Don't worry, the twins--especially Telvo--are pretty major characters in this story.
Phew! Good thing. The twins really don't get enough screen time. Even I don't have much in my head concerning them or their personalities.
Technically, Valaquenta is supposed to be regarded as written by Rumil and given to the world by JRR.
Yeah, and I figured that's why you used it, so I almost didn't say anything. It's just one of those things that I personally wouldn't have written. I probably would have said something like "the accounts of the Valar" or something. (How many times can I use "something" in a sentence?)
I don't like making up names either. I feel like I can't trust any info I find on Quenya words and word forming, etc.
Sometimes, it was my hair, which was three feet of icky!scary.... o.O
Hehe, if it's my hair, I pick it out and discreetly drop in on the floor or something. Luckily, my hair is not as long as yours. ;)
It's all part of the strangeness that is going on in the family. Erestor eventually develops his own theories about them (which is rather in line with what pervy Alina kept thinking while reading this) but it's more complex than that.
*SNERK* Strange is probably a good word. And complex. I'll just have to wait to find out more. I can only do so much hypothesizing/theorizing/thinking in one 24 hour period. ;)
For me, this is where most characterization takes place because people don't tend to act completely like themselves in dramatic situations.
Oh definitely. But not everyone can make it interesting (like me). Eep, Maeglin. I think he might be even more complex than Feanor. (I just tried to type "Feannoy" about six times...ain't that the truth? :P) Have you a story idea for good ol' Maeglin in mind there? >;)
At any right, I think you're right. Everyday Stuff is where you can really see a person's "normal" personality.
I don't think I've written many Daily Dramas, etc...I'm too skerd
On a totally unrelated note, I was going to take a super hot bath and see if I couldn't write something on real paper. But apparently the stopper thing is broken so the water drains out of the tub no matter what. I am more upset by this than I normal person should be. (Later, I think I will try writing in the hot tub).
No, it took about three months of sporadically working on it to finish it. It was "mentally" written months before that, though lots of unexpected subplots showed their little faces and kept things interesting!
Haha, good. Three months is a much better time frame to complete a story. And I love unexpected subplots! Especially when they're part of someone else's story, not crazying up my own. ;)
