Turgon: *gives Idril3 a treat and heads to Finrod's rooms to pick him up for the bar*

Finrod: Hey!

Turgon: I've come to take you away to a magical place.

Finrod: Drinking? I could use a drink.

Turgon: Good, that's the plan. How's work?

Finrod: We've arrested some Rohirric guards as those who set that fire. There'll be a trial, of course, but it's all but case closed. So that's good.

Turgon: Not too fond of the fact that our own guards were committing crimes.

Finrod: Nor am I. Hence, I need wine. *nudges him*

Turgon: I get the hint. I do! Come on. *links his arm with Finrod's and heads to the Two Trees pub*

Finrod: And Lio's back, partly.

Turgon: Is that a reason to drink?

Finrod: No, not really! I am just giving you updates!

Turgon: Just checking. And if I have to find you more responsibilities around the city to keep you busy...

Finrod: I'll welcome a little break, frankly! Besides, I ran into your darling daughter and somehow ended up promising to help her plan some event or another. *grins*

Turgon: My perfect girl. *firmly*
Turgon: Ar's not so happy with me. I've informed her of her son's former future.

Finrod: You have? ...Why?

Turgon: She wanted to know why I was having trouble warming up to Maeglin at first and felt I should, well, tell her.

Finrod: Oh. *still not exactly comfortable with the way that whole...situation was handled; goes into the pub*

Turgon: She would have found out on her own eventually, right? *frowns*

Finrod: If she'd wanted to.

Turgon: *little nod* Well. Nicer topics. She'll get over it, right?

Finrod: Irissë? You had better hope! *finds them seats*

Turgon: *waves for a bottle of wine and two cups*

Finrod: So, how've you been?

Turgon: I've been better. *pours their drinks* But the city is functioning and that's what's important.

Finrod: *takes a sip* Something wrong?

Turgon: Just worrying about Ar, and little Mae. And wondering why I was all over Maglor when I was drunk the other night.

Finrod: *chokes a bit* I'm sorry, what?

Turgon: Well, attempted wrestling. I still haven't managed to kill that little elfling I used to be, I suspect. *glares at his wine like it's the wine's fault and takes a gulp*

Finrod: *slight eyebrow arch, but, well, does remember Turgon's childhood crush -- bffs after all* What about the human woman? Eowyn?

Turgon: She's wonderful, but busy with her daughter so I don't see her so often and it's JUST a bit of silliness with Maglor.

Finrod: Ah, I see.

Turgon: Feanorians are, as always, dumb.

Finrod: *snickers* I see.

Turgon: Completely! A more pompous group of cousins does not exist.

Finrod: *concedes* That is probably true.

Maglor: *comes into the pub*

Turgon: *doesn't notice and still going on about it* And it's easy to ignore, you know, doing things like that.

Finrod: Things like what?

Turgon: Hands all over Maglor and such. Just weird leftover crush impulses.

Finrod: *spots Maglor* Of course...

Turgon: And it was just a silly childhood crush.

Finrod: *nudges with his foot*

Turgon: *talking about how nice Maglor's hair was now*

Maglor: *has spied them and made his way over* Hello, cousins!

Turgon: *frozen*

Finrod: Hello, Maglor!

Maglor: Am I interrupting?

Finrod: No, hardly...

Turgon: Hi. Hello.

Maglor: Hello, Turgon.
Bartender: *gets a third glass when Maglor sits*

Turgon: Didn't know you came here.

Maglor: Occasionally! I like to people watch, sometimes.

Turgon: Oh.

Finrod: *how amusing, considering their prior conversation* Have some wine. *pours, since Turgon seems a bit dumbstruck, topping up Turgon's glass as well, and a little in his own*

Turgon: *drinks quickly*

Maglor: Thanks. *takes a sip*

Turgon: *loosening up now that the wine's hitting him* People watching?

Maglor: Yeah. Bars are interesting!

Finrod: *glances at Turgon*

Turgon: Yes, they're nice.
Turgon: We were just talking about you, really.

Maglor: Oh really?

Turgon: Oh yes. Just you know, thoughts about you back when we were younger.

