My post. Edited, because it's "Gar og Nadrak", not "Yar og Nadrak".

( *is delighted that you're delighted* )

Aki's post.

( I am delighted to produce amusing rambles! )

My post.

( your rambles are always fun! )

Aki's post. I'm trying to post all of the Eddings discussion entries today, so I can move on to the next topic (quest-fantasy) tomorrow.

( sleepy, early-morning, hurried rambling? What fun for you! )

My post. Veers slightly off topic.

( *unjinxes any possible jinxes* )

Aki's post. They keep getting longer and longer. >.>

( Real-life snackery is now OVER! (Unless I just jinxed myself) )

My post.

( Yay for toothless Real Life! )

Collection post.

Aki's:

( Real Life did not merely snack, it devoured ravenously. Parents aided with knife and fork )

My post:

( Real-life snackery )

Aki's post:

( I have kicked Real Life in the teeth, therefore rendering it incapable of snacking! )

My post.

( Real life snacking on you = INSTA-FORGIVENESS! )

Aki's post.

( I apologize for not being here yesterday: Real Life ate me )

My post.

( Hee, I'm highlight-y! )

Aki's post.

( Indeed there does. This is one of the highlights of my day, by the way - I'd forgotten how much I love book-discussion. )

Aki's post.

( You know, the titles in the Tamuli just sort of went all over the place. Belgariad was chess, Malloreon was Person's-Title of Place, Elenium was jewels... and then just some random - two places and a group. Not that I actually had any point to this, but it serves fairly well for spoiler-text. )

Aki's post. Unfortunately, due to the restrains with emoticons available on IJ, a lot of TSR's wonderful smilies have been cut out.

( Witty spoiler text goes here! )

*whistles* You might get this archived in fits and starts, because aside from going through these posts, I've got a whole lot of other things to do - but this is a good way to procrastinate on pretty much all of them.

( These tags are nifty things, aren't they? )

So Aki and I got to talking about David Eddings, because I had - for some ungodly reason - decided to re-read The Malloreon/The Elenium/The Tamuli and posted about it in my wordcount-thread on TSR. After talking on and off about Eddings' work for almost a month, we decided it might be good to archive our discussion somewhere, in case someone else wanted to take part or just read our mad ramblings.

So I'm putting it here - each post in my wordcount thread will be a separate post here as well, so anyone who wants to comment can jump in wherever they want.

( It all began rather innocently... )
