Lost in Rivendell, Lost in Thought

Mar 19, 2004 20:34

My dearest Pippin, Diamond wrote in her journal. I am so weary that I ache. I have not slept for two days; now, it is all I think about! I feel like I could drift away even as I am writing these words ( Read more... )

Having left Joxer alone for a little bit, knowing the mortal needed some time to sort his thoughts out, Bliss decided to wander around Rivendell for a time. Following the feeling of sadness, he came upon the young woman.

Not wanting to scare her, Bliss clears his throat and gets a bit of a smile on his face. "Hello, I'm Bliss... do you need any help?" He says nothing about the tear tracks that are on her face, but he carefully keeps his wings folded behind him.

Diamond tried to compose herself, but to no avail. I'm terribly homesick, is all. I've been away from my family for weeks and I miss them so.

Once she starts speaking, the words pour out of her faster and faster. For most of the journey, she managed to keep most of her worries to herself, but now they all come tumbling out.

And I'm dreadfully worried about my husband, too. I got a message from him saying that he was near Mirkwood, but that was so long ago! And I was attacked by a warg in Mirkwood and all I can think of now is that my poor dear husband was all alone in Mirkwood and now he's been gobbled up by wargs! And my poor little boy is all alone.

Giving Diamond a hug, just because he feels the need to, he listens to her pour her heart out.

"I'm sure your little boy knows his mommy is coming home to him, and loves him very much." Bliss smiled softly, "As for your husband, I'm sure he's safe and sound." He wonders absently what wargs were. "Will you be heading home soon?"

Home! glints_on_snow March 30 2004, 18:14:18 UTC

Yes, I will be going home very soon. Once I know that Iolaus' friend is safe and well, there will be nothing to keep me here.

A shadow moves across the window... terrible_dragon March 25 2004, 05:36:47 UTC

As Diamond wanders around trying to find her way, she enters a large, airy, but empty room with large windows which look out onto the gardens. As she looks over at the window, a shadow falls across it, as though a great cloud had covered the sun... but the sun is still shining brightly on the flowers in the garden! The shadow is within the room! Whirling around, Diamond sees the strangest sight: floating in the air before her, apparently solid (for it casts a shadow, after all) but cut off at the neck as though all the rest were invisible, is the disembodied head of Smaug, the Dragon! It is not so strange after all, as in just such a manner did he appear to her before; but Diamond had thought never to see the old wyrm again! As soon as she looks, the head speaks.

Hello, little Hobbit! I am a little late, I know, but I have come to give you my thanks for your present. I am only sorry that I could not greet you properly when you arrived; but I was sleeping. Dragons sleep long and deeply, I fear. *he grins*

Ooh! Smaug! How lovely to see you!

Diamond looks around quickly to see if any of the elves are nearby. Should you be here? What if the elves see you? Well, see your head at any rate?

Then I will simply vanish! *chuckles* They cannot harm me here, neither can I harm them more is the pity...

I have tried your Cleve, and I was greatly impressed. Its effect was... inflammatory. I have been wondering whether I could use it as ammunition to increase the power of my breath, but could not carry all those barrels into battle with me!

*Looks at you intently*
Little Hobbit... you were not trying to blow me up, were you?

Re: A shadow moves across the window... glints_on_snow March 25 2004, 07:51:16 UTC

Blow you up? Why...oooh! *puts her hand over her mouth and gives Smaug a mortified expression*

You know, it didn't really occur to me, but if you through alcohol onto a fire, it blazes up something fierce! Did you breath fire on it? Oh my! That must hae been quite impressive! But no, no! I wasn't trying to blow you up at all!

Aside from the ...blowing up part, it was to your liking, then? I'm so glad! Perhaps one day you could try some ale or a mug of good beer! Between you and me, if I was going to use any alcohol as ammunition, I'd use the beer 'cause I don't care for it much, and I'd save The Cleeve for drinking!
