Who: Maedhros & YOU
Broadcast: Fleet-Wide.
Action: Open to HS Marsiva.
When: Morning.

(Marsiva's hospitality cannot erase what Maedhros has endured. He is dressed cleanly and his hair is braided neatly and away from his face. Even his burns have been healed with minimal scarring. But there is something untamed in his eyes.

Something that burns like a hungry, desperate fire.)

...why? (His low voice resonates clearly, cutting through the air with ease. He needn't ever shout.) Surely these quarters are not located within the Halls of Mandos?

(He feels life flowing within him and it is wrong. Lifting his only fist, he hits the nearest wall, clenching his teeth.)

Do not trap my fëa. Arda is safer with me dead.

Depending on what else you brought me~

[ SO INNOCENT ]

[castintoflames]

So it is all about bribery! (He tuts.)

[bythewaves]

[ THE MOST INNOCENT ]

Maybe.

video

[castintoflames]

I never knew Kano was so shameless. (Very large sigh.)

video

[bythewaves]

[ Shameless grin ]

You started it~

video

[castintoflames]

I did, didn't I? (And he is proud of that fact.)

video

[bythewaves]

You did. [ Best big brother ]

video

[castintoflames]

I will not apologize.

video

[bythewaves]

Nor will I. But we will be together again soon.

video

[castintoflames]

We will see if I let you go.

video

[bythewaves]

You assume that I would let you go.

video

[castintoflames]

Hold onto me as long as you like. I won't complain.

video

[bythewaves]

Nor I. I missed you so...

video

[castintoflames]

Then I will claim you for a day or so. I must convince you I am real.

video

[bythewaves]

I would stay by your side full willing without any prompting, Nelyo. Just so long as you are here.

video

[castintoflames]

I will not keep you from your life here. I only wish to see you as often as possible. (He grins at how the two statements conflict.)

[bythewaves]

[ He gets a fond huff in return ]

You are always welcome to accompany me, Nelyo, although at the moment all I am doing is learning how the tools here work!

video

[castintoflames]

I must do that myself. (And a gun is lifted. He is holding it entirely wrong.)

video

[bythewaves]

[ Squints ]

Is that how you are supposed to be holding it?

video

[castintoflames]

I - (He shifts it, a few images filling his mind, until it is properly positioned.) It should be like this, I think.

[ Maglor watches curiously ]

Hm. It looks almost like some strange crossbow. I wonder if there are facilities where you can practice?

video

[castintoflames]

There should be such a space. How else can I be expected to aim properly in times of conflict? (But navigating ships isn't easy or comfortable.)

video

[bythewaves]

Not on the Marsiva, but surely on the other ships. [ Maglor nods, agreeing ] I am sure you will master it as swiftly as you may.

video

[castintoflames]

I wonder if I...should?

video

[bythewaves]

[ Maglor pauses for a long time, and his answer is slow in coming ]

That... I cannot say, if it will be for the better, or the worse. But we have no weapons here save those we are granted, or those we purchase or fashion on our own. What things there are here are unfamiliar, and it seems to me that ... it would be useful to at the least be familiar with their workings.
