[It was only a matter of time, he supposed, before one of the strange effects of this place happened to him. That doesn't mean he's pleased about it, however. Slightly paniced and quite annoyed, bordering on angry, would be a more accurate way to describe his current mental state.

He is currently glaring quite menacingly at his own reflection at the moment. At the two elk horns that has started to grow from his head, if you wanted to be precise about it.]

If anyone knows how to make these go away I would be very grateful for the assistance.

[His voice is level, almost emotionless, but there is an undercurrent af anger to be heard for those who knows him well enough. One of his ears twitch in annoyance and he notices that though it is still pointed it is now covered in a soft velvety fur now.]

[ ....alright, he'll grant you that!

Maglor doesn't flinch, testament to his trust of his brother ]

It is a question I would never dream would be applied to my beloved older brother!

[ He fakes a swoon ]

[holdshisown]

[That's right! Now how come all his much shorter brother's couldn't keep the same level of discretion, huh?]

Fine. Hair probably does not taste very good in any case.

[It'd probably feel pretty awful to get a mouthful of hair in his mouth, honestly.]

[bythewaves]

[ Why, because he didn't share his secrets~ Do tell~ ]

I can't imagine it would, no! Although at least mine is no longer salty!

[ He is glad they have come to an agreement~ ]

[holdshisown]

[And here he'd thought he'd already taught his brothers all about common sense? Like not doing anything incriminating while there was witnesses around and learning to keep a straight face when questioned about it.]

Probably not. The texture would likely be unpleasant as well. Do you think an elk would enjoy the taste of salt or dislike it?

[It would be too much effort to bite his brothers hair off anyways. Or bite him at all, for that matter.]

[bythewaves]

[ Hmmmm.... no, no, must have missed that lesson! Tyelko certainly missed it~ ]

Hm. I'm sure I've heard something about animals needing salt, sometimes. So it might depend? Didn't the deer used to come to salt licks near Himring? Elk are somewhat like deer....

[ Daww, he knew you loved him ]

[holdshisown]

[Missed? Or ignored?]

Would make sense, no? We need salt, after all, so they probably do as well. The deer certainly seemed to enjoy the taste of it. And elk are basicaly just bigger deers, right?

[Yes, yes. You are just to darned adorable for him to actually go through with any sort of biting. He'd probably bite Tyelko, though, but most likely not very hard...]

[bythewaves]

[ He cannot comment on account of incriminating himself~

Tyelko definitely ignored it though ]

That's true. Horses sometimes liked salt too, I remember. I can't remember seeing the hunting hounds go for salt, but perhaps they did! Maybe it's just something all things need?

[ Yay~ And Tyelko would deserve it. Also probably bite back. ]

[holdshisown]

[You're learning! He's so proud of you baby bro~

Tyelko absolutely ignored it, the little shit.]

Perhaps dogs get it through other means, though? Their diets are very different from a herbivores, after all.

[He'd absolutely deserve it. After all the things he'd put him through. >:(]

I RETURN FROM HOLIDAYS

[bythewaves]

[ He tries, he tries~

Anything for you, big bro~

And Tyelko clearly felt that being a dick was some form of affection ]

I suppose so! Should I go into the house and bring salt out for you? We could experiment a little...

WELCOME BACK!

[holdshisown]

[And that's all he's ever asked for~

That he did! To his older brother's eternal consternation.]

Oh! Yes! We should! I wonder if taste works the same in this form or if it's different...?

[He gives the grass a considering look. Maybe he should try a mouthful and see if it tasted good in this form?]

Thankeeeee I got snowed in it was very exciting XD

[bythewaves]

I can see that look, Nelyo, don't you dare try the grass! I'll get salt, though.

Fun times XD

[holdshisown]

But what if it tastes really good in this form?

[Had you considered that, Maglor? What if the ground tasted like candy when you have the tastebuds of an elk?]

indeedy XD I am glad to be home

[bythewaves]

And what if it disagrees with you when you turn back again?

[ He will admit to being curious but also, he's not holding your hair back if you throw it back up again later, Nelyo ]

[holdshisown]

Hmmm... I hadn't thought about that. That would be unpleasant.

[Better leave it be, for now at least. He's not all that eager to have Maglor hold his hair while he throws up either.]

[bythewaves]

Most definitely.

[ Maglor agrees ]

So no grass or leaves please, Nelyo! I'm happy for you to try things that you would be able to eat normally if you want?

[holdshisown]

[It seems this form feels hunger far better than he does in his own for he visibly perks up at the mention of food.]

Oats, maybe? Oh! Or fruit! I feel like I could eat an entire bushel of apples right now!

[bythewaves]

[ Maglor laughs at him ]

Well! Suddenly so hungry, Nelyo? I don't think we even HAVE a bushel of apples. But I will see what I can find, as I don't think you'll fit inside in this form!

[holdshisown]

[Well... this form is fairly large. It wouldn't surprise him if it needed a lot of energy.]

I am! [He whines as he plaintively nudges at his brother.] Even if I fit inside I don't think we'd want me to ruin the floors by stomping around in there.

[bythewaves]

[ Maglor shoves back at him fondly, and doesn't budge him an inch at this size ]

All right, all right! I'll go find you some apples. Oof, you're already so heavy, Nelyo!

[holdshisown]

[Maedhros huffs fondly at the shove.]

Yes. You do that please, my most kind and generous brother. Are you calling me fat? I'll have you know this is all muscle.

[bythewaves]

Are you sure? I'm sure some of this has got to be fat!

[holdshisown]

[Rude!]

I'm very sure and I'm very insulted that you'd insinuate otherwise.

[bythewaves]

[ The Rudest~

Shoves fondly at him again ]

Well you certainly weigh rather more than normal right now~

[holdshisown]

[The absolute rudest!

He snorts and nudges him again, taking care to be gentle about it to shove he's not as offended as he pretends to be.]

Of course I do! But it's not because of fat!

[bythewaves]

[ He Learnt Well~

Maglor pretends to stumble, all the same ]

It can't be ALL muscle, surely!
