http://mistful.livejournal.com/50765.html Not mine! Got this link from Norringtom! :D Funny LotR (RotK) dialogue! It made me laugh at a pretty depressing hour of the night, hehehe! :D GOLLUM: Precious. Fat hobbit. Precious. Fat hobbit. Yin/yang, secrets of the universe, inherent opposites and contradictions in war between good and evil... all basically boils down to - Precious. Fat hobbit. FRODO: I suppose in many lights, and especially considering the fact we've been on starvation rations a while, Sam is rather chunky. THEODEN: Let's all go and get utterly slaughtered, lads! ROHIRRIM: *inexplicably do not all desert. Twice.* (*pictures Eomer's days as king.*) EOMER: Let us now have peace and plenty in the fields. ROHIRRIM: No! Want to wallow in own blood! EOMER: But... look, Sauron's been defeated... everything's fine... ROHIRRIM: Everything's fine? Theoden never said stuff like that to us. Call yourself a king. Look, let's fight Gondor, we always hated those bastards anyway. Can't think why we went to their aid. Except for the fact that our inevitable deaths appealed to us. Man, those were the days. EOMER: We have a sworn alliance with Gondor. ROHIRRIM: Yap yap yap, horse boy. Man, where's Eowyn? At least she was hot. EOMER: She married the Steward of Gondor! ROHIRRIM: You see? You see, those Gondorian bastards nick everything good off us! EOMER: Sigh. ROHIRRIM: How about that elf, you know the one, Leggy, could be mistaken for Eowyn on an overcast day, also likes to gaze wistfully off into the distance atop our fortress? Let's keep the elf instead. EOMER: We cannot abduct the elf prince of Mirkwood, that would mean war! ROHIRRIM: Score! Death, death, death, death! EOMER: Me and my big fat mouth. SAM: Frodo's big death scene turned out to be an ill-timed rendition of his famous Egyptian Mummy act. Unimpressed, Mister Frodo, very unimpressed. SAM: Now I'm all hot and I've seen Frodo half naked and carried him around and we're all squidged up and dirty on this rock... I want to marry Rosie Cotton. NON-READING-LOTR AUDIENCE: Who the bloody hell...? FRODO: Hold me Sam, you manly manly hunk of hobbit, hold me hard. SAM: Heh heh heh. Playing hard to get worked like a charm, just like my old gaffer said. PIPPIN: Decades of ruling Gondor, Denethor, decades, and you still don't learn table manners? Sheesh. Man, I miss Merry. Merry was dainty and used embroidered table napkins. FARAMIR: Half killed, making stupid battle decisions, covered in oil, deprived of romance, unloved by father... have I still not paid for the bastardisation of my character? AUDIENCE: No. No, not yet. Carry on. ARAGORN: Look, I know the elven alliance is important, but am I really supposed to marry Legolas? Well, I must admit he is very shiny. GIMLI: ISN'T THE FACT THAT I AM SHORT AND VERY HAIRY FUNNY ENOUGH? JEEZ, YOU *PEOPLE*! Can you just imagine the elven table at the wedding? Imagine Arwen's poor elven bridesmaids trying to get off with the best man. LEGOLAS: The sky is... blue. The trees are... green. BRIDESMAID: God, it's lucky that you're pretty. LEGOLAS: Also... a prince. BRIDESMAID: Seriously, what is up with those portentous pauses? LEGOLAS: Obscure elven... speech impediment. BRIDESMAID: You poor, retarded lad. Come here and let me lick you better all over. EOWYN (stopping by): I think you're wasting your time there. The boy is as fey as they come. Look at his tiara. BRIDESMAID: Oh no, he is an elven prince from the bad side of the tracks, which is hot. Also, for an elf, he is bursting with testosterone. EOWYN: Say what? BRIDESMAID: Well, he went around wearing sensible worn brown for months, which would have sent Elrond into galloping consumption. He ended up with smudges on his cheeks and his hair braided in a practical fashion. When Haldir saw it he was all 'You have let yourself go, man. Sad, sad, sad. This hurts me more than being axed.' So... yeah... rebellious prince, living rough, all filthy and warriory... He is the Uber Aragorn of Elves. EOWYN: You interest me strangely. BRIDESMAID: Not the brightest, but he sure can kill an oliphant. EOWYN: You know, that's a valuable life skill. LEGOLAS: I am... about to get lucky.
