Logfile from Two Moons.

Session 4

Elfquest has connected.
Rikkert welcomes Elfquest
tinkrbell says "gee i feel like a slacker - i've only been here for 20 minutes"
SparkDance hits Rikkert with a snowball too!
Elfquest says "One... more... time!"
Coldmist says "And there starts the Fourth Session :)"
LegendaryShannon says "Speak of the devil..."
tolan catches it and tosses it back!! =)
Traest woots.
SparkDance says "AAYYYYYYYOOOOOOOOOOAHHH!!"
Fairlight says "Hello again. Getting tired yet?"
Nightsea says "Shade and Sweet Water, Elfquest"
Flashfire says "Uno mas."
tolan says "Happy Happy Joy Joy Happy Happy Joy Joy!"
Elfquest says "Who all's new here this time?"
IceFire has connected.
Nightsea says "*raises hand*"
Cutter steals back the braincell since Flashfire is used to opperating without
it and throws back his head letting out a joyous,
"Ayooooooooooooooooooooooooooooah!!"
Flashfire says "How're you two doing now, after all of this?"
Flashfire joins in with Cutter ;)
Rikkert says "See Sparkdance. I was just saying hi to the Pini's when that
snowball hit. You could have hit them and scare them away"
Kephissa rolls her eyes at Cutter and Flashfire.
Elfquest says "Flashfire, we're both tired and elated."
Flashfire can imagine.
FireHunter lets you steal his strenght!:)
Elfquest says "Traest, but are you gonna break our record any time soon? ;)"
SparkDance says "i'm sure the Pini's dont mind you're covered in snow!"
Nightsea says ""Happy 25th Anniversary!""
tolan breaks out the Jolt Cola :)
Traest laughs. "I dunno - 76 held for a very long time. :)"
Elfquest says "(in best Homer voice) Oooooo, Jolt Cola..."
Flashfire says "We didn't hit the 81 today, did we?"
Traest says "We did."
tolan says "Nice!"
Traest says "During session 1"
Cutter just sips his Sun Drop and grins.
Flashfire says "Y'know, I'm not even sure anyone posted about this in the
ElfQuest community on LiveJournal. D'oh."
SparkDance says "Sweet!"
Rikkert says "Yes, the 81 was during tyhe 3rd chat i believe"
Kephissa says "Cool. I was kinda bummed that I could be on until I got off
work."
Goldeye has arrived.
tinkrbell is new - well new to the chat thing anyhow - but i made it
Goldeye has left.
Goldeye has arrived.
Elfquest says "Don't worry - there are going to be some major news bits on
Monday or Tuesday, and many of you were here while we were scrambling to make
them happen."
Cutter watches the bouncing Goldeye.
Goldeye says "Evening all"
ElfEmberis also new to the chat and to mush
Nightsea says "I've never been to this MUSH before either."
Flashfire wasn't expecting to be able to make these today but took a half-day at
work for something else that turns out to be next weekend, so it's all good.
ElfEmber says "but I'm still excited to be here!"
Goldeye says "lol"
SparkDance says "I am soo happy to be here!! yay"
FireHunter says "Well everyone that signs on is free to look around after all of
this ,,,I think?"
Flashfire woots at WaRP and the news bits to come.
Traest nods. "Yes you are, FireHunter."
LegendaryShannonsuddenly feels like she missed something while she was working
Cutter nods, "Of course they are."
Elfquest says "Well, there's always new folks for whom this is a first time,
so... let's do this!"
Fairlight says "Q: What do you think about Elfquest's proliferation on the
internet: Mailing lists, web forums, appreciation societies, holts, yahoo
groups, communities galore on MSN and other networks- far too much for anyone to
keep track of!"
Elfquest says "Fairlight, it's far too much for anyone to keep track of!"
Traest says "The format here is simple everyone - pure chaos. :) If you have a
question, just spit it out. :)"
SparkDance says "We all heard what Wendy's fav elf was so now we ask
Richard...whtas your fav elf?"
Bramble has arrived.
LegendaryShannon says "Wendy/Richard, wish you could see this gorgeous sunset.
:-)"
Fairlight says "As a part of your job is to keep track of it, that must be a
pain in the coccyx!"
Flashfire heh hehs, and could answer that one ;)
Nightsea says "which was Wendy's?"
Coldmist says "and still it feels like if we are an Underground community ...
there seem to be so utterly many people, but they all hide away ..."
ElfEmber says "I must have missed Wendy's fav elf, could she repeat that?"
tolan says "Oooh, Chaos format is Goood :)"
Goldeye says "question: Did you or someone working with you two ever catch the
jerk who was sending those infected files under Elfquest's email almost a year
ago?"
Elfquest says "Spark, as we said earlier, it's not a case of favorites. Skywise
is my avatar, so to speak, just as Cutter is Wendy's. But they're all
favorites."
FireHunter says "the logs will hopefully remedy that whenpeople see what it's
like:)"
FireHunter says "about the underground comunity"
ElfEmber says "that is the same for me I love all the elves, its hard to pick a
favorite"
Kephissa has left.
SparkDance says "yeah they all rock!"
Nightsea says "Q: any new revelations today about things Elfquest? a 25 year
special? some news announcement?"
Elfquest says "Goldeye, we never caught anyone - I suspect it was simply someone
who just wasn't using a virus cleaner."
Flashfire's got a more private question to ask at some point, but will save it
for e-mail later on.
Cutter just perches in elfmom's lap and listens for the time being.
Flashfire says "Regarding SDCC."
breetah has connected.
tinkrbell says "Q: Are you planning on doing another signing tour this year?"
Elfquest says "Nightsea, oy!!! We did talk about that earlier - short recap,
there will be a 25th anniversary special for the San Diego comic convention this
July, and on Monday or Tuesday we are making some very major announcements on
elfquest.com that will affect EQ for a long time to come!"
LegendaryShannon says "Tinkerbell, they'll be signing at Comiccon in July"
Nightsea says "Fabulous! BTW, thank you both for 25 years of happiness."
Goldeye chuckles at Cutter.
ElfEmber says "Q: Will ElfQuest ever have a signing event on the East Coast? I'm
in Va and it will be a long time until I can make it to San Diego"
tinkrbell says "Right, but I am talking about something that they did a number
of years ago where it was a tour... visiting different cities and the like"
SparkDance says "shannon..have you made every session so far?"
Elfquest says "Tinkrbell, we'd love to, but we are so swamped with what the
major announcement plans are going to be. It all remains to be seen."
LegendaryShannon says "Spark, no I was only here for an hour in the morning."
Rikkert says "QUESTION: Nowadays, doyou work out a whole plot before the artwork
starts, or do you 'make it up as you go along, just following a main story-idea'
Do story-changing ideas (like letting skywise live in the original quest) still
happen?"
Guest1 has left.
Elfquest says "Regarding signing events and tour stops and such, it all depends
a lot on what, when and where we get sent."
Windrider has connected.
Goldeye says "I think us East Coasters need to "kidnap" Wendy and Richard for a
summer:)"
ElfEmber says "I will just keep pinching my pennies for San Diego =o)"
tinkrbell says "Try to get sent to Oregon... i know at least one person would be
ecstatic to see you :)"
ElfEmber says "I agree with you Goldeye!"
Elfquest says "Rikkert, Wendy says in the new story lines, yes, events sometimes
just happen. In stories that delve into history, we have to be a bit more
structured."
LegendaryShannontries to imagine making up the storyline while drawing the
artwork and has a short-circuit
Fairlight says "Hola windrider!"
Tsumarin has connected.
Elfquest says "Oregon is a very nice place. There are a lot of nice places one
or both of us have been to, and would enjoy returning to."
breetah says "Hello all!"
Cutter waves to breetah
ElfEmber says "Hi breetah"
Elfquest says "Legend... cute... ;)"
Windrider says "Hello Fairlight!"
Zarah has connected.
Rikkert says "QUESTION: How do you keep track of everything. There's so much!
(Thank the High Ones)"
Elfquest says "Rikkert, that's what computers and fannish nit-pickers are for.
:)"
Coldmist grins broadly at that
Nightsea says "have you seen the online "family tree" efforts? and do you have a
cannon one made up yourselves?"
Goldeye chuckles
Elfquest says "There have been times when we have to go to the Wolfrider's Guide
or the gatherum!"
Guest2 has arrived.
Guest1 has left.
LegendaryShannonwrites down that gag
Elfquest says "Nightsea, we've seen them, and they're very neat! But we do have
on "official" one."
Fairlight says "Ah! Will it ever be published?"
Elfquest says "Fairlight, perhaps. Neither of us has ever felt the desire nor
the need to go to great levels of detail for the telling of the stories."
Flashfire says "That's one problem with 25 years of stuff. There's a lot of
history to adhere to if you want to be consistent with What's Gone Before."
Elfquest says "In fact, great levels of detail tend to bog fantasies/stories
down, and keep it from flying as we'd like."
Rikkert says "QUESTION: In the new coloured editions, will mistakes be updated?
I.e. drawings where elves have 5 fingers"
Fairlight says "That's an understandable point. I remember how empty I felt
after reading the RPG books through. It took away some of the magic"
LegendaryShannon says "I'm off to dinner and a gala night at the Opera...oh
wait, poker. Well, whatever! Hope the chat goes well!!"
Nightsea says "totally understandable. but fanatics do like details...even not
in story format. :)"
FireHunter says "night Shannon"
Northwind has arrived.
Elfquest says "Rikkert, yes, many mistakes will be updated, as well as bits of
dialog. Also, Wendy has made some artistic decisions as well, for aesthetics'
sake."
Coldmist says "bye shannon :)"
Traest thinks TwoMoons MUSH has asked for more details from the Pinis than they
care to think about. :)
ElfEmber says "Q: I know this has probably been asked many times, but will there
be another ElfQuest Calendar with Wendy's art?"
Fairlight says "Showing, not telling. It's like the difference between seeing
the ease with which Cutter can lift his children, and noting that his strength
is "14""
Elfquest says "So long, Shannon!"
tolan says "hehe"
LegendaryShannon has disconnected.
breetah says "I'm just happy to get a chance to say to WaRP, Thank you and yet
those two words seem... inadequate! :)"
Northwind breezes into the room (pardon the pun). "Good day, all! Ayoooah!"
