~*Imladris Christmas Party*~

[Mippin]

Mip supposed she was supposed to be paying attention to the debate, and for the most part she was. But she was much more interested in her guitar. She fiddled around, playing a few chords to add suspense, or something like that to the debate. As she fiddled around, she wondered why it sounded so familiar. She looked over at Dom. 'Did that just sound like some song you've heard before, or have I been a DJ for waay too long?' He tilted his head. 'Play it again...' Mip played it again, and then he grinned. 'Yeah, it sounds like a song I've heard before...keep playing.' he said. Mip wasn't sure what she was going to end up playing, but nonetheless she kept playing.

At last it hit her, and she realised what song she was unconciously playing. It seemed everyone was yelling, in the heated debate. Mip still knew what they were talking about, but, had a way of tuning them out without doing so. She turned the mic away, and kept playing, and sang very softly. Nil glared at her when she unconciously began to get louder, so Mip stopped, glared back, and then strummed a few chords exceptionally loud to calm the others down. Then she grinned. 'Carry on, scholarly debate this time, not a playground fight, eh?'

After a while, everyone grew increasingly louder and increasingly hostile. Which was rather odd for a debate on christmas tree colours, but anyway... Mippin stodd up suddenly, and cranked up the volume, and went into a very long guitar solo to quiet everyone down. She then smiled sheepishly, and took out Frod. 'Don't make me use this.' she said, now grinning menacingly, and stroking Frod gently. 'Mwahahaha.' she cackled softly, then stopped fiddling around with the guitar. This time she actually listened intently to the debate.

[Ophelia]

After fighting one on one with a faery and defeating it with a powerful left hook she placed it in her secretly hidden bag .

The chicken dance was over and she could hear Nilly saying something about a debate but she couldnt quite hear what excactly when she finally came out of the vine srorage that was chosen as the fighting area . A thoght about asking Nilu to repeat what she had said but first she was on for revange .

Ophe ran to the bar and asked for a bigger shot of vodka and took it , then ran to the storage again . When she came out again she located her target and went sneaking towards it . Lossy....

Ophe sneaked up on her and used a moment to draw out a drunk-looking faery an as quickly as she could she placed the mad little creature behind Lossies backside of the dress . then was the time to run as quickly as she could to Nill and ask her to repeat the topic of debate inocently but still watching the around jumping and half flying Lossy , trying to get the faery out , with one eye and trying to look shocked about what was going on .

[Lossentilien]

Lossie held the swaying faery in her hand. People all around the room were still watching her as though she was insane. Nothing new there then. After her bizzarre scene, she could hardly blame them anyway. She shook the faery a little. Poor thing was drunk. Who would get a faery drunk, she wondered. Just plain cruel. She bent her head slightly to speak to the bleary-eyed creature. The faery mumbled something and pointed an unsteady hand. Lossie swivled her head in the direction the faery pointed. Nilly? Lossie wondered in confusion...then she noticed a certain other Imladris member giggling behind Nilly's back. Of course, she whispered. Ophelia. Lossie winced from the pain the faery had caused her back. She smiled maliciously at Ophelia, and began to plot her own revenge...

[Alatáriel]

Ala had caught a green faerie. She had it in a small glass jar. Snickering e-viley, she shook the jar lightly. Elijah raised an eyebrow at her, 'Erm, dude, are you going to torture that faerie?'

'No.' Ala set the jar on the counter. She took out a cherry and dropped it into the jar. The faerie ate it and suddenly turned a lightish redish colour. Ala snickered. She set the jar down on the floor by Twitchy. He walked over to the jar, raised his paw, and began pawing at the lid. Ala snickered and picked up the jar again and set it on the counter. The faerie had turned green again.

Taking a bottle cap, Ala poured some hot chocolate into it and set it in the jar. She turned her attention away from the faerie and to the person who was wanting some hot chocolate of their own. 'Watch... the... jar... dont let anyone take it... and whatever you do, Do not!, do not let the faerie go... or else,' she said, giving Elijah the e-vile eye. She turned and made some hot chocolate, eyeing the jar every few seconds. ' 'ere ya go.'

She took out another cherry and gave it to the faerie. It turned a deeper red after it ate it... interesting...

[BKnight]

Hello, guys!
From what I had understood I'm the oldest member around and I should post a thanks here.
So, here it goes...
Hannon le to everybody. Great site, great topics, I'm proud to be a member. I just wish I had more time to go browsing around.
Namrie, melloni!

[Firondoiel]

It was so peaceful here in the dark. Nothing but penguins squeaking, swords slashing, and hammers crashing. Quite delightful. How many penguins could one steal before having to go back to reality one wonders. Perhaps one should try. Alas, it is too late...

Firi's head jerked up when she felt a hand touch her shoulder. She turned to see Orli staring at her. "What do you want?" asked Firi a little grumpily.

