Hi Queenie!

A/N: A response to the Lois Elfs Herself challenge. I hope y'all enjoy
Ah, yes. [Linked Image] Although, given the adorable Nell/Eric Christmas Elf scene in NCIS LA a couple of years ago, Lois as a Christmas Elf…especially considering her appreciation of the holiday. I wonder if Mxy could help with that… [Linked Image]

But I digress…

Quote
Lois ducked behind a vending machine before Clark could see her. This was not good, not good at all!
Is she an actual elf?

Quote
Unfortunately, the mouth of the hallway was blocked by a group of orcs.
Is this a modern day LotR? Maybe the males are Orcs and the females are Elfs and they’re all now living in modern day Metropolis?

Quote
She dashed down the hallway and towards the bathrooms, only to find herself at the end of a long line of elf-maidens that included at least three other Arwens.
Ah, yes. Movies or some such. Wait, *other* Arwens?

Quote
or at the obvious lack of creativity among her fellow cosplayers.
She does see the irony, doesn’t she?

Quote
Unfortunately, Clark had already detected her and was moving towards her like a guided missile.
Maybe if she stopped her homing ticker?
CLARK: shock

Quote
when he successfully navigated past a troll and four hobbits and came to stand beside her.
clap Great flair!

Quote
Clark, of course, wasn't in a costume.
Not a comic convention, then?

Quote
Clark was dressed for work
Wouldn’t that be awkward, if he had shown up as Batman?

Quote
Of course, it was also possible that Clark “Human Interest” Kent had simply volunteered.
Could have been worse. Could have been Ralph.

Quote
His eyebrows rose. “Really? I thought you were off work, today.”

“That's only a cover-story,” she replied.
She’s trying to uncover the man behind the plot to consolidate power under the rule of the One Ring.
CLARK: How did she find out that I was going to propose?

Quote
She glanced around, frantically. “A ring...of...jewelry thieves?” She blushed hotly, even as the words left her mouth.

Clark nodded, knowingly. “Ah, yes,” he said. “I hear there's a really important ring that's been missing for a while, now.”
See?
LOIS: [Linked Image]

Quote
Lois sighed. “Fine,” she snapped, “I'm here because I'm a Tolkien fan, okay?”
clap

Quote
“Go ahead,” she sighed. “Mock me. The great Lois Lane spending her time off wearing a costume—I'm sure you must find it hilarious.”
To be fair, I’m sure he much more enjoyed her chicken outfit. Or the Princess Jasmine one.

Quote
His smile vanished. “Er, no,” he stammered. “Wearing a costume isn't
rotflol

Quote
Now it was his turn to blush, and Lois found herself wondering what her partner must get up to in *his* free time.
Has to do with wearing tights and underwear for all the world to see.

Quote
“So,” he said quickly, “you're dressed as an elf?”

“Arwen Undomiel,” she corrected. “Lady of Rivendell and Queen of the Reunited Kingdom, daughter of Elrond and Celebrian, granddaughter of Galadriel.” Clark fell silent, and she felt her blush returning.
jawdrop

Quote
“Oh, please,” Lois grumbled. “Eowyn was a just a would-be home-wrecker.”

“She didn't know that Aragorn was already taken,” Clark pointed out.
laugh
MAYSON: What? Why are you guys looking at me like that?

Quote
“Aragorn was a great guy, a hero, and a long-lost king. He could've had any woman he wanted, and Eowyn was practically throwing herself at him, but he kept faith with Arwen, because he loved her.”
CLARK: [Linked Image]

Quote
“When Arwen made him that banner, it gave him the courage and strength he needed, so he could do what he had to do—because he knew she was in his corner.” She sighed again.
You certainly had a lot of fun with that one, Mary! Works great clap

Quote
Clark looked strangely thoughtful. “They were from two different worlds, weren't they?” he asked. “I mean, she was an elf, and he was human—she had to give up a lot in order to be with him.”
Should I just quote the entire rest with a LnC sticker on it? wink

Quote
In real life, love is just that happy feeling you get right before the wreck happens.”
LEX: blush

Quote
Clark swallowed. “I was just thinking,” he began. “They have these conventions every year, right? Maybe—maybe next time, I could come with you?”
Aragorn?

Quote
He smiled sheepishly at her. “Maybe Aragorn?” he suggested.
See?

Quote
“since you haven't started pointing and laughing at this elf-princess get-up,
To be fair, it’s mostly a green hoodie, isn’t it?

Quote
I could go for some Onion Rings of Power and a Misty Mountain-Dew.”
laugh

Quote
He seemed to light up at that. “I will take you to the onion rings,” he said as she slipped her hand into the crook of his arm. “Though, I do not know the way.”
confused I thought Aragorn was a Ranger? Shouldn’t he be wise to the ways of the world?
LOIS: That’s why he’s a Hobbit.

Great fun!
