Winter festival is here!

[gondoevents]

Despite the many, many distractions on the part of the people who presumably run this city, the Winter Festival is here!

Too warm for ice skating, but there is an ice sculpture contest as well as the usual animals on display (this year we have a walrus), and the many many different kinds of festival food!

Also available are many vendor booths, very good if you want a special winter coat or some other craftwork.

Oh, Lio. I'm going to give you the answer I want to, and then the mature answer.

*takes Lio's arm* I would never ask you to kill Celegorm. I would put that on my own calendar under 'me time.'

Okay, real answer. I didn't think spying on me with a cat was death-worthy. Especially since it was just to see if I was with his brother. But there wasn't actually any other word for it, until we settled on stupidity.

Is THIS why you went all quiet during that?

[ecthelion_of_gondolin]

When you called it treason, and said you didn't want to deal with it yourself... what else was I supposed to think?

[turgonthewise]

Well, that I hate dealing with Celegorm, I thought. Lio! We're best friends! I'd never do that to you.

And when I said those things about Maglor stopping me, I meant that he didn't want me to get into a huge fight with his brother. I just... used hyperbole. Like I usually do about my cousin.

Are you okay? I'm sorry.

[ecthelion_of_gondolin]

Treason isn't hyperbole, Turu.

[turgonthewise]

Well, no, I know that. But it was a minor treason, like I was trying to say. I was joking with the death comments because that seems to be how I visualize Celegorm.

You've got to understand I would never, ever, ask that of you. Ever.

[ecthelion_of_gondolin]

*nods* Okay. Thanks for clearing it up.

[turgonthewise]

Ah, I think I see Idril! Off I go. Don't go panicking anymore, okay?

*hurries off to see his daughter*