Elfquest says "Traest, yes, but we're past masters at evasion."
Traest says "We've noticed, grrr. :)"
Cutter snickers.
Flashfire snickers.
tolan grins
SparkDance grins
Elfquest says "Breetah, they are perfectly adequate and more!"
Elfquest says "ElfEmber, there will almost certainly be more EQ calendars with
Wendy's art."
ElfEmbergrins
Cutter cheers and will have to get that one too.
Flashfire says "Excellent."
tolan dance with joy! :)
SparkDance smiles
Flashfire says "QUESTION: Hmm. Here's a thought. I know we have the 12-month
calendars - has Warp considered a page-a-day calendar format of some kind? Would
it even be feasible?"
Elfquest says "We wonder if there's anyone here from over the ocean? It must be
very late there!"
Guest3 has arrived.
Northwind says "By the by, Wendy's new art is stupendous! I love the King and
Queen of Night!"
Coldmist is, but is used to that :)
Cutter oooos at the thought of a page-a-day EQ calandar.
Elfquest says "Flashfire, anything's possible - but we think someone else would
have to be involved, to put it together, format it, etc."
Flashfire says "Undoubtedly. Thanks."
FireHunter says "are you kidding I'd never open it!:)"
SparkDance nods " a page a day calender..awesome
Northwind is from Malaysia, South East Asia. it's 10 a.m. here.
Cutter would have to get one to keep sealed and one to look at.
Elfquest says "Northwind, so does Wendy (love them) - guess who they are?"
Rikkert waves saying "Me, me! I'm still from the Netherlands, there its 3.15 AM
Fairlight says "Yes, the king and queen pieces are wonderful, but lets not
forget the rest. All of it is great!"
Nightsea says "Q: has Wendy used more than PSP or Adobe with her art?"
Bramble says "Could reuse old art, and we'd still probably snap it up a page a
day calender up."
Elfquest says "Northwind, you take the record! :)"
SparkDance says "yep!yep Rikkert you must be tired!"
Elfquest says "Rikkert, you're indefatigable!"
Flashfire's a west coaster, himself.
Rikkert says "When i meet my parents this afternoon i just know they are going
to comment i look like i don't sleep enough"
IceFire says "53 North, 6 East -Netherlands here :)"
Bramble says "Hmmm, so can we keep this up to 3:15am Pacific? ;)"
SparkDance is from the east coast
Northwind looks confused. "Record for what?"
Elfquest says "Nightsea, she often begins with a watercolor painting, and then
uses PShop to enhance it."
Fairlight wishes he had Rikkert's stamina...
FireHunter could go for 7 am PST:P
Tsumarin says "the new art? maybe bearclaw and joyleaf?"
SparkDance says "dont we all :P"
Elfquest says "Bramble, YOU can keep it going as long as you want - we'll be
dead. :)"
Northwind says "King of Night looks a little like Tyldak..."
Cutter will have to go to bed at a halfway decent hour since he has to be up
tomorrow morning too.
Elfquest says "No, King and Queen of Night have nothing to do with Elfquest. ;)"
Tsumarin says "ah oops"
Fairlight says "Would it be possible to get a more in-depth breakdown of the
methods that Wendy uses with photoshop? In the "old" days, every brushstroke and
line is there on the page -- now it's all lost when the layers are flattened, so
to speak..."
Rikkert says "Well all the snowballs SparkDance threw kept me up."
Nightsea says "speaking of Tyldak, I have an old image from a scifi mag
cover..."
Kahvi says "Oberon, Titania. The Great Mother, and her 'Son'. Something in that
direction?"
Cutter says "Blue Mermaid looks a lot like Raenafel or Winnowill. But, they're
all gorgeous."
Flashfire says "That was my first thought as well, Cutter."
Elfquest says "Kahvi, you got it!"
Nightsea says "it looks like Tyldak in front of the glass window Savah sits
near"
Bramble says "I was just going to say that, Cutter!"
Kahvi smiles, "The symbolism speaks for itself"
ElfEmber says "I saw that too Cutter, she's beautiful"
Tsumarin says "nice guess kahvi :)"
Nightsea says "does Wendy remember that one?"
Northwind says "Who? Oberon...?"
Elfquest says "Wendy says at some point she wants to get back into a chat
situation like this and give art tips, and that would be the place for delving
into Photoshop tricks and so on."
tolan watches it all go over his head :)
Fairlight says "OK. I'd love to hear those!"
Goldeye ooooers.........."I am so there!"
Coldmist says "Oh yes! That's a beautiful idea!"
tolan says "that would be *very* cool"
Traest says "We can arrange something like that on here if you want, EQ."
Tsumarin says "that would be wonderful! id die at the thought of personal tips
from the great artist herself hehe"
Elfquest says "Nightsea, that image is of a Poul Anderson character called
Aycharaych - and Tyldak was inspired by him."
Elfquest says "Traest, thanks - we'll discuss it at the appropriate time!"
Rikkert says "Have you ever seen the work of the spanish 'comic book' writer
Vicente Segrellis? He used tu make Oil-drawings, but now also uses the computer
on a lot of it. His drawings are really beatyfull"
Cutter would love some tips from Wendy, himself.
Guest3 has disconnected.
Northwind says "Just wondering - anyone else from the eastern hemisphere?
Australia perhaps?"
Nightsea says "yes I have the whole magazine. it's cool to know Tyldak's
inspiration! thanks"
Guest3 has left.
Elfquest says "Wendy did about a dozen and a half covers and/or illustrations
for those earlier science-fiction magazines."
Nightsea says "any chance more of that art could be "reprinted" online at
eq.com?"
Elfquest says "We should put those up on elfquest.com."
Nightsea says "GMTA!"
Elfquest says "GMTA!"
SparkDance says "neat :)"
Rikkert says "Question: which magazines?"
Coldmist blinks
Fairlight says "The one thing that's always been missing from EQ.com: The covers
from the Warp-published original quest!!!""
Rikkert says "IceFire: ain't it just beatifull?"
Elfquest says "These were "Galaxy" and "Worlds of If" from the early-1970s."
Neko has arrived.
SparkDance says "night y'all!"
Elfquest says "That oversight can be corrected - actually you can see the back
covers in the online art shop!"
SparkDance has disconnected.
Cutter waves to SparkDance!
Cutter says "Darn, missed."
Northwind has reconnected.
IceFire says "yeah Rikkert"
Northwind says "Eep! just when I asked a question..."
Elfquest says "What question?"
Cutter says "Northwind asked if there was anybody else from the eastern
hemisphere."
Northwind says "I asked if there was anyone else from the Eastern Hemisphere
present.."
Jadelion has connected.
Northwind smiles. "Thanks, Cutter."
Cutter says "Hello Jadelion."
Jadelion says "Hello"
Northwind waves at jjadelion
Nightsea says "I'm in upstate NY...above Poughkeepsie even"
Elfquest says "Most of NY is above Poughkeepsie!"
Goldeye says "or West of it.""
Coldmist grins
Peacepine has connected.
Northwind grins.
IceFire says "above or North? :)"
Coldmist says "Peacepine! welcome!"
ElfEmber says "How long has everyone been reading ElfQuest? It has been six
years for me, but feels like a lifetime!"
Cutter grins and waves to Peacepine.
Nightsea says "in more ways than one j/k"
Peacepine says "Wow, I figured it out!"
Cutter has been reading it for the better part of 20 years.
Tsumarin says "about half my life here, im 21 now.."
Traest's been reading if for 8 years.
FireHunter says "since the Graphics novels first came out!:)"
tolan's been reading for 15 years
breetah says "I've been reading for 20 years"
Nightsea says "welcome Peacepine...maker of a lovely WEQ website"
Goldeye has been reading EQ for about 20 years, almost 21
Elfquest says "Just to jog the collective collection here, while you've got us
both online, any new and provocative questions?"
Peacepine says "I've been reading since I was eleven, so... let's see... a long
time. :)"
Fairlight says "Since 88. My father and I had hunted through every store in two
cities looking for a book. We never found it, but in the very last store we
looked in, I saw Elfquest, and was immediately hooked. I was 10."
Rikkert says "Question: Have you ever heard of the artists Schuiten/Peeters.
They have this series that is also translated in English I Think it's called The
dark cities. I got to know it because i bought a magazine with an Elfquest
Intervieuw, and it had 16 pages on this person Francois Schuiten. I saw it and
it mesmarised me"
Peacepine says "Aww, thanks Nightsea!"
Cutter had to buy a subscription from Marvel to get their printings of the comic
because there weren't any comic shops in his home town and none close enough for
him to bribe his parents into taking him to once a month.
Elfquest says "Rikkert, alas, no, we haven't heard of that series."
Nightsea says "Wendy hinted that the fashion industry was an influence on her
art...that still true? and what other new vibes?"
Goldeye thinks on EQ's question
Tsumarin says "i got mine in a used book store, all second hand"
Bramble says "Must be close to fifteen years since a guy who wanted to go out
with me lent me books 1-4. We never did date, but I got hooked on EQ for life."
Northwind says "For the past two months. *grin* But I first encountered them
about 10 years ago when I inherited a couple of editions from my cousin."
Traest says "Elfquest: (relayed from another person) Is there any possibility of
doing a 'collector's set' of the GNs? Like all the full-color GNs, signed, etc?"
Elfquest says "Nightsea, Wendy pays a lot of attention to what people are doing
and wearing on the streets, she does a lot of schmoozing with people, asking
questions."
Goldeye says "Question regarding the toys, I think I asked this
earlier........Is series 2 out yet and are there going to be anymore series?"
Rikkert says "QUESTION: Do you welcome emails with information about other
artist, and links to their websites and stuff?"
Elfquest says "Traest, when the new graphic novels come out, that would be a
spiffy idea. And we like to implement spiffy ideas."
Elfquest says "Goldeye, Series 1 is sold out, and Series 2 is in limbo at the
moment. We're hopeful that some new partners will get it out of limbo for us."
tinkrbell says "well I have done my obligatory question -- have fun everyone!
