First, I love Peter's voice mail message. It sounds so ungodly Peter that I laughed out loud.
Secondly, what's up with Elijah's typing? (That is Elijah, right? I'm not as up on the RPS canon as y'all are). I'm not complaining at all, mind you, but I'm dying to know. After all, Craig's and Orli's typing were both error free. So what's different about Elijah that makes him more careless? Is it just that it's early in the morning and he's on set and people are gluing things to his feet and he's standing up typing away on a Blackberry or something (can one IM on those?)? Or is he drunk?
Sorry, you were up until five, you don't deserve me hammering away at you with relentless questions about backstory that's probably not necessary for the mainstory. I have a nasty habit of doing that. Don't mind me, I'll just wander off into the corner and not pester you too much, because, well, you gave me fun fic.
Loved Dave's entry (okay, that sounded really much dirtier than it was meant to). Mostly because I still love his tone. He still has those lovely tangents in the midst of stuff. And while I feel sort of bad that Viggo interrupted him and Mir, in a way, it just seems a "turnabout is fair play" moment. Given how much Dave and Mir have seen of Sean and Viggo (and the fabricated Viggo and Harry), it somehow seems appropritate that Viggo should walk in just then. Evens the karmic playing field or some such.
At any rate, enjoyed this. As I said, this along with another WIP a friend is posting are the two things I most look forward to each morning.

Secondly, what's up with Elijah's typing? Oh, that's Dom, actually. And I have learned from this particular experiment that he's got to be the hardest one to emulate in terms of tone, partially because there are samples of chats with him online, and partially because he has the worst typing skills I've ever seen. I think he does it on purpose, because if I recall correctly, he has some University-level English training. Random capitals, terrible punctuation, words that run together. He seems to type too fast and never hit the backspace key. It's horrible. I've tried to get it down right here, but I'd venture to say I've probably erred on the side of coherence.
Sorry, you were up until five, you don't deserve me hammering away at you with relentless questions about backstory that's probably not necessary for the mainstory. *G* I'm actually having troubles getting back to sleep anyway, so no worries.
Glad you're still finding it entertaining. (And I still love Dave too, in spite of my threats this morning.) Thanks again!
I'm a twit. Apologies. I swear I thought the nickname went with Elijah. Gah. Hate being behind in a fandom.

That makes for an interesting character, eh? I'd love to know what that's about. But you needn't answer now. I'm just saying, the curious part of me wants to know. Not that you have to--I give up. I'll just trust you to understand what I mean. Still haven't had breakfast, and just got a phone call from a friend who is in town--haven't seen them in years, and they're going to be literally down the street from me today, so, have had whole plan for day thrown off.
No worries. After all, that chat format is a bit hard to read. If I remember correctly, Lij's nickname among the cast was Lighe.
That makes for an interesting character, eh? I'd love to know what that's about. So would I. I spend very little time in the Hobbit end of the fandom, but from what I've seen/read/heard, Dom's a bit of a wild card, and difficult to control as a result. Not that he's difficult to work with, more that he has a tendency to run off at the mouth and say whatever comes into his head. I'd venture to say that the bad typing stems from this "carefree" (for lack of a better term) attitude. That's my shallow, before-noon analysis anyway. ^_~
just got a phone call from a friend who is in town--haven't seen them in years That sounds great. Hope it doesn't throw today's plan into too much turmoil, and I hope you enjoy yourself.
