Iras, if you want to have Lizzy reply to Gaffer Hugo, perhaps you could post it here and then we can have Pio add it to the moved posts on the thread. Sound good?

Finduilas · 01-10-2008, 01:55 PM

Where is Boromir?

piosenniel · 01-10-2008, 04:15 PM

DONE

Those posts of Iras and lmp are now moved so that they follow post #25.. (HERE).

They are now collectively post #26.

And what was #26 (Valier's post of 12/18), is now #27. So - if anything needs to be smoothed out now - Valier can insert it into that post of hers.

Valier · 01-10-2008, 05:04 PM

Ok I've filled my save, have a read and let me know if anything needs to be changed.
Gwath can you have fred and brown and us discuss the adventure and get brown going. then we can have reaction posts from Lommy and myself.

And yes where is Boro and Sephiroth.....worrying..

littlemanpoet · 01-10-2008, 05:11 PM

Thanks so much, Pio!

I'm on it.

Valier · 01-10-2008, 08:31 PM

Yes thank you Pio!

Iras I think there is a problem with your last post. just go back to the post near the top of your with every ones posts on it and edit it to add that last bit. because now it is at the bottom. You'll need to delete the last post and just edit in your lines.

Is there anyway in particular this conversation ought to go? I'm working on the post (yes, I'm NOT doing it off the cuff for once), and I'm not entirely sure how to portray Tansy and Bunny. How far should I take the conversation? Maybe just a few sentences in, and then let Valier and Thinlomien finish it off with a few swift blows to the neck and head? Suggestions?

Right. Iras, just add your last entry to the bottom of post # 26, then your last post can be deleted because all of that is already in post # 26.

piosenniel · 01-11-2008, 05:08 AM

Iras

I deleted your last post to the RPG thread, and placed your most recent part of that post in post #26.

Post #26 on the RPG thread is under your name - so, you can go into it and edit your parts of it as you need to.

Please check your PM's.

~*~ Pio

Valier · 01-11-2008, 12:48 PM

thanks again Pio!!

Gwathagor if you can bring us right through a conversation with brown and fred. Have fred discuss the girls adventure and have brown perhaps comment that he is good in the wild and has lots of knowledge and what not, then have fred invite him to go. Then you can just answer and then leave it to us girls to respond.

Then if we could get the day at Peony's finished.
I will end our day at Tansy's and post a starter post for the following morning having us, at Tansy's head over to Peony's and pick up the group there. as soon as the group at Peony's is done. we may need to put in a save for Boro if he does not appear soon. We need to get past this day and I would like to do it fairly quickly if we can.

Gwathagor · 01-11-2008, 12:58 PM

Ok, lovely.

Valier · 01-14-2008, 02:55 PM

any idea Gwathagor, when you will be able to post that post?

Also Kitanna, Finduilas, LMP and Boro can you four finish up your day at Peony's. You still need to get the men going along with the girls. Not sure where Boro is, but if needed I am sure we can put in a save for him and continue without him for a bit.

Also Iras needs to fit in here as well. Was she invited to Peony's? will you be bringing her in before the day is out? Or perhaps we meet her on our way out tomorrow morning? Which ever way is fine.

Just tryin' to keep things moving...

Finduilas · 01-14-2008, 03:12 PM

I think either Elempi or Boromir should post next, Boromir's being more fitting, but if he isn't around, then I think Elempi would be able to post.

Kitanna · 01-14-2008, 03:22 PM

I agree. Once LMP or Boro posts, questioning Mira, then the whole adventure plan can come out, bringing them into the party.

Gwathagor · 01-14-2008, 05:42 PM

I'm sorry, I'll finish the post right now.

Gwathagor · 01-14-2008, 06:35 PM

There, I've posted. I'm awfully sorry for holding things up. I hope the post is satisfactory. I didn't feel as good about it as I have about others, but I suppose it will have to do. Let me know if I need to make any changes.

littlemanpoet · 01-14-2008, 08:58 PM

Hee hee!

Nice turn of the conversation, there Gwath.

I would post next, but it seems to me that Finduilas or Kitanna should post, as they are the ones with the news, which Hugo and Rudy .... and Lizzy (who has accepted their invitation and is now enjoying the hospitality of Melilot) have not yet heard.

Unless you want me to have the men raise the question. Okay, I'll try a post of that nature.

Gwathagor · 01-14-2008, 09:09 PM

Ah, glad you (someone besides me) enjoyed it.

littlemanpoet · 01-14-2008, 09:22 PM

Glad to see you posting, Iras.

