O fiance, have you run across this fic yet? I ask, since it's Chibi!Feanor fic, and I know how much you love that. It features a meeting between Olorin and a young Curufinwe son of Finwe. Go read, ya hear?

Never mind this, all you other people, unless you want Silmarillion-fic.

Well, fanfiction.net isn't working, but from your description, I think I have...is it the one about fireworks?

I don't think I'll be able to beat your reading-the-Iliad-in-three-days...but mainly because I've been having to take little 'drawing breaks' in the middle...
^___^

Yah, that one. FF.net is evil, by the way. I want reviews!

...If you add the drawing time at the end, it took me 4 1/2 days. So we're evenish. Or possibly oddish. I think we're definitely oddish.

Yes, definitely oddish...I took drawing time in the middle of reading, but finished it in 3 1/2 days. Not to mention the fact that we're even comparing Iliad reading-and-drawing time lands us squarly in the odd section.

So we're decidely oddish.

I must now squee fangirlishly. Isn't the Iliad *so* *cool*? Possibly even 'kewl'. What's your favorite part? Did you like the gathering of the ships?

*eyes her copy and winces at the sheer amount of dogears* I seem to have gotten the bad habit of folding the top of pages that have something interesting in them...only if the book is mine, thank gods.

Which, summarized, means I liked the book so much I can't find a favorite part in it!

And as for the gathering of the ships, I actually started taking notes to find out the amount of ships in the Greek lines...exactly 1196, supposedly 120 men on each (except for 7, which have only 80). The 120 may just apply to 40 of those ships, but I'm assuming it's the general. So when they say "the face that launched a thousand ships", they really mean it!

Oh, yes, I forgot: It is indeed, so *cool*. I refuse to use 'kewl', but I'll give it 'sparkling anime eyes' expression.