Congrats on 25 years!"
Cutter says "QUESTION: Will Wendy's new art be available through eq.com or am I
going to have to dig for a place to buy it since it doesn't seem that there is a
store near me that carries their merchandise?"
Nightsea says "be well, tinkrbell"
Elfquest says "Rikkert, we do like to see what other artists are doing, so we
will look at other sites."
Fairlight says "Is there any possibility of a giant elfquest 'brick' containing,
say, the first whole quest in one book, then Siege and Wheel in the next?" I
love these things"
Goldeye whews and is glad to be able to own Series 1.........
Peacepine says "Question: When will we see the rest of the story about Mender
and the humans in Wild Hunt? Or is it out somewhere and I missed it?"
tinkrbell needs to figure out how to disconnect *grin*
Cutter waves to tinkrbell
Flashfire says "Just type 'QUIT' ;)"
Cutter says "Type QUIT"
tinkrbell says "thanks :)"
tolan grins and tries to think of a provocative question "Ah! :QUESTION: Can you
confirm or deny the one time existance of a Bloodsong project, and are you
willing to comment on the current status of this alleged project? Inquireing
minds want to know. O.o :)
Elfquest says "Cutter, we will carry Wendy's new prints, but we also hope that
fan requests will inspire stores in your area(s) to get them as well."
Goldeye lol's
Barb says "QUESTION: I would like to know if "the Line of Beauty" that Sonny
Strait mentioned Wendy looks for (okay, demands) is literal, metaphoric, both or
something else?"
Fairlight says "Tolan, we've been there ;)"
Elfquest says "Fairlight, all things are possible."
Elfquest says "Peacepine, that story is still being finished - as soon as we
have it all, you"
tolan says "hehe, figures"
Fairlight says "OK. Is it *likely* then..."
Fairlight says ":)"
Northwind wants to know about the continuing story of -Rayek-. Will there be
more on him? Will his wyrd ever be resolved?
Peacepine says "I look forward to it. Interesting story line."
Elfquest says "Tolan, the project did exist, but upon reflection we realized it
might hurt the chances for a movie, so it's been shelved - for now."
Nightsea says "any more movie poster art going to be made by Wendy?"
breetah says "Q: Do you know what the distribution will be like for the movie?
Limited? Wide?"
Elfquest says "Barb, Wendy says: the line of beauty is literal - there is an
accent that one can put into one's drawings that evokes sensuality and beauty."
Rikkert says "QUESTION: At one point in time you made slibcases for the Father
Tree Press Hardcover Graphic novels. Will you ever make these for the later
publications or for the comics (to give my stack of comics the look they
deserve)"
Fairlight says "Is the squeamishness that some have for erotica a frustration
then, given that it seems to have led to projects being shelved?"
tinkrbell has disconnected.
Peacepine says "Good question, Barb!"
Elfquest says "Northwind, definitely!"
Barb says "Does that have to do with line dynamics, then? Am I being too geeky?"
Northwind says "Oh good. *pause* When? *grins cheekily*"
Elfquest says "Rikkert, we probably won't make them, but we can ask others to."
Elfquest says "Fairlight, Wendy says it's more than 'some', it's many and that's
too bad."
Coldmist says "I was unable to listen to the Interview earlier that day with
Corbie Mitleid ... Has this second part been a bit more in depth with the
metaphysics you have been 'hinting' about in the first one?"
Elfquest says "Barb, yes, it does."
Northwind says "Who... 50 people logged into Two Moons! And that's only at this
moment. This is a howl to remember! Ayoooah! EQ @ 25!"
tolan awwws
Elfquest says "Coldmist, the second interview followed from the first, and dealt
with "Stories as Mentors"."
Coldmist hmmms and nods
Tsumarin says "unfortunely i missed the interview today myself, i do hope there
will be a transcript, or downloadable for it.."
Peacepine says "Wendy, my sister was surprised to see a unicorn in one of your
new drawings. (they are beautiful btw). She said she once read that you said
that if you saw another unicorn you would spontaneously self-combust or
something. Is it true you felt that way at one time and if so, do you feel
differently now? :)"
Elfquest says "I think part of an answer got deleted - it had to do with Wendy's
new art prints - you'll find them on elfquest.com soon."
Fairlight says "Joseph Campbell is often mentioned as an influence. Are there
any other mythographers and legend-masters that you can guide us to, or which
perhaps have had an influence on yourselves?"
FireHunter says "In the text novels of BoTC it seems that EQ is less
errotic/willing to be open about relationships but in the alter books it's to me
more open, is this an intentional effort or just a misinterpretation on my part
or from my reading the text world to Graphical?:)"
Flashfire thinks she's managed not to self-combust, thankfully ;)
alter=later
Nightsea says "any more cards in the EQ Tarot deck available?"
Elfquest says "Peacepine, Wendy says all creatures of mythology have their
place, and a unicorn was appropriate in this print... but never in EQ!"
Bramble says "Will the EQ tarot deck ever be available?"
Northwind says "EQ: Richard, this one's for you - I've got UNICORN ISLE 1 - 5,
but can't seem to find 6 - 12. Were they ever produced?"
Elfquest says "Fairlight, read the Ramayana, any version."
Tasmonia has connected.
Fairlight says "Will do. Thanks!"
Windrider says "Good stuff, the Ramayana."
Cutter would like to know about the tarot deck as well.
Elfquest says "Firehunter, it's very likely simply the fact that in comics, you
have the added stimulus of the artwork."
Peacepine says "*laughs* I'll tell my sister. :)"
Fairlight says "Is that Hindu? I saw a 40-part tv serialisation of the
Maharabharata once"
Elfquest says "The Tarot deck is on hold in favor of new stories, etc."
Peacepine says "I've had that same problem with Unicorn Isle! I've always
wondered...."
Elfquest says "Northwind, alas, no they weren't."
Nightsea says "awww I had made my own version of the EQ major arcana years and
years ago (before Wendy showed hers online)"
Peacepine says ""awww, that was a really nice story. :("
Elfquest says "Just some of the ups and downs of comics publishing..."
Northwind has partially disconnected.
Nightsea says "EQ and Tarot are both passions of mine and combining them just
seemed fun"
Tsumarin says "My apologies, because I think this question was asked, but is it
known how far the distribution for the EQ movie is planned to be?"
Rikkert says "QUESTION: Have you got any idea how many readers you have
worldwide?"
Bramble says "Q: Speaking of the ups and downs of comics publising. Will I ever
get the guest shot in a comic I won in the EQ-L Raffle in 2000?"
Flashfire says "Boy, would going to the premiere of that be something."
Flashfire grins at Bramble. Good memory.
Elfquest says "Tsumarin, as the movie is still very early in development,
questions like that just can't be answered, it would be sheer speculation."
Tsumarin says "okay, thankyou :)"
Kahvi says "Is the Tarot deck going to be the full Arcana of 78? Or just the
major Arcana of 22?"
ElfEmber says "I'm not sure if this is off topic, but are there any stories
available with Suntop as an adult? If not, will there be any published?"
Elfquest says "Bramble, we want to make good on our promise/prize - our
publishing agenda has changed dramatically so send us an email to remind us to
push for this."
Nightsea says "perhaps the Tarot art could go in a calendar while we wait for
the full deck?"
BerryWhisper has connected.
Flashfire says "That's such a wicked prize, though. :)"
Elfquest says "Rikkert, you know, we've never been able to gauge that. It seems
many readers are the quiet sort, who never let us know they are there!"
tolan nods :)
Cutter grins, "That would be very cool to see the tarot artwork in a calendar."
Elfquest says "Kahvi, it will be the complete deck of 78."
Bramble says "Okay, I will. I knew the publishing plan had shifted since then.
(And you stoped publishing for a while) And I didn't want to nag."
Fairlight says "Do you find that readers from different places tend to have a
different "take" on EQ altogether?"
Elfquest says "Ember, we will follow him through adulthood - he does grow up
some in "in All But Blood"."
Peacepine says "Tarot: *whistles!*"
Elfquest says "Fairlight, definitely yes. Some focus on the mythology, some on
the characters totally."
ElfEmber says "yes I loved that!"
Rikkert says "the number of readers is proberbly a number to high to grasp
anyway. Like if you'd wan 5 million dollars, the only 'value' you can call it is
"just a whole load of money""
Elfquest says "We'd enjoy having a whole load of readers, then. And a whole load
of money!"
Barb says "You actually find that focus to be largely regional? Can you give an
example?"
Cutter says "QUESTION: Who, exactly, is Brill that Suntop is pictured with in
the Lovemates calendar? You've probably heard that one a million times but, I've
never seen it answered anywhere.""
Coldmist says "I can just say from my experience, that most German readers got
the view on Recognition totaly wrong. Most still think that elves are able to
Recognize someone as their soulbrother or soulsister, not that this is
volunteerily"
Elfquest says "Barb, we don't find it to be particularly regional. What we do
find to be regional is the manners in which opinions and such are expressed,
however."
Bramble says "Wasn't Brill one of the Seaelfs?"
Fairlight says "The manners?"
Coldmist says "Brill is one of the 'new' Wavedancers"
Rikkert says "Well, a whole lot of internatoinal sales must do SOMETHING to your
bankaccount"
Elfquest says "Cutter, she's one of the WaveDancers."
FireHunter says "you mean involuntary coldmist?"
Windrider says "You have to ask, Fairlight? LOL"
Cutter nods, "I wasn't ever able to get the second Wavedancers series."
Elfquest says "Recognition is solely for the purpose of mating and
reproduction."
Fairlight says "Aer you impugning my manners, Windy? :>"
Nightsea says "I've always wondered about Rayek and Winnowill being "half souls"
is that true, possible in EQ or a winnie trick?"
Dawncloud has arrived.
Neko says "Aren't they one soul now?"
Windrider says "If the leather elf boot fits..."
Elfquest says "It's WENDY!"
Nightsea says "if they were really one soul, is that why Rayek could "absorb"
her? I enjoy the stories as presented, but still have Q's now and then"
tolan snickers
Fairlight says "Windy as in Windrider, not Wendy.... :>"
Traest chuckles. "Oh, sorry, Wendi. :)"
Windrider says "I think Fairlight was apeaking to me. BTW, this is Carol... HI!"