Um, I'm wondering about something though...... if Lizzy is in Peony's house, drinking Melilot's tea, she hasn't heard about the adventure yet because Peony and Mira haven't confessed to it yet. So Lizzy's thoughts are at this point just a bit ahead of the game, I'm thinking.

Oh, and I think there's a Shire rule that rpg posts must be at least 2 paragraphs.

Can you edit your posts to take care of these things, Iras? Sorry to be such a bother....

Valier · 01-15-2008, 11:03 AM

Lommy if you could continue our conversation with Fred and Brown and get Brown coming with us.

Fin & Kit if you could comment and get the men involved.

once everyone is invited along I will end the day.

piosenniel · 01-15-2008, 12:38 PM

Iras

Please check your PM's.

Thanks!

~*~ Pio

Thinlómien · 01-15-2008, 02:18 PM

Valier - I'll continue. I think I should have time to do it tomorrow or on Thursday at the latest.

Thinlómien · 01-16-2008, 07:03 AM

Done. I wasn't sure where to finish. Did you Valier say you wanted to end the day? Hope it's aliright that I stopped where I did.

And I'm sorry that my post turned that dramatic, I didn't think it would.

And also, my apologies if Brown or especially Bunny look like total idiots, I can edit if they're acting too stupidly, just tell me...

Valier · 01-16-2008, 11:31 AM

the post looks great Lommy. I can finish up the day from there, unless Gwathagor you want to add something from Brown. Let me know if you do and I'll wait for you to finish.

Everyone at Peony's we are almost finished our day at Tansy's. Please finish up your day and I will end ours.

Gwathagor · 01-16-2008, 05:53 PM

Sure, I'll try to get something up within the next couple of days.

Kitanna · 01-16-2008, 09:12 PM

My internet has been pretty unstable these past few days and so I haven't been able to make a decent post. However, Fin and I may be starting another PM conversation and we need LMP and/or Boro to join. Would that work for you two to have a PM conversation bringing at least one other member of Mira's family into the adventure. Then the other and Iras can join.

No, no. It was a welcome change to have a rather serious post. I can't speak for Bunny, of course, but I'd say you did Brown justice. He didn't seem stupid, just reticent.

I'd be happy to join the PM conversation. And I think it would be great for Iras to join, sooner than later.

Boromir88 · 01-17-2008, 10:49 AM

Sorry if this is becoming a bit of a habit. I'm glad to see I haven't kept anyway delayed. We've had a bit of a scare as a tax has just been added onto a major highway we use for transporting materials, and it's expected to add on an extra 1.2 million dollars in expenses a month, so after the holidays we've been scrambling to reconfigure the budget and all that fun stuff. This may happen again, where I disappear for extended periods of time, I apologize for any inconvenience it causes.

I've been catching up today, and will finish doing that, just let me know what I need to do.

Valier · 01-17-2008, 03:19 PM

Well Hello Boro! Nice to see you back, if even for a bit.

Right now I think everyone at Peony's is getting the day finished. I am sure you can chat with them (LMP,Fin,Kit, and our newest member Iras) and figure out what you should do.

Gwathagor · 01-20-2008, 10:22 PM

New post up. As usual, tell me what I need to change and I shall attend to it with zeal and only moderate complaining.

Valier · 01-21-2008, 08:21 AM

very good post Gwathagor!!!

How is the PM post going everyone? How long till it is up?.

Don't mean to pester, but well...hey, that's my job.

littlemanpoet · 01-21-2008, 09:59 AM

The PM post is coming along nicely. Mira has spilled the beans to Hugo and Rudy and Peony has just overheard it and been called out by Gaffer Hugo. Iras is getting set to add a bit here and there regarding Lizzy. MIght be a day or two more before it's up. It'll be good, so wait patiently please.

Valier · 01-22-2008, 11:01 AM

excited to see the pm post

Always patiently waiting

littlemanpoet · 01-22-2008, 09:28 PM

The PM post is not in my hands, since I did not save my last send, but I think it's close to ready.

Iras chose to have Lizzy not join the conversation with the rest of them, so she can post separetly when she wishes to.

Boromir88 · 01-23-2008, 09:22 PM

The PM post is up...I think the wait was worth it Val.

Gwathagor · 01-23-2008, 10:30 PM

Jolly good post, everybody. Snatch is already my favorite character. I think he and Brown will get along very well.

Thinlómien · 01-24-2008, 01:43 AM

That post was just hilarious.

Excellent work. What happens next?
