Well, it's time for the two big events at the Spring Festival! Me catching Turu a fish, and me giving a speech! Which do you think is more highly anticipated? I'll give you a hint: it's not the one where I talk. ;)

Turgon: *kisses Lio's cheek*
Ecthelion: *smiles* Hi boss.
Turgon: I'm stealing you away
Ecthelion: Where to?
Turgon: the fish booth
Ecthelion: Sounds good.
Turgon: I want one with spots
Ecthelion: Let's see what we can find.

Turgon: *leads him to the fish booth*
Ecthelion: *goes with him* Lots of fish!
Turgon: quite the crop. *holds a bowl* I'm sure you'll definitely get one
Ecthelion: *looks for a good fish*
Turgon: *spots one he likes* that one. The king chooses that one!
Ecthelion: Okay! *works to catch it*
Turgon: *cheers, but not too loudly because DIGNITY*
Ecthelion: *fast little sucker*
Turgon: Come and be the royal fish!
Ecthelion: *finally scoops him up* There!
Turgon: *holds out the bowl!*
Ecthelion: *drops the royal fish in*
Turgon: hello, new fish. *looks at him* or should I say... Idril4
Turgon: Just kidding. I name all my fish after you
Turgon: Lio23
Ecthelion: It's a nice tribute. *grins*
Turgon: I believe in honouring my loved ones
Ecthelion: Thanks, Turu.
Turgon: I should refind my da--friend and get ready for your speech on stage.
Ecthelion: Your date, you say? *winks*
Turgon: hush, you. Where's yours?
Ecthelion: He's around. Going to listen to my speech. Said he'd be in the front row.
Turgon: are you going to move out when you're healed?
Ecthelion: ... we haven't really spoken about it.
Turgon: I'm just going to point out your house is much nicer, so you should bring that up if the topic... arises
Ecthelion: *smiles* Well, it's bigger.
Turgon: You'd have to Huanproof it
Ecthelion: True, true...
Turgon: *this is as much approval as he's giving* Come on, let's go get ready to preside
Ecthelion: Okay... *still walking a little slowly*
Turgon: *offers his arm*
Ecthelion: *takes it, leaning just a bit*
Turgon: I wanted you to use a wheeled chair for the festival, but Celegorm shouted me down
Ecthelion: It's okay. I'm not doing too badly.
Turgon: you sure? I'll be very put out if you rupture something and die on stage
Ecthelion: I will not, I promise. *grins*
Turgon: *gets him up there, waving Eowyn to join them*
Eowyn: *has been sitting in the front row, waiting; joins them, a bit flustered*
Ecthelion: *rather relieved she's NOT in the audience or would have to picture her naked, and that seems a bit... disrespectful*
Celegorm: *finds a seat on the front row and grins*
Ecthelion: *sees him and grins back, flushing just a little with the "think of the audience naked" bit*
Turgon: *quiet* what's with the blush?
Turgon: do you need to sit down?
Ecthelion: No! I'm fine! Just ... want to get this done.
Turgon: *holds out his arms and calls everyone to attention*
Eowyn: *looks around with interest*
Ecthelion: *listens to Turgon's opening remarks; ready for his speech*
Turgon: *trying not to spill his goldfish while he gives his own speech* ..and with that, the captain of the guard will tell us what to expect this season of renewal. *frowns as he notices a plume of smoke, but no one seems to be panicking*
Celegorm: *notices the blush and uncrosses his legs with a grin*
Ecthelion: *steps forward, trying not to look at Celegorm, and clears his throat, and begins his speech* First, I want to thank all the citizens of Gondolin for their patience and assistance during the past several months... *distracted - is that smoke?*
Turgon: *quietly* whatever it is, it'll be dealt with.
Celegorm: *watches, noticing Lio is distracted, glances around*
Turgon: *very clearly keeping calm, it's not a HUGE plume*
Eowyn: *notices the smoke, but thinks it might be part of the of the festival, since Turgon is not really concerned*
Ecthelion: *goes on with his speech, but keeps an eye on the smoke*
Turgon: *gets off the stage once it's all over* Eowyn, I must leave you, things to check up on. *calling Gel and getting no answer*
Eowyn: I'll go with you. I could be of assistance.
Ecthelion: I'm coming too.
Turgon: no, you're not allowed to work, or so Celegorm keeps telling me. *looks to Eowyn* It will probably be boring, but I wouldn't say no to the company
Eowyn: *nods* Well, just in case, I should come.
Ecthelion: *frowns* It wouldn't be working, I would just be seeing what's going on.
Turgon: can't have Celegorm threatening me. *teasing, just a little*
Ecthelion: *can tell he's teasing; shakes his head and goes to talk to Celegorm*
Turgon: *goes with Eowyn*

It's not really working if I just go to look, right? >.>
