Mae govannen! (Hi!)

I'm the girl who knows a lot of people and is friendly with a lot of people, but generally prefers to be alone. I enjoy reading about history (any history!) and discussing it with my friends. I am more or less on hiatus from this site, as my current fandom has no base here, but I may still post from time to time.

Works in Progress

Note: These stories have already been started, at least, but some of them are probably not going to be up for a while. In some cases, I'm still debating on whether or not to finish them.

(Lord of the Rings)

An angsty Eowyn slash fic. Various pairings- Theodred, Aragorn, and Faramir. (K for angst and romance)

Possibly another companion piece to "Moirae". "Nana, I had a strange dream." When they were young, both Legolas and Aragorn dreamed of each other. But it was not until years later that they finally understood their dreams. Might be discarded? (K for angst and mention of canon death)

(Hetalia--Axis Powers)

A China/Hong Kong oneshot involving England and the Opium Wars and the cessation of HK. Nonslash. (K for angst)

A series of Prussia/Poland drabbles detailing their relationship through history. Slash. (K for romance and angst)

A songfic to "Fearless" by Taylor Swift. Prussia/Hungary slash. (K because it is)

A series of oneshot songfics inspired by Suzanne Ciani piano pieces. Various pairings. (probably K for romance and angst)

An America/Canada story involving 9/11. Nonslash. (T for injuries and sensitive issues)

A multi-chapter story of WWIII and the subsequent end of the world. Various pairings. (T for blood and war)

(Crossovers)

Narnia/LOTR. After the train crash, Susan is visited by a strange, recurring dream. She uses the rings to transport herself to the Wood between the Worlds, where Aslan is waiting for her, with a task she must complete. (K for mention of canon death)

From now on, remember these 14 statements:

1. At least 2 people in the world love you so much they would die for you. (...?)

2. At least 15 people in the world love you in some way. (Yes, most likely)

3. A smile from you can bring happiness to anyone, even if they don't like you. (Er...no.)

4. Every night, someone thinks about you before they go to sleep. (Possibly.)

5. You mean the world to someone. (No.)

6. If not for you, someone may not be living. (Wait for it...no.)

7. You are unique and special. (Maybe.)

9. When you make the biggest mistake ever, something good can still come from it. (Very likely.)

10. When you think the world has turned its back on you, take a look: you most likely turned your back on the world. (Hmm...let me think about that one.)

11. Someone you don't even know exists loves you. (Um, no...? Actually, now that I think about it...maybe. O_o)

12. Always remember the compliments received. Forget the rude remarks. (I will try.)

13. Always tell someone how you feel about them; you will feel much better when they know and you will both be happy. (... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...Shall I continue?)

14. If you have a great friend, take some time and let them know how great they are. (Sure thing.)

Stereotypes = stupid

8 Ways to Know If You're Obsessed with Lord of the Rings...

1. Almost every sentence you say has something to do with LOTR.

2. Your teacher mentioning Orlando Bloom in a conversation in English class makes you laugh for an hour.

3. You spend your free time either a) studying Elven history or b) studying Elvish. Or both, of course. Or, of course, c) reading LOTR fanfiction. (Thanks to the lovely hazelmallorn for reminding me!)

4. You get annoyed whenever a book says the adjective form of elf is "elfin" instead of "elvish".

5. If you've also read Percy Jackson and the Olympians, you have an overwhelming impulse to call the Stoll brothers Merry and Pippin.

6. When a test review in a foreign language class asks you how to say "thank you", your first reaction is "hannon lle". (Credit for this one goes to the talented ElvishRangerApprentice!)

7. As you're reading this you're nodding at every single one.

8. You copy and paste this into your profile. :)

Quotes

{My sister: Peking Opera sounds like...ducks.}

Pippin: Besides, you need people of intelligence on this sort of mission...quest...thing.
Merry: Well, that rules you out, Pippin.

Gimli: Toss me.
Aragorn: What?
Gimli: I cannot jump the distance, you will have to toss me!
pause; Gimli looks up at Aragorn
Gimli: Don't tell the Elf.
Aragorn: smiles Not a word.

Gandalf: Fool of a Took! Next time throw yourself in and rid us of your stupidity.

Battle of Helm's Deep
Gimli: Legolas! Two already!
Legolas: I'm on seventeen!
Gimli: Huh? I'll have no pointy-ear outscoring me!
Gimli kills another one; Legolas shoots two more arrows
Legolas: Nineteen!

Gimli: Whatever luck you live by, laddie, let us hope it lasts the night.
Legolas: Your friends are with you, Aragorn.
Gimli: Let's hope they last the night.

Gimli is too short to see over the wall
Gimli: What's happening out there?
Legolas: Shall I describe it to you?
Gimli: turns Hmm?
Legolas: Or would you like me to find you a box?
Gimli laughs

Gimli: Certainty of death, small chance of survival...What are we waiting for?

After falling down a hill
Merry: I think I've broken something.
Pulls out a broken carrot

Gandalf: I once knew every spell in all the tongues of Elves, Men, and Orcs.
Pippin: What are you going to do, then?
Gandalf: Knock your head against these doors, Peregrin Took! And if that does not shatter them, and I am allowed a little peace from foolish questions, I will try to find the opening words.

Frodo wakes up to hear Aragorn singing in the dark
Frodo: Who is she? This woman you sing of?
Aragorn: 'Tis the Lay of Lúthien. The Elf-maiden who gave her love to Beren, a mortal.
Frodo: What happened to her?
Aragorn: She died.
Aragorn sighs, and turns back to Frodo
Aragorn: Get some sleep, Frodo.

