How come when you're bored, no one is online, and when you have something to do, there's a hailstorm of IMs? Also, I appear to be getting more known in the CSI fandom, judging by how many now IM me and don't even know what OFUM is. That does remind me - I've had a few people friend me, so why not take the opportunity to say hello?

Date: 2005-08-02 03:07 pm (UTC)Boromir's niece
What happens when a 15 yr. old girl, who (literally) fancies the pants off Legolas, joins the fellowship? Please note that flames will be mocked by myself AND my reviewers. Don't believe me? See for yourself.*~FINISHED!~*
Her name is Michelle, which is almost the same as mine (Michele).
Here's the first couple of paragraphs from the first chapter (entitled 'Meet Michelle, teenager from hell' - how appropriate):
~ Boromir’s chamber ~
“Please Uncle Boromir! I’ll be real good, honest I will. I won’t moan and I can cook.” Michelle pretended to pout and did puppy dog eyes at her uncle. She desperately wanted go with them on the quest to destroy the ring.
“Michelle, you can’t, it’s too dangerous. You have no way of protecting yourself.”
“Ha, that’s what you think. Arwen has taught me how use a sword, and I’m getting real good. Plus the fact that I’m a 15 year old girl. I could speak for Gondor. If anybody captured me, I could talk them to death and then escape. But not that you’d let me get captured or anything, though is it Uncle Boromir?.” Boromir couldn’t help but laugh at his niece’s persistence, and it was true, she did have the ‘gift of the gab’.
I really don't want or need to read any more than that.
*

Aw crap. I went ahead and looked at a little more before I posted this, and here's an even stupider bit:
“You cannot take a hairdryer. There won’t be any sockets, and anyway, there won’t be time for hairdryers and whatever else.” Boromir was getting annoyed with Michelle and all that she wanted to bring. Shampoo, conditioner, make-up, moisturiser and much more.
“But it won’t fit into my pack. Please Uncle Boromir.”
“No way Michelle, I have my dignity you know! What if Aragorn found it?”
“Please? It’s battery powered.”

Date: 2005-08-02 03:37 pm (UTC)This is my first fanfic on fanfiction. Tell me what you think, Kay
Who, me?
Kay ppl... This is where I'm gonna put all my short and stupid random fics! YAY!!! None of the chapters have anything to do with eachother, their all just Random stupid things. Kay, so R&R Plz!!!
Ummm... no thanks.
I'm not an LoTR or HP girl, so I did a general search, and found a Star Trek: Voyager Mary Sue with this except...
In engineering, Gill turned to Kay. "We did it," the temporary chief grinned.
"We most certainly did," agreed Kay, closing up the tricorder, on which they had the whole of the interaction in the turbolift recorded, thanks to the bugs that they had installed there earlier.
Okay, Gill is apparently a girl, but still that's pretty funny.
WAIT! I found an HP fic! Fires of the Sun: Kay Weasley (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2417407/1/)
She had golden locks that held every color, but still managed to portray that beautiful golden hue that drew everyone to her like a magnet. Her icy blue eyes were calm, and her skin was pale, but smooth and creamy. The girl was tall and had a commanding air about her, as if to say, you will do as I bid.
She was beautiful and I hated her.
My Mary Sue is AWESOME!
Also, this burns...
the world of lord of the rings is turned upside down when........... the raiders win a superbowl? huh. ohhhh kay then
In the LoTR story, lord of the rings wow Gasp (http://www.fanfiction.net/s/1557057/1/)

At least the author of "not your everyday witch" has a vocabulary that even includes the word "nay". Whereas "my" story, which is imaginatively named Margaret includes epistolary gems like this:
Aragorn,
Good to hear from you glad to see that your ok I was worried when you told me of the war in our last letter. Keep up the good work tell Legolas and Gimili that I miss them and cant wait to see them when all of this des down. Also I cant wait to see you when you are well away from all this and safe, were you can finally rest. Write when you can, oh and Arwen says “hi.”
This must be a troll, right?

Date: 2005-08-02 11:57 pm (UTC)Rowanna had just gotten into her best dress, tamed her hair, and was trying to get it dry. She sat atop her talan trying to dry her hair. “Holy Eru! This will take forever to get dry! She exclaimed pointing at the damp wet mass of golden hair.
“Then just go talan jumping!” Said her best friend Aradina.
“But the last time I did that I missed the talan!” Rowanna told Aradina.
“Fine ill go myself!” She said springing up. Rowanna, after some thinking, quickly followed. Jumping swiftly from platform to platform got her streaming hair dry.
***
She then found with a sickening feel in her heart, she never said goodbye. She knew what she must do. She quickly wrote a letter explaining to Rumil and Aradina what happened. She then fount the knife, she had gotten 16 long years ago and plunged it into her heart, blood blending with the read of her dress. Golden hair fanning out behind her. She was granted into the halls of Mandos. Looking around she found Haldir waiting. He enclosed her in his arms and said softly.
“I wondered when you would come home.”
Urgh.

