still homeless.

[longshanks]

You find me most days in no mood for jests such as this. Lead me where there is need of my skills, there cannot be so great a number of lands that it confuses you so.

Think on it again.

[cheese_for_everyone]

But jests are some of the most things you mortals do!

[longshanks]

Time in part for some, yes. Not all.

[cheese_for_everyone]

Mm I think all jests are good in their own way.

[longshanks]

Then you have more free days than most men.

[eyeofthetigress]

Are you for real?

[longshanks]

I hope so, my lady.

[eyeofthetigress]

What?

Who even talks like that anymore?

[elf_ofthe_9]

Good to see you again, my friend. Your mun is still looking?

[longshanks]

Aye, does the search ever end? You have found yourself a home, I trust.

[elf_ofthe_9]

If home you would call it. A haunted one, sadly, with strange properties. Frodo is there, and he has not yet met me from the time he exists.

[iorhael]

Are you ever really in a mood for jest or games though, Strider?

[longshanks]

In good company, perhaps.

[iorhael]

Good company, good food, and good cheer? I think it could be arranged, at least the good food and good cheer.

[never get a hobbit started on food, more so if he becomes the host. Strider could do with more good, hobbit food, and less of the stringy Ranger food he keeps insisting on!]

[shieldarm]

I am sure that there are a number of lands which would benefit from your presence, my lord.

[longshanks]

My lady.

[ A polite nod. ]

I had thought to find myself benefiting in turn.

[shieldarm]

[ she bows her head briefly ]

An endeavour perhaps a shade more difficult, given the nature of most of these worlds. I am sure it can be done, nonetheless.

[tofindthesun]

Too much thinking and you may be doomed to remain a wanderer, Aragorn.

[longshanks]

Not enough and I may never see the light of day, my friend.

[tofindthesun]

Such is fitting for one as grim and dark as you are. But you will have the path to the sun eventually, be it found or made.

[masterholbytla]

Ah! I was wondering when you'd show up, my lord!

[longshanks]

Merry.

[ That faint exasperation? No, you must be imagining it, Aragorn never wonders what this young hobbit has been up to. Nope. ]

Have I kept you waiting long?

[ Should he practice his curtsy, great and merciful lord? ]

[masterholbytla]

Not too long, I think - but with so many familiar faces around, I did think it's only a matter of time before you came around.

[ also what are you talking about he's been very, very quiet and behaved hdu. ]

Hope a LOTR: Online character is okay...

[ambitiouslynamed]

[She tilts her head.] Even in the most tranquil of places, there's need of Bounders an' Rangers. I'm sure your biographer will find something sir!

Sure!

[longshanks]

Is that what you are, a bounder?

Re: Sure!

[ambitiouslynamed]

[She smiles with all her little hobbit pride and tips her cap. She's so proud of it and the two feathers stuck in the band around it.] Was. Still am in someways. I was tapped by the big folk though, to help keep their bounds with...whatcha call them...the Lonely Lands?
