No one had warned them. Someone should have -- they all agreed as they stared at each other around the scuffed and dented table.
Billy piped up "it's no that I'm a prood or such. But ma god!"
Sean A. wearily shook his head, "I think it's dangerous. What are the security issues? Someone could get hurt. I didn't sign up for this."
Elijah lifted his enormous doll like crystal blue eyes, his voice quavering slightly "I just turned 18 for Christ's sake! What were they thinking?"
Dom rubbed 'Lij's tender back in sympathy and bit his 18th apple of the day.
The rain dripped steadily outside their cover onto the midge and no-see-um infested swamp they were being forced rather sadistically to film in.
"Ai-eee-yah!" A wild cry accompanied a completely naked crazy man as he leapt into a huge mud puddle. Dancing around in the squishy mud as if a high priest at the altar of Eros, he flung his mop of dark hair back and lifted his arms up to the sky, pink tongue seeking out raindrops as they fell.
Squirming, the four hobbits huddled closer to each other, their eyes unwillingly drawn to the rather impressive and completely daunting display standing in oblivious glee before them.
A sudden bang drew a loud girly shriek from Billy. An amused voice called out from the nearby trailer. "Vig! Quit scaring the hobbits. Get your bum back in here."
Stomping happily in the mud, Viggo yelled back "I like it out here. As Joseph Campbell says I'm finding my bliss place.......(the next five minutes are filled with rambling, mumbling discourse that no one understands)"
"Viggo, don't make me come out there. Now get your arse in here!"
"Sean, you're just no fun today!"
"Quit yer whinging. Just 'cuz I'm smart enough to come in out of the rain doesn't make me a prig. C'mon, now. Got some hot water all ready for that mate shite you like so much."
Laughing madly, their sleekly naked King instead flicked his tongue out and taunted "Come and get me!" as he bounded off like an antelope expecting to find a lion in the bush.
Wearily Bean joined the 4 miserable hobbits as they shivered in their wet woolen capes (except for Dom who had as usual removed his).
"Christ! They should have warned us." They all nodded.
"The crazy I can take, bare bummed Aragorn every day is just a little too hard."
"Especially when he's nekkid and still carrying his sword."
Glumly they all nodded once more.
"Why doesna Pete do somethin'?"
They all stared over at the crew and Peter who were busy moving cameras and setting up for the next shot. "I don't think he even notices. The crew thinks it's funny, the make-up girls love it."
Forlorn, they all stare at Sean who is wearing his favorite Blades scarf (despite it being off season).
Elijah's perfectly formed bottom lip quivers as he nearly sobs "Bean, you have to do something. As a man of Gondor, you need to control your King."
Resolute they all nod and look as stern as possible in 70's style shag wigs. Billy even manage to avoid giving his bangs a swish.
Sighing deeply, Sean grumbled "For Gondor..."
Moments later, a roar and then a hoarse yelp signaled the return of a now damp soldier with a bare arsed ranger slung over his shoulder. No one even looked over as Sean marched into the trailer.
Soon, the trailer sung with a familiar 'squee, squee, squee' followed by a raspy bellow "For Gondor!"
***The end :-)
