This will probably be a lean fellowship - but a true one, I'm sure. Who else out there loves Dwarves - and really loves it when Dwarves and Elves get together? I'm calling this the Legolas/Gimli Club, but I'd be interested to hear from other Elf/Dwarf variation followers; they probably like L/G as well.

I'm guessing you are all members of Axe and Bow (the yahoo group and the livejournal group are the ones I know of)? Are there any other such sites on the web?

:cheers: for :gimli: / :legolas: !!

Well...
I'm not THAT much into elves and dwarfs-the Shire stole my heart long ago :biglove: -but I do really think that as you read the book Gimli and Legolas are supposed to be together...
I mean-they go to the undieing lands together!
So I join the club! :wine:

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD- NOOOOOOOOO!

(scrubs herself with salt)

WHY?

Thank you, Indy Baggins! Outside support is always appreciated! (Note to self: Must Join Hobbit fanclub. :) )

I don't expect everyone to understand, Elf Molester, but I will not go unheard! (Note to self: Find tasteful, but GRAPHIC, manips of Legolas/Gimli - to display for the uninitiated. :devil: )

::enthusiastically joins::

WOO! Yes! I was tihnking about starting this club myself, actually.

Legolas/Gimli so perfect for eachother. Yes yes yes.

Yay! A true disciple! :faint: *recovers* Welcome Hampster!

Can I join?? Please!!!!!*puppy dog eyes*
I love Legolas/Gimli slash and can never see enough of it. :D

Yay for :legolas: :doggystyle: :gimli:

:yummy:

Yes, Findulas, climb aboard!

Woot! We've already surpassed my expectations! (Note to self: Time to start baking Legolas and Gimli cookies to hand out to new members. :lick: )

MmmMMmmMMmm..

Which should I eat first? The pretty elf? Or the yummy dwarf?

Decisions, decisions.. Why does life have to be so hard? ::sniff::

To make your life easier (or not):

The Legolas Cookies are either chocolate or vanilla flavored (meaning I have some of each variety).
The Gimli Cookies are either peanut butter or caramel flavored (ditto, from above).

*stresses for a moment that maybe none of these flavors would be known in Middle-earth*
*remembers the arguments for and against potatoes and decides 'who cares anyway?'*

Mix and Match for your favorite blend of delicious Elf and/or Dwarf goodness!

:legolas: :gimli: :legolas: :gimli: :legolas: :gimli:

Got Milk? :devil: How about a protein shake instead...

:suck: Oh, OK - we'll save that one for the guys... :P

Hey fellow wierdo's! :P

Have you guys any good fics to recomend?
I actually like the Legolas/Gimli m-pregs :blush:

Legolas/Gimli rocks my socks so much. I'm so happy to see so many people who feel the same way!

L/G: So obviously cannon :P :makeout:

Welcome Zatanna! Have a cookie - or three. Join the party!

Yah know, Indy, I've been a fan of Tolkien forever, but I've only been into the on-line fandom for a few months. I'm afraid all of my suggestions will be old news to you :blush: - but I'll definitely tell you my favorites so far....

They Say of Elves By Brancher (1 Chapter)
http://www.henneth-annun.net/stories/chapt...433&SPOrdinal=1

Raven's Song By Camilla Sandman (19 Chapters)
http://www.henneth-annun.net/stories/chapt...165&SPOrdinal=1

Beyond This World By Thundera Tiger (3 Chapters)
http://www.fanfiction.net/s/516147/1/

These are dear to my heart. All three make me sob uncontrollably. In my experience, the first, by Brancher, is regarded as the very best of L/G fanfiction (and it barely has them holding hands).


Anything listed as L/G... By Theresa Green
http://www.fanfiction.net/u/416464/

Scenes from the Undying Lands By Arachne
http://axebow.hakaze.com/fic/fic-arachne-scenes1.htm

These are hilarious. Theresa Green is more sexually graphic than Arachne - but ff.net is fairly tame overall.

