[Feb. 27th, 2011|06:48 pm] gilgalad [ Tags | &argon&gil-galad, @lindon, argon, gil-galad ] *meets Arakáno at the airport in Lindon* *was actually there ridiculously early but just wanted to have every eventuality covered [what if he had a puncture? what if her flight was early? what if her flight was diverted and he'd have to charter another plane to go collect her? and, oh, he should have just chartered a flight for her in the first place]* *meets her at arrivals and has a sign and everything( * ) *shepherds her to his waiting car (a nice little sporty number) and drives at speed through the winding roads of Lindon* Link 22 comments|Leave a comment

[Feb. 11th, 2011|05:52 pm] gilgalad [ Tags | &argon&gil-galad, @ossiriand:ouh, argon, gil-galad ] *doesn't really understand why it should be so much harder to go in and see Káni now that she's conscious again but really has to work up the courage to visit her room, after half a day of hovering in the corridor outside* *in the mean time, managed to acquire a few things and has them stuffed into his backpack* *sighing, rocking slightly on the balls of his feet, reminds himself of the part where he's a former high king who was brave enough to resist and then face Sauron and, really, what's a little more heartbreak, when no one died?* *knocks on the doorframe and steps into her room* Link 32 comments|Leave a comment

Something inane about the power being out?* *is weirdly grateful for Túrin, in some crystal clear thought, for making her used to this form of transport* *gets out her phone and breaks into a run* *firstly, calls Haleth and Mablung, ordering them to the Palace instantly (she trusts no one else with this task) and telling Mablung to bring Arandur with him* *arrives at the quarters of Beren and Lúthien and pounds on the door as she lets herself in and realises (heartbroken) that she will have to tell them why she is here* [edit] *having ensure the safety of the Royal Family, immediately seeks out Melian, and when she presents herself before the Queen (Regent?), she bows her head, pale and resolute* Link 105 comments|Leave a comment

We got a schedule to keep here! *stops short in the inner office, surprised to actually see Fingon sitting at his desk* *at a more reasonable volume (for a normal person; downright subdued for a Fingolfin)* You know 'bout the schedule?

PROTECT YOUR QB, YOU PORKY SONS OF BITCHES! *looks down at the woman sitting on the bleacher seat directly below him, who whirls around with a ferocious glare and covers her young son's ears* WHAT.

[Aug. 8th, 2010|10:59 pm] gilgalad [ Tags | @lindon, chad, gil-galad, verity, violet ] *in the run-up to the new academic year, spends a bit of time at the military school, annoying Vëantur and inspecting each department* *on one such inspection, eventually becomes so bored that he takes a step out to call Glorfindel on the pretext of conferring about some matter of military education* *is a bit put out when he gets no answer but supposes it's a possibility that his friend might be busy (he is)* *next, tries Celebrían, under no pretext whatsoever, except that it has been far too long since they have spoken* *gets no answer here either and if he wasn't such a secure individual, he might think she's avoiding him (she is)* *scowls at his phone and leans against the wall of the building, wondering if he can conceivably bug Káni, even though they've already had their daily telephone conversation (which is sometimes twice- or thrice-daily but who's counting?)* Link 21 comments|Leave a comment

[Jun. 10th, 2010|08:41 pm] galadhriel [ Tags | &celeborn&dior, &celeborn&galadriel, &celeborn&nimloth, &dior&galadriel, &dior&nimloth, &finrod&galadriel, &galadriel&gil-galad, @gondolin:palace, celeborn, dior, finrod, galadriel, gil-galad, nimloth ] *is fairly pleased about having a potential new friend (mostly because she doesn't have all that many friends)* *is less than pleased that the one time she gets to come to Gondolin, her second cousin is also in town (what are the odds?)* *gets all dolled up and supposes it would be polite to invite her second cousin and, apparently, the son of her sister's friend?* *not that she usually cares about being polite, of course, but should probably make some effort in the country where her sister is Queen* *heads up to the quarters that were assigned to her (and pretty nice quarters they are too, with two bedrooms and a huge living room, with widescreen TV, etc)* *manages to extract a couple of bottle of vodka from one of the Palace staffers, through a combination of bribery and blackmail* *has a shot of vodka, in the name of experimentation, before the others arrive (and prepares to assume a bored expression if Celeborn arrives first)* Link 124 comments|Leave a comment

[May. 10th, 2010|10:08 am] arakano [ Tags | &argon&celegorm, &argon&elladan, &argon&gil-galad, @ossiriand:ou, argon, celegorm, elladan, gil-galad, telimektar ] [ Mood | tired ] *isn't especially nervous the morning she is to defend her dissertation (it's not her way), but is definitely feeling drained afterward, when the post-presentation Q&A finally comes to an end and she is swarmed by other scientists wanting to grill her about some of the stunning revelations she's turned up in her research* *gamely answers a few more questions as she tries to catch Ethan's eye (help), or Fániel's, but the former appears to be too busy trying to wake up the latter* Link 22 comments|Leave a comment

[May. 9th, 2010|07:20 pm] gilgalad [ Tags | &gil-galad&veantur, @lindon, gil-galad, veantur ] *after his best friend went and got gay-married in his town, didn't think that anything exciting would ever happen in Lindon again* *sinks further into depression (or what passes for depression in Gil-galads) when Káni goes back to Ossiriand to be a nerd* *gets stuck in to the running of things and can think of no way of avoiding sitting on a boring interview panel for one of the senior teaching positions at the military school* *plays Noughts & Crosses with himself for the first batch of interviews, having made up his mind about each and every one of them based on his first impressions of them (Too old) (Too fug) (A ballet teacher??) (Too timid) (Too creepy)* *after a brief break for coffee, scans over the CV of the next candidate and, much to his fellow interviewers' surprise, sits up straight and eyeballs him as he walks into the room* *without preamble* According to your resumé, your experience is almost entirely maritime-based. What on Órë qualifies you to teach in a landlocked country? Link 30 comments|Leave a comment

They don't serve breakfast at the courthouse. Fuck's sake. Link 66 comments|Leave a comment

[Dec. 31st, 2009|08:30 pm] gilgalad [ Tags | &gil-galad&glorfindel, @mithrim, @ossiriand, gil-galad, glorfindel ] [ Mood | chipper ] *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? Link 11 comments|Leave a comment

It was freezing out there, bless Itarillë's heart. She's wearing a strapless and I don't think she even noticed. At the risk of becoming a cliché, I fucking love open bars.

Still, my skin hue must match my blue tartan, right? Link 55 comments|Leave a comment

[Sep. 30th, 2009|11:37 pm] gilgalad [ Tags | &fingon&gil-galad, @lindon:gil-galad's, @mithrim:fingon's, fingon, gil-galad ] *gets his (newly acquired) PA to sum up the recent goings-on in his best friend's life* No, no. A thumbs up or a thumbs down will do. I don't actually want to hear the reports of where and how they made up, just that they did. *duly reassured, phones Glorfindel and has a rather interesting conversation with him about Gil-galad's cousin* *hangs up* *chews his lip* *wonders about calling his father (who he's sort of been avoiding for months since he found out who his real father is and since he slept with his father's sister)* *sighs and presses the speed-dial* Hi, hi, Margaret. It's Gil-galad. Is Dad there? Link 14 comments|Leave a comment
