There is time enough to seek my kin. To know they are safe is enough. However I encourage you to choose these "memes" wisely. Should certain situations arise, I trust you will recall what my heart desires.

[Her gaze is pointed, knowing.]

The whims of Men do not interest me.

We will always be with you, my darling. You know that well, I think.

[She reaches and brushes a hand through her daughters hair before leaning forward and pressing a kiss to her forehead.] And I doubt very much your desires will be so easily cast aside.

Nana... [Tears glisten in her eyes and she reaches out her arms.] I carry little concern for myself. But I'd rather not betray those I love.

[Or her own conscience.]

[silvergift]

[Gathering her close with a smile, savoring the company of her daughter. So long, it's been so long.] I know that you would not. Please though, you are my greatest concern. I would want you happy and comfortable.

[theeveningstar]

[She is not too old to return her mother's embrace. This is a joy she will never out-grow.]

I am happy to see you. [So happy the tears won't stop.] Does your Mun leave you in peace?

[silvergift]

[Never too old. Celebrían is thousands of years old and she still enjoys holding onto her own mother, laying against her.]

I am happy to see you as well, my darling. [She brushes away the tears.] She does not, unfortunately. I am in two places, a world at war and a city called 'Ruby.' Though the only ruby in this place is an obelisk.

[Arwen is over two thousand years old, yet she too finds comfort in Celebrian's and Elrond's arms when the world becomes difficult. She smoothes a hand over her mother's pale hair, blue eyes filled with warmth and affection.]

Is Ada with you? [Concern covers her joy and she tilts her head.] He would make your trials easier to endure.

[silvergift]

[Sometimes she wonders if it's something they ever grow out of. A parents embrace is always a comfort, they've known the world longer, it feels safe in their arms.]

In the Ruby City, yes. He and I arrived there together. Your grandparents are with me in the war. [She brushes a hand through Arwen's hair.] Worry not, my darling. I am safe.
