BioSothis is an idiot. Likes old things. Like books. Therefore like old books. And wonderfully gentle male vocals.
Orodreth likes to read. Orodreth likes to consume huge amounts of butter everyday. Orodreth likes my CD player. Orodreth likes to trade on being noble and nice. Orodreth likes to piss off mortals occasionally. Orodreth likes Freud. Orodreth is insecure. Orodreth loves Elentirmo. Orodreth believes that every elf is equal. Orodreth is very...Orodreth.
Daeron is touchy. Daeron sings nicely but that, I suppose, is a known fact. Daeron is disturbed. Daeron is too sad. Daeron likes mint cakes. Daeron is complicated. Daeron can play any instrument on earth(or beyond). Daeron believes that a dead elf is better than a sad elf, though the dead be sadder still. Daeron is insane. Daeron is occasionally Out-Of-Character. Daeron can be bloodthirsty. Daeron appears in Gondolin for unknown reasons.

A precious, mouldering pleasure 't is
To meet an antique book,
In just the dress his century wore;
A privilege, I think,
His venerable hand to take,
And warming in our own,
A passage back, or two, to make
To times when he was young.
His quaint opinions to inspect,
His knowledge to unfold
On what concerns our mutual mind,
The literature of old;
What interested scholars most,
What competitions ran
When Plato was a certainty,
And Sophocles a man;
When Sappho was a living girl,
And Beatrice wore
The gown that Dante deified.
Facts centuries before,
He traverses familiar,
As one should come to town
And tell you all your dreams were true:
He lived where dreams were sown.
His presence is enchantment,
You beg him not to go;
Old volumes shake their vellum heads
And tantalize, just so.
- In A Library, Emily Dickinson
獨立蒼茫每悵然 恩仇一例付雲煙 斷鴻零雁剩殘篇
莫道萍蹤隨逝水 永存俠影在心田 此中心事倩誰傳？
