He's been asking after me when I ain't around. When I saw him, he made me laugh. I mean, he ain't bad on the eye either. So! I be chatting to the man, not about much when there was this right angry dwarf, white hair and all who starts trying to pick a fight! Well, I wasn't about to mince me words and I told him what I thought! That I had seen better beards than his! Which is true actually! This led to him getting angrier and me rushing over to see someone special as me company handled the angry one.
Mister Blid be back! Oh I were so happy to see him! Not a scratch I could see either which were a relief, and bless, he even got me a gift! Beautiful it be as well. Earrings that he and his brother fashioned, yellow jasper and silver I think it be, to look like flowers, so beautiful! Yellow flowers, I still have the one in me book and the other on the shelf that Elias gave me, and now these! I said I'd be wearing them when next we meet as he and Maddoct will be having tea at me home to talk about all that has happened of late, and in private because I know at least Mister Blid wants to talk about Elias. He were a bit worried about what be happening with the pretty lad and the dwarf, so we kept our distance. Their clothes were coming off and there were a fight! Though it didn't last long, but I know Mister Blid were just as interested in it as I, probably more so that we didn't get his by a flying tankard! I ain't ever seen so much flesh! The lad? Well I have to say I could stare at what he had all day, the dwarf though? Now that were enough to put me off my supper for days on end! He were impressive, not the dwarf, the other one. All calm, manly, standing his ground. I'll tell him when I see him next. There were me other dwarf friend, trying to calm the angry one down, though standing at his side in the fight. I'm just glad no proper harm were done, except maybe to Mister Blids and me own eyes!
Mister Blid had spoken to Elias, though were a bit tight lipped on what were said. I doubt it were good but, I'll know soon enough, and sweeten whatever words with a hearty apple and blackberry pie, honey cake, cheese scones, spit roast ham and ale, lots and lots of ale.
I miss the man, all this talk on food always makes me worry that he ain't eating, I know he don't like how he looks, there were shame, embarrassment. I want him to feel good about himself and not do anything daft like that time he didn't eat and ended up getting hurt. When he comes back, I'll see that he has something, regardless what happens. He ain't a child, he be a man and he proved that to me, my did he prove it! A strange man, but a man, though he ain't as responsible as he makes out, forgets to take care of himself properly, though I ain't his Ma either, I know that, but wanting him happy, healthy? It's what he wants for me, and it be what I want for him, even if it drives him crazy when I be saying I want him happy. I saw happiness though, I think, or contentment, or something. Mister Blid thinks he might have just been following instructions, doing things the way he has read them because he thinks that be the way, we'll see, some of those things I know didn't come from any book. I told him maybe he has two, three, more people running around his mind, as if he be one way with me, another with others, then again it don't explain how he were on that journey.
Bailey has decided to start bringing in mice. She don't kill them, just carries them in and drops them down at me feet, then the buggers run off and she has to go hunt them again! I don't mind, she be going by instinct, but I do feel for the mice, they don't stand a chance, always being toyed with, only to die by being scared to death or having their heads bit off. Reminds me of a lass who used to be in Bree a fair bit, cant remember her name though. I know the dwarves will be wanting a cuddle up with Bailey, so I think I'll try giving her a bath.