Sam: Hey. Mr. Frodo's not going anywhere without me.
Elrond: No, indeed. It is hardly possible to separate you, even when he is summoned to a secret council and you are not.

Frodo: Before you came along, we Bagginses were very well thought of.
Gandalf: Indeed?
Frodo: Never had any adventures or did anything unexpected.
Gandalf: If you're referring to the incident with the Dragon, I was barely involved. All I did was give your uncle a little nudge out of the door.
Frodo: Whatever you did, you've been officially labeled a disturber of the peace.

Gimli: Well, here's one dwarf she won't ensnare so easily. I have the eyes of a hawk and the ears of a fox.
Several elves appear, covering them with arrows at point-blank range
Haldir: The dwarf breathes so loudly, we could have shot him in the dark.

Pippin: Are we lost?
Merry: No.
Pippin: I think we are.
Merry: Shh. Gandalf's thinkin'.
Pippin: Merry?
Merry: What?
Pippin: I'm hungry.

Gandalf: Confound it all, Samwise Gamgee. Have you been eavesdropping?
Sam: I ain't been droppin' no eaves sir, honest. I was just cutting the grass under the window there, if you'll follow me.
Gandalf: A little late for trimming the verge, don't you think?
Sam: I heard raised voices.
Gandalf: What did you hear? Speak.
Sam: N-nothing important. That is, I heard a good deal about a ring, and a Dark Lord, and something about the end of the world, but... Please, Mr. Gandalf, sir, don't hurt me. Don't turn me into anything... unnatural.

Treebeard: We have just agreed...
Merry and Pippin lean in; pause
Merry: Yes?
Treebeard: I have told your names to the Entmoot, and we have decided that you are not orcs.
Pippin: Well, that's good news.

Gandalf: to Pippin Now, listen carefully. Lord Denethor is Boromir's father. To give him news of his beloved son's death would be most unwise.
slight pause
And do not mention Frodo, or the Ring.
Gandalf turns to go, then turns back
And say nothing of Aragorn either.
pause
In fact, it's better if you don't speak at all, Peregrin Took.

Eomer [about Merry]: You should not encourage him.
Eowyn: You should not doubt him.
Eomer: I do not doubt his heart, only the reach of his arm.
Eomer's second-in-command snickers

Sam: What are you up to? Sneaking off, are we?
Gollum: Sneaking? Sneaking? Fat hobbit is always so polite. Smeagol shows them secret ways that nobody else could find, and they say "sneak!" Sneak? Very nice friend. Oh, yes, my precious. Very nice, very nice.
Sam: All right, all right! You just startled me is all. What were you doing?
Gollum: Sneaking.

Aragorn sees the lighted beacons and runs to Theoden King (and, as my sister noticed, flailing his arms on the way there :D)
Aragorn: The Beacons of Minas Tirith! The Beacons are lit! Gondor calls for aid.
pause while everyone stares at Aragorn
Theoden: And Rohan will answer. Muster the Rohirrim! Assemble the army at Dunharrow. As many men as can be found. You have two days. On the third, we ride for Gondor...and war.

Gimli: Never thought I'd die fighting side by side with an Elf.
Legolas: What about side by side with a friend?
Gimli: Aye. I could do that.
They both smile

Boromir: [from the Extended Edition] Remember today, little brother. Today, life is good.

Theoden: Where is the horse and the rider? Where is the horn that was blowing? They have passed like rain on the mountains, like wind in the meadow. The days have gone down in the West behind the hills into shadow. How did it come to this?

Faramir: [from the Extended Edition] The enemy? His sense of duty was no less than yours, I deem. You wonder what his name is, where he comes from, and if he really was evil at heart. What lies or threats led him on this long march from home, and would he not rather have stayed there... in peace? War will make corpses of us all.

Denethor: Is there a captain here who still has the courage to do his lord's will?
Faramir: You wish now that our places had been exchanged...that I had died and Boromir had lived.
Denethor: Yes. I wish that.
Faramir: Since you were robbed of Boromir...I will do what I can in his stead.
Faramir bows and turns to leave
Faramir: If I should return, think better of me, Father.
Denethor: That will depend on the manner of your return.

Aragorn: Take some rest. These borders are well protected.
Boromir: I will find no rest here. I heard her voice inside my head. She spoke of my father and the fall of Gondor. She said to me, even now, there is hope left, but I cannot see it. It is long since we had any hope. My father is a noble man, but his rule is failing, and our people lose faith. He looks to me to make things right and I would do it. I would see the glory of Gondor restored. Have you ever seen it, Aragorn? The White Tower of Ecthelion, glimmering like a spike of pearl and silver, its banners caught high in the morning breeze. Have you ever been called home by the clear ringing of silver trumpets?
Aragorn: I have seen the White City, long ago.
Boromir: One day, our paths will lead us there and the tower guard will take up the call: The Lords of Gondor have returned.

Boromir: Leave it! It is over. The world of Men shall fall...and all come to darkness...and my city to ruin.
Aragorn: I do not know what strength is in my blood, but I swear to you, I will not let the White City fall...nor our people fail.
Boromir: Our people...our people...I would have followed you to the end, my brother...my captain...my King.
Boromir dies
Aragorn: Be at peace, Son of Gondor.
Aragorn kisses him on the forehead, then turns to Legolas and Gimli behind him
Aragorn: They will look for his coming from the White Tower. But he will not return.
