THE
VERY SECRET DIARY OF FRODO BAGGINS:
Day One:
Feeling much better in House of Elrond after nice long nap.
Also, Sam gave me fabulous backrub and bubble bath. Platonic,
brotherly love so wonderful.
Wasn't quite entirely sure why he needed to suck on my toes,
but am assured it has something to do with Elf medicine.
Day Three:
Have agreed to carry Ring to Mordor. In hindsight, probably
a bad move.
Day Four:
Aragorn and Boromir had big fight over who got to carry me up
Mount Caradhras. Aragorn shoved Boromir into snowbank.
Boromir bit Aragorn on the ear. Ring must be affecting them
more seriously than I thought.
Day Six:
Woke up to find Aragorn playing with buttons on my shirt.
He must be after the Ring. Damn its siren call.
Ah well, Sam will kill him if he tries anything.
Day Ten:
Today Legolas began stroking my inner thigh with his bow.
Was stunned. Had no idea Legolas wanted the Ring too.
It must truly be an object of awesome power.
Day Eleven:
Gandalf showed me very strange trick he can do. Apparently pointy
wizard hat not just for show.
Wonder if Ring is affecting him, or perhaps he is just v. peculiar.
Day 24:
Finally feel rested. Is too dark in Mines of Moria for Aragorn
to find me and pinch me as he has been doing lately.
Gandalf fell into shadow. Was sad to see pointy hat go.
Day 27 :
Lothlorien so pretty. Galadriel pretty too. Offered her One
Ring, but she kept saying, "No, there's something else
I'd rather have from you,Frodo Baggins," and trying to
slide foot up inside my breeches.
So, gave her my extra pair of breeches since she seemed fond
of them.
Maybe some kind of breeches shortage in Lothlorien.
Day 30 :
Rowed all day in boats. V. tired. Merry and Pippin offered to
give me a group massage. Nice to have such v. concerned friends.
Glad Ring is not affecting them.
Although did not need back rubbed quite so much, nor other parts.
Pippin does remember we're cousins, right?
Right?
Day 33 :
Boromir tried to take the Ring. Am not entirely certain, but
am fairly sure he also tried to have a little cuddle.
Was most unnerving, as Boromir quite huge.
Day 36 :
Everyone keeps hitting on me. Cannot cope. Off to Mordor.
Sam coming too. Good thing, as will enable me to have more of
those platonic, brotherly foot massages he's so good at.
Am sad to leave rest of Company though, as found myself quite
fancying the idea of shagging Gimli. Chunky braids and huge
helmet quite a turn-on.
Ah, well, he never would have liked me anyway.
THE
SECRET DIARY OF ARAGORN SON OF ARATHORN Part 1
Day One:
Ringwraiths killed: 4. V. good.
Met up with Hobbits. Walked forty miles. Skinned a squirrel
and ate it.
Still not King.
Day Four:
Stuck on mountain with Hobbits. Boromir really annoying.
Not King yet.
Day Six:
Orcs killed: none. Disappointing. Stubble update: I look rugged
and manly.
Yes!
Keep wanting to drop-kick Gimli. Holding myself back.
Still not King.
Day Ten:
Sorry no entries lately. V. dark in Mines of Moria.
Big Baelrog.
Not King today either.
Day Eleven:
Orcs killed: 7. V. good. Stubble update: Looking mangy.
Legolas may be hotter than me.
I wonder if he would like me if I was King?
Day 28:
Beginning to find Frodo disturbingly attractive.
Have a feeling if I make a move, Sam would kill me. Also, hairy
feet kind of a turn-off.
Still not King.
Day 30:
In Lothlorien. Think Galadriel was hitting on me.
Saucy wench.
Nice chat with Boromir. He's not so bad.
Took a shower. Yay!
But still not King.
Day 32:
Orcs killed: none. Stubble update: subtly hairy.
Legolas told me that a shadow and a threat had been growing
in his mind.
I think Legolas might be kinda gay.
