Evisse the Blue · 08-19-2004, 01:01 AM

Nope

Morsul the Dark · 08-19-2004, 02:08 AM

Smeagal

Evisse the Blue · 08-19-2004, 02:15 AM

No

Morsul the Dark · 08-19-2004, 02:19 AM

Faramir

Evisse the Blue · 08-19-2004, 04:29 AM

No. It's about a character at a particular moment in his life.

The Perky Ent · 08-19-2004, 06:18 PM

Gandalf? When Frodo offers him the ring, he's afraid to take it?

Evisse the Blue · 08-20-2004, 02:00 AM

Nope.

Morsul the Dark · 08-20-2004, 02:05 AM

Eowyn in the houses of healing about Faramir's love

Evisse the Blue · 08-20-2004, 02:10 AM

Good guess, but it's not what I had in mind

Hint: that particular moment in the character's life is not in LOTR.

Morsul the Dark · 08-20-2004, 02:19 AM

is it in the Sil? if it is Im out

Evisse the Blue · 08-20-2004, 02:24 AM

No, not the Sil.

Mariska Greenleaf · 08-20-2004, 02:31 AM

It sounds like Frodo to me...

Evisse the Blue · 08-20-2004, 03:24 AM

Close but no

Mithalwen · 08-24-2004, 12:44 PM

Bilbo's reluctance to hand over the Arkenstone?

Evisse the Blue · 08-25-2004, 01:19 AM

Oh dear. You got the character, but not the situation...

Okay, I'll give it to you!

(what I had in mind actually was Bilbo at the beggining of his quest, when he's torn between his Took side and his Baggins side.)

Evisse the Blue · 09-10-2004, 03:37 AM

Anyone who can come up with one can go!

Evisse the Blue · 11-23-2004, 06:54 AM

Here's a super easy one to get this thing going again: (geez, three posts in a row by me...)

That fits someone we know to a T...lol! So who is it?

Rimbaud · 11-23-2004, 07:59 AM

Gollum?

Evisse the Blue · 11-23-2004, 08:30 AM

That fits him too, but it fits someone else better...the 'T' part was a hint!

**The Saucepan Man** · 11-23-2004, 09:27 AM

Turin Turambar?

Evisse the Blue · 11-24-2004, 07:08 AM

Yes, he's the one.

Treat us to some Beatles classic, SPM, or whatever else you desire!

I'm dying, dying to wake up without you, without you in my head again
Dying, dying to forget about you, that you ever lived,
There's a shade come over this heart that's coping with laying down to rest
I'm dying to live without you again.

Should be fairly obvious...

**The Saucepan Man** · 12-15-2004, 06:00 PM

Erm, hroom hoom. Sorry for forgetting this one. I was trying to find some lyrics that did not relate to Frodo, Gollum, the Ring, Aragorn/Arwen, Faramir/Eowyn or Turin Turambar. Took so long that I forgot to come back ...

Anyway, is it Frodo to the Ring?

Elennar Starfire · 12-15-2004, 09:49 PM

Saucy's got it!

**The Saucepan Man** · 12-16-2004, 04:11 AM

Why thank you, Elennar.

Next up:

Have you seen your brother, baby, standing in the shadow
Have you had another baby, standing in the shadow
I was just passing the time
I’m all alone, won’t you give all your sympathy to mine
(Have you seen your mother baby - The Rolling Stones)

Who might have said this - and to whom?

**The Saucepan Man** · 12-22-2004, 06:53 PM

I thought that this one would be rather easy.

Any takers?

Orual · 12-22-2004, 10:45 PM

Just a guess, but...Boromir?

**The Saucepan Man** · 12-22-2004, 10:51 PM

Nope, not him.

Elennar Starfire · 12-23-2004, 08:10 PM

Is it Faramir then?

**The Saucepan Man** · 12-24-2004, 11:24 AM

No. Not him neither.

Evisse the Blue · 12-27-2004, 04:49 AM

Brandir to Nienor?

**The Saucepan Man** · 12-29-2004, 11:43 AM

I was actually thinking of Glaurung to Nienor, but Brandir fits the last two lines better.

So you're up next Evisse.

Evisse the Blue · 12-30-2004, 04:35 AM

Thanks.
So it's me again....(I'm thinking of advertising this thread following the example of a couple of worthy Downers

).

Ok, here's a cool line:

"I'm so far away that each step I take is on my way home..."
(Bon Jovi, Bed of roses).

Elennar Starfire · 12-30-2004, 08:36 PM

For some reason that makes me think of Beren, though Frodo is perhaps the more obvious potential answer.

(is that cheating? if it is, I'm very sorry)

Evisse the Blue · 12-31-2004, 06:15 AM

It's not cheating since it's neither of them.

As a hint: this person is even further away from 'home' as these two, and is very nostalgic about it...

Hookbill the Goomba · 12-31-2004, 05:38 PM

Could it be Bilbo in The Hobbit?

Evisse the Blue · 01-01-2005, 09:26 AM

Not him either.

Hookbill the Goomba · 01-01-2005, 09:38 AM

Perhaps it is Feanor when returning to Middle Earth?

Evisse the Blue · 01-03-2005, 01:14 PM

Nope, but you're getting really close! Now think Third Age.

Hookbill the Goomba · 01-03-2005, 01:35 PM

Here is a guess; Gandalf? Talking about going to Middle Earth, or perhaps returning to Valinor?