Dawncloud has left.
Elfquest says "Nightsea, they're very much alike, that's all."
Dawncloud has arrived.
Neko says "She is still traped inside him right?"
Nightsea says "Ahhh."
Coldmist says "no, Neko"
Peacepine says "So if Recognition is for mating and reproduction, what is the
purpose of soul siblings? Does that {happen} or do elves choose it?"
Elfquest says "Neko, yes, that's right."
Tsumarin says "good question peace"
Guest3 has left.
Elfquest says "How do you define "soul siblings"?"
Tasmonia says "Windrider, as in the EQ artist?"
Coldmist says "really? I thought they found a shard of the Palace through the
trolls, and then they 'banned' her inside that shard?"
FireHunter says "Cutter and SKywise"
Nightsea says "Windrider, my name is Carol too. :)"
Windrider says "Yes, I was Wendy's assistant for IABB."
Peacepine says "like cutter and skywise know each others soulnames"
Nightsea says "winnie calls Rayek her's soul's brother."
Elfquest says "Cutter and Skywise are not "soul siblings." What they have is
unique, and is so unusual there is no term for it."
Tasmonia says "I loved your work!"
Rikkert says "QUESTION: In the forseeable future, are there any publications
planned in OTHER magazines? I.e. the two stories in th Frank Frazetta Fantasy
Illustrated Magazine?"
Fairlight says "And a damn fine job you did too, Carol"
Elfquest says "Nightsea, that is a sort of poetic way of saying they are so much
alike, but it's not literal."
Windrider says "Thanks. I had loads of fun and learned a great deal."
Tasmonia says "I am studying plant biology, and I too am obsessed with having
"correct" foliage in my pics"
Elfquest says "HEYO, Carol!"
Elfquest says "Rikkert, no such plans."
Nightsea says "sometimes the poetry can get misread then. my bad."
breetah has disconnected.
Windrider says "Ayyyooooah, Richard and Wendy!"
Elfquest says "By the way, if you liked the cover to "In All But Blood" - the
painting that Windrider did - it will very soon be available as a signed print
in the elfquest.com online art shop. ;)"
Tsumarin says "ooo"
Rikkert says "To bad by the way a great magazine like FFFI stopped (or went
broke, or whatever the reason was it stopped even though number 9 was announced
if i remember correct"
Leila has arrived.
Fairlight says "Carol seems, to my eye, to be the artist most 'on-model'. But
she also has style of her own, a quite 'Yin' one that nicely balances Sonny's
"Yang" in IABB. Did anyone else notice this?"
Windrider says "Yes. ;)"
Elfquest says "Yin and Yang, yes. Each artist was cast for that reason on
his/her particular story."
Nightsea says "perhaps I watch too much anime and thus always think the odd
terms and reasons are the correct ones"
Peacepine says "Definitely! I really like Carol's style."
Elfquest says "Nightsea, no problem."
Elfquest says "Carol is an exceptional and meticulous artist - it was a pleasure
working with her. And we will work together again."
ElfEmber says "I am soooo sorry but I am a little lost here, what story did
Windrider (Carol) illustrate? Its hard for me to remember all of the artists'
names."
Elfquest says "She finished Wendy's pencil layouts on "Full Circle""
Nightsea says "if Wendy does do a chat about the "how tos" of her art and
digital tools, could that please go in the "how to draw EQ" spot on eq.com?"
ElfEmber says "Oh! Thank you!"
ederwink has connected.
Rikkert says "QUESTION: Does Barry Blair still work on Elfquest Stories, or is
he all wrapped up in his own worlds? PS You must have learned to fasttype my
name by now ;-) !!"
Elfquest says "Nightsea, certainly, once we have the illustrations and the
logs/text."
Tasmonia says "Elfquest, could there be a chat sometime in the future devoted to
art?"
Peacepine says "Oo, is Windrider Carol, the artist we are talking about? :)"
Elfquest says "Rikkert, Barry Blair has not worked on EQ for about 5 years."
Tsumarin says "yes peacepine :)"
Nightsea says "yes, Peacepine"
Windrider says "'Meticulous' is exactly the right word. I wonder sometimes that
Wendy could put up with me. ;)"
Elfquest says "Wendy says, well..............."
Leila goes home.
Leila has left.
Flashfire snorts.
Peacepine says "(heh, there's an echo in here) That's very exciting. Carol, I
truly enjoyed your story and all the sketches you included."
ElfEmber says "yes Carol I did too, I'm sorry that I could not pinpoint exactly
which one for a moment!"
Kahvi snuggles with Flashfire
Flashfire woos.
FireHunter thinsk ELfquests answer to the Art was to talk to traest about it not
a yes:)
Rikkert says "Has it been that long?"
Nightsea says "here's a nitpick...how come I sent in $25 to join the worldwide
EQ Fanclub then soon after found out it was dissolved (again)?"
Elfquest says "We were hoping Sonny Strait could be here tonight too, but he's
otherwise engaged."
Fairlight says "It's dissolved? When?"
Windrider says "Aww, and Sonny is always such fun."
Guest3 has left.
Nightsea says "I only read about it online...got no "notice" even"
Guest3 has arrived.
Guest3 has left.
Elfquest says "Nightsea, your payment got the package of stuff which was what it
was for. The club function has moved to elfquest.com and various boards where
people are much more likely to interact with each other than through a sporadic
magazine that we might publish."
Peacepine says "I enjoyed those "Lodestone" booklets we used to get. :) Sendings
is a great magazine, though - helps fill the void."
Elfquest says "Yes, Sendings is a very well-done 'zine."
Nightsea says "not complaining about the stuff or price...just a shame the club
can't manage to keep one incarnation going"
Nightsea says "I joined "for life" for $5 once too. lol"
Elfquest says "And you're STILL a member! You just "meet" elsewhere now. ;)"
Fairlight says "The internet makes stuff like right now possible. Isn't this
enough?"
Fairlightlol
Peacepine says "Me, too. :) I lost my green Elfquest pin long ago. That still
tweaks me."
Nightsea says "it's all good! ayoooooah"
Bramble says "I just joined for the goodies anyways. ;)"
Elfquest says "That's smart!"
Nightsea says "I joined to support WARP"
Peacepine says "Are there ever comic conventions near Minnesota that you go to?"
Guest3 has arrived.
Guest3 has left.
ederwink says "what goodies are there?"
Tasmonia says "Yeah yeah--come to Minnesota!!!"
Peacepine says "can you still get the goodies?"
Elfquest says "Regarding conventions, we're still planning, depending on time
and other resources."
Windrider says "BTW, Fairlight, yes the Ramayana is a Hindu epic. Campbell
quotes it frequently."
Barb says "Hey, I want goodies, too."
BerryWhisper says "I have my pack all together and stuck in with my ElfQuest
books."
Nightsea says "that reminds me...do either or both of you read the posts at the
new Scroll of Colors forum?"
Peacepine says "I still have an unused EQ pencil from long ago. :)"
Elfquest says "Wendy adds, regarding personal appearances, which would you
rather have - our smiling faces, or a lot more stories? :)"
Tsumarin says "hehe minnesotans i would think stand more of a chance than new
mexico at any rate :) we have no cons"
Dawncloud says "It's been mentioned that there are pieces of yourselves, as
authors, put into a characters. Have you found that those characters grown in a
type of parallel to you? Or that they've taken the story over and written it for
themselves?"
Elfquest says "Nightsea, I skim the messages from time to time, but it takes
time too."
Bramble says "Stories!"
Tasmonia says "Wendy...what a decision to have to make!"
ederwink says "what does the good pack contain berry whisper?"
Elfquest says "Dawncloud, it's definitely a case of parallel growth."
Fairlight says "Since you're both in one place, I'll take this time to thank you
both, actually. Thank you, Wendy and Richard, for the many many years of
wonderful, life-giving stories, for the many tales of character and spirit that
have been a guiding light in my life."
Nightsea says "and ppl are against clonning. sheesh."
Flashfire echoes that, Fairlight. Bravo.
Tsumarin says "here here Fairlight"
Tasmonia says "Is it group hug time again?"
Dawncloud cheers
Flashfire says "No..I don't wanna get all sniffly on Kahvi!"
Kahvi ?
DawnStar smiles "Yes Thank you!! I have started another generation of fans for
you. I read the first novel to my children at bedtimes"
Peacepine says "Ayooah, Fairlight! The stories of EQ have affected my life more
than any other stories."
ederwink hugs whoever is near her
Kahvi pokes Flashy
Cutter chuckles and hear hears as well.
Flashfire is still being snuggled ;)
tolan grins
Elfquest says "Thank you all for the heartfelt sentiments - we'd love to be
cloned several times over to be able to meet every one."
Fairlight says "Richard, at least, knows I am not one to talk like this often,
so cherish it while it lasts. :>"
BerryWhisper says "Ederwink I remember having a sample LodeStone newsletter, a
picture if Timmian and Skywise, a pin, some temperary tattos. Not sure what
else"
Cutter says "Yeah, my son keeps walking by the computer asking, 'Are you talking
to Wendy and Richard?' in a mildly awed voice."
Nightsea says "I've met you both twice in person...but spent so many more hours
with your work. Thanks for sharring."
Elfquest says "Cutter, we hope you are telling him "sure" - and that we say
hello to him too! :)"
ederwink says "hehe and I'm asking myself that"
Rikkert says "Keep in mind that for every Wendy or every Richard, there can also
be another Saddam Hoessein or Osama Bin Laden!"
IceFire says "Richard, how about holographic remote precence like in Erlangen?"
Cutter tugs him over and just shows him the text.
Tsumarin says "how pessimistic rikkert :/"
Rikkert says "So be carefull what you wish for"
FireHunter says "and more EQ !!"