For Mortal Stakes By Maia
http://axebow.hakaze.com/fic/fic-gwindor-mortal.htm

So You've Touched Your Best Friend... By Moirai
http://axebow.hakaze.com/fic/fic-moirai-friend.htm

The only two L/G mpregs I have actually read! The first doesn't even qualify as an mpreg :blink: (Gimli is female!), I list it for the bizarre fact that Legolas and 'Gimli' give birth to Hobbits! (- which I figured you would either like or be horrified by.) For the second one, Gimli is male (and the Mommy!) but their children end up being, well.... it's equally bizarre :blink: (and played for humor this time).

The Library of Moria Legolas/Gimli Index
http://www.libraryofmoria.com/legolasgimli/index.html

Axe and Bow: The Fanfic Archive
http://axebow.hakaze.com/fic.htm

These are the two 'big' archives that I am aware of (the Axe/Bow site has another mpreg listed, in fact hobbits are listed as a big part of the story, but it has lots and lots and lots of chapters - I haven't read it yet).


Well, I hope one or two bits were new to you! Enjoy! :D

Whieeeee!
*Runs of reading all those great fics venusinchains recomended* :P

mmm... I am pretty openminded, so I am going to say-with the risk of getting some hobbit-lovers on my back here- why not? :D

:smooch: thank you! I'll post my favorites here too-just have to look for them euch... a lot. Am not very organised :P

Theresa Green is one of my favourite L/G authors, it was actually her stories that were the first L/G stories I read.

L/G making the lovely hobbits, there is a thought I don't mind. :P It's not actually that bad.


I'll post my favourites in here, it'll take a while to list them all.

c'mon, keep it alive folks!

oi, as mates: yes but I don't think dwarves are... um sexy...

that's just cuz you don't think about 'em the right way.

ooh la la!

Hey! People have posted here! :biglove:

I don't exactly have permission for it yet (so it may disappear soon) but if you check out my new avatar, pheradariel, maybe you'll agree Gimli can be kinda cute...? :nod:

And (as a cheap trick to drum up some more posts) since I've volunteered to write for the latest challenge (and you know I'm gonna write L/G!), what's a good 'Kink' that hasn't been done for these two? I know I've seen 'bondage' fic a time or two, and the 'ear fetish' / 'beard fetish' thing has been done to death. So what's left? Any preferences? *goes to look up 'kinks' on Minotaur's Slash Site* :read:

he's cute on the avatar. and he's humorous in the movie :D but again, i prefer Elves and men (and an occasional hobbit)

That's more than enough to make me very happy! (Yeah, I'm simple that way.) And I also like Men, Elves and Hobbits. (Can't say 'no' to almost anybody.)

KINK UPDATE:

Minotaur differentiates between 'S&M' and 'Bondage.' Hmmmm...

'Scat!' *runs screaming*

'Spanking?'... 'Three+somes?'.... 'Toys?'..... 'Porn?' (*Tries to imagine Middle Earth Porn* lol)

Ooooo, here's an interesting one: Foreskin and Docking. There's a discussion post for this one somewhere else on the board. It would make for a very graphic fic, though. What d'yah think?

I just got this idea---

Gimli has a feet fetish! But he's extremely embarassed about it. Hard to hide when Gimli sees Leggie's feet. [which are, of course, gorgeous, lol] Gimli tries to hide it and such, but finally Legolas pulls it out of him and is not disgusted and/or extremely amused like Gimli had thought he'd be, but is instead.. ooh! Leggie could have a foot fetish too! Ahahaha!

LOL.

Feet, huh? Hmmmm....

I've read somewhere (can't remember where, of course) that most homosexual men (and Elves and Dwarves?) have some kind of foot fetish. It's probably complete horse shit, but it might make for an interesting fic...

'Course, I still like the 'docking' thing. I suppose they don't have to be restricted to just one kink, but this could turn into a very long story... lol.

personally, it grosses me out, but.. ::shrugs::

That's why they call it a kink! :whip:
(I assume you were talking about 'docking' - It being the more graphic kink.)

