"August 2005: A Realistic Legolas Story"
The challenge for August 2005 is ...
Write a very realistic story about Legolas that happens before the Lord of the Rings.
Challenges must be submitted in August 2005 (so, September 1 is too late). Plan your story length accordingly. Best luck! |

At the risk of sounding glib, cuz I don't feel glib, can you expand just a touch on 'realistic'?

| I'm not really sure what the challenger meant by "realistic." But, you know, if Lego gets sweaty during sex, that sounds like realism to me. |

LMAO
 Gee, I hope I'm not getting a rep.
I could become pigeon holed and my oft longed for career of becoming the author of Sears & Roebuck's catalogue could be in jeopardy.

BTW Miss Vivveh, (I saw the word lube and went to my happy place for a bit), the thing I was wondering about was realistic in a tolkien sense or in a real life sense. Cuz some of the things I am thinking of as being realistic are so very un-canonlike. Just wondering.

If you're deviating from Tolkien canon (which I am all for), just write an AN noting such.
What, are you bringing beer and Rol-Aids to Middle-earth? |

How about an utterly in-keeping-with-canon-and-LACE story? - no siblings, no former wives, no mother etc.
Seems to me, what with ME on the brink of war, Dol Guldur, Gollum, battle of the five armies and such there's plenty of excitement without going out of canon to find it.
I dare you ...
