(Wo)man on a Mission

Oh, I'll definitely be able to. I feel sorry for you, still having to get through "Stuck in Middle Earth". By the way, is it time for me to spork my chapter yet?
I've heard nothing but good things about the Final Fantasy series. I'm not big on video games, but I might have to try playing it sometime. Can you give me a thumbnail sketch on what it's about?
No, it's the worst possible situation. They're even worse off under Semirhage than they were under Morgoth. Morgoth was evil, but at least he was intelligent, and he understood how hard it was to read badfics. Semirhage is just batshit crazy.
You're right about that. I thought about writing something else, but "headdesk" just seemed to fit more than anything I could come up with. I guess I could try typing "headseat".
Same here. In fact, with a few notable exceptions, the worst LotR fics were written just after the movies came out. That was when the movies were new and popular, and all the teenage fanbrats were going nuts over the hawt guys. I still remember the "Epiphany over Legolas" poems, not to mention an NC-17 fic called "The Last of the Faeries".
Oh, I agree with you. There is almost nothing lulzy about this fic; it's just boring, pointless, "cutesy" scenarios from beginning to end. It's like an episode of "Full House," except one of the kids is deaf--and it's even LESS funny, if that's possible. This fic is also insulting, not just to Tolkien but to the deaf. Kaiyoz claims to understand deafness and then goes ahead and treats Legolas like he's completely helpless. Deaf people are not helpless. |

*reads, screams and dies* Oh, gosh, Jules. This is one of the stupidest fanfics I've ever read. I congratulate you on making it through alive.
I'm not sure we want Kaiyoz in our world.
Amen.
Be careful what you wish for, Boris.

And then the armies of Orcs and Haradrim stormed the "palace" and killed Deaf!Retarded!Legolas and Creepy!Stalker-ish!Thranduil. The End.
This punctuation rape is almost as bad as darkangel1994's. *shudders*

Elf #3: Oh, wait- there's some paint drying over there. Let's go watch that instead!
So true, Jules. So very true.
Whoa. Didn't see THAT coming... ![]() Ugh. Excellent spork. *sends chocolate, brain bleach, and other assorted goodies* Now, please excuse me while I go headdesk myself into oblivion. |

Thank you. It means a lot to me. This is stupider than the typical Suefic.
I agree. Send her to another planet, or some alternate universe where all the men are spineless pussies for her to coo over.
Ah, I wish. That would be the most beautiful ending ever.
OTHER ELVES: Yeah! That's ten times for interesting than Deaf!Retarded!Legolas's progress down the stairs.
Jules's team appreciates it, as usual. Thanks.
I think I'm going to do something similar. |

Paying Tribute to the Past
|
Almost, if Daisy ever gets around to sporking her chapter. :rolleyes:
Every instalment of the series stands on its own, so you don't need to have played them all. As for XII, it's (in my personal opinion), one of the better games in the series, really pushing the PS2 to its limits. It's a politically-tinted story, telling about the great conflict between the Archadian and Rozarian empire in the world of Ivalice, and the fate of the small kingdoms between those two giants. You start the game playing as Vaan, a youth from the kingdom of Dalmasca, which was overrun by Archadia. Through a series of events, he finds himself caught up in the political affairs of a princess-presumed-dead, a traitor-knight-who-killed-Dalmasca's-king-but-says-he-didn't, the suspicious past of a sky pirate and his partner, all while being aided by ahis childhood friend. Quite a good game and a great story (IMHO), though most disagree with me because the pacing isn't that great. Sometimes you'll play for hours before another story scene happens, but I don't mind, because the world is rich and beautiful, and enormously detailed. Every monster you slay gets an entry in the bestiary, and this bestiary tells you the genus of the monster, where it comes from, how it evolved, what places it appears in, the history of those lands and so much more. You'll be reading for hours. Really, a deep game for those willing to invest in it. It's all up to what you like, though.
Let's be honest here, chances that it will actually BE interesting are zero.
She just keeps on failing, doesn't she? <_<
And even if she did know, I'd still scream SCREW YOU!
actually, they resigned. They refused to be part of such a pathetic lifeform any longer. Screw what the bible says about the eye not being able to say "foot, I no longer need you".
Keep breathing, Jules, keep breathing.
I think Chesterfield just had a punctuation orgasm. :ph43r:
Don't give him ideas! He's capable of doing that!
I loved this part! ![]()

Don't do that wishful thinking, Aravis, it'll only lead to disappointment.
Sums this entire fic up.
Pretty much, Jules. Well said!
God, please no, crossovers done by suethors are even worse than normal suefics!
*pats Jules on the back* There, there. If you want, you can join the girls of my spork team in reading that bad sex-orgy-fic they've been given. But then again, I don't think that's any better than this. ![]() Keep it up, Jules! It'll end, someday! |

