You're very welcome Itarilde! It makes me happy that they made you happy!
~T.T

That one of Lij is nice. (*is thankful to be forgiven for going on camping trip* ) Btw, if you're--wait a minute *stares at apostrophe * You see, just now i couldn't use them, because instead of this ' appearing, something called "Find" would come up at the bottom of the page, so...it's nice to have them back. I missed you, apostrophes! *huggles* lol!
Anyway...I think i'd have to say that the last one of Frodo is my favorite. That smile... *melts* As to the funny one, like Itarilde said it's good to laugh. [s]What?!? Only a one dollar bill for our beloved Frodo...?[/s]
Btw, as founder of this club i hereby grant you (and everyone else) full permission to post anything having to do with either Lij or Frodo, even when we're mainly focusing on one in particular. So please feel free to go ahead and tell us that banner idea, if you want to. (I'm kind of curious, lol. Please? )

Thank you for the amazing pictures. They are from one of my favourite scenes and I loved all of them, but this one was my favourite. Look how beautiful he is! *swoons*


I wrote a poem. It's not nearly as good as Eariel's, but I thought I'd post it, though.


Why I Love You


Because of your smile
that could melt stone like ice
Because of the light of your soul
that shines through your eyes
like a fire you cannot hide
Because of your courage
that made you leave your home
to save the world and all you loved
Because of every step you made
through rock and dust and fire
Because of your will to go on
despite all the suffering and pain
Because of the mistakes you made
so I can feel related to you
Because of the deep desire I feel
to follow you to the land where you now dwell
Because of everything you did
Because of everything you are
Because you are my hero
I will always love you
Frodo

We've been forever

We have come full circle.

Forever:*Applauds* Lovely Forever! Another beautiful poem for a beautiful soul. He seems to inspire some greatness in everyone.
You're welcome,btw, for the pictures. That's one of my favorite scenes as well. I'm glad you liked them!
Eariel: I'm glad you can use apostrophes again! Hooray! I know, only one dollar? But we all know he's worth way more than any money.
Thank you for the permission to post things that are sort of but not really related to the exact topic at the time. Since you are so curious, I will post my idea for banner text, in all it's mediocrity. But don't laugh everyone!
It all started when I was singing the alphabet. I don't know why I was singing the alphabet. And for the first time, singing the alphabet, I realized that letter "E" and letter "F" were next to each other in the alphabet. and I thought "E......... Elijah. F........... Frodo." And then the idea came, "There's a reason E and F are together in the alphabet....... Elijah/Frodo." And then of course I thought of this club and all my wonderufl friends in it who will never ever laugh at me no matter how many stupid things I pull out. So there you go.

I'm trying to include something Frodo in all of my posts, since it's his birthday celebration. Since I'm not a brilliant poet like either of you, or a brilliant graphics maker, all I've got is pictures. So here are some more.
http://www.theargonath.cc/characters/fr ... herbs1.jpg <look familiar? We've talked about this scene before.
Here are a series of them. Just seeing them makes me cry.
http://www.theargonath.cc/characters/fr ... rroad2.jpg
http://www.theargonath.cc/characters/fr ... rroad3.jpg
http://www.theargonath.cc/characters/fr ... rroad4.jpg
http://www.theargonath.cc/characters/fr ... rroad5.jpg
And here are two more I thought were stunning.
http://www.theargonath.cc/characters/fr ... road17.jpg
http://www.theargonath.cc/characters/fr ... road20.jpg
Hope you guys like these ones! By the way, if you guys like any of these, I'm sure you can use them for your graphics or anythig else. Just so you know. And do tell me which one(s) you like best! I'm curious!
Ta!
~T.T

EDIT: Guess who just discovered Forever's site? You do absolutely amazing work. I hope you don't mind that I stole one of the avvies? If you do mind, I promise I'll change it. But I thought I needed.. a change. I was going to take a banner too, but I didn't want to be greedy. Once again, let us know if you decide to open up a claim! <3

I started sniffling while looking at them, lol, and then the last one was like a warm ray of sunshine. I do like your idea, btw. I think i might try it out, when i get back (though i certainly don't mind if you do as well, Forever. )
Speaking of Forever and her beautiful poem, to quote TT about my own, "I loved loved loved it." Yep. Very well done. "Another beautiful poem for a beautiful soul." I like that, TT. It fits.
Well, i don't have much more time, so i guess i have to end. *sniff* I'll miss you! Don't get too far ahead in pages, lol. Now it's my own turn to be like Frodo, like Forever was a few weeks ago...but don't be too sad--i'll be back soon.
Namarie sin, nildenyar! Farewell for now, my friends!

