[Mood | angry]

*decides something needs to be done about the Gondolin situation, even if next to no one is aware that there is a Gondolin situation* *is sick to the back teeth of shipments going missing, of being outbid on certain jobs through the continent and of unexplained delays to his own shipments*

*makes plans to meet a main player in this whole scenario but plans to meet him on neutral ground, away from Hithlum, Thargelion or Gondolin herself*

*strolls into a kitsch little coffee shop on the Cape of Balar and sits down at a table in an alcove, waiting for his contact to arrive*

*is rather amused by the kerfuffle of a few weeks ago and is even more amused at how stressed his uncle subsequently becomes* *can't help but notice how Fingon looks even greyer and more wound up whenever they are in the same room*

*thinks that enough time has passed for him to put another part of his plan into operation*

*arranges (via satellite phone, of course) for a particular package to be intercepted, its contents removed and replaced with a simple mobile phone*

*waits for confirmation of receipt of said package before he dials the number* *reclines on his bed, adjusting his bluetooth headset for comfort as he reaches for a glass of lemonade*

[Mood | anxious]

*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??

[Mood | excited]

*on the evening of the ball, gets all dressed up in her bright yellow gown (it's poofy!) and her jeweled mask and goes downstairs to join the gathering throng*

*wanders among all the people (there are a lot of them throughout the palace, considering she's invited all the staff from all the Houses), oohing and ahhing at all the beautiful, colorful costumes and trying to guess who's who*

*thinks that tall and muscly one over there is probably Egalmoth, and oh, there's her aunt, surely, resplendent in white, and her little cousin (and she breathes a little sigh of relief because it seems Lómion must have gone back to Uncle Fingon's after all)*

*can't guess who most people are (even the really obvious ones), though she never forgets a name, but it's great fun to try!* *collects a glass of champagne and whirls and twirls around the ballroom, humming to herself and eagerly awaiting Tuor's arrival*

*has been in Gondolin for a number of days (a number of days after the time he was supposed to have left)* *has even phoned his mother from "Lindon" and is utterly certain that she believes him to be in his cousin's kingdom*

*has managed to stay pretty well in cognito while in the City (it's all in the walk and the eye contact) although he did have a little bit of fun earlier in the week*

*runs a few important errands, culminating in attending the House of the Harp for an appointment under an assumed name (Mr Ince Carey Sharpe) and under the pretext of arranging a Poetry Festival*

*Constructs an elaborate fleet of paper ships and sets them afloat in Ecthelion's fountain.*

*Takes a deep breath, huffs and puffs at the boats to create a miniature gale (idly wonders if it's blasphemous to play at pretending to be Manwë).*

*Pushes his hand through the water to simulate a wave (has a strong, unexplainable suspicion that Ulmo doesn't have a problem with blasphemy).*

[Mood | calm]

*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*

*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*

[Mood | shocked]

*spends a pleasant morning out with her horse before coming home and playing with Liltëas for the rest of the morning*

*goes to wash and change for lunch and is on her way back downstairs when a servant approaches (rather timidly) to tell her that she has a visitor* *can only assume that Celegorm is not at home because otherwise she would never be troubled with such things*

*goes into the smaller reception room, wondering which family member has decided to trouble her peace this ... time*

*is hauled out of a late-morning drill, with the news that his mother has come to visit*

*responds with an appropriate salute and is escorted/directed to the visitors' centre of the Blue Mountain Military School*

*does nothing that will betray his excitement (because his Mom must have gotten his letter and is here to spring him see him) or his annoyance (that it took her so freaking long to do anything)*

*is shown into the main visiting room, where his mother is sitting behind a table* *salutes his senior officer who then leaves the room before walking smartly across the floor to his mother*

*in no particular order has:
-a captain out with a gunshot wound
-a filthy traitor Glorfindel-shooting miscreant nephew in his office
-a daughter safely(?) out to tea with her mother (thanks for doing something useful, Elenwë!)
-a grandson safely out of the city for the day (hunting treasure in the hills)
-a sister/mother-of-nephew running Very Important Errands (she should feel like she's contributing to the household!)
-a Finrod gone forever
-and a strangely well-liked big brother here to help him

*great day!*

*waits for Maeglin to be forced into a take a seat* *glances at his brother* 'káno?