Sounds good. I'd better get started on composing my sporking, though; I don't know when I'll be able to work on it in the future. Can you play Final Fantasy on the computer?
And you were right.
I think she was born to fail. I mean, I don't think she's even seen the Lord of the Rings movies. She probably saw Legolas ride into Rivendell, turned off the movie to go masturbate, and the rest is history.
I don't blame them. I have to wonder how deaf!pathetic!Legolas even exists, considering Darwin's theory of evolution.
Okay, never mention Chesterfield having an orgasm again.
Oops!
And me. :angry:
True. Especially if they're Twilight crossovers.
By now I think I'd prefer a bad sex-orgy-fic. It would be more interesting than this. Thank you for reading, Refie. It's keeping me going. |

If I promise not to kill you can I have a hug? My favorite thing about eating gummy bears is that they don't fight back when bite their heads off Teddies don't hug back, but sometimes they're all you have...

Then there's the paranoid, and they just think someone's drinking out of their glass. Corrigan: Huh, then which one are you? Joker: I'm the one who knocks the glass over. ~ The Joker Blogs. | |

You're assuming people are reading what you write and aren't just looking for the word "Legolas."
Angey?
*Rubs eyes* Amazing!
Well, actually, I broke my toe last night and got a headache. Of course, that was after two hours in the ER and yelling and crying because of the pain of realigning the toe even with anesthesia.
What, is Thranduil going to put the drawing on the royal refrigerator?
We'll put him into the Character Protection Program.
I know the feeling, Jules. I know the feeling. |

Works for me.
Ebert and whoever his partner is now gave it two thumbs down.
*Grabs pitchfork.* I'm ready.
It must be the same suburb Angey set "Two Hearts, One Soul" in.
Oh, I love the Church Lady.
I know a dwarf that might do that. *Pulls in Dopey*
That's it! Kaiyoz is secretly the Cookie Monster! That explains so much...

Rising Again
|
Cue the entrance of Sue, who will aid our poor, disabled princeling.
How did Elves age again?
Of course. We cannot let all that wangst potential go to shame. *sigh*I was never fond of stories about disabled people. Documentaries, yes, but something generalised. Success story is OK. We should be aware of their problems, and be prepared if it happens to someone close to us. But put it in a movie, or bestseller, and I feel like it is supposed to be a tear-jerker, one of those "see, how others have it worse, you aren't that bad off" stories whose true purpose is making people feel better about themselves rather than go and contribute to some project to help.
No. Just no. That's about the last thing ME needs. And don't give them ideas.
That had better not be an attempt at "Elvish" word for teacher. Or I shall join Jules in screaming fits.
Well, that's possible. A descendant of one, at least. Only a member of that family would be crazy enough to befriend Kaiyoz's vision of Legolas, after all.
And thus, his father disowned him. Not for being gay, but for his taste in partners. Great job, as always. |

Thanks for the reviews. Mac, I'll get to your "Stranger" update after this; I haven't had much time lately.
Hmmm, I wonder who Ebert's partner is now. I'll have to look it up.
So are we! We've got pitchforks, torches...let's go burn the witch!
Probably. Do you think Melody goes to Legolas's elementary school?
Her grammar isn't much better than Cookie Monster's. I bet she actually would type "Me like Leggy." "Me want cookies." "Me write crap. |

Don't worry. It's not going anywhere. Next week I start posting the MSTs I did of Gordo-Girl's Harry Potter musicals.
This is going to be fun.
Melody isn't important enough to go to school! He's probably in the same class as Henry, though. |

I believe Elves reached physical maturity at 50 years and emotional maturity at 100 years. Before that, I don't know.
I agree with you. Stories about disabled people should be used to educate others, not for cheap dramatic purposes. Of course, in this case it's worse, because Legolas wasn't even disabled in canon. So Kaiyoz was just writing this story as an excuse for wangst--though why she picked Legolas, I have no idea.
Well, at least it would have given this story a PLOT.
Really? Oh, God, I never even thought of that. I thought Kaiyoz was trying to type "teacher" and just wasn't paying attention. But if she was actually trying to type the word in "Elvish"...yep; I'm going to have a screaming fit right now. By the way, is there even an Elvish word for "teacher"? Isn't "teacher" more of a modern concept?
Please; I don't think even Eol and Maglor would be crazy enough to befriend Kaiyoz's vision of Legolas. Thank you for the review.
Oh, man, you did MSTs of Gordo-Girl's Harry Potter musicals?! You are awesome! I was just thinking of MSTing them too! I can't wait to read them!
Oh, yeah, I forgot; Rora stops caring about Melody as soon as Henry and Heidi enter the picture. <_< Still, what with Henry's stutter and Legolas's deafness...boy, can you imagine the wangst potential if those two were paired up? |