Nope, not King.
Day 33:
Orcs killed: Countless thousands. V. good.
Boromir killed by Orcs. Bummer. Though he died bravely in my
arms, am now quite sure that he was very definitely gay.
Not so sure about Gimli either.
RIP Boromir.
Still not King, but at least Boromir seemed to think I was.
Might however have been blood loss.
Day 34:
Frodo went to Mordor. Said he was going alone, but took Sam
with him.
Why?
My God, is everyone in this movie gay but me?
Not so sure about me either.
Still not King, goddammit.
THE SECRET DIARY OF ARAGORN SON OF ARATHORN Part 2
Day One
Ran forty miles across Rohan. No squirrels to eat. Gimli looking
about roasting size. Have been told dwarf tastes like chicken.
Still not King.
Stubble update: satisfactory.
Day Two
Ran into army of Rohirrim. Asked Eomer if he knew where hobbits
were. Got v. cagey answer. Perhaps Eomer still mad about that
last bender I went on where I painted rude words in Elvish all
over his horse. Decided not to mention he has obviously copied
hairstyle from Legolas. He wouldn't be giving me this attitude
if I were King.
Day Three
Once you've seen one pile of smoking dead Orcs, you've seen
'em all. That's all I'm sayin.'
Day Four
Ran into Gandalf. Turns out he did not actually die but instead
was forced by Balrog to sell out to laundry detergent company
and is now Gandalf the Sparkly White. PR whore. Next thing he'll
be charging for pointy hat trick.
Day Six
In Edoras. King Theoden giving me attitude. He was all, "Are
you King here? Last time I checked, I was King here. I'm lookin'
around and I don't see anyone else with a crown on his head.
Eh? Eh?"
Was forced to admit I am indeed still not King.
In revenge, stole his wallet when he was not looking and used
it to open charge account at Gap of Rohan. Have bought matching
poke bonnets for Gimli and Legolas.
Day Seven
Suspect Eowyn fancies me. Cannot blame her as stubble so manly
is turning even self on.
Day Nine
Fell over cliff. Stupid wolves of Isengard. Think was rescued
by Arwen but when woke up was kissing my horse. Bit of a squick
there. Have lost favorite sparkly necklace in river. Feeling
v. petulant as there is no such thing as bad jewelry. Well,
maybe Ring.
Stubble update: wet.
Day Twelve
Triumphant return to Helm's Deep. Got hugged by Gimli. As if
I needed to be reminded that he is belt buckle height yet again.
Necklace returned to me by Legolas, yay! He muttered something
in Elvish that could have been "You're late" or could
have been "Throw me down and shag me rotten." Not
entirely sure which. Must brush up on Elvish as do not wish
to presume.
Still not King but too busy keeping up men's morale to brood.
Upcoming battle should be piece of cake, really.
Day Fourteen
Standing on battlements of Helm's Deep. Absolutely ridiculous
number of Orcs headed this way. Who are we kidding anyway. We
are so fucked. Perhaps this place has a side door.
Day Fourteen, Later
Elves have sent army of most willowy and graceful warriors to
assist us. Will be no use at fighting of course but at least
I will die looking at something pretty. Theoden keeps muttering,
"It's unbelievable!" about elf army. Was forced to
agree --it is unbelievable that Haldir's eyebrows do not match
his weave.
Keep trying to sneak out side door, but Gimli following me everywhere.
Will never be King at this rate.
Day Fifteen
Unexpectedly victorious in battle of Helm's Deep, but celebration
ruined by obnoxious postcard from Faramir, which included picture
of himself on beaches of Osgiliath with tiny Ringbearer and
fat companion, sharing a pina colada and wearing colorful shorts.
Postcard reads:
Dear Aragorn,
Thanks for the Ring and the hobbits. They are small, but v.
bendy. Just what I always wanted! Still have fond memories of
that night we spent together in Minas Tirith. Love and kisses,
Faramir.
