Why you should never give an elf a Vuvuzela, a treatise

[bythewaves]

Who: Maglor and all of you
Broadcast: Yes
Action: Huntress
When: Right Now

[ The gift basket got a curious look, and Maglor fished idly through it before uncovering some odd instruments.

Which he tries.

So sorry, everyone on the Huntress, you just got disturbed by the most annoying sound in the world

Later on, he'll also try some of the other instruments, which will lead to the whole Fleet being "treated" to ... well something rather unexpected from an elf ]

As he deserved. (He chuckles softly.) Perhaps even now he keeps Tyelko company, bounding through the Halls.

[ Maglor hums happily at the thought ]

That would make him happy - he was hurt so badly when Huan left him.

(Action)

[castintoflames]

I can think of no beast more forgiving than dogs, can you? (Once their brother learned his error, Huan would return.) They must be together.

I hope so. I really hope so. It will be the best healing we could ask for.

(Action)

[castintoflames]

Unsought kindness is everywhere, I've found.

(Action)

[bythewaves]

Let us hope it is so in Mandos, as well.

(Action)

[castintoflames]

Most of all there! Souls need it.

(Action)

[bythewaves]

That is true - and us perhaps more than others.

(Action)

[castintoflames]

The cursed...

The tortured...

Lord Námo knows pity.

(Action)

[bythewaves]

Little pity, he promised, but little is not none.

[ He nods ]

(Action)

[castintoflames]

What is little to one is much to another. We have been brought low enough to appreciate the smallest of gestures.

I am so glad it is the Halls and not the Dark to which our brothers were gathered! At least they are safe and have a chance to heal. That is mercy and kindness both.

[castintoflames]

I have hope they will be reborn in Valinor once they have paid their dues. Lord Námo will see to their peace, I trust. Our brothers are beautiful and kind.

I hope for that too. Amil deserves to have her family again.

(Action)

[castintoflames]

She will be surrounded by her sons and teach them better ways.

(Action)

[bythewaves]

[ He shuts his eyes and sighs ]

A happy home. The one we used to have, once upon a time. They will have it again.

(Action)

[castintoflames]

And we can have it - to some degree - here, can we not? (He is not Nerdanel, but love is there.)

(Action)

[bythewaves]

[ He breathes softly and then nods ]

I have you, and I have Finno. [ He says it softly, as if to remind himself ]

Yes.

(Action)

[castintoflames]

I will be sleeping at your side tonight. (Just so he knows. Maedhros rests his cheek on Maglor's shoulder.)

(Action)

[bythewaves]

[ Maglor hums in soft acknowledgement ]

I would like that.

[ He says shyly ]

Just like when we were younger.

(Action)

[castintoflames]

(He smiles softly and embraces Maglor with one arm.)

You do not kick nearly as much as Tyelko.

Re: (Action)

[bythewaves]

I also wake up later. [ Maglor remembers with a laugh ]

Much, much later.

(Action)

[castintoflames]

A fact I cherish some mornings. (When the nights are hard and sleep does not come so easily.)

(Action)

[bythewaves]

Do you remember how he would bounce on the bed and demand we get up?

(Action)

[castintoflames]

How can I forget? (He had risen, hair a mess and carried the munchkin down to breakfast.) I looked a sight each morning!