WARNING: To those of you who haven't seen the Season 3 Finale of Lost - kindly ignore this post. :) To those who haven't seen it but want to be spoiled - Fine!! Bleh! >:P To those who were also part of the Peanut Butter Campaign - *sniff* with me... (Tobie, wag kang humirit! >:P) (Oh yeah, this is a delayed post. :P Lol! Wrote this after watching the season finale for the nth time, remembered it after the watching the season finale for the (n+1)th time, which was a while ago. :P) I owe at least 30% of my Lost fandom to Charlie Pace & Dominic Monaghan. <3 Three years ago, I saw this feature on TV on some show about a plane crash. There was mild interest when I heard the great reviews surrounding "that Lost show", but interest reached must-watch status when the smiling hobbity face of Meriadoc Brandybuck popped up in the cast. :D Charlie, I wouldn't be Lost without you! ^____^ ~ Btw, this is partly inspired by Neil Gaiman's Vampire Sestina. (Which is gorgeous! <3) After reading it, I thought of writing one myself. :D ~ Fate Wins (From the point of view of Desmond David Hume) How many times did we play this game with fate? How many times did I see the flashes before my eyes? I warned you, I tried to save you. I gambled your life with my life. But we were walking on thin ice, standing on broken glass. How many times did we pass by this farewell? You were picking up good vibrations. "Farewell" not now, it seemed. You even smiled & said "So much for fate." We would have left the Looking Glass after looking straight in Death's eyes. You would have returned home, to them, & celebrated life. But he was still there. Lurking, waiting for you. Tap tap tap. You turned around. And he smiled at you. In his hand, he held up his heartless, cruel farewell. I ran to you, I needed to save your life. But you shut the door, you wouldn't let me share your fate. You wouldn't let Death take me too. I saw it in your eyes... I was too late. In between us, thick metal & glass. I heard the blast. I saw the way it shattered the glass. You stood still, as the ocean reached for you. You watched the water swirl around the room with your eyes... Then you grabbed a pen, wrote on your hand. Your farewell message. Your final card to play. Your final jab at fate. But for those back home - not for yourself, not for your life. You began to struggle... You began to drown... Your life was slipping away as you pressed your hand up to the glass. I got your message. Such was this harsh game of fate. The story will continue. But how does it go on without you? And of all the words in the world, you chose those as your farewell. The price for rescue, to be seen by outside eyes. There was nothing to be said. I just looked into your eyes, those last precious seconds of your life. You nodded & gave a small smile, in a silent farewell... And with your last breath, drifted away from the glass. No one else was there to say goodbye. It was just me & you. Such was your destiny. Such was your fate. Fate won, we lost. I saw the surrender in your eyes. I watched you, helplessly, through the pane of glass. Watched you let go of life, and embrace death. Goodbye, my friend. Farewell.
No, no spoilers here! I just want to give out a big CONGRATULATIONS! :D After about a decade of waiting, the Harry Potter series is complete! I tend to be very critical about the books (& don't even get me started on the movies :P) but one has to hand it to Jo... She knows how to take her readers for a ride. She knows how to make her characters mature, from precocious little pre-teens to young adults wise beyond their years. She captures her readers & keeps them hanging in just the right way. Her writing may not have the splendor & aesthetic brilliance of JRR Tolkien, but her words are colorful & vibrant - candy for bookworms! I am going to miss this series, I'm going to miss the characters I feel like I've grown up with... But looking at my lovely 7 books, looking at the final arc of the story, gives a feeling like I've just destroyed 7 Horcruxes myself. :D I take off my witch's hat, send up colorful wand sparks in the air, set off a huge box of Fred & George's fireworks, & raise my bottle of butterbeer to JK Rowling & the Harry Potter series! Congratulations! Fellow Potter fans, CHEERS!!!
