Curiouser and curiouser
Lúthien: *is caught by surprise when a strange creature appears in her room. It takes her a while but she finally manages to corner it while keeping Melui from getting at it.* Come now, little one, I'm not going to hurt you... *holding out some lettuce, because that's what she could grab in time*
Red panda: *sniffs Lúthien's hand*
Lúthien: That's it. Easy now. *offers it the food*
Red panda: *nibble*
Lúthien: *carefully tries to pet it*
Red panda: *grabs onto her hand*
Lúthien: *freezes!*
Red panda: *eats the lettuce*
Lúthien: *pets it gently* There now, you're a sweet thing, aren't you?
Red panda: *climbing her now*
Lúthien: ... *okay* *stands with it and helps it get up to her shoulders*
Red panda: *drapes like a scarf*
Lúthien: *grabs a few more pieces of lettuce and feeds them to it one at a time as she walks through the city to Eressil's shelter. Melui follows along faithfully.* Hello...?
Moa bird: *out on its walk with one of the keepers*
Lúthien: *stares in awe at it*
Moa bird: *sedately walks by her, incredibly tame*
Lúthien: *watches as it goes, stroking the fur of the panda on her shoulder*
Eressil: *bustling out, exercising another animal, that looks a lot like a hound on giant stick legs and a fox's face* Lúthien!
Lúthien: Eressil! I've found something that might interest you, my friend.
Eressil: *makes maned wolf sit and peers at Lúthien's shoulder* My goodness, what a handsome little fellow this one is.
Red panda: *stares back all chill*
Lúthien: He was in my room. I have no idea how he got there. Fortunately, he seems to prefer eating leaves over flesh.
Eressil: Stay here while I put this boy away and I'll take a good look at your friend. *goes off to return the maned wolf to its pen*
Lúthien: *waits patiently and tries coaxing the panda down from her shoulders into her arms*
Red panda: *cradled in Lúthien's arms by the time Eressil gets back*
Eressil: Okay, let's have a look at them. *brushes her fingers over the panda's fur, murmuring gentle words and starts her examination*
Lúthien: I don't know if he's tame, but if he isn't he's a very docile creature, indeed.
Eressil: Not sure he's ever had much to fear. He's got no injuries that I can find. And it's definitely a he.
Lúthien: I wonder where he came from. *sweetly, to the panda* Where did you come from, little one? Hmm?
Red panda: *yawns, showing its not very dangerous teeth*
Eressil: *gently keeps the jaws open to examine* well, this tells me what I'll need to try feeding it
Lúthien: I wouldn't be opposed to keeping him, but I fear that this type of creature is entirely outside my realm of knowledge. That and I don't know how he would get on with Melui if I weren't around.
Eressil: I don't think this little guy's a pet, just friendly. *gently takes him* I can find him a place here in my domain
Lúthien: *helps transfer it into Eressil's hands* Then I shall come and visit him often.
Eressil: come on. I'll show you where I think I'll put him, so you don't have to search me out when you get the urge. *leads her to an indoor area, protected from the elements filled with what seems like an indoor forest*
Lúthien: *follows after* It's lovely in here.
Eressil: Mhm. Judging from his feet, he's a climbing species so I'll be putting him where he has cover and trees to climb. *finds an empty pen, keeps the animals separated until she knows which ones won't fight each other and sets the panda inside*
Lúthien: *watches as he clambers up into a tree and curls up in the crook of a branch* Do you name them? Not only their species, but names to call them by.
Eressil: *nods* If I find a name that fits. Do you have one in name for this little one in mind?
Lúthien: *thinks for a moment* Rossthîr. *meaning 'copper face'* Not a creative name, perhaps, but I think it suits him.
Eressil: Then that will be his name.
Lúthien: *gives a little wave to the panda* Rossthîr. That is your name now. I hope you remember. *to Eressil* It's good that I knew to bring him here to you. Thank you for taking care of him.
Eressil: Come visit anytime. *grins at Lúthien* And if you want, I can always use volunteers to help me with the animals
Lúthien: I could do that. I serve on Turgon's council, but I have far too much free time.
Eressil: Then you're welcome to come and learn the ropes.
Lúthien: When should I start? *grins*
Eressil: Free right now?
Lúthien: *nods* Yes, I've no further engagements scheduled for today.
Eressil: Then come! We're exercising the animals and it's a perfect way to start. *leads Lúthien off*
Red panda: *sniffs Lúthien's hand*
