he threatened to-if his bare feet had to touch the cold floor (because I had to remove his rug to be laundered after he tried to paint a design on it)- suffice to pee in his bed.

To perpetrate our father’s attitudes gives weight to some peoples’ feelings that our family is impetuous and selfish;

I do not think these words mean what you think they mean.

Findekano inhabits barely a sliver of my king-sized bed

So Aman has American bed sizes? Or is it the size of an actual king?

Angsty-teenager!Maglor! *loves*

I knew from the beginning that the guest was Rúmil. I think it was your little chibific about Carnistir interacting with him and his opinions of him being misunderstood that sealed it for me.

Dude, now I've got mental images of Feanor being something like an SCA geek, except that he prefers to fuse the old crafts with modern technology than to recreate period items and materials exactly.

"Perpetrate" is supposed to be "perpetuate." I do that a lot; type the wrong word but type in its place a real, similar-sounding word that the spell check doesn't catch. Thanks for the good eye. :)

(Now laughs at perpetratin' Elves.)

As for "suffice," the meaning I have says to "meet present needs or requirements," which seems (to me) to fit the context in which it was used. If Nelyo doesn't take Carni to the loo, the bed will meet his requirements as a proper voiding place. I've heard it used in this fashion many times, so unless it's just a local misspeak, then I don't see how it is incorrect.

I don't know of another way to convey it. (?)

*shakes head*

Feanor(pout): I am not a geek!

Me: Honey, face it. You are. A drop-dead gorgeous, brilliant, fascinating... *rants for 15 minutes*... amazing Elf. But you're still a geek.

Feanor: Well, if I'm a geek, and you are obsessed with me like me so much, than you must be a geek, too.

Me: Duh! Genius...

...DUDE. Trekkie!Feanor. Dammit, now I'm going to be giggling for the rest of the day.

As for the bed, Greek beds come in "single" and "double", for example. Or perhaps Maglor's bed is simply "huge"?

Feanor and Melkor...I'd say "I think I read a slashfic like that once", but I think that if I ever found one, I ran away screaming.

And Carnistir isn't doing the sufficing, the bed is. You have him as the subject of that sentence, which is why it's off.

Hee! I was thinking about this on the way home (as proof of what a geek I am) and decided that I think he's more of a Games Workshop nerd. After all, GW requires an interesting blend of artistic skill and bloodthirst for battle. And the not-so-nice-smelling nerds are very protective of their models. I was informed on one occasion that a guy "hated me" because I painted better than he did.

The only conundrum is that Feanor is hott and I've yet to meet a GW nerd who was hott. I think there's probably many more hott Trekkies than GW nerds.

Or perhaps Maglor's bed is simply "huge"?

My silly mind at the time was hung up on "ginormous." Which...no. :^P

Feanor and Melkor...I'd say "I think I read a slashfic like that once", but I think that if I ever found one, I ran away screaming.

*ahem* I have. *is depraved and admits it* But it was pretty awful. I read it out of sheer "OMG!" curiosity, I admit.

And Carnistir isn't doing the sufficing, the bed is ( ... )

lmao! Well for starters, such a luxirious bed would be excellent for plenty rolling around with entangled bodies a pillow fight... ;c)

I was a bit surprised at all the guesses that the guest was Melkor considering that it's no secret that Feanor and Melkor were enemies from Day One. I know I tend to bend canon at times...but Melkor? *shudders*

My excuse for coming up with this guess is that I'm plain ol' evol and a canon-twister in any way possible (and impossible). But, yea, I guess it's a little surprising.

Yeah, I expected a few "Melkors" but not at the alarming volume at which they came! And I was afraid that I was being too transparent!

I almost held a contest...but I thought, "Too many winners, too little time." I still owe Levade her story from the last contest I held!
