas 'rebounding' and landing on the Sue's chest, although I do have to agree with the 'really hurt' part, it kills!

Quote:
 
I slid off of him quickly. I blushed. We both shot up off the ground blushing.

Hehe they sound like two teenagers that have been caught by the parents!

Quote:
 
Faramir (horrified and angry): Kuragari, stop this! Whatever Boromir did, he doesn’t deserve this kind of slander!

Poor Faramir, no one needs to see their brother turned into an evil rapist!

Quote:
 
Kraut: I must be turning sadistic, but I actually like reading of her in pain.
Kätchen: Funny, so do I.

She's a Sue, we all enjoy it!

Quote:
 
Faramir: Wrong. They can, only they heal faster.

Can anyone say Celebrian?

Quote:
 
Oh, sorry about the rambling of food!

That's the least you should apologise for!

Quote:
 
Then, Boromir. I didn’t listen to what Boromir retrieved

If he tried to rape her then it would be his marching orders.

Quote:
 
Faramir: Had he done that telepatchically or with sign language if Shadow heard nothing?

He's a dwarf, she probably didn't really care.

Quote:
 
She placed the necklace over my neck, perfectly fitting as if it were made for me.

Of course it did!

Wasn't the aiming eye called the stronger or the dominant eye? I, for one, technically have no dominant eye since they both are as good. Hence, I aim with my left eye half open and the right eye fully open when I shoot (I've never done archery, only shot with rifles).

Anyways, Kuragari doesn't seem to know much about either archery or rifle shooting. Arrow flying as fast as a bullet? Please, give me a break, Kura. The muzzle velocity of a modern military or hunting rifle can be over 800 metres per second. I really would want to see a bow which has that much power.

Well I am cross lateral or something so I shouldn't close either eye. But sometimes I find it easier closing my left and sometimes my right. It is all about how you find it more, comfortable for want of a better word.

They are making uber-bows now but Legolas and the Fellowship would not have had ones that fast.
Merlin: Thank you.
