...Plot, are you taking my idea and making it less lewd?

Plotvitalnpc

I was turning it into a joke about low elven birthrates in stereotypical fantasy. (Fucking Tolkien...)

Ghost: Yeah, it's like, everyone can see her collar! And it's not even covering her whole neck! What a hussy.

Plotvitalnpc

In actuality, I hate those portrayals of elves.

MadKeyboard

Screw Prude Elves, Dark Eldar (wothout their Torture Fetish) and Wood Elves is where it's at!

I actually like the palm of the hand as a second major erogenous zone for elves. Ed Greenwood (of all people) wrote a decent scene involving that, and I read it at a young age, so...

MadKeyboard

Mutual Orgasm through Handjob.

That's a new one.

pepperjack

It was more of a hand-kissing thing in the actual scene I was thinking of, but of course QQ takes it straight to handholding.

(Hell, immediately after posting, *I* took it straight to handholding. It's like I couldn't help it.)

...which actually has some implications about the kind of looks you'll get from elves if you walk around in public holding hands.

Plotvitalnpc

It is traditional for elves to grasp things with only their fingers, for to hold something in the palm of their hand is to be lewd. This is why we can't have elves anymore.

Plotvitalnpc

Maybe the sides of their fingers, and the bit of skin between the knuckles, though. Laced fingers are the really lewd part of handholding. This is why elves don't use crossbows - triggers are too lewd!

pepperjack

Dang it, Plot!

Actually, I was thinking that while the nape of the neck would be treated analogously to the tits (or other human naughty areas), the palm would be more like the mouth. Yes, it can be used lewdly, but it sees way too much use in daily life for any kind of covering-taboo to have formed in any but the most radically prudish elven societies.

Though, similarly to how a human needs to be careful how he eats a banana or a popsicle in public, there are definitely things an elf can do with their hands -- even "innocently" -- that would have erotic effect on onlookers.

...I mean, other than the obvious things that would get even humans going.

Plotvitalnpc

And the bellybutton is equivalent to the genitals. Elves guard their navels more fiercely than even their necks.
?

Anyways, just trying to be a very silly NPC right now. Because this is a silly convo.

pepperjack

Heh. Elven clapping is *definitely* done with only the fingers.

Plotvitalnpc

Is it one handed then - The five fingers against the thumb? Or do they slap the knuckles of one hand's fingers with the fronts of the others?
The latter is more audible.

pepperjack

I like the second one, mostly because it's prissy enough to amuse me without being too alien. The main thing is to avoid smacking your palm in public like some sort of pervert.

Edit: I was actually thinking fronts of fingers on fronts of fingers. Smacking the knuckles looks weirdly aggressive to me somehow.

MadKeyboard

>Elf see's normal human clapping

Mine is the most malicious of giggles.

By the way, this is the post that got me thinking of this, in case anyone was curious:

...wouldn't that mean the only mandatory piece of Elf Clothing would be, like, a scarf?

theunderbolt

Too obvious.