Orli shrugged. "It just seemed a bit early to me for someone to be sleeping at the party."

Firi looked around and noticed the debate going on. "Yeah, good point. But I was not asleep mind you! Merely in marvelous oblivion. Now, what to do...."

"Uh, join in the debate?" suggested Orli. Firi shook her head. "I'm not very good at those sorts of things, besides, that chandelier is looking very tempting."

Orli followed her gaze to the magnificient fixture hanging from the ceiling. He turned back to her with shock in his eyes. "You wouldn't.....would you?" he asked fearfully.

Firi smiled e-villy. "I could and I would and I think I might."

[Alatáriel]

Ala took out a small poyple bottle. She took another bottle cap and poured some ginger ale into it then droped three drops of the purple liquid into it. Stirring it around a bit, she then set it into the jar. The faerie imediatly went over to it and took a few sips. It turned a dark purple. Ala snickered. She poked Elijah and he turned to look at it. He went to pick up the jar, and right when his hand was about to touch it, Ala hissed at him. He quickly moved his hand away and studied the faerie.

Ala picked up the jar and set it on the bar behind the bar, if that makes sense. She took out a slice of lemon, and set it in the jar. Turning her attention back to the front bar, she set her chin into her hands. 'What are you planning to do with that faerie?' Elijah asked, eyeing the faerie.

Ala shrugged, 'Why?' She raised an eyebrow.

'Nothing.' he said, turning his attention elsewhere.

Ala raised her eyebrow again. She made herself a cup of hot chocolate.

[Firondoiel]

An e-vile gleam was in her eye as Firi walked around the room. A fearful look was in Orli's. ElberethVarda came running up to Firi. "Aren't you going to join in the debate my dear Balin?" she asked with a giggle.

"Nay, my darling Bombur." replied Firi, eager to get on with her e-vile scheme.

"Don't you have an opinion?" persisted Elbereth. Firi struggled to hide her impatience but she knew she better just state an opinion quick.

"Personally, I prefer the traditional green Christmas trees for that is the true colour of the trees and I am partial to the natural appearance. However, white is not too terribly horrid, for it gives one the sensation that the tree is covered in snow. However, as a true lover of nature, and as an elf, green is best for any tree. Thank you."

Firi said this all with great speed of course and left Elbereth trying to comprehend everything she said.

Firi couldn't help chuckling when she looked at Orli's confuzzled face. All of the sudden, Firi stopped short and Orli bumped into her so hard that she found herself on the floor with Orli on top of her.

"Oh Valar!" she mumbled. Orli leapt up and helped her to her feet. Firi rolled her eyes and glared at him before turning back to the rope that held the chandelier up. "Menelien and Trippo's tradition must be kept."

[GaladrielOlden]

GOTO walked about the room, trying to decide what to do. The debate was in full swing, but she'd never had a Christmas tree and didn't honestly much care about their colors. Suddenly, noticing some suspicious looking action in a dark-ish corner, she raced over, her sneakers skidding on the nice flooring.

Pulling on Firi's coat, and staring up at the chandelier above, she asked innocently: "Whatcha doin'?"

[Firondoiel]

Firi looked just as innocently at Menelien. "What am I doing? Why nothing, nothing at all."

"Mmhmm. That's what I thought." Menelien replied.

Orli thought perhaps he had found someone who would put a stop to the madness that the crazy being he was tied to was doing. "She's trying to crash the chandelier!" he blurted out.

Menelien gasped. "No! Firi? You must be joking."

Firi looked shocked as well. "Really Orli. Me?"

Menelien and Firi stared at each other for a moment. "You don't mind if I join do you?" asked Menelien. Firi smiled, "I've been wondering how long it would be before you came."

Firi and Menelien began the long climb up the rope to the chandelier. Orli was unwillingly dragged along behind Firi. The voices of those debated could be heard beneath them. No one was aware of what the two mischievous girls were up to.

Menelien reached their destination first and climbed onto the chandelier and made room for Firi and Orli.

"It's a long way down." commented Menelien. Orli gulped and looked over the side. "That's a good thing though." said Firi. "The more fun for us."

Firi and Menelien began to swing on the chandelier. The ropes groaned in protest as the the heavy fixture swung to and fro. Firi and Menelien just laughed while Orli has his eyes closed tight. "Oh my goodness!" exclaimed Firi as she gasped for breath. "I can't believe I didn't join you with this at the Downies!" Before Menelien could reply, the ropes snapped.

"Look out below!" shouted Firi. The debaters looked up and quickly leaped out of the way as the chandelier came falling down. Excited whoops were heard from Firi and Menelien. A shrill scream of terror came from Orli as they neared the floor.

