ataraxion?

[pipeweed]

What's this? You'll be bringing me someplace else, aside from the city I'm currently in? And many of my friends are already there?

...well. I can't say I'm opposed to this bright idea of yours - though I do have a question, Lady Mundane.

What's a space ship?

'Twould be a great boon to see you there, Master Meriadoc.

[pipeweed]

I was told it was all your Mun's doing, Strider. Or should I call you, 'Your Majesty'? 'Your Highness'? ....King Aragorn?

[therangerking]

[ A low chuckle. ]

You have called me by Strider all through our journey, Merry. I see no need for change.

[ A beat. ] Aye, it is her doing, but 'tis not something I would fault her for.

[pipeweed]

Just as I will not fault my mun for being weak for giving in, this time.

...on second thought, I'll never fault her for wanting to do more things. Just as long as it's with me.

[snaketrap]

I'm sure your friends with writhe in delight.

[pipeweed]

I'm not certain about anyone writhing - though I would be most flattered and impressed with them, if they did.

[snaketrap]

Was not spoken in poor tongue. Many trials are experienced here.
I feel a friend would be a great comfort.

[pipeweed]

What sorts of trials?

[noblefive]

[If you think normal humans are tall, Merry, have a 7'8" armoured space marine.]

Take it you're not one who's used to space travel, huh?

[pipeweed]

[ gosh, dude, why so tall. ]

I'm afraid the only traveling I'm familiar with are by land - on foot, on a pony, or on a horse, even!

[noblefive]

[You're the one who's small. |:]

Well, you know when you look at the stars? A space ship is a ship that travels in those stars.

[pipeweed]

[ you cannot pin this on me :| ]

Does it have wings, then?

[temptedbypower]

I fear I know not the answer to your question either, Master Meriadoc.

It does sound troubling, however.

[pipeweed]

It does, doesn't it? And the knowledge that our friends are bearing these troubles... it's even more troubling!

[temptedbypower]

Yes, I will admit to being worried. Unfortunately, the chances of this... mundane ever allowing me to assist are incredibly slim.

[pipeweed]

Why is that, if I may ask?

THREADJACKING IDGAF I'VE BEEN WANTING A BOROMIR FOR SO LONG COME TO ME

[therangerking]

[ Aragorn's breath hitches. On his arms are Boromir's vembraces, and he clenches his hands so they do not shake. ]

Boromir. [ Softly. Startled. ]

I had not thought I would hear your voice once more.

/is dusting him off and in need of dire canon review. >.>;

[temptedbypower]

Aragorn.

[Even though he was used to not being dead, it was still... hard to see members of the Fellowship. Especially after what he had done.]

That is the magic of this place, is it not?

do it and come to us /shrieking

[therangerking]

I had heard of Men coming back from the dead, but 'tis different when it is a friend.

[ An urging: you're forgiven, you have retained your honour. ]

[bereth]

It is a ship that travels above and beyond the sky and through the stars, Master Meriadoc.

[pipeweed]

My lady! You're also in it?

alkwjfelakjalkwjela my goodness hullo

[ringbearer]

[ it's very hard not to smile when facing the prospect of one's cousin arriving ]

I imagine it will be quite a sight for you to see, cousin. We are quite high above the clouds here.

FROBROOOO

[pipeweed]

I've been told as much, Frodo! A ship that has wings and can fly! Why, I never thought such a thing exists!

MERRYBROooo000oooooooooooooo yeah lets that roll

[ringbearer]

Neither did I. It certainly wasn't something any of us expected, and I doubt I shall ever get used to it.
[ and he laughs a little, and that's something because it is rather hard to laugh these days. but it's as he expected, talking with merry again, just knowing he's well and somewhere--that leaving without them was the right choice after all. it does ease his heart. ]
I'll admit I've imagined the look on you and Pippin's faces should chance allow you to see it. There's quite a lot to explore.

:Db

[pipeweed]

But can we explore it? [ because you do know that exploring = touching/turning/eventually destroying everything in their quest to understand, right ]
