festival time!

The summer festival has begun! Rides, snacks, and general festivities!



Melkor: *holding onto Eowyn's hand and wide-eyed at all the noise and rides* I want to do that one! No, wait, that one! Or that one!

Eowyn: *points to the carousel* Let's start here.

Melkor: mighty steeds! I want to go on the black one with wings! *getting louder*

Eowyn: Okay, you can. *amused*


Melkor: *climbs up happily, with a bit of leg kicking because it's built to elf size*

Eowyn: *watching*

Melkor: *holds on tight and waves to Eowyn quickly*

Melkor: *face suddenly changes from happy to upset*

Eowyn: *waves*

Eowyn: *wonders what's wrong*

Turgon: hello there, Eowyn

Eowyn: *turns* Oh, hello, King Turgon

Turgon: having fun?

Melkor: *whisked away as the carousel starts*

Eowyn: Yes. *watching Melly*

Eowyn: And you, your majesty?

Turgon: *gives Melkor a little 'please don't hate me I like your mother' wave*

Melkor: *tiny child fist shake*

Eowyn: *waves*

Turgon: I'm good. I've lost my date for the festival somewhere, but I expect I'll find him again. Until then, mind if I keep you company?

Eowyn: Not, I don't mind at all. *smiles* Who was your date?

Turgon: Finrod. I thought I wouldn't try to steal you away from your little girl

Melkor: *distracted by the roundabout now, pretending he's really flying along on a black pegasus*

Eowyn: Oh, I see.

Turgon: but I wish I hadn't *smiles down at her*

Eowyn: *smiles back*

Carousel: *stops eventually and Melkor tries to get down from the pegasus, not as easy as getting up*

Eowyn: *hurries up to help*

Melkor: *grabs onto Eowyn and whispers* don't let him get me

Eowyn: I promise, he won't.

Turgon: *waiting at the exit* would you two girls like ice cream?

Melkor: *holds very tight to Eowyn's hand, but looks very tempted*

Eowyn: That sounds very nice. Yes, please.

Melkor: can I have toppings? *little voice*

Turgon: of course!

Eowyn: *smiles*

Melkor: *maybe this elf will be okay if he doesn't realize, she thinks*

Turgon: *gets them treats and one for himself*

Melkor: *sits on a bench and works on cone with sprinkles*

Turgon: are you enjoying yourself here, Eowyn?

Eowyn: MMm, thank you.

Eowyn: Very much. It's a lovely festival.

Turgon: I mean here, in Gondolin.

Eowyn: *considers* Yes, I think so.

Turgon: *wide smile* good. Good. Glad to hear it

Melkor: *totally lost in small child ice cream bliss*

Turgon: I was wondering if you'd like to come to the palace for supper some day soon?

Eowyn: *nods* I'd like that, yes.

Turgon: Melly is welcome as well. If she wants to come

Eowyn: We'll see, but thank you. *smiles and licks her ice cream cone*

Turgon: *deals with their trash after, and points at the ferris wheel* do you want to try that? *to Melkor*

Melkor: *grabs Eowyn quickly, but nods*

Eowyn: I think we'll have to go together!

Turgon: great *grins* the baskets seat four. *gets them in line* Now, I still owe you a ride outside the city too, don't I?

Eowyn: You do!

Turgon: Hm. I should take a day off, take you for a ride and then dinner?

Eowyn: We could do that.

Turgon: a date then *helps the girls onto the ferris wheel, then sits across from them in the basket*

Melkor: *holds onto the sides and looks out as the ferris wheel jerks and starts moving*

Turgon: it gets pretty high, but it's perfectly safe

Eowyn: *keeps a firm grip on her shoulder*

Melkor: *huge eyes as they go up high* wow...

Turgon: *grins* I need to take my daughter on this one. She'd like it

Eowyn: *laughing* This is exciting!

Melkor: *moves to check out the other side, sitting in Eowyn's lap*

Turgon: there was almost a more exciting ride that involved a lot of spinning and racing along a track, but I thought that was a bit much

Eowyn: *holds on to her* Wow, you can see everything, can't you, Melly.

Melkor: is that our house? *points*

Eowyn: I think so!

Melkor: *waves and shouts* hey, Eddy!

Eowyn: *grins*

Turgon: *glad she's relaxing around him* Hm, I think I see my date out there. *points at Finrod in the crowd* Let's dodge him at the petting zoo next

Eowyn: He could join us, if you'd like!

Turgon: well... hm, it'd be polite. He's probably assuming I'm off adopting some new weird animal

Eowyn: ... is that likely?

Turgon: he talked me out of otters the other day

Melkor: *looks over* what's an otter?

Turgon: it's sort of like a large sea rat puppy dog

Melkor: can I have one?

Turgon: well, if the king can't...

Melkor: *pout*

Eowyn: No. And No.

Melkor: I guess Eddie's good

Eowyn: Eddie is GREAT. *firmly*

Melkor: he is!

Eowyn: So we don't need otters.

Turgon: You could get a toy one

Melkor: *twists around to face Turgon* where?

Turgon: oh, places. *planning*

Eowyn: A toy one would be okay, I think... *cautious*

Melkor: I don't got a lot of toys. I make stuff out of clay for myself!

Turgon: *looks at Eowyn in a silent 'can I give her a stuffed otter?' request*

Eowyn: *slight nod*

Melkor: *on the topic of crafts now* I make orcs and weapons for the orcs an-- *realizes what he's saying and shuts up with wide eyes*

Turgon: *raised eyebrows, but* creative!

Eowyn: She makes lots of things.

Turgon: I'll have to see them sometime.

Melkor: *runs off the ferris wheel when the ride ends towards where he saw the petting zoo*

Turgon: I'll find Finrod and catch up with you *smiles at Eowyn*

Eowyn: *nods* Okay.

Turgon: *bows and goes*

Finrod! Hey, Finrod!
