I hate everyone fighting.

Elves and Men have always gotten along well, in my experience.

Why all the hate?

[Filtered to Idril]

I love you. I just wanted to say that.

	I know it. Every day I believe it, even when you make me angry. I could never hate Men. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Nor could I hate elves. We are brethren. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I am unsure. I do not want him reading these things from people. He should not be ashamed of who or what he is. He would hear no such hatred in Gondolin. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Too smart for his own good. [...] Tuor. He gives up his life to save a world of Men and Elves. How can they hate us when we are so much a part of him? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

It's an extremely long story. One that no one seems to care about. But the people who lived it.

Regardless, I have no quarrel with you. I know we've had our moments of bumping heads. But I want you and your wife to know that no matter what passes, no matter what happens, you, she and your son will always be welcomed here in the city. And in the pub.

I even think I've perfected something she might like. Or something I hope she would.

	I do not have a conflict with you, either. What is that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	maryanne_walker 2013-06-25 06:35 pm UTC (link)
	A vegetable version of a burger. I used Dean as a guinea pig, and he likes them, so I'm hoping she would. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tuor 2013-06-25 11:15 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, I'll have to bring her down sometime to see if she likes it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	maryanne_walker 2013-06-26 02:41 am UTC (link)
	I know you two probably enjoy your boy's nights, but I figure it wouldn't hurt to cater to Mom too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tuor 2013-06-26 03:15 am UTC (link)
	Yeah, and she's pretty appalled by the idea of meat. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	maryanne_walker 2013-06-26 04:58 am UTC (link)
	Of eating it herself, or just eating it in general? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tuor 2013-06-26 06:36 am UTC (link)
	Of eating it in general, I think, although she permits me to eat it if I must. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	maryanne_walker 2013-06-26 07:28 pm UTC (link)
	There are humans like that in my world. They even hold protest rallies for the humans that eat meat. My Veggie burger doesn't have a scrap of meat in it though. That was Dean's only complaint. No bacon. Does she like cheese? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tuor 2013-06-26 11:04 pm UTC (link)
	At times she does, yes. Depends on her mood. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	maryanne_walker 2013-06-27 03:22 am UTC (link)
	Alright, I'll premake some with and some without. So there's variety. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	thehalfelven 2013-06-25 07:00 am UTC (link)
	Misunderstandings, I think. Even far unto the Third Age where Elves are leaving Middle-earth there is still friendship among the people. But I wish to speak to you of a matter, concerning your son. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	tuor 2013-06-25 12:50 pm UTC (link)
	I am truly glad to hear it is so. I thought that there would be a friendship between the kindreds for as long as we existed together. My son? Of course, speak. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thehalfelven 2013-06-25 01:43 pm UTC (link)
	Aye. I am the half elven, descended through your line and I believe if I might speak to your son about being half elven I could offer him some comfort. I remember the years of doubt I lived, (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tuor 2013-06-25 11:11 pm UTC (link)
	I do not mind if you speak to him, but you might like to speak to his mother first. And remember, he is only four years old. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thehalfelven 2013-06-26 12:46 am UTC (link)
	Yes, of course. Children often have marvelous insights, I think. They're observant. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tuor 2013-06-26 03:22 am UTC (link)
	Yes, my son is very observant. Would you like to meet us for dinner tomorrow? The two of us are going down to the pub to get some of Maryanne's cheeseburgers. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	thehalfelven 2013-06-26 04:07 am UTC (link)
	Ah, no. Another time, perhaps, I shall let you have your evening. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	tuor 2013-06-26 06:42 am UTC (link)
	Ah yes, then. Another time. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I have nothing against the Elves, I've always gotten along with the Fae. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	tuor 2013-06-25 12:55 pm UTC (link)
	Nor have I. I was raised by elves, after my parents died. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	izzyshaw 2013-06-25 01:05 pm UTC (link)
	I'd never met a 'Tolkien Elf' if you'll forgive the expression, before coming here. They didn't exist in any of the dimensions I'd been to before now, but I was usually on good terms with the Fae and similar type beings. The attitudes seem to be pretty similar, but if I were a few thousand years old I might be that way too. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I am as mortal as anyone, but I think that it would be impossible to change quickly opinions held so long. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	aphotic_auror 2013-06-25 10:48 am UTC (link)
	I've nothing against the elves, either... So long as they are not racist murderers, really -- I can get along with just about anyone for the sake of a good conversation...! (Reply to this) (Thread)

	tuor 2013-06-25 01:11 pm UTC (link)
	They are neither, I assure you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	aphotic_auror 2013-06-25 01:21 pm UTC (link)
	Well, that's good, then! I mean, I'd love to talk with them, someday... Especially if they're the same Elves from Tolkien's work about the War of the Ring...! I LOVED that book, for serious... (Reply to this) (Parent)