Date: 2005-08-03 01:04 am (UTC)"It’s a shame, really, Johanna, about Tom. Not even Slytherins talk to him." Loosely based on Wicked the musical, a prequel for Tom Riddle, if you will. Oh, yes, Lord Voldemort is evil, but it’s not all for naught. He’s got his story as well, and you should listen.
Huh. http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2480127/1/
Two matches in LotR, of which the other is in German. But the English one, erm, well. See for yourself.
Here's the summary:
Johanna (that's my character in this fic!) takes an innocent walk in a woods that turns into a battle between good and evil and a fight for survival alongside the Fellowship. During this time, everyone finds an angel in her and their friendship grow deep.
And a quick glance at the first chapter tells me that Johanna saves Frodo by using CPR, breaks Legolas' nose by headbutting and makes Gimli blush. Not bad from a concert violinist, eh? But at least the writer knows how to spell. :)

*blink* witchteenphoenix?... What the hell... I am not.. Soo not going to look into that story. Ok... I looked.
*snippet*
Sarah,16 year old girl with waist length black raven hair, which had blue and purple streaks in it, looked at her friends and sighed. She is sitting at the Gryffindor table in the Great Hall having breakfast but she wasn’t hungry. She was only there because before her mum or dad left the world, their will was her to be taken in by none other than Albus Dumbledore.
She had wanted to live with the sisters ,Piper, Phoebe and Paige. Well… and also Chris and Wyatt… Well not Wyatt really since he was the one responsible for her parents’ death. The sisters just didn’t seem to believe her though. Wyatt had fed them a lie that her parents had died in a horrible battle between these demons that sucked out their souls with their mouths.
*yells* IT'S A CHARMED ONE! RUN AWAY!!!!!!!!!

Title translated: a prince of the green forest and a Scottish fairy...
*headdesk* Oh my god... I can't do it... I will not look... But alas.. I do..
*snippit*
Lifting her head to admire her handywork, she discovered that she had in fact turned her wall a sort of pink with bizarre yellow streaky-bits.
And the wall was laughing at her.. she knew it…
"AH! Stupid f****ing wall!…"
As if in response to her insult, the wall was suddenly it smug, pristine white self again.
Sarah glared at it, "I hate you wall…"
It ignored it. Typical.
..... Wait.. Wait.. It's the Witch-Wall! Crumble around her Witch-Wall!... *cricket*
*snippet*
Legolas's eyes widened at the sight of her. At a glance she was akin to Arwen, with dark raven locks framing a delicate face. But her skin seemed to have more colour to it, and the feeble rays of sun that filtered down through the clouds set off flashes of red in her hair.
However lovely she seemed however, it was obvious that she was becoming ill with the cold. Her cheeks held no colour and her lips seemed almost blue.
The reason for this was obvious, for she was wearing next to nothing.
Though her clothes seemed very finely made, with a deep black tunic-like garment to her knees, her legs were almost completely bare. This in itself was very odd, even odder still was the fact that her legs appeared completely smooth and hairless.
Without realising what he was doing Legolas let a finger run along the curve of her calf.
Suddenly Aragorn spoke into his ear from where he had crouched down next to Legolas, "Mind you manners there friend."
He then looked intently at the girl, held a hand over her parted lips for a moment, then laid a palm across her brow.
*blink* Me thinks I found something for Deleterius... Ow.. Lusting!Legolas... Ow...

The World As I Know It
Apparently Thranduil's wife was killed while they were "on progress" together. The first chapter made me laugh. It ends:
I sighed bitterly, raising my hands to massage pale cheeks, bleached from endless hours staring at the computer screen. A prank played on myself. I had a sudden flashback, returning to the night before. I had gone into my most recent message, and clicked "flag as new".
"I have no life!" I said to the ceiling, shaking fists. "My life is the internet-and how many emails have I had in the last year? SIX!"
"Go to bed, Ellen! Your life will be better tomorrow." The automated voice said. So distraught was I that I didn't really notice who was speaking.
"Mm hmm." I crawled into bed, shedding a tear over my misery.
