i reeeaally shouldn't, but i'll indulge myself. homeless i don't even x_x

[tofindthesun]

I would that you at least have the sense to refrain from placing me near the sea, mundane.

Better yet, let me remain at Ithilien! Do not place me anywhere at all.

I'm with you there, I don't even know with this guy xD

[cheese_for_everyone]

Where would the fun be in that?

[tofindthesun]

Gallivanting off with the others, I presume.

[cheese_for_everyone]

Gallivanting is a fine pass time. Though I tend to leave that to mortals. Maybe I should follow a Hero, that would be interesting.

[tofindthesun]

I would pick my hero carefully, were I you.

[cheese_for_everyone]

I don't see why. If they die it isn't my problem. Unless of course I wanted them to become me.

[tofindthesun]

Perhaps we have different understandings of fun.

[iorhael]

Therein lies the danger of getting too comfortable, I should think. I think you might be a hobbit in secret.

[tofindthesun]

I fear your houses would be too small for this hobbit, Frodo.

[iorhael]

Yes, and I don't think the other hobbits would look too kindly on you attempting to build a hobbit hole in a tree!

[tofindthesun]

That would be an accomplishment, wouldn't it? I might be the first hobbit to dwell above ground rather than in it. A hobbit-elf, I would be.

[iorhael]

An accomplishment I think Hobbiton would find the elves too prepared to handle, if you can build such magnificent flets to begin with.

The first hobbit-elf, it sounds like an honor.

[tofindthesun]

The flets of my homeland are not as lavish as those of Lórien, but they should be sufficient enough. I do not think they would be good for storage, though.

[iorhael]

The fact you live in a tree at all would be both lavish and outlandish enough for most hobbits. Although you are right, there is a problem with storage.

[tofindthesun]

It is also harder to find pebbles from the treetops. [luckily he's managed to not be on the receiving end of any hobbit-thrown rocks, though not for lack of attempts.] Mayhap your folk are better on the ground after all; let the hobbit-elf watch them from above.

[65th]

Not a fan of the waters, I take it?

[tofindthesun]

Nay, I would love the sea.. if I could.

[65th]

'If you could'? That sounds rather ominous.

From my experience, most people would look at the sea and either love it or hate it. No gray areas.

[tofindthesun]

It is not gray, but both black and white.

[madcuriosity]

Whatever is wrong with the sea?

[tofindthesun]

I would rather say that everything is right with it! Only that I cannot yet bear to be near it.

[madcuriosity]

Why not?

[tofindthesun]

It is the sound of home, but I cannot go. I would not go.

[masterholbytla]

Oh, but think of what's waiting for you out there!

[tofindthesun]

But I have a forest to tend to, Master Brandybuck!

[he can't help but smile though. oh, merry.]

[masterholbytla]

The forest can wait, I think. Adventures, however, do not.

[ because obvs. he knows about these things ]

[tofindthesun]

Aye, it can. But a forest that needs planting cannot wait longer than it already has. Mayhap you could go on my share of adventures as well.

[wise master meriadoc!!]

[masterholbytla]

But one cannot find a finer wielder of bow and arrows! I'm sure I will find myself all the more safer with you with us.

[tofindthesun]

I worry for you, Merry, for it sounds as though you are intending to head into dangerous places.

[masterholbytla]

Oh, indeed I am filled with all kinds of intent! One cannot contain a Hobbit like me to safer places, after all. Not after all we have been through!

...well, one other than my mun, that is.

[barrelrider]

The sea! Oh, that sounds...big! Too big, even. Quite right staying right where you are, I'd think!

[tofindthesun]

Aye, it is very big, Master Hobbit, even for us Big Folk. Alas! it bears the sounds of home that I can no longer hope to unhear.

[barrelrider]

[Bilbo is going try to make a very, very valiant effort to picture what could be so big that even Big Folk are impressed with its excessive bigness.

He might even get a little red in the face, if he's out of breath just at the very idea of it!

Well! I suppose you could...I don't know, maybe take a holiday. Make that two holidays.

Because mirror selves is funny?

[elf_ofthe_9]

I do not believe many of these mundanes have sense when it comes to us. Although I understand your concern of the sea, quite well.

clones 'u' yeaaah

[tofindthesun]

I have not known mine long enough to know for sure, but I have little doubt that the sea-side is where I will end up, sooner or later.

Yesss

[elf_ofthe_9]

Most likely. If mine had not thought a haunted house far more hysterical, I imagine she would have sent me to somewhere near an ocean too.

[tofindthesun]

A haunted house sounds far easier to live with.. though I am sure I will not be granted such a luxury.

[elf_ofthe_9]

It would be well if it was. Unfortunately, the place seems to have the motive only to harm it's residents, in any way it can.