Maglor: Your favourite song? *grins*

Turgon: *pinks just slightly* Yes, things like that.

Finrod: I ought to get home. I'll leave you to it!

Turgon: *damn you! expression*

Finrod: *just a little bit evil! grins* Have a good night!

Maglor: So soon?

Finrod: *shrugs apologetically* It's been long days at work.

Maglor: *nods* Ah, of course.

Turgon: I can entertain you...

Finrod: *waves and heads out*

Maglor: Oh, can you? As I recall, you like to be dreadfully boring....

Turgon: Rude!

Maglor: *grins* Sorry.

Turgon: And here I was having FOND memories.

Maglor: You were a cute kid. *winks*

Turgon: And a handsome youth.

Maglor: Oh, were you? *feigns thoughtfulness* I didn't notice.

Turgon: Really? *disappointed tone*

Maglor: But, I suppose you didn't turn out ugly as an adult. *grin*

Turgon: I am no longer remotely happy to see you, *little 'I am drunk and silly' huff and drinks his wine*

Maglor: I expect nothing less! *refills both their glasses with the last of the bottle*

Turgon: Hmph! *sips* who are you watching tonight?

Maglor: Everyone. I didn't expect to see you here. What's brought you out?

Turgon: I was SUPPOSED to be spending time with that coward Finrod.

Maglor: Coward?

Turgon: *drunken handwave* Oh, he knows what he did.

Maglor: Working even your best friend too hard!

Turgon: Him and Lio, I multi-friend...

Maglor: And yet here you are with me!

Turgon: You can be my friend too. Even if you are a Fëanorian.

Maglor: *amused* Thanks. *orders them more drinks*

Turgon: Why're you all so arrogant?

Maglor: It's genetic. You have it too. *slides a drink towards him*

Turgon: No! You take that back! *accepts the drink* I am as humble as I am handsome and efficient.

Maglor: *laughs* Yes, yes.

Turgon: With history changed, Maglor, it won't be about how I was killed. It will be about how my filing system changed all of Arda.

Maglor: *snickers* I'm sure!

Turgon: Isn't that a better future? I can live as long as you did now...

Maglor: Indeed. If you do, you'll adore databases.

Turgon: Tell me about them. That word sounds wonderful. *it translated to something in Sindarin for him*

Maglor: *tells him about databases*

Turgon: *dreamy look, slowly turning into a dreamy look at Maglor's Maglorness*

Maglor: Maybe you'll be the one that creates them.

Turgon: I'm going to make an appointment with the house of artificers tomorrow.

Maglor: *chuckles*

Turgon: We could be doing so much more with the phone network..

Maglor: You need to get out more, cousin mine!

Turgon: I get out! I'm out right now! With you!
Turgon: *thinking about that face*

Maglor: More! *teasing*

Turgon: Like what?

Maglor: Weekly.

Turgon: I'd need a weekly reason.

Maglor: The reason is getting away from the office!

Turgon: I can't just walk outside without a reason. It's inefficient.

Maglor: *short laugh* Inefficient! You'll be inefficient if you get fat like Salgant.

Turgon: Salgant is very efficient at pissing me off.

Maglor: *grins* Oh really? More or less efficient than I am?

Turgon: You're special.

Maglor: *winks* Damn right.

Turgon: *quick wide smile and looks down at his drink*

Maglor: Sooooo...

Turgon: Soooo what?

Maglor: I heard something intriguing, earlier tonight.

Turgon: Hmm, such as?

Maglor: Something about my gorgeous hair?

Turgon: Oh wow look at the time.

Maglor: 10:30?

Turgon: Should get going. *stands up, banging his knee* Augh!

Maglor: You alright? You sure?

Turgon: Yes. Very. *turns quickly and walks out, forgetting he's giving Maglor the bill*

Maglor: *well, if he wasn't sure before, is rather sure now; not bothered about having to pick up the tab*



Well, that explains a lot about what happened the other night. It is a little surprising, but I suppose in hindsight it shouldn't be. Still, this infatuation is an intriguing piece of information. Now, what to do with it...
