*as the New Year looms ever closer, finds the time to pick up the phone, in order to contact a friend who has been highly remiss in maintaining telecommunications*
*wanders through his hotel suite in Ossiriand towards the minibar and, as soon as the phone is answered, immediately launches into a verbal assault*
So, what the fuck, man? Have you taken a vow of silence? Don't get me wrong, that Happy Birthday text was short and to the point and Eru knows you went way overboard with the gift-giving this year but you're in my Dad's kingdom and don't actually tell anyone? He says there's this whole circus going on down by the lake. Is that true? |

*appears to be going on a date for dinner with her husband although, the more she thinks about it, the more she comes to the conclusion that it was her idea and, oh dear...*
*makes her way to Hithlum and actually spends quite a pleasant day browsing around the city streets* *thinks this kingdom might be the most stress-free kingdom she has visited, which is funny, given how stressed its ruler often is*
*makes her way to the restaurant, as arranged, and is certainly dressed to kill* *arrives a little early and opts to sit up at the bar* |

*has a mission should he choose to accept it*
*makes his way out to Hithlum on a train with a car full of school kids on their term break oh Eru*
*tries not to ponder too much of the inevitable begging apologizing as he makes his way to the local burger joint for a (*wince*) Helm's Deep Freeze* |

*has moved back to Ossiriand, the weekend before school starts back* (*has also been astounded by the sheer amount of stuff that Fániel owns and leaves the suite in Tyler wondering just how she intends to pack all her stuff away by the end of the weekend*)
*leaves a voicemail for Argon to apologise that he can't help her move in because he's heading to Hithlum and, with that, heads to Hithlum*
*is sitting in the car on the way from the airport to his father's home when he takes out his phone and calls Fingon* |

*is staring at the big screen in a sports bar in Hithlum*
Oh, for Dad's sake. Surely she knows now. Surely. I mean. He just snogged her. On national television. |

*determines per request that the former High King has indeed left town*
*calls in a few favours and gets word he's back in Hithlum*
*follows there pretty quietly by train, then rented car, and makes a few inquiries* (*really grows a little curious how the guy's doing, actually*)
*asks around, then takes a walk to check out the local pubs* |

*walks into a pub on the shore of Lake Mithrim, looking for something that will pass as lunch*
*is (as always) talking (rather stridently) on her phone* No, of course, I'm not worried. So what if he's not on poll? Do I sound worried? Hey, I'd worry more about that whizzkid who is at the top of the grid? How's he gonna feel looking at my guy in his rear-view mirror? Yeah. Yeah, I reckon he'll be shitting himself too.
*hangs up without so much as a goodbye and walks up to the bar to look at the food menu, still fuming (rather literally)* |

*after some of the mayhem has died down, 'rescues' a full bottle of champagne, two glasses and a plate of food*
*meanders his way to Finduilas' room and knocks on the door*
*just loudly enough to be heard through the door* Room service. |

*confusedly runs a few steps after Aredhel* *lets her go* :( *tries to catch Argon or 'káno's eye for advice*
*smooths down her jacket and skirt* *quietly* Ah. Thank you everyone for coming.
*kind of blankly finds a seat at the end of the bridal party table and looks at all the pretty pretty flowers and decides to maybe have a drink or two* |

*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? |

[May. 15th, 2008|10:36 am] |
*watches the wedding disintegrate *and her sister and Oromë's spectacular exit*
*looks around for Tilion and that little girl Oromë was terrorizing*
*sighs and flags down a glass of champagne while she can still get it* Boy you sure can't choose your in-laws am I right? |

*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* |

*may have, perhaps, possibly arrived in Hithlum slightly early* (*will naturally never admit to this*)
*does not actually become aware of this fact until he's wasted an entire day avoiding all the insanity within a two-mile radius of the wedding venue*
*discovers that one of the only available unrelated activities boils down to sitting in the bar at his hotel on the eve of his cousin's wedding, drinking whiskey and arguing with the bartender (seemingly the only man in Hithlum not currently employed by the bride and groom) about why baseball is not an adequate metaphor for life* |

*Holes up in his hithlum hotel room for some quiet time after badgering the chef for a waldorf salad and a screwdriver after the kitchen was closed*
*Sits with his feet up, reading a paper one of his collegues sent him so they could get some feedback.*
*Turns the pages without really looking at them, his attention focussed on the mobile phone on the bedside cabinet.*
*Keeps wondering if he'll get a text from a certain son of his, because it's just nice to hear from his boys from time to time. Even if the messages are written in code and pertain to acts of violence he promised his wife he'd have nothing to do with.* |

*checks her e-mail at the library and finds a message from Physical Review Letters telling her they've accepted a paper she co-authored for publication*
*reads this over approximately thirty times just to make sure she's not imagining it*
*immediately and rather incoherently texts just about everyone she's ever met in her entire life before rushing back to her dorm room to tell Fániel* |