God damn Faramir. Might as well just have let Boromir have the
Ring and cut out the middleman. At least I know Sam will kill
him if he tries anything.
Still not King.
THE
VERY SECRET DIARY OF SAMWISE GAMGEE
Day One:
Frodo stabbed by Morgul blade. Oh no! Pippin cried.
Told Pippin it would be all right as Mr. Frodo far too hot to
die.
Did I say that out loud?
Day Three:
Have followed Mr. Frodo to Rivendell where Elves will heal him.
Gandalf told me to help poor unconscious Mr. Frodo get out of
dirty clothes. So took clothes off him and gave him a bath.
and another one.
Then gave him another bath. Gandalf came and told me six baths
was quite enough, Samwise Gamgee.
Poncy old git probably hasn't taken a bath since the Second
Age.
Day Four:
Wonder if it is time for Mr. Frodo to have another bath yet.
Day Five:
Elf bubble bath v. colorful and pretty.
Gandalf no fun at all.
*sulk*
Day Six:
Mr. Frodo awake! Is doing well although also seems concerned
as to why his fingers are all wrinkled.
Decided not to tell him about all the baths.
Day Seven:
Snuck into Council of Elrond. Frodo offered to take Ring to
Mordor.
Mr. Frodo is so brave, handsome, tall and wonderful!
Okay, so possibly isn't all that tall.
Day Eight:
Off to Mordor. Other members of Fellowship v. dodgy if you ask
me.
Especially Boromir. "Teaching Merry and Pippin how to sword-fight"
my Aunt Lobelia.
Obviously pervy hobbit-fancier who likes to roll around with
small men in shorts.
Day Nine:
Aragorn just as pervy as Boromir. Obviously fancies Mr. Frodo.
Will kill him if he tries anything.
Day Ten:
V. dark in Mines of Moria. Used flat edge of sword to whack
Aragorn every time he tried to pinch Mr. Frodo in the dark.
Gandalf fell into bottomless pit.
Mr. Frodo said something later about pointy wizard hat, but
did not understand it as am innocent young hobbit from Shire
not versed in wordily ways.
Pippin says Legolas is shagging Gimli.
Ick.
Day Fifteen:
Lothlorien v. pretty. Blonde elf lady absolutely hitting on
poor Mr. Frodo left, right and center.
Pippin agrees.
Told Pippin height difference would make relationship impossible.
Pippin said Mr. Frodo could stand on stilts.
Hate Pippin.
Day Twenty-Two:
Leaving Lothlorien. Bye-bye grabby elf lady.
Not sure where going exactly, but is obviously somewhere water-related,
as have been given boats. Do not care really as long as get
to share boat with Mr. Frodo.
Day Twenty-Three:
Boromir finally acted on pent-up lust for Mr.Frodo. Got shot
down of course (hurrah!) but not before made spectacle of himself.
Claims was trying to take Ring so as to rule world and bring
down evil, but we all know that's a big fib don't we.
Day Twenty-Four:
Boromir killed by orcs. Knew orcs good for something.
Frodo off to Mordor. Taking me along, hurrah!
Mr. Frodo needs cheering up as seems inexplicably sorry to say
goodbye to Gimli, as well as is depressed and claims is now
sure he will die a virgin in the barren wastelands of the Dark
Lord's realm.
We will see about that.
THE
VERY SECRET DIARY OF GANDALF THE GREY
Day One:
In Shire. Stunning vista of innocent and pastoral beauty. Is
it me, or was Frodo just hanging around in that field masturbating
before I came along?
Day Two:
Bilbo's Birthday party improved by substantial amount of hobbit
weed. Everyone sho nice. Bilbo nice too. Lights sho pretty.
Frodo not bad either. Hobbits sho cuddly. Whups. Fellover.
Day Three:
Massive fecking hangover. Off to Minas Tirith for some aspirin.
Day Twelve:
Went to Saruman for advice about Ring but he had become evil.
