Thanks Inglor for lauding Boz's story.
thanks Boz for updating and I am hoping that whatever took you from the fandom for so long has resolved itself and that you find joy here again.
Thanks Space for saying you will work on Bodysnatcher again. There were certain elements in that one I found very intriguing and am looking forward to seeing where the muse takes you.

Thanks Ya. I know it's a load of rubbish, but I liked the historical tie in stuff, since I put a load of work into that. I'm hoping a few folk remember it and still want to read by the time I'm ready to update (and can forgive the horrible title - but I can't think of a better one at the moment)
Sorry, still  I shall go away now.

thanks Domeair. I just figured it would be a story you would enjoy, based on the story you have published yourself. For my part I'm a silgeek like Inglor. Though I have been reading a lot of romances lately. Hmm, I wonder why....

If vicarious living makes you sad, I should join your club *cuddles her various Elrond romance fics*

Well, if you are into the whole carpe diem thing, you would indeed be a sad person were you to live vicariously.
Cue Robin Williams: "Sucking all the marrow out of life doesn't mean choking on the bone. " ( 10 points for figuring out which movie that is from. Shouldn't be that hard)
However, I find that seezing the day is over rated. So maybe I should indeed make a club for vicariously living through the world of romance

Oh, yes please, that would make two of my favorite but inactive stories coming back to life!

Domeair, you amaze me again: You won't read half the types of stories there are at OSA, and only those in half the categories and below a rating of PG-13 (mostly). It's a wonder you find anything to read on OSA at all ... are you sure this is the archive for you?
Oh, and yes, this post has been:

Domeair - just a note on the types of stories, alot of Romantic and adventure stories are in other categories such as Femme Fatale and AU just to name two. You can only pick one category when posting your story so you have to pick the one that is most predominate. Most of mine are romances (all NC17 so don't stroll over there to read them young lady! ) but they are under various other categories such as AU and Femme Fatale. You know the old saying - don't judge a book by its cover.
And while the Silmarillion is like reading the bible, the stories on here are much easier to understand and some of them are quite romantic. I used to think that Legolas was the sexiest elf until I read the Silm. Now there is Glorfindel, Fingon, Finrod, Turgon, Feanor and his seven sons (okay major mental issues but still sexy), Dior, Finarfin, Ecthelion, Finwe, and my personal favorite Fingolfin. (okay, slightly slanted towards the Noldor - I am sure that Ellisk will swoop in here with her list of hot Teleri elves)

And let us not forget the women of the First Age: Finduilas, Melian, Luthien, Artanis, Aredhel, Miriel, Nerdanel, Amarie, Andreth, Idril, Elwing, etc. Much more interesting than the ones that followed.
Now what the heck were we talking about?
