The Noldo were all pains in the arse! Nothing but trouble!
Now the Sindar were not only sexy, but clever and less angsty! 
(Aegnor is not included in this. We all know he was the love child of Thingol and a barmaid!)

Trouble is interesting. At those particular pains in the arse did more than hide behind Melian's girdle.
As for Aegnor being the love-child of Thingol and a barmaid...that would explain the mullet.

Thanks, BB! I´d love to have a chewed woodelf (damn, I almost wrote 'weedelf'...  ). I won´t heal him, though. I want him to stay disorientated, otherwise he won´t like me.  |

 Its ok Anna, if it makes you feel better, I have to bind, gag and drug mine. Actually I could probably just drug them, but wheres the fun in that?

Not to pick on anyone in particular ... but I was wondering about the term "elfling": Canon or Fanon?
This is a good thread to revive. So much useful information (along with the inevitable cr*p, of course  ).

I have to say I don't know. I can't remember seeing it in the texts, but that's not to say it isn't there.
Can't say as the term offends me though, even if it is fanon. I've used it myself a fair few times.

Fanon. I learnt it from reading Jay of Lasgalen's stories.

I rarely use it but I have used it before. I always struggle with - is it proper to call them children, a girl, or a boy? Cause those are human terms. But in Paradox I had one line where the OC's mom said, I hope we have a little boy. (She was pregnant) and I wondered if that was wrong but saying "little ellon" sounded dumb. I dunno whats right.

I love the word elfling. I am currently too tired to look up the whole discussion that once was held on the yahoo group of Stories of Arda where someone said that Gimli called Legolas Princeling and from there, I believe the word elfling was born...

Definitely fanon--Tolkien never uses that term in any of his works. He refers to children as children.
Personally, I don't care though. I like the word and it helps with word variety when you are writing stories that focus on young elves.

What about Legolas being the best elven archer around? Canon or fanon? I see that a lot in fics, but I can't think of a place where that is stated.