Nobody tells me anything. Apparently there was a memo. Radagast
the Brown probably stealing paper out of my inbox again.
Day Thirteen :
Stuck on top of tower. Great view, but constant pelting sleet
not good for pointy hat. Am amusing self by spitting gum down
on the Orcs.
Day Fourteen :
Visited again by Saruman who tried to grab a feel. As if!
Day Sixteen :
Am lonely. Saruman maybe not so unattractive after all. If only
were not for giantly flaring nostrils and huge clawlike fingernails...okay
you'd think I might have figured out he was evil before.
Day Nineteen :
Escaped. Am in Rivendell. Sam slightly out of control. Keeps
giving Frodo baths. Elves all out of strawberry-scented soap
now. Elrond getting annoyed.
Day Twenty :
Elrond has decided to send Frodo away as is tired of never being
able to get into the first-floor bathroom. Big folderol about
Ring. Have agreed to go with Fellowship in case Sam might decide
to give ME a bath. Could use one.
Day Twenty-One:
Aragorn obviously into Frodo. Sam will kill him if he tries
anything. Asked Sam to give me a bath. He said, "Ha ha,
Mister Gandalf, you're not serious." Useless git.
Day Twenty-Three :
V. cold on top of Caradhras. Aragorn won fight about who got
to carry Frodo up the mountain. Boromir sulking. If Legolas
keeps nancing about on top of the snow, may have to hit him
with my staff.
Day Twenty-Five :
Do not want to go through Mines of Moria, as suspect Balrog
still angry about bad date we went on back in Second Age.
Day Twenty-Six:
In Mines of Moria. Yep, Balrog still angry.
Day Twenty-Seven:
Fell into shadow. Balrog such a prat. Had to do some quite unspeakable
things before he would let me leave the caverns. Have decided
not to tell the rest of Fellowship. Will make up story about
having engaged in huge battle instead. Off to see Elrond to
get quite unpleasant third degree burns in embarassing places
treated. Hope Elrond does not laugh at me. If he does, will
tell everyone about his dirty weekend with Sauron. Ha!
THE VERY SECRET DIARY OF ARWEN UNDOMIEL
Day One
Broke up with Aragorn today. He would insist on giving me a
clay pipe and a pair of breeches for Valentine's Day when I
specifically requested a nightie. Have sent him away from Rivendell.
Day Two
Bored and lonely. Regret having sent Aragorn away. So what if
he wanted me to dress up in a curly wig and hop around on my
knees during intimate moments? Am sure other humans have equally
odd hangups. Wish I could be interested in Elf men, but ever
since debacle with Glorfindel back in Second Age when he accused
me of copying his hairstyle, have given up on my own kind.
Day Three
Someone's been trying on my dresses again. They are all stretched
out of shape, especially the purple one.
Day Six
Legolas got all shirty when I accused him of trying on my dresses.
He says I have impugned his masculinity. What masculinity?
Day Eleven
Legolas still sulking. Says other elves making fun of him now
since whole dress-trying-on-incident. Says they no longer take
him seriously as a man. He must have missed it when Daddy called
him 'the gayest gay elf that ever nanced down the pike' at last
Council meeting. Or maybe he just didn?t understand it; he's
awfully pretty, but not so bright.
Day Thirteen
Too, too, too bored. Perhaps will leave Rivendell in search
of adventure, or shopping.
Day Fifteen
Went all the way to the Gap of Rohan only to find there is no
Gap in Rohan. Not even a Banana Republic. False advertising!
Day Seventeen
Went to Bree. Asked Barliman if had seen Aragorn lately. Barliman
said, 'What, that pervy hobbit-fancier?' Told him he must be
thinking of other Aragorn son of Arathorn. He said, 'The Still
Not King guy, right?' Did not respond; some people don't deserve
my conversation.
Day Eighteen
Have been following Aragorn for two days now. Have never really
seen hobbits close up before. Suddenly business with curly wig
and prosthetic feet starting to make sense. V. annoyed. Slow
burn.
