I'm never giving up this elf-wear. I want to stay this tall forever. It's like being a tree or a bear. Hello, little people! No wonder everyone's always patting my head.

Okay, who has healing powers? I can't go into Middle-Earth with a broken arm. I tried to let it heal normally, and it's going fine, but I need to be able to use an Elven bow. You don't understand.

Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobis, you're my only hopes.

Day 2, no Orlando Bloom.

I don't come out and say this often, but after hearing so much about Middle Earth, I really wish I could see this place.

I think I have liked this birthday more so far. Only it makes me miss Mr. Ollivander. He was not here to sing to me this year. He said he would try to be there for the next one, but I suppose it’s hard to plan for this. I will pretend he is here in spirit.

qi alove this wine!

Tomorrow's Valentine's.

Maybe an elf will kiss me.

My luck, it'll be a bearded lady dwarf.

Tomorrow is Valentine's Day. What do you say we be each other's Valentines and go out for lunch at the Prancing Pony? We can act super adorable and get all dolled up for each other. I can even throw in cuddling and hand holding as an added bonus.

Quick linguistics lesson.

Tolkien had Opinions, with a capital O, about Elves and adjectives. Pretty sure he gave his editors heartburn expressing them.

Here's the short version. Elvish = pertaining to the languages of the Elves. Elven = pertaining to everything else having to do with Elves.

Example: The Elvish tongue. Elven robes. Elvish writing. Elven settlements.

He didn't like elfish or elfin at all, pretty much.

"Elvish, elvish has been changed to Elfish, elfish 7 times but left unchanged 3 times. I view this procedure with dudgeon. The older and 'historical' form elvish is still recognized, and appears even in such popular dictionaries as the 'Pocket Oxford'. I suppose I should be grateful that Cox and Wyman have not inflicted the change from elven to elfin ..." - Letters #236

And there's your daily proof that Jason Todd has, in fact, read a book. Enjoy.

→ I need help.

→ Shit, that sounds bad.
→ I'm fine, it's not that sort of help.
→ Sorry.
→ Just talking help.

Steve, I don't care what you're doing this weekend, we're going to find the elves and get stupid drunk. Peg, want to make it a Howling Commandos reunion?

Hey, you're on patrol with me for the next few nights to cover for Laura. Appreciate it buddy, thanks. Oh, and your presence will be required to watch Steve get drunk.

[ FILTERED TO NATASHA ROMANOFF ]
I'm stealing your boyfriend for a few nights, please don't maim me.

What is so good about the Elven wine?

[Batfam]

Have any of you tried the Elven wine? I'm curious.

[Laura Barton, Natasha Romanoff]
So...both of you might smack me for this but I may have sort of poked at the drunken Loki and then he may have told me Happy Valentine's Day...

Filter: Team Voltron

You may join if you would like or do your own thing but, should any of you need me, I will be with Sif and Loki.. I believe Thor will be there too. I will be in good hands, of course. Enjoy your touring!

They don't care if you look different. The people who live here. For anybody who cares.

I feel nekkid without my arrow.

THOR:

Banner's here.

I may need backup.

[Private to Wanda (616)]

so hey, question about your powers... does reality warping also mean you might have an ability to heal? literally asking for a friend.

additional unrelated question, what're you up to tomorrow?

WHERE IS HULK! THIS NOT THOR'S SPACESHIP! IS THIS SAKAAR?! HULK SMASH GRANDMASTER!

[ETA OOC: All conversations with Hulk in this post happen on Tuesday evening, since Hulk has now turned back into Bruce]

Don't worry. The drunken celebration is being recorded for posterity.
