My life is small cute things punctuated with crisis

Lio's out of commission and I'm trying not to phone him TOO often, but it's hard. He sounds like he's enjoying Celegorm's company which is making my skin crawl. I mean, yes, yay, my best friend has happiness but it's like a scheme concocted by my enemies. You know. Celegorm.

Ar's mostly forgiven me for keeping her out of the loop about the city, so score. Un-score: she wants involved in it. Of course, keeping her locked away in a tower is what got her into her mess in the first place.

Kid's cute. Love the kid. I hope he doesn't grow up evil.



Turgon: *babysitting Maeglin in his office*

Idril: *comes to see him and possibly take Maeglin off his hands* Daaaad!

Turgon: Idril, darling. Take a seat, I'll be ready for you in just a moment

Idril3: *bark bark bark!*


Idril: okay. *picks up the puppy and sits, cuddling it* Hey, Mae!

Maeglin: hihihi! *stands up in his playpen to wave at his cousin*

Turgon: it's so good seeing you get along with Idril3

Idril: Dad, seriously, give him a new name! *pets the puppy's head, but reaches over to ruffle Mae's hair with a grin*

Turgon: it's a good name!

Maeglin: *grabs her hand and giggles*

Idril: It's my name! *sticks her tongue out at him and scoops Mae up to cuddle*

Turgon: you can share!

Idril: Nope! *snuggles the kid*

Idril3: *pushes at Maeglin with tiny paws, Idril was HIS seat*

Idril: *laughs as she watches that and pets Idril3's head*

Maeglin: *grabs the puppy for a hug*

Idril3: *eyes get buggier*

Turgon: okay, time to rescue *scoops up his dog* Maeglin, you need to be careful with puppies

Maeglin: huh?

Idril: He means you can't squish the puppy. *kisses Mae's forehead*

Maeglin: but is fun

Idril: Why don't you squish me?

Maeglin: *hugs her!*

Idril: *grins and hugs back, squeezing him*

Turgon: and how's life in the city, daughter?

Idril: It's good. I went back to the zoo, and I've been visiting the shops.

Turgon: any boys?

Idril: Why do you keep asking that, dad?

Turgon: you haven't got a mother, you need a parent you can 'girltalk' with

Idril: >.> aunt ar?

Turgon: >.> you don't think I'm good enough?

Idril: You're my dad!

Turgon: I know about boys!

Idril: You want to hear about my escapades with them?

Turgon: you have escapades?

Idril: >.> what if I did?

Turgon: escapades with who?

Idril: >.> boys!

Turgon: which boys?

Idril: why!

Turgon: just discussing!

Idril: Gel. And Yaban. And a few other elves!

Turgon: who's Yaban?

Idril: He's a historian! My human friend

Turgon: I thought you hated humans

Idril: daaaad, I told you I made friends with one!

Turgon: escapades friends?

Idril: Yup!

Turgon: and there's others?

Idril: Yeah, like I said - him, Gel, some other guys

Turgon: *blinks* that's a lot of escapades

Idril: You wanted to know! *totally using "escapades as hanging out dates*

Turgon: you're not overdoing it, are you?

Idril: What do you mean?

Turgon: too many escapades

Idril: How could I have too many?

Turgon: well, wouldn't it chafe?

Idril: What?

Turgon: all the escapades

Idril: Dad, why would they chafe?

Turgon: you know, from the rubbing

Idril: ...OH. Dad, do you think I'm sleeping with all of them?

Turgon: isn't that what you meant?

Idril: No, of course not!

Turgon: oh. Okay.

Idril: Why did you think that's what I was doing?

Turgon: that's what it sounded like!

Maeglin: *snoring, so bored*

Idril: It did not! I said "escapades", not "sleeping around with"!

Idril: *cuddles her cousin*

Turgon: I wasn't judging!

Idril: You should've seen your face, dad

Turgon: *sticks his tongue out at her*

Idril: *sticks hers right back* Hmph! Anyway, even if I was, would it be a problem?

Turgon: of course not.

Turgon: you're a grown elf, I trust you to make good choices.

Idril: But you're a grown elf and you make terrible fashion choices....

Turgon: My fashion is wonderful and that is completely different.

Idril: How is it different! And no, no it isn't

Turgon: you're the judgemental one

Idril: I am not!

Turgon: for shame, Idril1

Idril: *pokes his arm* Hmph. So it's okay if I have multiple partners?

Turgon: it's your life. Just don't take up with anyone who'd betray the city, pretty much

Idril: I don't plan to, dad

Turgon: good *tugs her over to hug and steals Maeglin*

Idril: Hey!

Turgon: my baby now

Maeglin: *sleepflail*

Idril: Careful, dad!

Turgon: he's fine

Idril: hmph. How's uncle Lio?

Turgon: not dead. Go visit him

Idril: I will! But he went to his house

Turgon: just ignore Celegorm, that's the best tactic with that blowhard

Idril: *annoyed noise* Still

Turgon: think of your poor uncle Lio

Idril: hmph. I just don't want to be near him!

Turgon: you can take Idril3 for protection

Idril3: *licking his butt*

Idril: *stares at Idril3* ...dad, he couldn't protect an insect, much less me.

Turgon: he's pretty effective against Huan

Idril: Huan isn't the problem!

Turgon: so many complaints

Idril: *sighs* You should understand! I haven't even spoken to him!

Turgon: Just go see Lio. *hugs her*

Idril: mmmph. *holds onto him, Mae just a tad squished*

Maeglin: *squirms*

Idril: *kisses his head when she pulls away* So you've become quite fond of him, huh

Turgon: he's adorable, despite his other history

Idril: *nods* I'm glad you gave him another chance, though

Turgon: couldn't say no to a baby

Idril: yeah. He's tiny and adorable

Turgon: and so much potential

Idril: yeah. *kisses Turgon's cheek*

Turgon: now go, let me work. Take the infant

Idril: *laughs* okay. *takes Mae from him and heads out*