Day Twenty
Doesn't he ever wash his hair when I'm not around?
Day Twenty-Four
Is official. Aragorn a complete pervy hobbit-fancier. Is obviously
into little blue-eyed hobbit Frodo. Sam will kill him if he
tries anything.
Day Twenty-Five
Cornered Sam while he was out looking for herbs. Explained to
him exactly how was possible to kill human men instantly and
silently using just a fork and a rubber band. Turned him around,
gave him little push in Aragorn's direction... alas no dice.
'But we need him to protect Frooodo, scary elf lady!'
Whingy little hobbit, I've no patience at all.
Day Twenty-Six
Finally decided to take care of Aragorn myself; was about to
slit his cheating throat when was distracted by howling moans
of Ringbearer. Decided to annoy Aragorn by hobbit-napping bite-sized
hero and taking him for extended pony ride.
Little hobbit really rather adorable, blast him.
Cannot believe am getting all swoony over hobbit. Repeat to
self: 'Aloof, unavailable elf princess. Aloof, unavailable elf
princess.' Especially cannot believe am getting all swoony over
greenish-looking, half-dead hobbit.
Day Twenty-Seven
Chased by Ringwraiths. So tedious. Off to Rivendell.
Day Twenty-Nine
Well, really. Cannot even get near Ringbearer, as Sam is always
there, plus caught Aragorn sneaking around in shrubbery by hobbits?
quarters. Claimed he was looking for shard of Narsil he had
misplaced.
Day Thirty
Hobbits such a bother. Kitchen staff fussing - all out of carrots.
Bathroom staff fussing - all out of strawberry scented bath
bubbles. Legolas fussing - will not let me go to Council meeting
as then he will not be prettiest. Strain is obviously getting
to Daddy. Asked me yesterday in haggard manner whether I thought
purple suited his complexion. Told him of course not, he is
so obviously an autumn.
Day Thirty-Two
Spent all day hanging about on bridge looking pretty before
Aragorn happened along. Accused him point-blank of hobbit-fancying.
He told me that Isildur had been a pervy hobbit-fancier, and
he was just trying to build his career in a similar fashion.
Told him: 'You are Isildur's heir, not Isildur himself.' To
which he replied, 'If only you were a bit shorter, and had bigger
feet.'
Day Forty
Spent quite the night with Gimli. Those braids! That axe! I
am smitten. No more hobbits for me, it is dwarves all the way
now. Well, perhaps might just pop by one last time to watch
Sam give Frodo his bath. After all, I didn?t filch that bathroom
key out of Aragorn?s pocket for nothing.
THE VERY SECRET DIARY OF ELROND
Day 1:
Bad breakup with Isildur. As if the pervy hobbit-fancying wasn't
bad enough, he would insist on wearing tacky gold jewelry against
my advice. Confirms my suspicions that humans not just weakest
race of Middle-Earth, but also cannot accessorize worth a damn.
NB: Big battle, we won, Sauron defeated. Plundered Barad-dur
but notable lack of pretty things to take home. Sauron's decorating
tastes definitely running towards black, knobbly, tattered look.
So not me.
Day 3:
Isildur set upon by orcs and killed. Told him his poor dress
sense would attract all the wrong sorts.
Day 2,0045:
So bored in Rivendell. Have decided to hold council meeting
and name it after myself. Will invite all eligible males of
Middle-Earth who have nothing better to do on a weekend to come.
Go me!
Hope Legolas does not attend; still remember party in Second
Age where he disappeared mysteriously, along with two gallons
of my favorite strawberry bath suds, a bottle of olive oil,
and three of those tiny hobbit creatures from the Shire Isildur
was so strangely fond of.
Day 200048:
Drat. Legolas first one to RSVP to my party invitation. Wish
he would not use scented pink stationary as makes me sneeze.
Did however offer to bring game of Twister to play. Along with
disco ball I borrowed from Sauron back in First Age, should
make for quite the party.