I must consider this... (I don't want to scare off one of the only two (or three?) potential readers I have here!)

*wanders off to get some aspirin* :lurk:

Hey, now! Did I say I wouldn't read it? I'll try anything once. ;)

Ahh, very good! But no matter now, I think I've found a Foot Fetish Bunny. :devil: The story may even wind up being kinda sweet. :angel:

I might eventually write that graphic fic :suck: , but it can wait till I have more time. This challenge fic will probably be a week late as it is ('cause I'm going on vacation, for a week, in just a couple of days).

I love Legolas/Gimli! Theresa Green's "Advice" stories at HASA got me hooked. :smitten:

I made the mistake of reading that one while at work, and nearly hurt myself trying not to laugh too loudly. :laugh:

A foot fetish, eh? That could be cute. :smooch:

aw, you're gonna use my bunny, venus? Heehee that's so nice. :) I honestly can't wait to read it! Post it when you're done? [or will it be posted automatically somewhere else for the challence? Er I am clueless..]

I support Legolas and Gimli. Love them together.

I want to join! I can't believe I didn't notice this club before. :blush:
As for story recs, how about Magic Rat?

I go away for a week and the Legolas/Gimli 'shippers come out of the woodwork!
:wine: :wine: :wine:
A Warm Welcome to Brigantine, Robinscat and Tant! (I knew there had to be a few more of you out there - otherwise Legolas/Gimli wouldn't be neck 'n' neck with Legolas/Aragorn in the "Who should Legolas be with?" Poll.) :biglove:

I'm glad you suggested it, Hampster. :smooch: I just hope I can get it done by the new deadline. (Others pestered Azzy to move back the due date - so now mine won't technically be late. :) ) And I'll have to get around to reading the Challenge regulations myself - I don't know if I'm allowed to post my story just anywhere after the deadline or if there's somewhere in particular Azzy plans to put all the Challenge fics. :blink:

But, for now.... *wanders off to read Tant's recommendations* :lurk:

hey venus, how's the fic going?

[btw, if you need a beta, can I be it? LOL I promise I'd do a good job. I get 100's in English class]

Ooh! Count me in!!! L/G is a canon pairing surpassed only by F/S, I swear...
Dwarves are so totally cuddly fuzzballs once the armour's off..teehee.

Welcome Connor! :wine:
Yah know, I don't know why more people don't see it that way. I'm sure Legolas does...

All done and turned in, Hampster! I'm still not sure if I'm allowed to post it elsewhere - but I'm sure Azzy'll have them all up for voting in the next few days.

I didn't get it out to my beta (dinenglamor, of this forum) before turning it in - she has it now, but all my mistakes will be 'out there' for all to see for the vote. :unsure: (You might take one look and run screaming.)

okie dokie :)

Well, you seem to have pretty good grammar on the forums, so it can't be that bad. ;)

Can't wait to read it! Where would she post it?

I'm pretty sure all the Challenge fics (or at least a link to them) will be put in a new topic in the Important Forum News forum.

Thank you for the vote of confidence :smooch: , but Dinenglamor sent my fic back (in no time!) and, as expected, she had to correct a bit of my punctuation. Looking back over my mistakes, it seems like I wrote out the sentences, then went back to all the places where a 'pause' would be and whipped out my 'random punctuation generator' to make my decisions! :blink:

Ah, well. Now to see if I can replace my faulty version...

Hey! The fics are up (in the Important Forum News forum)!

I have to say, I feel a bit outclassed. Not just quality-wise either - mine is the only 'R' in a crowd of 'NC-17's. :P

The formatting on mine turned out a bit wierd. But, since Azzy allows the fics to be posted elsewhere, all you L/G lovers can go to my vanima_ephel lj to view an 'easy to read' version. (Please excuse my lame headings.)

It's a short and sappy tale (foot fetish and all), and falls somewhere between Book!verse and Movie!verse, I think.

Thanks for reading!

oh man that is just the awesomest thing ;D

Thank you Hampster! :biglove:
