Hi. I'm Anne. I'm sort of new to fanfiction and found this spot. I love Elves, but I'm really into the Men - specifically the Rohirrim. (grew up around horses!) Anyone have any recs?

[paranoidangel]

Hi Anne. Welcome to the site, and fanfiction!

I have pretty much zero interest in the Rohirrim, so can't help you with the rec there, though.

[Yavanie]

Rohirrim?

try "Rider of the Mark"
and "Trust to Hope"

both good stories.


and welcome to the madhouse!

and before Ghetto jumps in, for elves and great writing go read "Part I, Circle of Hands"

If you're interested in the NC-17 version of Eomer, check out "Playing Field" by dragonlady7. I just read it recently and it knocked my socks off.

Alassante's "The Elf and Future King" also has a smutty take on both Theodred and Eomer (um, not together), and I'd recommend it as well.

Welcome aboard! Never enough horselord-luvvin around here.

Hi, and welcome to OSA and the wonderful world of fan fiction without the icky stuff you would find elsewhere.


Since you like Elves, go read my stories that I'm currently working on:

Into Darkness My Moriquendi: http://www.openscrolls.net/fanfic/story.php?no=1213 if you want a teary-eyed one.

A Little Bit of Happiness:
http://www.openscrolls.net/fanfic/story.php?no=1486 Legolas washed up on a beach, bound, and slightly injured is priceless (right Al?)

Watchful Friend (short story that's finished, but still thinking of adding more to it): http://www.openscrolls.net/fanfic/story.php?no=1453



- DEC

Thanks Yavannie for reccing me . Nove's Trust to Hope is good, as is Alassante's Elf and Future King.

Might I suggest reading Frigg's stuff. She writes lovely shorts on Eomer.

You didn't say what rating... There is a nice completed fic called The Ghost of Rohan that was MOST interesting - can't remember who wrote it.

Try the search engine - put in Rohan, Rohirrim, Eomer, whatever character you like. That should help.

I've heard GREAT things about DragonLady's fic too. It's definately on my list... (which grows longer by the hour...)

Welcome.

[Texasgirl]

damn! i come and find that all of my eomer reccommendations have been taken!

for elves...

on ff.net: great legolas stories - possibly only good ones on that damn website -

Darma Druid - Irulan 1 & 2
Pallas Analise - The sword of the witchking

for humor, but romance

dreamstrifer - the fresca files

on OSA:
Lady Rheena - to have and to hold,
and the sequal: to love and to live

anyway...welcome!

Heya, and welcome. I'm new here too and it's very friendly, I promise! You'll have lots of fun in this friendly community and the stories are fabulous as well! Take care, and enjoy yourself!

Since you are new to fanfic and if you have a few days there is a fic you must read. The author is no longer here but this fic is a classic. Its not Rohirric centered but should be required reading for all new fanficcers. It is about what would really happen to a girl dropped into ME. All the problems with language barriers, lack of electricity, paper, and plumbing. It is an extremely well written, well researched fic, and a ton of fun to read. It is one of extremely few advertised Mary Sues (self inserts) that I recommend

Don't Panic

It is long but entirely worth the time.

For a good laugh, Viv's Letters from Mordor will have you rolling, pay special attention to the signatures

Welcome, Anne; glad you found your way to OSA, the stories and the forum.
I have three fics to recommend to you and, again, one is Viv's: "Inspired," an oldie but a goody.

Also, Jennnlee's "Celebration" - Eomer nearly PWP. Yummy.

Lastly, for something completely different but really astoundingly insightful, clever and well thought out is Lackwit's "Grima Goldentongue" about the beginning of Grima's career as Theoden's advisor and his background. If your up for something a little more serious (but in no way angsty) you can't do better than this story.

So, will we see any of yours any time soon?

Welcome to the funhouse elfling!

I am a pervy elf fancier and since there are several actions of pimping going on, check out my two stories. Golden Light has both Haldir and Legolas involoved in it, and the other is a Leggy fic.

Oh, and you would do well to peruse SpaceWeavil's great elf/Elrond stories. Very nicely done.

Toodles!

Wenont

[annekenny]

Thank you.

I don't write. I might for me, someday, but right now, no.

I'll read any rating. Like any healthy woman, I like pr0n too!

I'll be honest, the elves I find rather stand-offish and rather prim and proper. The person who introduced me to fanfiction is very tight about what she will and won't read and I honestly don't find her take very fun. Let me get through the Rohirrim reccomendations first and then I'll ask for Elves.

I have read Zee's (or is it ZDV?) Rider of the Mark. (It was first on the list.) Wow! Whoa and more WOW! Honey! You know how to get into a man's head! (very bad joke. I am so sorry!)

Wow - look at the recommendations. I see several weeks of reading all ready! Thanks!

[Alassante]

I see my story has already been pimped so thank you very much ya'll! It's my baby and it loves to be nurtured. Here is the link.

Welcome to the gang Anne! We are a crazy but lovable bunch. Just be wary of GhettoElleth - she's a little Shhhh don't tell anyone though. But her story Circle of Hands is good even though she's kinda touched.

I think you will find that while some elves are snotty, prim, and proper, some elves just wanna have fun. It depends on the writer which one you will get. Sometimes you will even see a silly Elrond. Course the Elrond fanatics have a brain bleed when it happens but you might enjoy it. Ask around - I bet you can find some playful elves. Some of the twin stories (Elladan and Elrohir) and the younger brothers of Lorien (Orophin and Rumil) are funny. Most people write the twins as serious warrior dudes but other write them as scamps, which I love! They are scamps in mine until they have to be serious then they are serious but sensitive warriors. Zee tends to have her elves being not so serious except for certain ones (like Haldir and he even has his goofy off moments) I don't think anyone has every accused her of having prim and proper elves.

If you like Boromir - NancyBrooke has a facination with him and writes good Boromir (some smut some not) stories.

Oh, and someone mentioned Frigg - she has good Eomer stories too!

Viv has a diverse collection herself. She will either make you laugh your ass off or cry. So take a kleenex and go somewhere alone just in case.