Aww. Thank you Eariel. You're so nice! I really will miss you. *sniffles along witrh Eariel*
I am glad you liked my idea/are a good liar. I can't wait to see it put into action.
Some more Frodo pictures, to brighten up our day since we're all going to be sad because Eariel's leaving.
http://www.theargonath.cc/characters/fr ... allen4.jpg <look. Even Frodo looks sad because you're leaving!
http://www.theargonath.cc/characters/fr ... allen7.jpg <but look again. There is still hope. We will meet again.

How about one more?:
http://www.theargonath.cc/characters/fr ... rests3.jpg

There. I hope you guys are all enjoying seeing these pictures as much as I'm enjoying finding them/ looking at them.

Another thing I want to do. There are so many good Frodo quotes. I think I shall post from time to time throughout the celebration. Now, which one to use?......................
My Frodo quote of the day: Frodo: "I will take the Ring to Mordor. Though — I do not know the way."

This quote always affects me some what. It shows the lengths Frodo will go too to save those he loves. At this point, it's not as though he doesn't know the dangers of taking the Ring. He has already gottne it as far as Rivendell and nearly died along the way. He knows the road to Mordor will be even more dangerous. Yet he volunteers to take the Ring anyway. Frodo. He's so brave.

~T.T

Aw. *sniffs* Bye Eariel! *double hugs* We'll miss you! Have fun at Yosemite!!!

TT~I'm glad you liked my work! I don't mind at all if you use the avvie. And you can use anything else from my site as well! Just take the banner(s) you want - I'd be very happy about it



Amazing banner idea. I think I'll try it out when I have time again for graphics, but it doesn't look promising for the next time. Gah. I hate school.

And I totally adored all the pictures, especially those from the end of FotR - Frodo standing at the river banks of Anduin. Tis one of my favourite movie scenes of all time, the whole sequence. Don't ask me how much I already cried because of that scene. *runs off to watch it again*

Frodo quotes? Here I am!! Nice idea.
I know what you would say. And it would seem like wisdom but for the warning in my heart.


I luv this one! He's terribly afraid and yet he refuses the easier way because he knows in his heart it's the wrong one.

Huzzah! I can keep the avvie! That's good because i've grown rather fond of it and night have cried if you made me put it back. ASnd I can go pick a banner too. Yays!
I'm glad you liked my banner idea/pics. I cry buckets every time I see that scene by the Anduin. I tear up just seeing the pictures. It's so hard for me to see Frodo in pain.
Don't worry about the graphics thing. I know how busy life can get. i understand. I'll still love you.
Very nice quote! It makes him sound very............ Elvish I think. Very poetic. I don't really know how to describe it. It always strikes me when I hear it though.
I don't have much more to say, and I really want to go steal a banner. *evil grin* So I'll catch you cool cats later! <- don't know where that came from.......
~T.T

EDIT: Have stolen banner. I think it's gorgeous. I'm going with a theme. The theme being Frodo. Frodo and blue. I think it's rather fetching. Perhaps after his birthday I will change it to somethign non-Frodo, but really, what could be better?

That quote is beautiful! It's very empowering for him, and even for the audiences! There is so much strength and personal growth in that quote it's very touching.

TT, you got to steal a banner! Where! I want one! I'm probably getting ahead in myself, but I love your new one!
And I like that you referred to me as a "cool cat". That was cute!

I've never heard of legal stealing . You got permission, remember!

Itarilde, she "stole" it from my tiny little humble site Starspray. You can find it at www.freewebs.com/starspray . And if you want to, you can take whatever banner/avvie you like.
(Sorry, I didn't want to advertise )



We set out to save the Shire, Sam. And it has been saved... but not fot me.

No words needed. One of the most beautiful and sadest sentences ever spoken in a movie.

Forever! You're making me sad! This is one of the saddest lines of the films I think. I really shows how much Frodo has gone through, and how the simple joy of living has been taken away from him by his quest. It's so sad. Nice quote though.

Itarilde, don't believe her! Her site is gorgeous. Very, very, very pretty graphics. I'd recommmend stealing, but only when it's legal, as it is here. And I'm glad you liked my usage of the phrase cool cat. It was purely the inspiration of the moment.

I was going to wait to post this one, but since Forever got to post a sad one, I'll post one too. Plus, it's good to do it before someone else steals my idea.
"I'm glad to be with you Samwise Gamgee. Here at the end of all things."
Saddest quote ever! No questions asked. It gets me every single time. To quote myself earlier, Frodo knows just what to say to break someone's heart.