Day 200050:
Unexpected surprise as Gandalf stopped by, apparently just to
have a whinge about big fight he had with Saruman. Tuned him
out -- do I look like an Agony Aunt? Why does everyone come
to me with problems?
Day 200051:
Gandalf does not like Twister idea and has rejected my suggestion
of a polka music theme for the Council. Instead insists we sit
around and talk about boring old fate of Middle Earth, defeat
of ultimate evil, blah blah blah. Don't see why we all have
to suffer just because Isildur couldn't give up his jewelry
habit.
Day 200059:
Gandalf made me return disco ball to Sauron. Told me to sort
out my priorities. He should talk -- he's the one who attracted
a crowd this afternoon with that pointy hat trick he likes to
do. Glorfindel so horrified by pointy hat trick he would not
stop sobbing spasmodically until was calmed by liberal application
of hobbit weed. New generation of elves such wimps.
Day 200061:
Everyone finally arrived for party -- oh wait, I mean boring-ass
Secret Council Meeting. Ponced off myself to have a sulk, and
bumped into smallest hobbit hanging about the greensward. Took
him for inanimate lawn ornament at first, but soon was furnished
with proof that he was very much alive. Says his name is Pippin.
Perhaps Isildur was onto something with all those hobbits after
all.
Day 200068:
All right, who's been using all my strawberry bath
bubbles?
Certainly wasn't Aragorn, judging by the state of *his* hair.
Day 200071:
Loud giggly splashy noises emanating from first floor bathroom.
No one can get in. Legolas practicing his nancing in the meeting
hall, Boromir hanging about the shards of Narsil, obviously
hoping Aragorn will show up, and Gandalf still breaking in new
pointy hat. Tried to have a quiet think in the garden only to
discover someone had dug up all the carrots. Is there no peace
to be had?
Day 200072:
Refused to let Arwen attend Council of Elrond, as if she does,
she will certainly notice I have borrowed her tiara.
Tiara looks better on me anyway.
Day 200075:
Council very boring. Got to say "DOOM" a few times
in v. dramatic voice but am afraid Ringbearer was not impressed
as was busy fending off advances of
Aragorn, who was making all sorts of suggestive sword comments.
He better watch it. Sam will kill him if he tries anything.
Tried to cheer self up by trying on favorite purple dress of
Arwen's, but am fairly sure someone was watching as could hear
tittering noise coming from broom closet. Do not see what is
so funny -- purple dress looks fabulous on me.
Day 200076:
Fellowship leaving tomorrow. Decided to give Pippin goodbye
tour of Rivendell. In process, purple dress got all stretched
out of shape. Hope Arwen does not notice -- she gets so grabby
about her things, and since they've closed the Gap of Rohan,
probably no way to get another dress like it.
Pippin told me purple is so my color. Go me!
THE VERY SECRET DIARY OF GIMLI - SON OF GLOIN
DAY ONE
Grr. Argh.
DAY TWO
Faffing about in Rivendell with stuck-up elves v. bad for my
digestion. Have asked Elrond to move me to second floor as cannot
get into bathroom here without being subjected to sight of hobbits
bathing amongst scented candles. Is ridiculous. Got splashed
with strawberry bath foam yesterday. On plus side, beard now
silky and conditioned.
DAY THREE
Elrond refuses to move my room. Walked in on hobbits again this
morning. What WERE they doing with that carrot? Inbred bunch
of halfwits, no wonder they can't even grow decent beards.
DAY SEVEN
Suspect Aragorn son of Arathorn of being pervy hobbit-fancier.
Completely ignoring hottie elf fianc?e in favor of barging about
with hairy-footed gnomes in leather breeches. Fortunately I,
Gimli son of Gloin, am here to take care of her loneliness.
Later.
Elf women just the right height to keep my ears warm. Go me!
DAY NINE
Have agreed to go on Quest. Arwen getting awfully grabby. Gimli
son of Gloin will not be tied down. Would rather spend time
with touchy-feely hobbits and poncy elves than hang about Rivendell
taking about ?our relationship.?