Flashfire says "Well, I'll reiterate an earlier desire, that if and when some
new stories come out, something featuring more of a look at Timmorn is
considered. :) I'd love to see him in his more youthful days (as opposed to
yootful days, as Joe Pesci said in My Cousin Vinny)"
Rikkert winks
Peacepine says "I remember when I was 13 years old and had to save $12 to get
the next EQ book!! And then locking myself in my bedroom to read the whole thing
in one sitting. Aww, those were the days. :)"
Cutter grins, "He just squealed and jumped around."
FireHunter Still can't put them down once he opens one!:)
Flashfire says "Maybe they'll even say hi to him ;)"
IceFire says
"http://home.t-online.de/home/ulrich.schreglmann/comicsalon/ComicSalon3.htm"
Peacepine says "Will we be seeing more of The Rebels or Jink?"
Flashfire bets Timmorn was a terror as a cub ;)
tolan says "Yeah, Futurequest was fun while it lasted :)"
BerryWhisper says "I have the same problem when I get a new ElfQuest. Even if I
just mean to read a little the whole thing is read."
Zarah has disconnected.
Tasmonia says "Richard, have you always had a beard?"
Tsumarin says "it is difficult to savor the EQ stories and make them last hehe"
Nightsea says "that's what rereading is for. ;)"
Elfquest says "We would like to see more of Futurequest too - it's a great tale,
and it will interweave with other stories we're working on."
Peacepine says "And I had to Internet (how did I survive) and thought I was just
about the only person in the world who knew about EQ. Little did I know. I was
floored when I saw the following online."
Tsumarin says "which is why my GNs are falling apaprt"
Elfquest says "Tas, well, not for the first 3 years of my life..."
Guest2 has disconnected.
Tasmonia laughs
Cutter grins.
Peacepine says "I mean "no" Internet"
Tsumarin emote laughs
Flashfire says "Hit puberty at an early age, eh?"
Bramble has an urge to break out all her books and read everything in one big
push.
Elfquest says "Wendy says if I would shave it, I would look all of 14..."
Peacepine says "yes, we need to learn who Jink's father is!!"
Fairlight says "The online following was a great discovery for me. I had never
met nor communicated with another Elfquest fan prior to that in any way...""
Tasmonia says "it must have preserved you well"
Flashfire says "That's why I keep a goatee..even at 25, I'd be too young-looking
without."
Elfquest says "And of course we could never do this, if there were no 'online'."
Guest2 has left.
Guest3 has left.
Shadows has arrived.
Guest2 has arrived.
Bramble says "Oh, I so want a new color edition of Kings of the Broken Wheel to
come out, because my Book 7 and 8 are falling apart."
Rikkert says "not pessemistic. Realistic. I would love to have more Wendy's and
Richards. But only if they don't fight over which Wendy gets to draw what story
of cource. I wouldn't want them just fighing and not working ;-)"
Peacepine says "Yes, how far we have come."
Tasmonia says "Whose Con pictures are these?"
Fairlight says "Elfquest seems to have quite a dispersed following - the
internet brings us together."
Flashfire says "Which ones, Tasmonia?"
Fairlight says "in a way of speaking"
Elfquest says "Bramble, Wendy has a great ambition to recolor Kings of the
Broken Wheel."
BerryWhisper says "I could NEVER find a color of book 8 got a color of all the
others in decent but not great shape."
Fairlight says "Wendy, IIRC, once said it was her favorite cycle in terms of how
the art turned out."
Dawncloud has disconnected.
Nightsea says "there are so many styles of communications software. this chat is
great. the one on art might wish to consider something more visual?"
Fairlight says "It seems very apt for colorizing"
Tasmonia says "the ones that someone just sent a link to a couple minutes ago"
Shadows says "I have color of 1-9"
Fairlight says "Strong lines"
Elfquest says "With the plans afoot that we've been working on all day, that
will be announced next week, you should all have all the color volumes you can
eat!"
Fairlight says "Aha! Tidbits!"
Fairlight says "More!"
Traest oooohs. :)
Peacepine says "Oooo!"
Flashfire will even read them first!
Elfquest says "It is better to leave the table hungry, grasshopper."
Fairlight says "Arrrghghgh!"
Fairlight says "Noo! Swine!"
Tsumarin says "hehe"
Cutter wouldn't, couldn't eat them.
BerryWhisper says "Yea!! Want a full color set of all of them."
Northwind says "Question: Will color eds of Dreamtime be available? I'd love to
see Moonshade and Strongbow's dream in color"
tolan thinks that would be a lot of fiber
Flashfire says "That's cruel, leaving the table hungry like that. What'd it ever
do to deserve that?"
Traest has color of 1-9 as well in hardback. Very nice. I'm very protective of
other people reading them. :)
Elfquest says "Northwind, we hope so - that will be a different coloring
process."
Bramble wouldn't eat them, but would devour them in one sitting.
Nightsea says "I have a big EQ appetite. :)"
Tsumarin says "I love the dreamtime GN..."
Coldmist says "Ah, there is one question I have been wanting to answered for so
long ... I am not sure if you can recall, but in the Graphic Novels, when Dart's
band travels to the Forbidden Grove Holt, did Wing travel with them?
(unfortunately I can't say which one it is in. I just know it's when the few
handful of humans attack the Holt, and Dart's band comes to help them)"
Northwind says "Oh, and an interpretation of the dream! I didn't quite
understand it... I know part of it was about Crescent.."
IceFire says "the pics are not mine, 5th row from top: There they are...The
holographic matter projectors mounted in the ceiling,enabling Wendy and Richard
to interact with us and sign our books while they're really in a similar
facility at IBM, back home in Poughkeepsie, NY"
FireHunter eeeeeeeeeeesssss gleefully as he comes back and reads and then does
the "Lurch" sounds from the adam's family
BerryWhisper says "Northwind, you asked a question I have been wondering for a
long time. Thanks."
Shadows says "Sorry I'm late, I just wanted to thank Richard and Wendy Pini for
an awesome series to make the imagination run wild :)"
IceFire says "mine are here http://home.wanadoo.nl/ice-fire/cs-thumb.htm"
Fairlight coughs
Northwind says "Coldmist: That's in the Secret of Two Edge, I think."
Elfquest says "Are you referring to Strongbow and Moonshade's dream?"
Rikkert says "Just like in the old days.. richard hinting at something in the
letter-pages or editorials (which were great btw) and then waiting to see if it
was a red haring or not!"
ElfEmber has disconnected.
Tasmonia says "That part confused me (Strongbow and Moonshade's dream)"
Fairlight says "There's always been a curve to Richard's balls"
Elfquest says "Yes, then I would get ARRGHs through snail mail. Now, it's
instant."
Rayek has arrived.
Nightsea says "ARRGH"
Northwind waves to Rayek. "Heyla, Brownskin!"
Flashfire says "Since we're tossing links around, mine from the 20th Anniversary
are here: http://www.murkworks.net/~wolfy/SanDiego.html"
Cutter waves from Elfmom's lap, "Heya, Black Hair."
Elfquest says "Strongbow and Moonshade's dream was probably the most significant
in Dreamtime. Read it over and over, it's there."
Rayek allos all 'round.
Northwind says "Still on Strongbow and Moonshade's dream: the initial page of
the two of them would make an -awesome- print!"
Tasmonia says "Thanks...I'll read it again"
Peacepine says "The dream is beautiful and sad, at least the way I saw it."
Tasmonia says "I think I was busy drooling over Skot"
ElfEmber has connected.
Peacepine says "*lol!!* Tasmonia!"
Northwind says "Cutter, do I sense some smug rivalry there? *blandly*"
Nightsea says "here's an old but tired question...yellowdog graffics used to
have EQ desktop stuff. eq icons are now in the works at the Scroll of colors..."
Tsumarin says "Ive wondered for a long time what tools were used for the making
of Dream Time? simple graphite?"
Nightsea says "any chance there will ever be more official or commercially
available electronic stuff like that?"
Elfquest says "Nightsea, they were working on some of those things for Warp, but
it never came to completion."
Cutter grins and winks at Northwind, "What's a story without some good rivals in
it?"
Tasmonia says "Me too! I'm very curious (re: Tsu's question)"
Rayek says "Cutter thinks he's cool coz he gets to sit in her lap. *hmph*"
Nightsea says "I realize it's not a top priority. just a cool bunch of pixels"
Kahvi grins at Rayek
Elfquest says "Tsumarin, Wendy says prismacolor pencils grading into aniline dye
tones/markers. (Pre Photoshop days)"
Shadows snorts, "Cutter's used to preferential treatment."
Northwind tsks. "Wolfchief, you've already got Leetah!"
Tsumarin says "thankyou much! *takes a note*"
tolan says "It's good to be the chief""
Peacepine says "Do you ever meet fans on the street, unexpectedly?"
Cutter scooches over, "She loves you, too even if you are bad tempered, sneaky,
underhanded... well, I'll stop there because I can't think of any 'endearing'
qualities and mom always said if I can't say something nice not to say it."
Flashfire says "Can I join ya, Cutter?"
Elfquest says "Peacepine, all the time, and it's always a hoot. More often than
not, however, they're not entirely sure it's us, and that allows us to have
sport with them. :)"
silverrain has connected.
Kahvi thinks if we morph to Chibis, we can all snuggle up
Cutter LOVES Prismacolors!
Tasmonia says "I'm just the gullible type that would fall for that"
Fairlight says "Have you ever seen someone and known, somehow, that they wer
Elfquest fans? Ever had them sport with you? ;)"
Peacepine says "*tsk* *chuckle*"
Rayek clambers into ElfMom's lap. Ha. "Yeah, well, you wouldn't look half as
good without me, short stuff."
Flashfire can just imagine that. "No, no. I'm really Rickard Panini."
Moonwalker has connected.
tolan giggles at EQ Chibis
Elfquest says "Elfmom says quit wriggling, both of you!"
Nightsea says "got stalkers?"
Cutter sits still and settles for glaring at Rayek.
Tsumarin says "hehe nightsea, no jinxing :)"
Flashfire can be still, nooooo problem.
Tsumarin says "not with all the times ive thought about it"
Kahvi tsks and drags herself between Rayek and Cutter
Elfquest says "Nightsea, hey, for all we know, there are few here right now!"
Shadows grins, "What do you guys think of us roleplaying the characters and
such?"
