Shameless.

(This Lan has passed judgment on you, Jikan. Now await your punishment.)

My arm would seize before I could give enough lashes.

(Actually it would fall off. Even with his endurance!)

Teach him how, bro

[ Slow confused blink ]

See... what?

[ GUESS WHO HAS SPENT HIS WHOLE TIME HAVING TRAUMATIC CONVERSATIONS WITH BIG BRO and getting punched by Fingon, and... Feanor. Just. Feanor. ]
bythewaves: (Arnold concern)

come make a new friend Wangji

[ ..................okay then, he's not going to ask, he guesses?

Maglor blinks at him and then nods, slowly ]


Thank you for the warning, good sir.

[ He's got to herd dad anyway, if he doesn't want explosions ]
bythewaves: (hm?)

Wangji has no choice, it must happen

[ Maglor accepts the subject change ]

Well enough. [ Let's not talk about the black eye, cough. Fingon didn't mean to hurt Maglor, but when one is punching a Balrog with an armoured fist, only to accidentally hit one's cousin instead, bruising is inevitable. Maglor's only happy nothing broke ]

I hope that other than the... mm. Discomfort, that you remain well yourself?
bythewaves: (hm?)

[ That depends on if Fingon runs into Feanor... ]

That is well. Sometimes, it is easier to ignore things that disturb oneself.

[ He tips his head curiously ]

You... have the look of one that I have met. Do you know a Lan Xichen?
bythewaves: (brothers)

[personal profile] bythewaves 2022-04-05 01:10 pm (UTC)(link)
[ somehow, Maglor doesn't think either cousin or uncle would even notice ... ]

Perhaps. [ He hums ] But they are adults, no? Their choices are their own.

Ah!

[ His eyes light up when he smiles ]

He mentioned he had kin here. That is well - I am glad that brothers may be together.

[ Hopefully, one of them does not decide to go volcano diving ]

[ Sssh don't look at the First Age Elves having Family Issues ]

Even so, but those choices, and the consequences thereof, are theirs to accept.

[ He hums ]

I met him but the once, but he seemed very kind. He invited me to visit, some time.

[ Such is life in the house of Finwe~ ]

Perhaps, or perhaps the order present is not one that you are familiar with? [ aw, this human is young! ]

I will have to accept such a gracious invitation then, especially if it comes with familiar company - will you be there as well?
bythewaves: (look up)

[personal profile] bythewaves 2022-04-06 08:17 am (UTC)(link)
[ When they were younger, yes... they're all supposed to be adults now ...

absolutely yes, when Celegorm is involved ]


I have not, but that does not mean there is not one. [ He smiles wryly ]

What do I know of the habits of Men? And besides that, I have not been here long - neither as my kin would count it, nor yours! There may yet be nuances I have not understood.

[ the smile firms ]

I would, yes, if you would mind not giving it.
bythewaves: (alone)

[personal profile] bythewaves 2022-04-11 12:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Oh this, Maglor is very sadly aware.

Celegorm says he can do what he wants!!! ]


I will, young one. But I think that you might have better luck there. Men have changed much, since my days. I doubt that I will ever truly understand you.

[ He smiles, eyes softening ]

Is it yours?
bythewaves: (sing you to sleep)

[personal profile] bythewaves 2022-04-11 01:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Poor Qiren would have a stroke

he lifts a hand to gesture vaguely at their surrounds ]


All of this...how you have grown - such strange machinery... Well. Arda was always meant for Men, perhaps. You have always changed faster than us.

[ he smiles ]

Do they have names?
bythewaves: (hm?)

[personal profile] bythewaves 2022-04-11 01:48 pm (UTC)(link)
[ to be fair, all Finweans are chaotic. Some are just more chaotic than others ]

One of the names we call you are Strangers, for you go out from the world, and we know not whence. [ Maglor nods, and smiles ]

Do those names mean anything?
bythewaves: (earth air sea)

[personal profile] bythewaves 2022-04-11 03:05 pm (UTC)(link)
I see!

[ He laughs softly ]

I am no Man! Eldar I am, or Quendi, one of the Firstborn. Like all my people I am tied to Arda, until it ends.
