I sent Gandalf to Magic Town to learn some Istari-type shit (in his pajamas of course), but this obviously did not go as planned. Gandalf gets his ass handed to him in a duel with the apothecary dude and also fails miserably at snake-charming.

The day is not a complete loss, however – Gandalf drowns his sorrows in rewards himself with a bucket of popcorn.

  • The members of this household are forever in their pajamas
  • More fun sleeping arrangements
  • Legolas gives new meaning to the word “flowerbed”
  • Aragorn picks a fight with Faramir and wakes up an angry Gandalf from his sleep
  • Arwen writes up a missing persons ad for her father (seriously has anyone seen Elrond???)
  • Boromir starts a fire in the kitchen; Legolas cares not
  • Boromir starts hitting on Arwen, awks

It’s date night for Arwen and Aragorn! They head downtown to the boardwalk.

  • Arwen kicks things off by giving Aragorn a box of chocolate; the gesture is well-received, +1 Arwen
  • Arwen decides to pull out a hand puppet and talk through it in a silly voice; Aragorn is done with her shit, -1000 Arwen
  • Arwen starts to think the date should head in another direction, so she pulls Aragorn in for an intimate embrace; Aragorn is feeling the hug and so is Random Toga Guy who looks on
  • Arwen goes in for the kiss! Apparently nothing exciting happens on this boardwalk as their courtship is a source of great amusement for the other patrons
  • No date is complete without ice cream (read: Aragorn wouldn’t stop whining about how hungry he was)
  • Legolas arrives on the lot, jumps into the pool, and promptly leaves
  • Frodo’s got game (literally – he spent the whole night playing chess with some blonde townie babe)
  • Boromir and Faramir can’t go anywhere without each other, it seems (although I’m pretty sure Faramir just hit up Cornelia Goth for a coffee date)

The sleeping situation in Rivendell is far from ideal – not enough beds to go around and no one wants to share.

Arwen would rather sleep on the floor at the foot of the bed instead of sleeping, I don’t know, anywhere else.

Aragorn passes out next to Boromir’s bed; Boromir wakes up the next morning, flails around because Aragorn is blocking his way, and promptly falls back to sleep. 

Some TS1 fun while I wait for TS2 to load. Back in the Rivendell household…

  • Gandalf doesn’t understand boundaries and tries to converse with Frodo in the bathroom; Frodo has to pee and becomes (understandably) disgruntled
  • The conversation gets a bit personal between Elrond and Legolas in the hot tub
  • Everyone fights over the remaining two spots in the hot tub; Elrond continues to make awkward conversation (this time with his daughter)
  • Frodo remains disgruntled – Legolas stole his bed and Frodo refuses to share
  • Gandalf dreams of becoming a rock star

Revival of my Rivendell household from like, ten years ago.

First fifteen minutes of playing (and by playing, I mean letting the game run and watching the magic happen) included:

  • Gandalf and Aragorn being studious (good candidates for leader of the household)
  • Gandalf and Aragorn discovering the pond and feeding fish for hours (retract previous statement)
  • Legolas also being studious; Frodo getting bored and giving up
  • Arwen being normal and drinking tea
  • Boromir and Faramir trying to settle their sibling rivalry once and for all with a game of chess
  • Frodo poking a rock and giggling

Aaaaaand last but not least, Elrond started a fire. God, I missed this.