ElfEmber says "Well I am off to bed, I want to thank two moons mush for allowing
today to happen, and to wish Warp a HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! I can't wait to to see
what happens for the 50th! =o)"
Peacepine says "Wendy, do you doodle little sketches sometimes? Like when you're
bored or waiting for something? Just curious, because I do that. :)"
Tasmonia says "Maybe this is a stupid question, but just in case I ever /do/ run
into you guys, what is the correct pronunciation of "Pini"?"
Northwind chuckles. "Elfmom, is that all they're doing? I recently got my hands
on HY9.5. Phew!"
Elfquest says "Shadows, we think it's great!"
Tsumarin says "good night ElfEmber :)"
Cutter says "Come back and play with us sometime, ElfEmber!"
Fairlight says "Tsk tsk. All these canonical characters..... Whatever shall we
do with them?"
Flashfire says "Actually, I think I missed this before. WaRP, how are you two
doing this right now? I'm assuming Richard's the one at the comp.."
ElfEmber says "thank you good night!"
ElfEmber has disconnected.
Elfquest says "Peacepine, Wendy says she's never been a doodler - she goes right
to the finished drawing."
Rikkert says "Just look at the people who are on here the longest. No wait... I
belong to that group. Please ignore, no stalkers here ;-)"
Shadows snorts, "HAH! I've seen the pics of Wendy's doodles in The elfquest
gatherem :)
Elfquest says "Tasmonia, the "i"s are pronounced as long "e"s."
Peacepine says "Wow. :)"
Rayek pulls Cutter's hair. Without wriggling.
Flashfire is just happy you've allowed fans to RP the characters in an
environment like this. Some people are really stuffy about it even if no profit
is being made. I was once playing on a Narnia site and one of Lewis' descendents
pitched a fit, threatened legal action, and it had to be shut down. No fun.
Tasmonia says "muchas gracias"
FireHunter is always on , can walk away and come back adn still be on;)
Elfquest says "Flashfire, Wendy and I are at one computer, I'm on keyboard."
Flashfire ahhs.
FireHunter thinks you should think abooooooooout a hub:)
Nightsea says "hope it's gratifying as well as tiring to "press the flesh"
electronically"
Peacepine says "What do you think of people experiementing with mixing EQ with
other fantasy things, like griffins in fan holts or elves mating with lions
instead of wolves?"
BerryWhisper says "I love ElfQuest roleplaying but I keep with my own original
ElfQuest LIKE characters."
Tsumarin says "it certainly is gratifying on this end :)"
Fairlight says "Well, at the risk of being a troll, I think that Elfquest knocks
the Narnia stealth-indoctrination faff into a cocked hat from every conceivable
angle."
Elfquest says "It's nicer sitting next to each other!"
FireHunter says "but We can't figure out your buttons and find out secrets thta
way!!:P"
Elfquest says "No risk at all..."
Flashfire just hopes he and Cutter aren't too much in the way ;)
Cutter points at Rayek, "And I was nice enough to scoot over and give him some
room."
Rayek awws.
Moonwalker says "If I may, I have a question about the *take a breath* the
movie. Have you considered a production in the vein of "The Dark Crystal",
perhaps even contacting the Jim Henson company in a collaboration?"
Rayek slings an arm around Cutter's (and Kahvi's and Flashfire's) shoulders,
just to prove he can be nice, too.
Elfquest says "Moonwalker, that technology is far too old to consider."
FireHunter loved dark crystal as a kid!!
Flashfire says "Well, Narnia is a different beast than EQ, anyway. Hard to
compare the two."
Fairlight says "Poor Elfmom. How many elves on her lap?"
Kahvi starts purring
Elfquest says "None, now that she's cattle-prodded them off."
Northwind laughs. "An arm around Cutter -and- Kahvi -and- Flashfire? That's not
nice, that's strangulation!"
Flashfire eep. Tazer!
Rayek yipe.
Rayek actually.
Fairlight lol. Fzzt! Fzzt! Smell of fried Rayek and Cutter..
BerryWhisper says "NOOOOO The movie has GOT to be animated. The art needs to be
there . It wouldn't look quite right I don't think if not animated"
Cutter ows at the prodding!
Dix has connected.
Peacepine says "I agree with BerryWhispe"
Tsumarin says "im with BerryWhisper"
Peacepine says "r"
Dix pop.
Nightsea says "yeah. animated movie please."
Flashfire says "With the animation I've seen in stuff like Shrek, Treasure
Planet, and the like, I'm very excited about the EQ movie's possibilities."
Dix oooh, movietalk.
Rayek takes a moment to be serious and says, "Thank you for being supportive of
*us* being fans, Elfquest."
Rikkert says "Yeah, the dark crystal rules. Artwork by Brian Froud (just as on
Labrinth). It's so cool"
Tsumarin says "when i heard about the attempts to make it real life :/.... i
about fainted"
Nightsea says "been waiting for it long enough. ;)"
Moonwalker says "Hmm. I find puppetry timeless. So, the thought never occured to
you two?"
Fairlight says "Hear hear Rayek"
Shadows grins and notes that it's safer hiding in the shadows then sitting on
laps :)
Elfquest says "EVERY thought has occurred to us, believe us."
Dix laughs. "Did you say something about what thought you're using at the
moment?" ;)
Cutter flops down in some nearby pillows and lounges then.
Dix, being late as usual. ;)
Elfquest says "Including that very one."
BerryWhisper says "I heard the same thing Tsumarin, about had a heart attack,
something about kids ridding big dogs. Ugg."
Moonwalker says "Ok. :-) Somehow, I'd just love to have your world that much
more tangable, I suppose."
Tsumarin says "i know, frightening thought"
Tasmonia says "Well, unfortunately I have too go, which is a bummer because the
conversation is much less hectic now. To Wendy: You are truly a goddess and you
inspire me every day. Thank you so much for all you have given us. To Richard: I
have a great deal of respect for you and all the hard work you do and for your
presence in EQ Fandom. To both: Happy 25th Anniversary! Know that all the blood,
sweat, and tears you've put into this for a quarter century has been appreciated
by so many and we are all so grateful. We love you!"
Tsumarin says "good night tasmonia :)"
Nightsea says "speaking of tangibles..any 25th anniversary realia or
memorabilia?"
Elfquest says "Tasmonia, thank you very very much!"
Peacepine says "Ok, now you must read the peom I wrote about the EQ movie when I
was a kid. http://www.elfeyes.com/writings/vicki-rappin.html"
Elfquest says "Nightsea, keep checking the EQ online shop."
Bramble has reconnected.
Shadows grabs a snowball from the holt and pelts Rayek. "Cutter did it!"
Tasmonia says "See you all later--hopefully there will be more chats in the
future! I forgot to mention that I have so much fun with all my fellow fans.
Shade!"
Nightsea says "will do! :)"
Cutter wants to thank you both for creating and breathing life into these
wonderful characters and stories... something that so many storylines are
lacking in these days.
Moonwalker says "What of the Fan Club? It seems rather quiet on that front. I
was hoping for a new pin. <g>"
Goldeye has disconnected.
Tasmonia has disconnected.
Bramble says "And thanks for spending all day chatting with crazy fans. :)"
Elfquest says "We're down the the final half hour - let's make it spectacular!"
Flashfire ain't crazy! ;)
Rayek splutters. The things he has to put up with.
Tsumarin says "Moonwalker, i think the idea of puppetry would be lovely too, Elf
Quest could never look truley bad unless missrepresented, but the EQ art... so
timeless"
Northwind looks thoughtful. "Say. Wasn't one of the ideas for an 25th Anniv
Celebration to see how many howls we could send up at once?"
FireHunter gets the Cake and Icecream!:)
Elfquest says "That was a thought, yes."
Shadows isn't crazy. Just over imaginative and adorable for a scaredy elf.
Elfquest says "Everyone howl right now!"
Flashfire says "Be honest, ElfQuest - you say you've considered all thoughts,
but tell me you didn't consider the one used in that video ;)"
Peacepine says "You may have missed my question in the hubbubb - what do you
think of fans mixing EQ with other fantasy for fun? For instance, one holt I'm
has elves bonded with Griffins"
Nightsea says "I really hope this day isn't the only fan chat we'll see in 2003"
Northwind says ""AAAAAAYYYYYYYOOOOOoOOOOOOooooooooooaaaaah!""
silverrain says "aaaaayyoooooooaaaaahhhhhh"
FireHunter says "AAaaYyYyYYYooOOOOOOAAAAHhhh"
FireHunter says "AAaaYyYyYYYooOOOOOOAAAAHhhh"
Flashfire says "Ayooooooooooooooah!! *coughsputter* Ahem.
AyyyyyyyyooooooooooooooooooooooooOOOOOOooooooOOOOOAaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!"
Peacepine says "Ayoooah!"
Rikkert says "aaayyyyooooooooaaaaahhhhhh"
Elfquest says "We can't heeeeeeeear you... ;)"
Cutter says
"Ayooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhh!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Tsumarin says "Aayoooah!"
BerryWhisper says "AAAAAYYYYOOOOAAAAHHHH!!"
Barb says "Aayooooooooaaaaahhhhhh!"
Kahvi hmmms, and then howls too, "Oooooooooowoooooooooooooooooooooooooo"
tolan says "AAAAAAYYYYYYYYOOOOOOOOOooooooOOOOOaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!"
Moonwalker says "AAhyooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!"
Nightsea says "howls too"
Fairlight says "Is it specifically surprising, I wonder, that so many of us feel
very much a part of Elfquest? Not that Elfquest is a part of our lives, but
rather the sense that we've been gifted something. Itworld amazing not because
of great magics and catastrophe's, but because of how truthfully it depicts the
human condition."
Rikkert howls AAAAAYYYYYYYYOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAHHHHHH
Traest tries desperately to keep the preservers out of it. :)
Elfquest says "Not shabby! :)"
Rayek coughs. "Um. Aroo."
Bramble says
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHAAAAAAA
AAAAA""
Flashfire peers at Rayek. Weak.
Fairlight says "Like any really great lit. But much cuter :)"
Dix uh, ayyyoooommmrrrrow.
