RE: Blind dates

[keeps_count]

I'd say I've dealt with everything you've done to me surprisingly well but having me signed up to be placed on a blind date was a bit too far and, admittedly, absurd. Especially when you plotted to have me paired with Gimli.

Are he and I not close enough friends? Do we not already spend enough time together? If anything, Gimli and I will spend time hunting or challenging each other to a monster killing contest.

Really mundane, your sense of humor is incredibly different from my own.

At least you aren't killing me again. A few months, or more preferably, without dying will be a blessing.

... And please don't let those boys reveal my heritage. I'd prefer to not have everyone suddenly know my station.

...You and the dwarf?

[keeps_count]

Yes, it seems so. Gimli and I are set to be paired together as blind dates.

[marchwarden]

As friendly as you are with the dwarf, I cannot say I approve of this "date".

[keeps_count]

I don't approve of it as a date either. Gimli and I are friends only, despite what "fangirls" may wish.

[marchwarden]

They wish for this to happen? My word, all of Mirkwood would be in a great uproar if you were to invite that dwarf to be your lover.

[keeps_count]

Apparently so.

[Whyyyyy?]

Oh yes, it would be. My father might even disown if it were to really happen.

[ Just the thought of the Elvenking staring wide-eyed at this unholy union of Elf and Dwarf makes the marchwarden chuckle softly. ]

Shall you give Lord Thranduil another reason to hate Dwarves?

[ /snicker ]

[keeps_count]

I'm not sure that he needs a reason from me, as these 'ships' appear to be common amongst fans.

[You're enjoying this far to much, Haldir.]

[marchwarden]

Ships?

[ He arches his brow a little. ]

What do you mean, mellonamin?

[keeps_count]

If I'm gathering the correct information from her other muses, it seems that 'ships' are when they grasp at straws to make a relationship possible.

... Oh Iluvatar, she's thought of my father and Lord Elrond...

[Brb, going to kill himself.]

[marchwarden]

...

[ The warden actually pales when he heard that.]

What in the name of the Valar are these fools doing?! We best to pray that your father never hears of such blasphemy or risk being put to death for even speaking of this.

[keeps_count]

Finding amusement in the most ridiculous things, I'm sure.

I have already prayed and continue to do so, my friend.
