That PM was a delight that has greatly improved my day, and inspired me to get my word processor into gear on the next chapter, so thank you :P I imagine we do disagree about setting assumptions but also Feanorians are not reliable narrators and might be mistaken about the halls of Mandos and various other things.

Fair point on Fëanorian reliability as narrators (and a certain other person discussing it is dramatically less reliable).
I am glad you enjoyed the PM. And, uh, given the word processor I currently have open...

Hey lintamande do you expect to be around enough to want a moiety color?

@teceler Yeah a bunch of people had the same reaction to my Sauron in
http://lintamande.tumblr.com/post/10813 ... n-and-well., I started tagging things "opinions of Sauron not necessarily opinions of the author"and it is a good disclaimer.
@moriwen Thank you! Kappa was the one who thought that this would be an interesting cultural exchange and I am delighted by the results.
@ Adelene, yeah, probably. How does that work?

Moiety means "one of two parts into which a thing can be divided". So originally one was mine and one was kappa's and they had colors for easy adjectiving.
...It's exploded since then. Pick your favorite really obscure color.

Uh, sure, I'll be FF0000, which is usually called Red but it looks like that's taken.

the Silmarils which are the only way we can endure as the sort of beings we are permanently outside Valinor
Can you explain what you mean by this? Not sure if it's Tolkien canon or not...
