A Conversation for Beach House

A few brightly coloured targets have been set up on a long stretch of grass (Yes, it's a beach, but I have to have a bit of green. It's /my/ house after all.).

There are a few containers of very nice elvish arrows sitting next to a number of elvish bows (of equal good quality), which all give off the aura of truly /wanting/ to be used.

The beaches around here all have grassed areas about them. They're often called golf courses (especially at St. Andrews) or more properly 'Links'. I don't have a problem with them and since I'm the one holding the longbow and arrows, if anyone wants to take the matter up with me...

Beautiful make, Jade... get them done up Lothlorian way? They're a little too... well, Lothlorian looking I guess, to be Rivendell.

May I?

Yes, they are of Lothlorian make. I bought them from Myst's store, actually.

He offered me a set of accuracy rune arrows, but i turned him down. Why should I need them when I can shoot like this?

*She chooses a Mirkhwood longbow, with elvish leaves picked out in gold on. She selects an arrow at random and nocks it in place. She then turns to a target and pulls the string back. She holds it there for what seems like an age, and then she lets the arrow fly. It seems a very natural movement, like that of snow falling from a bamboo leaf.*

We eagerly await your return Euan! The Assassin's Dagger (Mysts's shop) is hereabouts... http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/classic/F104832?thread=227518&latest=1 Have fun. He has lots of pointy things.

Hullo all.

*HDS, looking like Snape, sauntered around the corner carrying a bow that was so big, HDS was bearly a foot taller than it was.*

*HDS halted before a target and shot with fair but not great accuracy into the target with the huge bow.*

*While HDS was pulling back on the string, his eyes flitted to the road and he released the string while the bow was pointing at a tree. The tree roared and punched HDS in the shoulder as it walked past.*

Sorry Treebeard!

*HDS then notched anbother arrow and aimed at the car that had distracted him, he growled "littering filth" and then released the arrow. At the end of its journey, the arrow impaled a soda can to the side of the car it was thrown from*

Blasted litteres.

*HDS indicates his target, lacking any arrows out of 20 in the center of the target, most splayed off to the sides.*

*Misses target completely, but hits a rock 100 yards further downrange*

Sorry, Jade. I think I broke one of the arrows.

*Examines it*

No, it's fine. But I wouldn't like to be the rock.