More pictures of course. I have to do my duties. Although it's more like an absolute joy than a duty to find Frodo pictures.
Here's one. http://www.theargonath.cc/characters/fr ... lainy7.jpg <funny how he looks so perfect, even when he's angry
Here are a ton. They were all so wonderful, I just couldn't decide!

I know it's a lot, but they really are worth it. They're so good. Once again, you guys have to tell me your favorite(s). I think it's a hard time deciding this time!

By the way, I hope you all don't mind, but I've directed another personage to our humble club. She's new. Her username is Frodo's Guide. To me, the name says that she loves Frodo, and she was talking in one of the threads about how she loves Lij. So I thought she would like it here. Just wanted to let you know!

Unfortunately, schoolwork calls. But I'll converse with you all later!

~T.T

Aw! *hugs crying Frodo*
I love him when he's crying. i love him when he's smiling. I love him when he's happy. I love him when he's sad. I love him when he's angry. I love him when he's chewing. I love him. Got it, mate?

Sorry, that was random. I'm feeling a bit too much piratey at the moment.

Thank you for the beautiful pictures, TT. I loved them all (although I personally have my problems with the "obsessed Frodo" scene at the end of TTT. I'm not a total purist, but this was such a grave change of the book and, well, I'm not sure what to think about it. But of course, this has nothing to do with Frodo).


Hey, it's good to get new members! I look forward to Frodo's Guide.


How do you pick up the threads of an old life? How do you go on, when in your heart you begin to understand there is no going back? There are some things time cannot mend. Some hurts that go too deep that have taken hold.


I somehow always seem to pick the sad quotes

I agree whole heartedly and 100% with that statement. It's true in every aspect. And I liked the piratey-ness of it.
That picture makes me want to hug Frodo and hold him and make all his pain go away. Of course, I kind of feel tat way every time I see him sad.
If you're talking about how Frodo went all crazy on Sam nad told him to go, I know what you're saying. Frodo would never do or say something like that. That wasn't him. At all.
You're welcome by the way. I have a good time finding them.
I agree that it's good to get new members. I'm PMing her the link right after I post this, if all goes as planned.

Frodo quote: What are we holding on to Sam?
Sad Sad Sad times 10. Frodo says so many sad things. He has the power to make me indescribably sad, but also inexplicably happy. He's funny that way.
And what's a post from me without a few pictures?
Here's some that should look familiar. I do love this scene so much.
http://www.theargonath.cc/characters/fr ... party1.jpg
http://www.theargonath.cc/characters/fr ... party2.jpg
And another. Doesn't that smile make you melt?
http://www.theargonath.cc/characters/fr ... arty25.jpg
And this one.
http://www.theargonath.cc/characters/fr ... hire22.jpg

And finally, I'll post the image for one I've never seen before, but I rather like.


I love his Hobbit hair. And his Hobbit feet. And his smile. And.......... oh dear. Let's not start that again.

Only one day!!!!!!!!!! til the actual birthday! I'm so excited! I think I'll put it in my siggy today that that it can be up all day tomorrow. I'm baking him a cake tomorrow. I've told my mum it's for Frodo, but she ccan still have some. My poor mum. She'll just never understand why I love LOTR so much.

1 more day!!!!!!

~T.T

P.S. Note, the color is blue. Blue. Just like Frodo's startlingly beautiful eyes....... *sigh*

Yay yay yay! *does chicken dance*

TT, all of your pictures were gorgeous...again. The chicken dance is so great!

Frodo's Guide: Welcome to the club! We're glad to have you here! There's nothing you have to do to become a member of this club than to post here. EarielMaurwen, the founder, is currently not here, but she'll add you to the member list once she's back again.


Btw: Happy Birtday Bilbo as well. I almost forgot about him.

*makes birthday cake*

*munches on Forever's cake* Scrumptious! Thankies!

Welcome and well met to you Frodo's Guide! I'm glad to see you here. As Forever said, nothing you need to do 'cept post. So grab some cake, and get ready to party! And talk about Frodo!

Hopefully Eariel will be back by tomorrow. I miss her.

Of course we can't forget Bilbo! Happy Birthday to him as well. After all, he certainly loved Frodo very much and Frodo thought the world of him.

I actually am going to make a cake today. Probably as soon as I'm done posting. I hope Frodo likes chocolate!

As always, I shall post some more pictures.

Ok. I think that that is loads enough for today. Remember, the party doesn't end here! It'll probably get even crazier tomorrow when Eariel comes back! EEP! (Yes, Forever, I said EEP! )

Starting a list of reasons why we love Frodo (they are practically infinite. I'll put one for now, then someone else can. etc. It'll be fun! I wonder if we can make it to 100......)

1. Because he's Frodo.
