Question Meme (continued)

[la_samtyr]

This is a continuation of the meme from a few days ago.


Questions by esteliel:

1) If you could change one event in the history of Middle-earth, which one would it be and why?

Oh, so many choices! This is hard! But I think that I would have Fëanor's first-born child be female and not male. I'm convinced that Fëanor -- or maybe Nerdanel -- secretly wanted a girl, which is why they had seven kids. Maedhros would still be the first-born son, just the second child instead of the first.

It would also be interesting to see how Prof. Tolkien would written a Noldor queen; I am guessing he would be portrayed her in the style of Elizabeth I or perhaps Victoria.

2) If you were a Vala, which one would you be?

I suppose I'd be Vána because I love gardening. :)

3) If you could take three elves (or Men, or hobbits, dwarves etc.) to a lonely island with you, who would you choose?

Wow, this is even harder than the first question! Only three? Ah well, no point in being greedy is there? ;)

a. Fëanor -- because I'd love to see what he would invent.

b. Eöl -- again, I'd love to see what he would invent.

Note: It would be fascinating to watch these two -- so much alike, and yet so different. Both slightly mad and a whole lot of paranoid, creative to the nth degree -- and wildly jealous of just about everything. I imagine they would have many brawls over who was "the best" (and have lots of hawt hawt make-up smex) and they would eventually work as a team. (Ok, this might not be the wisest course but there would be *fireworks*, I'm sure of that -- and lots hawt nummy smex.)

c. Daeron -- for music, and civilized conversation. and he'd probably act as referee between the two geniuses. ;)

Heh.. You should write a fiction with the two geniuses :D

[samtyr.livejournal.com]

I probably should, shouldn't I?. [vbeg]

[olorime001.livejournal.com]

I owe you a fiction.
The drabble turn into a double, then a triple and then a short fic that I haven't finished yet. I owe Perky one too. :P

[samtyr.livejournal.com]

Not to worry; I look forward to anything you write.

I can just imagine Fëanor and Eöl inventing.. idk... something breathtaking and grand and spectacular, yet being unable to make coffee.

[olorime001.livejournal.com]

Indeed!

*bites nails* can't wait till you write it. :)

[samtyr.livejournal.com]

We'll see. I already have at least two "different" ideas for fics as a result of answering these questions... ;)

[chaotic-binky.livejournal.com]

I agree - seven boys just smacks of trying for a girl doesn't it.

I think it does. And I'm pretty sure that after the twins were born, Nerdanel slept with a pair of scissors handy. ;)

LOL... with Eol and Feanor on the same island, you'd never lack entertainment. *g*

[samtyr.livejournal.com]

Definitely no lack of entertainment! ;)

Of course, they might get along perfectly from the get-go, in the way that two like-minded people often do.
