That's kind of eerie. Not what I would want staring out at me from my shelf at night.
I think what my daughter's trying to say is: nyah nyah nyah nyah.

LotR - The Return of the King: "We named the *dog* 'Strider'".
Frodo: Please, what does it always mean, this... this "Aragorn"? Elrond: That's his name. Aragorn, son of Arathorn. Aragorn: I like "Strider." Elrond: We named the *dog* "Strider".

I was charmed (albeit somewhat perplexed) by the fannish sensibility of many of the music choices -- it's like the director was trying to vid Canada. --loligo on the Olympic Opening Ceremonies

Okay, see, that's just wrong. Dye the thing gold or something, will you?

I just don't get them selling it all. It's EVIL folks.

I'm as flabbergasted by couples using the ONE TRUE EVIL to rule all EVIL rings as wedding bands as I am by the same couples playing Every Breath You Take at the reception.
People. Are you paying attention? Evil//Stalking not the best springboard for a lasting partnership.
Unless, of course, you are Sauron and Saruman sittin' in a tree k-i-s-s-i-n-g.

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