Video, UN: maglor

[bythewaves]

[ Embarassed elf is working very hard to seem very calm about this ]

To all who may have been accosted by an overly enthusiastic child last month, I apologise, for I knew only love and not fear at that age and was rather supremely spoilt. I hope I did not inconvience anyone overly, and I thank those who were so kind to me in turn.

[Baiyi is visibly humored.]

That sweet babe was you?

[bythewaves]

Baiyi!

I am so sorry... thank you for putting up with me. I hope I was not too much of a trial.

[yeoldmonster]

No, not at all. In fact, I rather preferred Kano to the trial that is Maglor. How do we turn you back?

[holdshisown]

There is nothing to be sorry for, Kano. You always were a very sweet little elfling and I was rather happy to see you as such again. [Not that he wasn't happy to see his brother return to his proper age or anything!]

[bythewaves]

Baiyi!

[ He does not QUITE whine ]

I was a spoilt brat, and you may say so.

[bythewaves]

I caused you a lot of trouble. [ He points out wryly ]

Especially with running off to talk to random strangers. [ Valinor had been safe, and Makalaure the beloved second son of the Crown Prince - but Maglor, the survivor of Beleriand, is rather horrified at his own behaviour ]

[holdshisown]

You caused me no trouble.

You caused me a little bit of worry perhaps but it was no more than I could handle, truly. [Maedhros had once juggled more than simply one overenthusiastic elfling, it hadn't been anything he wasn't well equiped to handle.]

[yeoldmonster]

You're a prince, of course you're a spoilt brat. Think that has changed now that you're older?

[bythewaves]

[ he drops his face into his hands to hide the embarassed flush ]

Ai! I have not been a prince in many a long year - but I suppose some things never leave one.

[bythewaves]

You're too kind to me, Nelyo.

[ Still a bit red ]

I suppose... I did have fun. It was nice to be innocent again, for a while.

[holdshisown]

I am as kind as you deserve.

[Maglor had made for an adorable child in any case. He had not minded at all that he had had to care for him.]

I'm glad I could keep you entertained. It was good to see you so carefree again.

[rivendell_lord]

[ He's trying not to smirk. Really he is! ]

You were a rather cute child, ada. It was no inconvenience that was unwelcome.

[bythewaves]

[ Buries his face in his hands ]

Can we... forget that happened? Please?

[bythewaves]

I was not hard to entertain. [ He says wryly, still able to remember flitting around to every interesting thing ]

But I suppose you had practice keeping up.

[holdshisown]

Children usualy aren't. [Like a curious little bird he'd been.]

I did manage to wrangle Tyelko, Moryo and Curvo after all. You were hardly the most difficult child I've ever had to care for.

[bythewaves]

When you put it that way...

[ Maglor shudders in mock horror ]

At least there was only one of me!

[ He remembers the few times he had to babysit Ambarussa. It didn't usually end well ]

[holdshisown]

You are so lucky they were primarily my problem.

[Technicaly they were primarily their parents problem, but... with their father being the way he was and their mother being just one person with twins to care for as well. Was it any wonder that he had taken it upon himself to deal with the Terrible Three?]

Indeed, hardly any trouble at all!

[That's because you didn't do enough to make sure you meant it when you threatened them with consequenses! You had to follow through with your threats, Kano.]

[bythewaves]

That's because you're the only one responsible enough.

[ Maglor points out, amused ]

They were never going to let Tyelko babysit, after he forgot Moryo in the woods!

[ He couldn't even tell them apart for the first few years and you want him to follow through on consequences??? ]

[holdshisown]

It's lucky for our parents that they managed to produce at least one responsible son.

[Whatever would any of them have done if he had turned out just as wild as the rest of them?]

They never should have let him do it that first time either. Poor Moryo, he was absolutely inconsolable when I found him.

[Truly? Maedhros could tell them apart easily enough.]

[bythewaves]

I suppose you could argue Moryo was responsible, at least, so long as it did not involve talking to anyone!

[ .........probably not made it to adulthood? ]

He was, and I don't think he ever forgave Tyelko that!

[ ........they were identical how??!?! ]

[yeoldmonster]

[Baiyi laughs and shakes his head.]

Maglor if I really found you a spoilt brat do you think I'd willingly spend time with you?

[Video]

[rivendell_lord]

[ aaand full on smirk. ]

Forget how precious to me you are? Nay, I cannot do that.

[bythewaves]

[ STooooooooooop ]

Yonya, please!

[ should have left you for the orcs ]

[bythewaves]

[ He's still red but he smiles at him ]

You're a better friend than I could have hoped to have. And an excellent babysitter.

[yeoldmonster]

If I were being honest, I'm just a bit disappointed to find out little Kano isn't going to be around any longer. It's been a long time since I last held a child.

Why were you called Kano back then?