DAY THIRTEEN
V. cold on top of Caradhras. Big fight over who got to carry
hobbits up the mountain. Did not participate as was busy showing
Legolas how to get hair braided just right. Fight ended when
Aragorn picked up Ringbearer and stuffed him in his trousers.
That?s right, Isildur?s Heir. Suffocate the Ringbearer. Honestly,
these people.
DAY FOURTEEN
In Mines of Moria. May have made slight miscalculation, as it
seems that cousin Balin has been dead for at least sixty years.
Suppose it should have occurred to me that has been a while
since last got Christmas card from the Moria folks. Still, cannot
be expected to keep track of everything.
DAY FIFTEEN
Gandalf fell into shadow. Hobbits used as excuse to have teary
cuddlefest on rocks. Suffered manly embrace from Boromir, although
he kept jabbing Horn of Gondor into my solar plexus. At least,
hope that was the Horn of Gondor. Does not bear thinking about
if not.
DAY SIXTEEN
Legolas told me Aragorn is way into Frodo. Sam will kill him
if he tries anything. Suggested to Legolas that we might want
a leader who is less of a lech. Legolas then asked if I wanted
to take a bath with him. Beginning to suspect that all that
Elvish poetry about the glory of warrior-bonds between men just
big cover-up for illicit spanking games.
DAY TWENTY
In Lothlorien. Galadriel quite the babe. While hobbits off power
cuddling and Boromir chasing Aragorn, had time to show her a
few dwarf tricks. Nothing fancy, just a bit of Hide the Helmet
and Delving In The Mines. V. satisfactory for everyone, except
possibly Celeborn. On second thought, maybe that was Celeborn.
Cannot much tell difference with elves.
DAY TWENTY-TWO
Left Lothlorien. Have been paddling in boats for days. Am getting
v. lonely. Hobbits looking not so bad. Rather cute in fact,
despite mullet haircuts. Cannot get near Frodo without getting
bitten on kneecaps by Sam, and Pippin dating Boromir, so will
see if perhaps Merry wants to take a nice moonlit stroll tonight.
Hurrah for warrior-bonds between men.
THE SECRET DIARY OF LEGOLAS, SON OF WEENUS Part 1
Day One:
Went to Council of Elrond. Was prettiest person there. Agreed
to follow some tiny little man to Mordor to throw ring into
volcano.
Very important mission - gold ring so tacky.
Day Four:
Boromir so irritating. Why must he wear big shield like dinner
plate all the time? Climbed up Caradhras but wimpy human who
cannot walk on snow insisted we climb back down.
Am definitely prettiest member of the Fellowship.
Go me!
Day Six:
Far too dark in Mines of Moria to brush hair properly. Am very
afraid I am developing a tangle.
Orcs so silly.
Still the prettiest.
Day Ten:
Gandalf fell into shadow. In other news, I think I am developing
a spot on my nose. V. serious situation, as Elven spots likely
to last for 500 years or more.
Still prettiest, despite blasted spot.
Day Eleven:
In Lothlorien. Suspect Galadriel may be prettier than me.
Also, am quite sure she copied my hairstyle. I was wearing that
same look at least 1,000 years ago. Silly bint. She was most
annoyed that I used her mirrored fountain to take a nice bubble
bath.
I choose to ignore her claim that my hair clogged her drain.
Not one strand of my hair has fallen out in 800 years, why would
it start now?
Still prettiest by far.
Day 30:
All this paddling about in boats is hell on my complexion.
Aragorn obviously starting to find Frodo strangely attractive.
Sam will kill him if he tries anything.
Still the prettiest.
Day 33 :
Boromir tempted by Ring. So tedious. Cannot be tempted myself,
as already have everything I want i.e. perfect hair and a butt
like granite.
Have been getting very strange letters from someone calling
herself "Stacey" who wants to do obscene things to
my elfhood. Fortunately have super-duper elf vision so can run
away if I see her coming.
