*is at the airport in Ossiriand with her sister, who is on her way to Lindon to stay with their nephew (♥)*
*finds a small table for them both and, as there's plenty of time before Káni's flight, fetches them both coffee* Do you have everything? Wallet, credit card, phone, passport, phone numbers? *thinks that Gil-galad should have come to collect Káni just in case her amnesia renews itself or something like that (can that happen?)* |

*after seeing that his cousin is safely settled in at the hotel, very calmly and composedly walks into some random dive-y pub in town* *the sort the peasants love, where the walls reek of old beer and at least one regular is guaranteed to be passed out on his barstool by two in the afternoon*
*proceeds to get magnificently hammered*
*this done, appropriates a bottle of whiskey for the road and weaves walks the five or so miles to his house* *can't bet on whether Aredhel will be at his house or hers, these days, but (a) their daughter's still at his, and (b) he's been nice to her lately, both of which tend to increase the odds in his favor*
*stumbles in through the front door and slams it shut, shrugging off his coat and dropping it on the floor* *kicks off his shoes with such force that one knocks over the umbrella stand*
Íriiiiiissë! *takes another swig from the bottle and grimaces* You've got to. Listen. And so proud of me when. ÍRISSË. |

*still hasn't been able to contact Káni* *has tried her mobile number multiple times, has emailed all of the addresses he has for her and has called all of the numbers he ever had for her*
*eventually, realises that he's going to have to do something he really doesn't want to do*
*would far rather go right on ahead and charter a flight to Delving, ban on Noldor be damned, but mans up and dials the number* |

*was really quite glad for the bright spot in her day (she needed it)* *suspects she will now be returned to the regularly scheduled suckage* |

*Heads over Celegorm's with a parcel tucked under his arm.*
*Storms up the path towards the front door with a look on his face that says if anyone challenges him, that parcel may end up inserted somewhere unpleasant. It's not that he wants to use his grandaughter's Erumas present as an offensive weapon but he's in that bad a mood, and he can always buy another copy of The Ossiriand Companion to Ballet.* |

*having received a very curt text from Celegorm, along the lines of: L staying at mine. Need to talk., makes her way to his house, in something of a rage, albeit a very restrained one*
*does not appreciate being summoned in this way and can't even begin to imagine why Ninquelótë should be staying in that house* *flicks on the car radio as she drives over and is stunned to hear the news (guns drawn at a high school football game)*
*arrives at Turco's and storms up the front steps into the hall, demanding to know where the master of the house is* |

*travels with Celeborn and Elmo to Ossiriand, a little bit in advance of the forthcoming game between the Ossiriand Bobcats and the South Delving Groundhogs*
*is the very picture of courtesy during the journey mostly because Elmo's such a nice guy and maybe because she's still sort of grateful to Celeborn for being her date to the dance (and loads of the girls in her class were talking about how hot he is which, seriously? is sort of weird)*
*arrives at Aredhel's house, where she and her dad will be staying for the long weekend (though Gil-galad isn't due to arrive until late tomorrow night)* |

*is extremely pleased with how her (and her daughter's) home is progressing, thanks largely due to Nerdanel and Curufin (!)* *does feel that it's missing something, however*
*when she's fairly certain that Celegorm will be out, makes her way to his house and goes out to the stables*
*makes some arrangements with the head groom before she goes to find Buttercup* *not bothering with a saddle, only puts on the bridle and departs for a long ride, through the countryside she has grown to know (and love) so well*
*is a little bit morose when she returns to the stable, having poured her heart out to her horse* |

*after literally weeks of searching, found the perfect house in Ossiriand, right on the outskirts of town: it is virtually a manor house (though tiny in comparison to Turco's residence) with a huge amount of land and stables out the back*
*on the day of moving in, invites family - ie: Nerdanel, Anairë and Curvo - to come over and help her and Lily with decorating choices*
*stands at the back door, looking out over the vast back lawn towards the stables and wonders whether it would be remotely feasible to have Lily's horses brought over to here* *while Turco might be indifferent to her whereabouts and that of their daughter, isn't quite so sure he'd be indifferent as to the fate of horses* |

*manages to go about her day-to-day in Gondolin for a little while, but quickly comes to the conclusion that what she really needs is to talk to her boyfriend*
*makes sure that her mother is reasonably nearby before retreating to her room to make the call* |

*is actually rather surprised at how much she misses her daughter and almost regrets letting her go to Ossiriand all alone until she hits upon the perfect solution*
*travels to Ossiriand with the express intention of surprising her daughter and accompanying her back to Gondolin, perhaps via Fingon in Hithlum*
*is in a rather brilliant mood when she arrives at her daughter's father's house and is even a bit amused at the servants' surprise at seeing her* *has no wish to see the master of the house (and is certain he is otherwise occupied with his tabloid edition of romance)*
*texts Lily (surprise! am in ossiriand at your father's house. dinner and a late flight tonight okay? mom xxx) and makes herself comfortable in the library, while she waits* |