FireHunter jabs Rayek!:P
Northwind chortles at Rayek. "Come on, black hair!"
Rayek aeeeyooOOOOOOOOW!
Bramble says "I think need to tickle a howl out of Rayek."
Bramble has partially disconnected.
Moonwalker says "They best fantasy, I feel, is the one that speaks truths in a
way we'd never pay attention to otherwise."
Jadelion says
"AAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
FireHunter groans and of course I must go for a bit have FUN!!!
Flashfire can just see the Preservers now: bigthings make muchnoise! Or
something.
FireHunter idles
Peacepine says "I need to go. My cat is saying "pay attention to me!!!" Thanks
so much for the opportunity to chat! It's always fun talking with you all. *many
hugs*"
Northwind revels in the comradarie. "EQ fans, EQ mom and dad, HAPPY 25th!"
Flashfire says "Take care!"
Tsumarin says "'night Peacepine"
Rikkert says "Flashfire: Just insert the funny letters!"
Nightsea says "be well, Peacepine"
Peacepine says "Happy Anniversary!!!"
Rayek points out the fact that he has Petalwing in his lap. No more jabbing or
we turn it lose. ;)
Fairlight says "Fantasy, comes at you from a strange angle, but hit the same
spot, eh Moon?"
Moonwalker nods
Peacepine says "I definitely hope for another big chat sometime. :)"
Goldeye has connected.
tolan phears the Petalwing
Goldeye has left.
Dix has a Q. Can you/will you discuss the future of the elven race in the
context of their existence on Abode (such as it is, even with few members as in
Jink's time) and other non-original homeworlds? How about the trollish race? Can
you tell us anything about Abode's long-term reaction to these presences?
Elfquest says "We think there will definitely be more such chats."
Goldeye has arrived.
Northwind lifts an eyebrow at Rayek. "We? Not having a Gollum complex are 'we'?"
BerryWhisper says "I just love the EQ is never compleatly black or white."
Northwind cheers at the prospect of more chats.
Peacepine says "(oh sure - ask a super interesting question just as I'm trying
to leave. *lol*)"
Rikkert cheers
Flashfire says "So does Rayek consider Cutter's neck-ring a preciousssss?"
Elfquest says "Dix, all that will be discussed in future stories. There is much
of Futurequest to be done, as well as others."
Dix meant thematically. But that's ok. :)
Northwind laughs.
Kahvi cackles
Malandor has arrived.
Elfquest says "Dix, we can't really separate the theme from the specifics,
without giving too much away - and you KNOW we won't do that!"
Cutter hunches over, covers his neck ring protectively and in a rasping voice
says, "My precciousssss..."
Dix doesn't type good interview questions, especially on the spot. I tried my
best. ;)
Malandor says "Question: Are there presently, or any plans for, stories dealing
with High Ones who went to worlds other than Abode?"
Shadows grins, "I need to find a way to get elfquest out here. This place
doesn't have a single comic book store."
Flashfire eyes Cutter. "Mental, that one. I'm tellin' ya."
Rayek says "Let's face it, gold looks better on me."
Fairlight says "On top of all that, I really like the elves. I like the way they
look, and the great fashions they wear. Amen"
Elfquest says "Dix, that's OK - you put out on heck of a great magazine in
Sendings. :)"
Nightsea says "deeply personal Q:do you consider EQ as a bonding force in your
RL relationship, Wendy and Richard? do you think without it you'd be as close?"
Dix laughs. Thanks. :)
BerryWhisper says "I was thinking the same thing Malandor. People keep stealing
my thoughts. :)"
Moonwalker says "I think I have one more question before I go. I'm infinately
curious of the reasons for not touring. Is it scheduling, financial, dislike of
venues, or a combination?"
Shadows snaps a leash on Cutter's collar, "Sit boy sit!"
Cutter growls at Shadows.
Dix . o O ( Who has TIME to TOUR? )
Northwind blinks in awe at Shadows.
Elfquest says "Nightsea, it's the other way around. It's because we're close
that EQ exists."
Elfquest says "Moonwalker, it's really mostly just time. We're going to be
jammed to the wall this year and next. And next."
Tsumarin says "goosebumps at that"
Moonwalker says "Hmm. If it help ya at all, I could tour on your behalf. :-) I'm
a GREAT speaker. <g>"
Northwind says "All hierarchy within the pack's off today, is it?""
Nightsea says "awwww :)"
Moonwalker says "Witty too. *wink*"
Dix towers over the elves, feeling tallish for the first time. Ever. :)
Cutter gnaws the leash in two.
Flashfire sticks a pin in Dix's shoe, then watches the air rush out. Oops.
Cutter snickers.
Malandor says "Question (since I think it may have been missed first time): Are
there presently, or any plans for, stories dealing with High Ones who went to
worlds other than Abode?"
(New BB message (1/44) posted to 'General' by Natil: Next Idledest: 3/31/03)
tolan giggles
Nightsea says "I have a story like that, Malandor. tehehe"
Dix eeks and falls back onto her couch.
Elfquest says "Malandor, that's been suggested before, but now we have more
opportunity to consider it."
Dix oohs.
Fairlight says "Do you look forward to a day when you can sit back and see the
spirit of Elfquest in the world around you, seeping back out from other people
who could never know you were its inspiration?"
Northwind says "Q: is there any way to save this log in SimpleMU?"
Peacepine has disconnected.
Fairlight says "You know: Ripples"
Fairlight says "Perhaps you already DO see it?"
Moonwalker says "Once again, my break-time is over. Second shift is such a hoot.
Happy Anniversary, Elfquest. Wendy and Richard, simply thank you for everything.
And thank you for those who chatted with me today, I had a great time. Shade and
sweet water."
Elfquest says "Fairlight, that would be a day, indeed."
Tsumarin says "Good day/night Moonwalker :)"
Shadows notes that he's been smacking around Cutter for years. He knows his
place he.....umm....eep. Please don't kill me! ;)
Northwind says "Wendy, the last part of Dreamtime - where you talk to Cutter and
Skywise - is very touching. I think anyone who reads that would want to do
everything they can to help fulfill your dream. =)"
Cutter waves to Moonwalker.
Moonwalker waves good bye to all
BerryWhisper says "Bye Moonwalker"
Dix reread that the other day, Wendy's walk with her elves, and just loved it
all over again. Lots to say in there.
Fairlight says "Tata moon"
Moonwalker has disconnected.
Bramble says "I saw a logo for some non-comic company once that was just like
the warp logo."
Nightsea says "Q: have a favorite "EQ moment"? something that happened in RL
that made you remember EQ or vice versa?"
Elfquest says "Northwind, Wendy says dreams shift and change as dreams will.
I've learned a lot and adapted with the changes."
Flashfire says "Northwind - open a log and have it keep everything from the time
you signed on."
Dix yeah, that happens. We had a martial arts place here that lifted the Warp
logo. They went out of business before I could send their stuff to Richard. Oh
well...
Tsumarin says "karma? hehe"
Flashfire says "Dix: that's called karma."
Tsumarin says ":)"
Flashfire says "Braincell again."
Elfquest says "For us, it was the scene with the fireflies."
Dix laughs. Yes, yes it is!
Cutter loves the fireflies scene.
Dix nudges Cutter, well of course.
Rayek says "Yeah."
Elfquest says "Dix and Tsumarin - not karma at all. Just a large Italian
"family". Heh. Heh. Heh."
Rayek says "That's a beautiful scene."
Kahvi loves the true-peace scene ...
Shadows grins and remembers reading about how upset people were when some of the
more sensual scenes began appearing in the comic.
Flashfire says "QUESTION: What's the strangest EQ sighting you've had? Locally I
saw a place for 'Tam's hairdressing'"
Rikkert says "Bramble: yeah, so did I. Only a week or 2 ago. at the time i
thought: I must remember this. But i didn't. So i'll proberbly be thinking about
it for the next 2 days and then give it up. It was on the internet though"
Dix cackles at Elfquest.
Nightsea says "already knew about that one. did it ever happen again? not the
scene specifically...another one"
Elfquest says "For us, it was Cutter painted onto a roller coaster in a Munich
amusement park."
Flashfire says "Sweet."
Dix ...oh my.
Rayek laughs.
Dix hopes you took a picture.
Tsumarin says "That tells makes me think.... Wendy and Richard, one thing that i
appreciate alot is your willingness to open up to your readers.. such personal
stuff that I, as a writer and artist have difficulty doing... it really brings
your fans closer, in a special way..."
Elfquest says "We were sent a picture."
tolan says "Oh, we have a Bearclaw's Bar & Grill out here :)"
Elfquest says "Tsumarin, when it's in there and it has to come out, there's no
stopping it."
Fairlight says "For me, seeing pictures of elves graffitied on a wall in
Brighton, England. Ten years after the fact, an almost-faded image that is the
nearest I've ever personally got to understanding what the fandom was like in
the early 1980s"
Fairlight says "I wish I"
Fairlight says "Id had a camera"
Elfquest says "Skywise and Cutter also made a very strange guest appearance in
two episodes of the cartoon "The Mighty Ducks"!"
Nightsea says "awww too bad you didn't ride that coaster."
Tsumarin says "omg really?"
Fairlight says "The mighty ducks? what's that?"
Traest hehehes. "A cartoon."
Cutter has never heard of that cartoon.
Traest's seen it a few times, but not the Skywise/Cutter episodes.
Neko says "Disney made it"
Tsumarin says "Mighty Ducks, the only thing i know of it is the movie"
Nightsea says "tv cartoon or in print?"
Elfquest says "TV cartoon"
Flashfire says "Disney cartoon based on the movies - a kid's hockey team.
Coached by Emilio Estevez. Turned into an NHL franchise in Ahaheim"
BerryWhisper says "I remember the cartoon but didn't watch too much , never saw
THOSE episodes."
Dix snerks. And now,
Neko says "hockey team of real ducks made to help promote their team."
Dix snerks. And now, the Mighty Duckriders...
Fairlight says "How did C and S turn up in it?"
Cutter says "Wow.. a cameo.."
Windrider says "Tell us about the strange appearances."