A loud crash was heard and shattered pieces of the chandelier went flying. Everyone quickly shielded their faces. There was a silence, then everyone finally put their arms down. The chandelier was a wreck. Fragments of it were everywhere. But where was Menelien, Firi, and Orli?

The sound of insane laughter answered their questions. Up above, hanging from the rope that used to hold the chandelier, was the trio. Firi and Menelien were shrieking with giggles but Orli still had his eyes closed.

"You two come down here right this minute!" demanded Elentari sternly. She was rather miffed about her chandelier but was always concerned for her friends.

"Certainly, oh Fairly Knowledgeable Eru!" answered Firi before turning and sliding down the rope they had come up. She landed lightly on the ground followed by Menelien. They now stood side by side as the surprised partiers came towards them.

"Are you alright?" asked Elentari.

"Fine, fine." replied Firi.

"I think." added Menelien. Orli didn't respond seeing as how he was passed out on the floor.

Everyone stood staring at each other until finally, Nilly smiled. Then Elentari giggled, then everyone was laughing (except Orli of course).

"I apologize about the chandelier." said Firi between laughs. "But don't worry about it! I wouldn't have broken it if I couldn't replace it."

Two random Elves walked in carrying a new chandelier and began to install it. "Nice." commented Menelien. "This one should be even more fun, eh?"

"NO!" shouted everyone, but Firi and Menelien laughed.

"Just kidding, just kidding." said Menelien.

"I think." added Firi.

They looked at each other and then began to laugh again.

[Elentari]

Elentari muttered a few words and smiled as some partiers who didn't know she was an Istari-Elf gasped at the pieces of the chandelier suddenly disappearing. She then waved her staff in Orli's direction and turned away before he even stood up.

"Well," said Elentari. "It seems I need to keep you lot entertained!"

She walked to the stage and stood no where near the microphone as she announced:

"I hereby declear a pause in the debate, making way for the start of the Squeaky Object Duels! Who shall challenge me? I shall use no magic, as will none of the other contestents. The only weapons shall be those of the squeaky kind.[/size]"

Stepping away from the stage, Elentari enterd a large arena for the duels, which others were sure a previously not been there. Putting aside her sword, she waved her staff. A large squeaky hammer, known as the Squeaky Hammer of Doom, appeared from thin air, to be caught by Elentari's right hand. She put aside her staff and held her shield in her left hand, right hand holding the Squeaky Hammer of Doom (SHoD) in a ready stance.

[Orofaniel]

"A Duel?", Oro said to herself? "A duel?" She said and turned to Nova. "Yes obviously," Nova replied. "How fun is that!!" Oro exclaimed, and smiled. "It is....fun.." Nova said and grinned. "Do you think I c-could...join?" Oro asked Nova enthusiastically.

"I dunno...." Nova said and turned her head towards the arena. "Why don't you ask..?" Nova said and gave a short, evil laugh.

"Yeah...why don't I?" Oro said and smiled again. ”After all, Elentari had said; "Who shall challenge me?" Oro thought.

Oro cleared her throat. "Er..." The people were now looking at Oro. The silence came over them, and they waited. "I-I...C-hallenge y-you." Oro said and smiled even wider. "Is that alright, eh?" She continued. Nova gave a short laugh, but Oro didn't pay any attention.

[Ophelia]

Ophelia heard the announcment on the microphone said by Elentari . The squeeky objets duels !!!!!

Ophe heard the magic phrase - "Who shall challenge me ?" said again by Elentari . She was dashin towards El to make the challenge when she tripped over somebodys foot . "Oah , sorry ." said Lossy with an evel grin . And Ophe heard Oro`s challenge .

"Darn ... !!!" she thought to herself . "Bloody hell ... !!!" was the second thought . And out came the third one but this time loudly : "And who will challenge me and my squeeky vodka bottle ?"

[Lëowen]

Leo waved a hand, and her Official Whacking Weasel of Doom appeared in her right hand, ready to whack. From the other side of the room, she heard Ophelia call out, 'And who will challenge me and my squeeky vodka bottle ?'

Leo stepped forward, waving the Weasel. 'I challenge you, Ophelia of the squeaky vodka bottle! Mwahahaa!'

[Alatáriel]

Ala gave an e-vile grin. The squeaky object duel. She took out her giant squeaky-plastic penguin and then a squeaky version of Sting for Elijah. 'Erm, is this going to hurt?'

'It may... depends on who you are battling, and how they fight. Bwahahahaha ha!' Ala cackled. Ala held up her penguin. She paused for a moment, looked down at Twitchy. Taking out a squeaky cat-sized helmet and laid it on his head, 'Just incase, little one.'

She stowed the faerie away in a cupboard, for it not to fall and break the jar, GASP!, oh, what Nil would do to her if that were to happen. She sat down and awaited a challenger.