*has settled into a routine of sorts in Ossiriand, which primarily consists of spending as much time with her daughter as possible, and as little time with her daughter's father as possible*
*generally tries to avoid going near Celegorm's house but allows that it is occasionally unavoidable, when Lily's lessons run late, &c*
*ensuring that she is impeccably turned out, in a top, a pair of jeans and a perfectly tailored coat, makes her way to Celegorm's house, feeling edgy as soon as she passes through the gateway* |

*arrived back in Ossiriand to see in the New Year with her daughter, only to learn that she is once again resident at her father's house, and has now installed herself in a rather nice apartment which is, unbeknownst to her, in the same complex as Finduilas*
*had a very pleasant evening with Curufin (do not correct your sets) during which the details of a plan are discussed, in depth*
*in the middle of a delightfully sunny (but cold) morning, makes her way to the OU campus, expressly to intercept Ingil, somewhere nice, and public, and photogenic* |

*has begun to settle back into life in Gondolin as quickly as might have been expected* *is cheered enormously by the simple knowledge that Idril and Eärendil seem happy to have her around*
*is absolutely furious, however, when she reads the headlines from Ossiriand and immediately texts Curufin (What do you know about this? Amarie is not Finduilas. I don't want her near my child.)* *frets enormously and considers flying back to Ossiriand at least eighteen times in the inside of a morning* *is greatly appeased when she gets an unsolicited text from her daughter* *texts back immediately, telling her to call her any time* *really misses her little girl*
*is all but waiting by her phone so, when it rings, answers it in a rush, without stopping to check the caller ID* Hi, hello, Ninquelótë?? |

*arrives in Gondolin, having texted her sister, her daughter and her daughter's uncle to let them know that she's not gone far and can come back any time she's needed* *does not hold out much hope that she will be needed*
*checks into a hotel, not wanting to impose on her brother (just yet) and, having arranged to go to the Palace for dinner that evening, decides to run another errand first*
*can't help that her spirits lift slightly, walking through these strange-familiar streets* *reaches her destination and asks to see the Lord of the House (and is entirely aware that, no matter how fragile she seems, she is still used to getting her way, in this City above all places)* |

[Nov. 30th, 2009|12:56 am] |
*in the days since the Incident (can't bear to think of it in less abstract terms than that), has moved into a hotel in town (though not the same hotel in which her daughter is currently staying)*
*has had nothing whatsoever to do with Celegorm, or his brother (even though she grudgingly admits that Curufin has been remarkably supportive and caring of Lily)*
*does long for the air of Gondolin again and, in spite of her best efforts, cannot convince Lily to come too* *finally, does the unthinkable and contacts Arakáno, requesting to meet her at Curufin's hotel* |

| [ | Mood |
| |  bored | ] |
*for all her claims of acute independence, has been wishing there was someone she could tell about encounters with cute boys and maybe get some answers to a few burning questions* *isn't close enough to any of her girlfriends to gush with them, and she isn't sure whether her mother would be pleased or horrified (and she's not sure which reaction would be worse)*
*some things never change, however, which means another evening and another "family" dinner at her father's house (don't think for a second it belongs to her, too, or even her mother), which generally involves her parents talking to one another with occasional attempts to bring her into the conversation (which her father ignores) or similar attempts to bring her uncle into the conversation (which her mother ignores)*
*waits until her father isn't paying her any attention (it doesn't take long) and poises a pea atop her fork* *slingshots it across the table at Curufin and bites her lip hard to keep the giggles at bay* |

*arrived yesterday in Sirion and was rather taken aback at how familiar it all seems, in spite of the fast food joints and supermarkets* *is very taken by the hotel on the seafront (though not as taken by it as Idril is) and is very satisfied with the security measures put in place by Rôg*
*wakes up (or is woken up by Ecthelion) good and early on the morning of the wedding, which is at noon* *indulges in a pint or two in the hotel bar to steady his nerves (and has no idea why Ecthelion is so nervous, seeing as he's not the one getting married today) (not that Tuor is nervous either, of course!)*
*finally, just before noon, is standing at the top of a makeshift aisle on the beach, enjoying the very end of the warm(-ish) autumn sunshine*
*murmuring* Now I'll allow that kilts probably weren't the best choice. Still, my skin hue must match my blue tartan, right? |

*arrives in Gondolin, as arranged, with her son and her daughter (and is rather pleased to have her family with her)* *is not so foolish as to expect to stay in the Palace so checks in to the premier hotel in Gondolin*
*hopes that her brother and his family won't be too surprised to see them!*
*once she is settled into the suite that she is to share with Maeglin and Liltëas, suggests going out to lunch and ventures forth into the City (her home) and smiles at the sunlight and the peace and quiet* |

[Jul. 6th, 2009|06:32 pm] |
*is currently fuming at Celegorm and isn't even quite sure why; whether it's because their daughter was injured, or whether it's because their daughter is not speaking to anyone (out loud, at least) at the moment, or whether it's because it's a day ending in '-y' remains to be seen*
*has explained to Liltëas that sometimes when you love someone very much, you need to go very far away from them for a while* *books flights and a train to Gondolin and is rather looking forward to seeing her brother and niece again*
*picks up the phone after a moment's pause and dials another number* |
