How to persuade the rest of the Company to dress as Christmas elves

[origoogles]

Um…. why?

[bifurgoogles]

you are never going to make me wear bells!!

[kiligoogles]

I mean, I’d probably look cute but. Well….actually…

Show me the designs first.

[origoogles]

I agree with Kili. I’m not wearing curly shoes or suspenders

[balingoogles]

Because @thranduilgoogles insists I am to be Santa this year. Which I am fine with. However I need the remainder of my cohort. You get to work out your own designs. Also if any toys or objects could be created for Santa purposes, I'd be very grateful. You'd all look fantastic as Elves though. Not the tall versions.

Imagine finding this in your basement.

[yurotrash-deactivated20201212]

Is this out of lord or the rings

[fassbender-mcavoyobsessed]

You found Kazahadum, that is the tomb of Balin son of Fundin. The skeleton is of Ori of the family Ri. Get out while you still can! There is a Balrog down there!! A fire demon of the old world!! Can you not hear the drums in the deep?! Get out!!!

[origoogles]

Apparently @balingoogles and I have been living in someone’s basement.

[balingoogles]

Why was THIS dwarf door so easy to find? Which horrendous dwarf made this useless hidden entrance?

[origoogles]

((Did everyone just…. Leave or something? Half the dwarves haven’t posted in what feels like at least a week if not more… Like, are they really busy with school or did they leave? I hope they’re still with us…))

[sigridgoogles-deactivated201608]

((I can’t answer for anyone else, but I’m barely hanging on. I’m almost always on, because I’m tumblr trash. But there’s no one to interact with and I’ve run out of things to google. I was hoping @filigoogles would make an appearance last night, but only posted once.)) 

[galadrielgoogles]

(( I’m pretty busy b/c school, and-I’m embarrassed to say this- I’m too shy to respond/can’t think of a clever response/ don’t think my reply is good enough. I also just started a Galadriel rp blog, which I’m trying to get up and running. If anyone wants to do something, feel free to ask me, because if I ask, I’ll think I’m being a bother. I’m also almost always on!))

[kiligoogles]

((Hey! Breaking my hiatus to say that a lot of us are in college and for a lot of colleges this is dead week. Aka the week before finals where you dont have class but you frantically study in the hopes that you dont fail the tests. Or at least this is true in the US. Wait a week or two before giving up on this RP, I’m sure more people, like myself, will be back after finals hell is over. That plus timezones and you gotta be a little bit patient for a bit, I’m sure we’ll all be back. In the meantime I know that a bunch of elves are still online and I’m sure they’d be down for an RP))

[galadrielgoogles]

((Maybe we all should clarify what time zone we’re in…?))

[grimagoogles]

((I’m in community college right now so it’s not as bad but I’m still studying a ton so yeah this week is mildly dead for me)) (( @galadrielgoogles good idea. I’m on est))

[origoogles]

((I’m EST as well I believe. Whatever the hell Ontario Canada is. I also work 3-11, Sunday to Thursday, so.))

[thoringoogles]

((yeah studies here as well))

[freringoogles]

((EST over here [dis and frerin], which is the one for most of Ontario and Quebec. but yeah, busy with studying and prepping for flight simulator evals >.> i’m going home in a week though, and i might be able to catch up on google stuff in the next couple of days))

[kiligoogles]

((As far as time zones go I’m in CST, for when I come back))

[clodiasbird]

(Im having an hard time at school too, but I will try to be there at least once a day if anyone wants to do something (thought maybe not much next week). Passed this period, Im ready for everything. Also I dont EXACTLY know my timezone, but I live in Italy???? Whatever that means in timezone talk lol sorry)

[sigridgoogles-deactivated201608]

((I’m in EST, along with a few others. Here is a link I’ve found to be helpful. http://www.timeanddate.com/time/map/ there are links at the bottom for a world clock and a time zone converter.))

[kiligoogles]

((that’s really the best time zone thing I can find as well. Like @theeaglesgoogle said on a different reblog of this, it’s unlikely that we will all be on at the same time but my suggestion is that you contact the people you interact with the most/most want to RP through a PM and ask them their time zones and see when would be a convenient time for both of you to be on at the same time. Like say it’s 7AM where you are and 3AM where your partner is and you’re willing to wake up a little early for some quality RP time and that’s their free period from work where they can be online or whatever. That’s just an example but that’s what I’m talking about. A good RP takes a little talking things over outside of the RP situation as well,usually. Also remember that we all started this beautiful crack RP independently of each other and it might take a little to work stuff out together.))

[balingoogles]

Sincerest apologies. PST - and if I'm not studying I am sleeping. Won't be long before festive Balin returns.