*lands in Ossiriand in the early hours of the morning* *is still not a fan of any part of flying but at least it wasn't dark*

*gets into a taxi without really paying any attention to the direction they're taking because his phone rings* Hello? -- Yeah, speaking. *listens before laughing* How did you get this number? Am I going to have to get my lawyers onto you? *waits for the response* Oh, my lawyers gave you my number? I'm gonna have to get new lawyers. *waits a beat* Or a new number.

*rummages in his bag while talking* OK. Shoot. *produces a gun* Blue. No, of course not really. Yellow, it's always yellow. *produces a second gun* I'm sorry, what? Have I ever--? Oh, always. Perpetually. *pins the phone between his ear and his shoulder* Oh, I wouldn't say that. *deftly begins to load one of the guns (with blanks)* Spiders. No, really. Would I lie? *loads the other gun* Well, except for the blue thing. *passes one of the guns to Ecthelion* Absolutely not. Never.

*has read every word of every report, knows every relevant specification by heart...and still cannot believe that the building barely standing in front of him is one in which Idril, sweet little Idril a member of the royal family resides*

*matches the address to the one in his head about six more times before reluctantly walking up, finding Idril's name on the list next to the door, and ringing the buzzer*

[Mood | upset]

*receives the absolute sweetest card in the mail and reads it through twice, smiling*

*props it up on the windowsill in her tiny kitchen and goes to retrieve the book on art history she's been reading* *notices another sort of history book on the shelf and begins wondering if there's anything interesting to be found in its pages*

*curls up on the couch with it, flips to the relevant chapter, and starts to read* *well, skim*

...and in the winter of that year Rían his wife bore a child in the wilds of Mithrim, and he was named Tuor...

*continues for a little while until the subject turns to war and Morgoth and all those nasty things* *skips ahead*

Then the heart of Idril was turned to him...

*gasps and flushes bright red* *skips a little further on, not quite brave enough to read the rest of that paragraph*

...but Maeglin had laid hands (?) on her, and on Eärendil (??); and Tuor fought with Maeglin on the walls, and cast him far out, and his body as it fell smote the rocky slopes of Amon Gwareth...

*snaps the book closed, so upset her hands are shaking* *eventually finds the presence of mind to look for her phone and dial her cousin*

[Mood | determined]

*really enjoyed his few days in Lindon with the old crew*

*heads back to his campus accommodation in Ossiriand, feeling rather more determined than before*

*knocks on his door as he lets himself in to his room, stepping over the (hopefully?) slumbering figure of one of his neighbours* *lightly* I hope Zac's alive, Maeglin, 'else you and I are in a lot of trouble.

*has had an enjoyable week or so, hanging out in Gil-galad's dorm, sleeping and watching TV and raiding his mini-fridge on a daily basis*

*is currently firmly ensconced on Gil-galad's bed, in front of the television, watching daytime chat shows and drinking milk straight from the carton*

*spends a fairly unproductive afternoon in the Arts Library, trying to prepare for tutorials and lectures*

*in truth, is trying to figure out whether his new professor/boss/supervisor sends less scary when he's called Gil-galad's great-half-uncle or his almost-step-grandfather*

*thinks it all sounds pretty shit-scary!*

*decides to take a break from doodling in the margins of his notepad and goes outside for a breath of fresh air and a coffee break*

*has entered a state of absolute zen, in complete contrast to her husband-to-be* *yay, husband-to-be!*

*sits patiently as her hair and make-up are perfected*

*looks at the wedding programme in her hands:*

~-~The Marriage Of~-~
Eärwen Olwiel to Arafinwë Finwion

5.00pm: Arrival of Wedding Guests
5.30pm: Cocktail Reception (Ballroom)
6.30pm: Exchange of Vows (Balcony)
7.00pm: Champagne Reception (Ballroom)
8.00pm: Dinner (Ballroom)


*looks at her reflection and smiles, biting her lip, hoping that Arafinwë will like the tiny flowers in her hair and the very demure, simple dress and veil*

*takes a deep breath as 5.30pm approaches*

*makes her way out and down the sweeping staircase to the front hall* *has her arrival announced at the entrance to the ballroom*
