Technically, I'm not a newbie as I joined in September 2003, posted two stories and never came back. Until yesterday when I was looking for some Elrond stories and had pretty much exhausted HASA and SOA. And found my stories had reviews - I didn't even know OSA had reviews! It's probably a bit late to reply to year-old reviews, but if anyone reading this reviewed either of my stories, I love you forever.
As you might have guessed from the previous paragraph, and my avatar, I love all things Elrond, especially if they're angsty. You can't go wrong with a good bit of Elrond angst.
I'm also partial to a bit of Aragorn, any of Elrond's kids or wife, pre-quest hobbits, and more recently, Faramir. He does have some quality angst-potential.
And now I've introduced myself, I should go and review the one new story I found, and loved to bits. |

Welcome back, 'Noid!
You will like the people here at OSA. I am still a newbie/fic virgin, as I have not posted yet.
BTW, there are many Lord of Imladris fanciers that you will enjoy meeting.
I am partial is the elves...

Welcome to OSA, or rather welcome back. Glad to have another Elrond fancier on the team.
If your stories are Elrond-centric, I might have read them already, or maybe not, as I'm a bit fussy when it comes to that sort of story (and also since I tend to write mainly Elrond stuff, I don't like to be influenced) but I shall checkout your stories.  _________________ Pervy Nazgul Fancier and owner of Fluffy the Fell Beast |

Hi welcome and welcome back!
You wouldn't mind reading any Legolas fan fics, would you?

Thanks for the welcome, everyone.
Replying to everyone in one post:

This is true, although there's rather a lot less chance of them remembering they reviewed anything.

Excellent, because I can quite happily talk for ages (or Ages?) about Elrond. He's just such an interesting guy.

I've only got one Elrond story on her at the moment, I've got some others I think I need to get sorted first. I can see what you mean about being influenced, and although my Elrond has probably been influenced by other people's, I find that there are so many different interpretations out there that's it easy to find some like mine and some completely different. And I like them both. To a point.

My pleasure

Sorry, I'm not that keen on Legolas, he just doesn't do anything for me, sadly. (Unlike Orlando Bloom, who totally does something for me, but then that's an entirely different something )

Hey Paranoidangel! Can I just call you paranoid for short? or maybe PA if I am really lazy.
OK I was gonna tell you to hook up with the elrond cheerleader - Space but I see she has already found you.
There are tons of stories on here about the twins, Elrond, etc. Elves are more popular than the men so I am not so sure about Aragorn although he would be a good man to be popular wouldn't he? And Faramir, not seen alot of him either. Hmmm.... How bout Eomer? Glorfindel? Haldir is the new craze. Boromir? I have some stories saved about the twins that have come recommended. If you want them PM me.
Anyway - welcome bacK!  _________________ Nagzul #2 - The Nazgul of Shmoove

You know Al, if you're feeling particularly blah, you can always just make the peh sound and drool. HI PARANOID ANGEL. If I were you, I'd turn the music up really loud. Maybe it will drown out all the yelling that's going to go down when Al comes back and reads this.
So, Peh Welcome to OSA in a kinda sorta kinda late way. I'm Bert Parks, you're bat shit anachronym host. I just wanted to let you know that you're reign as newbie (ugh, there's that funky word again) will last until 7p.m. Tuesday of last week. Should you, during that time become incapacitated (from reading these odd postageses) and rendered unable to fullfill your duties as newbie, you will be required to inform us so that we may search for a glitch in the space/time continuum and morph someone into last week to fulfill any unmet obligations. Now, its medication time so if you'll please excuse me, I need to go give Feanor his anit-psychotics
But welcome again. I'll be doin' the drive by pimpin' real soon!

Welcome back, paranoidangel. I remember "Sacrifice of Soldiers." Good stuff. If you're itching to get your hands on Elrond fic, check out Spaceweavil's story page. She's, uh, just a mite impressed with the Lord of Imladris.
Glad to see you around again. |