Day 35:
Boromir dead. Very messy death, most unnecessary.
Did get kissed by Aragorn as he expired. Does a guy have to
get shot full of arrows around here to get any action? Boromir
definitely not prettier than me.
Cannot understand it.
Am feeling a pout coming on.
Frodo off to Mordor with Sam. Tiny little men caring about each
other, rather cute really.
Am quite sure Gimli fancies me. So unfair. He is waist height,
so can see advantages there, but chunky braids and big helmet
most offputting.
Forsee dark times ahead, very dark times.
THE SECRET DIARY OF LEGOLAS Part 2
Day One:
Whee!
Day Two:
I like to run!
Day Three:
I look good when I run!
Day Four:
I also look good standing still. Running across Riddermark v.
good excercise. I swear my butt has just gotten firmer. Is that
even possible?
Day Six:
Is Gimli staring at my butt?
Day Seven:
No wonder he's always lagging behind.
Day Eight:
Unnerving moment when bumped into Eomer. Thought he might be
prettier than me until he took off helmet. Fortunately he looks
like an aardvark. He hit on Gimli but I warned him right off.
Nobody tries it on with my dwarf.
Am still the prettiest.
Day Nine:
Pile of dead and smoking Orc corpses so not pretty. Aragorn
showed off and went on and on regarding hobbits laying about
tied up. Do not know why he thinks kinky hobbit games so important.
Still prettiest.
Day Ten:
Bother! Fangorn Forest. Leaf mold terrible for my complexion.
Still prettiest but a bit on clammy, unwashed side.
Day Eleven:
Bumped into Gandalf who is all sparkly white now. Asked him,
"Who do you have to blow to get last bottle of bleach in
Middle Earth anyway?" Gandalf said, "The Balrog."
So not worth it.
Am rethinking, though. Roots are showing.
Still prettiest although at this rate for how long?
Day Twelve:
Asked Gandalf for Balrog's number. Gandalf said I couldn't call
him. I told him not to be jealous and posessive. He said he
wasn't, it was just that he killed Balrog last week.
Note to self: never date Gandalf.
Day Fifteen:
Arrived in Edoras. V. upset. Suspect Eowyn may be prettier than
me. Most unexpected as always thought shield-maidens were more
hefty, pear-shaped types.
Not the prettiest! V. bitter.
Day Nineteen:
Aragorn stood up to Theoden today. Aragorn so butch. Have goosebumps.
Day Twenty:
Poke bonnet absolutely hideous. No longer even remotely pretty.
Considering suicide.
Day Twenty-seven:
Exeunt Aragorn, pursued by wolves of Isengard. On con side:
Am stuck with ugly necklace. On pro side: No longer have to
wear poke bonnet. Am pretty again!
Day Twenty-nine:
Aragorn back. Apparently taking header off cliff not as deadly
as one would have thought. Told him to throw me down and shag
me senseless, but he just clapped me on the shoulder in a manly
fashion and said, "Yeah, it can get a little chapped sometimes
but just put some lotion on it."
Aragorn just kind of a wanker, really.
Day Twenty-Nine:
Battle of Helm's Deep so embarassing. If was not bad enough
to face thought of death at the hands of smelly Orcs in backwater
rural province, have now been saved at zero hour by Haldir showing
up with really bad weave.
On plus side, Eowyn stuck in rancid cave. Perhaps will develop
cave blight. Then I will be prettiest forever.
Day Thirty:
Battle over. Gandalf always fashionably late it seems. Hopes
for after-battle quickie dashed because Aragorn sulking over
postcard from Faramir. Is jealous over Ringbearer. Told him
Sam will kill Faramir if he tries anything but Aragorn not cheered
up.
Sod him. Have received suggestive note from Eomer. Will go see
if what they say about men of Riddermark is actually true.
No one has bothered to get Eowyn out of cave yet. Still the
prettiest by far.
