*arrives in Ondolindë after a refreshing and quite pleasant visit with Erendis at the seaside*
*checks into the penthouse of her very own hotel, making sure to note every teensy-tiny detail in the process*
*considers taking a stroll around the city, or indeed doing what she came here to do in the first place, but instead finds herself in the hotel café, paging through a magazine and sipping a cup of tea*
*feels a tiny thrill of satisfaction at all of this, truth told* |

[Jul. 10th, 2008|10:55 am] |
*barely manages to make it through the day, and even then it's mostly by being disagreeable and burying himself in the work that seems to pile up so quickly when Ecthelion is gone* *considers calling Finrod on more than one occasion, but thinks it'll have to be her doing the calling even though he told her not to bother*
*finally gives up and locks himself away in his SECRET private study*
*makes friends with a bottle of whiskey* |

[Jul. 8th, 2008|02:45 pm] |
*wakes up in a cold sweat, biting her lip to keep from crying*
*can still see her face, as clear as if it had just happened -- the very image she spent a lifetime trying to forget* *feels an overwhelming urge to be sick*
*struggles to free herself from Turgon's arm and then climbs… no, slithers, out of bed and onto the floor to find her clothes* |
|
|
| |
[Jul. 5th, 2008|12:33 pm] |
*despite his earlier words, goes down to the train station himself to meet Finrod when she arrives*
*needs to clear his head after finding out about Írissë's pregnancy*
*waits on the platform, pacing, and feeling more and more worried about everything* |
|
|
| |
[Jul. 3rd, 2008|12:08 am] |
*travels to Gondolin by train* *doesn't actually inform Turgon that she's arriving but, instead, goes straight to the hospital for an appointment*
*emerges, later in the afternoon* *texts Celegorm, as she stands on the front steps of the hospital building to confirm that he is to be an absentee father*
*falters slightly as she tries to decide whether to check into a hotel or brave the Palace* |
|
|
| |
[Jul. 2nd, 2008|11:28 am] |
*receives a really rather interesting fax from the Marchwardens* *hmm*
*spends some time looking it over before approving it and sending it off*
*waits until later, when she's alone and guaranteed some privacy, before making a long-overdue phone call* |
|
|
| |
[Jun. 23rd, 2008|10:13 pm] |
*at a minute past midday, receives a summons from the King of Gondolin*
*but it's so early*
*takes his time getting ready [which includes: coffee, showering, dressing, breakfast, scanning the dailies, asking his gardener to pick some of the prettiest flowers from the rose garden*
*makes his way to the Palace and gives the flowers (now wrapped in a very nice golden ribbon) to one of the servants to give to the Princess (as a Welcome home to Gondolin sort of present?)*
*waits outside Turgon's office, with his head in his hands as his hangover returns full force* |
|
|
| |
[Jun. 22nd, 2008|02:15 pm] |
*finds himself distracted by memories and thoughts of the past following his conversation with Idril*
*manages to make it through the festivities well enough, but can't keep some thoughts off his mind*
*late at night, after everything is through, makes his way to the library, pulls down a book, and begins reading*
*is still there the next morning, bleary-eyed and surrounded by a stack of books* |
|
|
| |
[Jun. 18th, 2008|10:42 am] |
*sees Idril go to her room looking upset and is pretty certain he hears crying once she closes the door*
*stands at the door for a second, fist poised to knock, but thinks better of it*
*goes downstairs to find Turgon* |
|
|
| |
[Jun. 17th, 2008|08:49 am] |
*is home!*
*cheerfully greets the driver who's met her and Ecthelion at the train station*
*once in the car, rolls the window all the way down so she can feel the fresh air on her face and see all the familiar sights as they ride to the Palace* *has really, really missed this* |
|
|
| |
[Jun. 13th, 2008|09:51 pm] |
*has eagles little birdies everywhere keeping him abreast of things*
*and isn't entirely clueless as to why his mother might have chosen now to stop by*
*wanders around looking for her, after sending Ecthelion off to retrieve his misguided youth* |
|
|
| |
[Jun. 10th, 2008|08:38 pm] |
*sits patiently in Turgon's office, waiting for the King to return and the regular meeting (for which he is always early and Turgon is always late) to begin*
*has never seriously entertained just showing up when he knows Turgon will be there, no, thank you*
*exudes a great deal more calm than the slight panic in his head would call for, given what he has to report* |
|
|
| |
[Jun. 10th, 2008|11:46 am] |
*out of nowhere, finds himself heading home from... somewhere?*
*doesn't recognize a lot of the buildings and people and thinks that's really strange and maybe someone's playing a silly joke on him?*
*gets to his house and realizes someone must be playing a joke on him, because that building's not his house*
*sits down on a bench and stares up at the sign* "Gondolin Memorial"...? |
|
|
| |
[May. 28th, 2008|07:04 pm] |
*puts the finishing touches on the marketing materials for the new hotel and schedules a final round of staff interviews* (*can't be too careful about the wait staff*)
*sets Elenwë's concerns aside, putting them down to pre-opening jitters*
*formally opens the High, Gondolin, and takes a few more bookings* |
|
|
| |
[May. 24th, 2008|12:06 pm] |
*bounds down the steps two at a time when he hears Turgon's helicopter land on the roof*
*waits until he's finished with his guest? before coming after him*
I've got about a thousand good reasons to yell at you right now and I'm just not sure which one I should start with! |
|
|
| |
[May. 15th, 2008|11:54 am] |
*thinks he should make himself useful while Finrod's gone checking on her sister*
*sees Írissë's being looked after and his mother is being looked after and everyone else seems fine*
*goes over and sits next to his brother, who has looked like someone ran over his puppy while stealing his car all night*
What's going on? |

*wakes up on the morning of his sister's wedding and is determined to be happy and supportive and happy and --*
*sighs and gets ready and goes to the venue (one of the courtyards in the Royal Compound) which is completely bedecked with white flowers*
*takes his seat on the bride's side and avowedly does not look at the empty seats on either side of him*
*realises he's ridiculously early when the band arrive to tune up* |

*sneaks out early on Friday while Thingol is distracted with his daily 'Beren Darts' game*
*thinks her super-competent assistant can handle things for half a day* (*Eru help him*)
*hops on the first train to Gondolin and sneaks her way into the palace* |

[Apr. 29th, 2008|10:59 am] |
*finally, finally manages to make it into the actual city of Delving*
*after fifteen too many vigorous friskings by fifteen too many over-zealous border patrols*
*makes his way to the address Turgon provided and tries not to immediately go into over-protective overload when he gets a look at the place*
*knocks at the door, asks for Idril, is told she is "out", and has the door slammed in his face*
This city's just full of hospitality. *settles down on the stoop to wait, wondering what exactly his cover story is again...?* |

[Apr. 13th, 2008|09:06 am] |
*wakes up (all alone besides servants)*
*goes down to breakfast*
*is met by his secretary on the stairs, who gives him his schedule for the day (no puddle-jumping breaks) and informs him he has an early morning appointment*
*doesn't remember scheduling any early morning appointments, but there you go*
*stumbles into the breakfast nook and sees someone sitting in his chair, reading his paper, and eating his Cocoa Krispies Special Chocolate and Vanilla Swirl!*
