You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

Yes -- it did. It was that scene in TTT where Aragorn floats down the river.

Apparently it is less easy to float while wearing armor and he sank, and then got caught in an undertow and couldn't get himself back up.

What is even happening?

What if NZ is trying to become some sort of hottie Bermuda Triangle? I'll note if it is, it seems particularly focused on those hotties what warm the cold cockles of the Buffistas' brittle hearts. Perhaps we need to send a task force?

I wonder if it was the same hottie murder-attempting river in both instances?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Did anyone check to see if there were kangaroos holding them under?

If they can have wild kangaroos in the UK, I don't see it as an insurmountable problem.

Well, not a larger one than a river that likes to kill movie stars, anyway.

More likely to be sheep, I think.

Edit: I didn't know we had wild kangaroos. peers nervously around

Edit again: unless you mean wallabies. I know about the wild wallabies-- they're like kangaroos, only... not. Smaller, for starters.

I'm suddenly envisioning some river spirit in her underground grotto with a candlelit shrine full of celebrity photos from Tiger Beat magazines that campers have left strewn about the countryside.

Ya know, I'm probably thinking of the wallabies.

Do they drown things too, I wonder?

You're right, sumi -- back to the malicious river theory.

ita, to the best of my knowledge wallabies have never drowned anybody. On the other hand, a Google for "UK wild wallabies drown actor" gets 10 hits, so who am I to say?