Elfquest says "Joe Barruso, who used to be Wendy's assistant, was the director
on the series - it was a tip o' the hat."
Cutter says "That's very cool."
Nightsea says "has Wendy ever been tempted to leave EQ in favor of other gigs?"
Flashfire recalls from reading the Gatherum and such that WaRP have appeared in
Marvel Comics a couple times, and..wasn't it Skywise who was drawn in as a
balloon in the Thanksgiving Parade? That's kind of neat, having worked it a
couple times myself.
Nightsea says "not that I ever wish she would, of course"
Elfquest says "It was a fantasy episode. Cutter was a small green elf eating
cereal, and Skywise was a tall elf who helped the ducks out. Don't ask for more
detail, it's too weird!"
Goldeye says "lol"
Flashfire says "How strange."
Elfquest says "Nightsea, she did the Beauty and the Beast graphic novels, and
odds and ends for other comics companies."
Rayek says "Small. Green. *snigger*"
Fairlight says "Were the voices good? heheh"
Bramble files that away to tweak cutter with at a later date.
Nightsea says "I meant more along the lines of doing tv work, or other media"
Cutter pokes Rayek.
Tsumarin says "those beaty and the beast novels looked gorgeous, even though i
never found any"
Cutter says "You didn't get a cameo."
Northwind says "The spoofy eds of Worldpool where Cutter's pink... I think that
would work better with color instead of black and white... *wry*"
Dix can't imagine Wendy giving up on EQ, but she does lots of other goodies from
time to time.
Elfquest says "Nightsea, tempted? Sure. But she says she's a loyal elfmom."
Dix laughs.
Rayek can handle not being small and green. You take your fifteen minutes,
shorty. ;)
Cutter says "And we're certainly grateful for that."
Nightsea says "WHEW. and Hurray!"
Northwind says "but my brother (he's 13) loves 'em! And the Star WarPs ones. =)"
Dix says "And wolfmom, trollmom, preservermom, humanmom,
wriggly-things-with-green-scalesmom..."
Elfquest says "There have been numerous homages, parodies, etc. of EQ out there.
Almost without exception, we've enjoyed them."
Fairlight says "Have you enjoyed talking at such expanded length with us lot?""
Coldmist has the two Beauty and Beast comics ... took me half a world to find
them
Fairlight says "Uh oh. "Almost" without exception?"
Elfquest says "Mostly... ;)"
Traest chuckles. "Have they actually run dry?"
Shadows says "They loved talking to everyone but Rayek. He's being mean ;)"
Fairlight says "I've never looked at a comic other than EQ. I've spoke to others
who are similarly comic-illiterate."
Elfquest says "One can tell when the end is near - everyone gets quiet."
Tsumarin says "its sad hehe"
Shadows says "I rescued some of the original elfquest comics from a comic book
store after the flood in Fort Collins Colorado"
Nightsea says "I enjoy all of Wendy's art, actually...but EQ can't be done as
well by others and I hope she never tires of it"
Northwind says "Or it's just a pause for breath. =)"
Rayek is not being mean to Mom and Dad. He hopes.
Dix has been hilariously quiet, she thinks. For herself, anyway.
Elfquest says "Or, as they say in bars, 'You don't have to go home but you can't
stay here.' :)"
Flashfire says "It kind of seems like the main questions have been asked, yeah."
Srian has connected.
Fairlight says "IN fact, I often felt a certain hostility to elfquest from
"comic people" especially owners of comic shops, one of whom seemed to have
serious personal issues with its very existence. Why is this? Is it just me?"
Rikkert says "It's not sad, it's said LOL"
Flashfire says "Closing Time - Semisonic ;)"
BerryWhisper says "Wow Shadows, I'm in Denver, Would have drove up there if I
knew."
Dix objects to Elfquest's nondesc. :)
Bramble says "I read a few other comics, but since I started reading EQ from the
graphic novels, I only had occasion to go into a comic store when Hidden Years
came out. And bout HY 1-3 at a con, and ran around town trying to find #4,
because I had no clue there'd be new stories."
Northwind mutters, "Flashfire.... I think I know that song..."
Elfquest says "Fairlight, we've experienced that for 25 years. With EQ you
either 'get it' or you don't."
silverrain says "my comic book dealer loves eq. He's met warp a few times"
Kahvi says "Some Comic Shop owners are weird ..."
Dix looks at Kahvi. Some?
Bramble says "My comics reading, D&D playing friends, though EQ elves were too
perfect."
Flashfire says "It's kind of funny. The very first day I even heard about EQ was
the day of its 20th Anniversary. That's timing."
Shadows grins, "My comic book shop in colorado carried the Elfquest CD and alot
of the other memorbilia like the phone card and the pins
Northwind can't comprehend anyone not liking EQ.
Kahvi grins
Rayek actually heard someone pushing Elfquest as a great comic to read if you
are comic clueless and trying to get into them as an adult, just last weekend.
It was very cool.
Shadows wonders what you guys thought of the elfquest music?
Fairlight says "Do you think there's a lot of jealousy because you were not only
different, but you were independent and quite obviously extraordinarily talented
and good at what you did, whether they got it or not?"
Northwind says "CD? Oh you mean the filks!"
Nightsea says "there was a phone card?"
Elfquest says "With the plans we've got for 2003 and beyond, we hope many many
more people will be introduced to EQ."
Srian sneaks in, and notes how hard it's been for her, in Ontario, to find
anything EQ.
Tsumarin says "thats what i was about to say Northwind hehe... everyone ive ever
shown it to has become an instant fan... maybe my friends just have good taste"
Dix says "Actually, a series of phone cards. Four, perhaps?"
tolan bouncies happy circles around you both! -bouncy- -bouncy- -bouncy-
-bouncy- -bouncy- -bouncy- -bouncy- -bounce!!- @WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! 8D
Flashfire says "Hey - how about EQ check designs? ;)"
Shadows says "I have the one with Skywise looking out at the stars"
Bramble says "Or an EQ credit card design. :)"
Dix says "Or an EQ elf in space. Oh wait, you did that already."
tolan says "Four phone cards that i remember. Actually managed to find 3 of
them"
Nightsea says "more more more....we just want more"
Traest thinks mixing "Live In The Now" with credit cards may not be a great
idea. :)
Northwind says "EQ, we'll definitely do our part in spreading the word! Won't
we? =) (My friends and colleagues certainly know. EQ, EQ EQ, that's all that
comes out of my mouth anymore these days. *wry*)"
Dix laughs!
Shadows snickers, "Elfquest credit card.....The only thing scarier then the
trolls on the front is the interest rate?
Flashfire says "Talk about maxed out accounts"
Tsumarin says "haha, you could put EQ on everything i own and id be happy"
Fairlight says "As time's nearly up, I'd like to wish Wendy and Richard another
25 years of success and happyness! And many thanks for the first 25 - you've
changed a million lives."
Tsumarin says "ditto :)"
gtree has connected.
silverrain says "Thank you WARP for everything"
Northwind says "EQ barbie dolls? *eep!* What would Matel do to 'em? Now, that's
a scary thought!"
Nightsea says "I hope your merchandizing contracts say you keep the $$...cause
after the movie sales should skyrocket"
Barb says "Amen to that. Many many thanks for all the pleasure you've given."
Srian pokes Trae and grins, "Just adds "Spend in the Now" to life. ;)
Flashfire icks at Northwind ;)
Elfquest says "We're very grateful to everyone who's read and who will read EQ,
and who 'gets it', and espeically to the Two Moons folks for letting us run
rampant all over their MUSH!"
tolan says "Yes, thankyou for everything :)"
Rikkert says "Yes. Thanks you two. And extend my thanks to all the people who
work(ed) with you!"
Dix fuzzles the EQ persona. Affectionately. But respectfully. ;)
Flashfire says "It was very fun to spend a day with you both. Very cool idea."
Bramble says "Lets not wait 25 years to do this again. :)"
Shadows chuckles, "What did you guys think when you first heard of the elfquest
mush?"
Nightsea says "*claps for Two Moons, WARP, and all us fans* great chat!"
silverrain says "Clear Paths and Warm Skies To You All"
Elfquest says "One... more... time... AYYYYYYYYYOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAHHHHH!"
Srian says "you're quite welcome, EQ. Can't speak for the rest of teh team, but
I know that I'm glad we could help out."
Cutter says
"AYyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyoooooooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
!!!!!"
tolan says "AYYYYYOOOOOOAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!"
Tsumarin says "i remember years ago... years and years.. when i couldnt find an
address to even write my one piece of fanmail.... little did i know id be
"speaking" with you one day"
Bramble says
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
BerryWhisper hugs everybody.
Windrider says "AYYYYYOOOOOOOAAAHHHH!!"
Tsumarin says "Aayooah!"
silverrain says "AAAAAAYYYYYYYOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH"
Kahvi coughs,
"Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooowooooooooooooooo
oooooooooooooooooooooooowooooooooooooo"
Dix blushes furiously. Um. "AyhoooooooooOOOOOOOOOrrrm!"
Flashfire clears his throat and lets out with a big'un.
"AYYYYooooooooooOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooaaahhhhhhhhhhhh!! Wolf. Rar.
Fairlight says "Ahyuhah!""
Traest chuckles. "Quite welcome Elfquest, and thanks for the 25 years of
Elfquest!"
Nightsea says "AYYYOOOOOOAHHHHH"
Shadows steps on Rayek's foot to help inspire him "Aaaaayooooahhhhhh!"
Jadelion says "AAAAAAYYYYYYYYOOOOOOAAAAAAHHHHHHH"
Rikkert howls AAAYYYYYYYYYYYOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!
Goldeye says
"AAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH
HHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!""
Barbtoo teary to howl. chokes a bit.
Northwind throws back her head, the wolf within her roar:
AAAAAAAAOOOOOOOOOOOOOYYYYAAaaaa
BerryWhisper says "Ayyyyyyooooaaahhhhh!!"
Dix fuzzles Barb! *snif*
The preservers will not be contained this time, and sing! "BREE-DREE-DEE!"
IceFire says "AAYYYYYYYYYYYOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!"
Elfquest has disconnected.
