      I think it's up to the Lord of Imladris to institute bans on substances. Knowing the current LoI, I'd say probably yes. Along with rose tea.

      Yes, I'd love one, but I have enough pets. Besides, there's no real place around here to practice falconry. I don't think it would be fair.

      I suppose if he'd let you. They're Ethereal so they generally only affect Ethereal things (for instance, they don't burn the floor), but I suppose he could adjust them if he wanted to so you could roast marshmallows. I don't think he'd be too amused though. Unless you shared. You'd share with him, right?

      For this you'll want a good, strong, smoky tea. I'd recommend lapsang souchong or Russian Caravan tea. A good English Breakfast will do in a pinch.

      While I don't condone putting your yarn to that kind of use (you really want to treat your fiber that way?), if you're going to knit such a thing, you'll want a thick, heavy yarn capable of load-bearing. I'd recommend 100% wool, 10-12 ply. You definitely want a worsted weight or higher. The tweedy yarns tend to unravel, and bamboo is just too expensive. Stay away from the silks. They pill.

      What is this? Sophie's Choice? If I had to choose...I'd suck it up and sacrifice my yarn. I can't live without tea.

      Excellent question, Someone! The best tea to drink post-violence is something soothing, preferably with a green tea base. Jasmine green is especially nice after a hard day's knitting. If you like chamomile, that might be nice, but be warned it may cause drowsiness.
