Conversation

Two men are sat on the floor, their backs against the wall. A tankard lies on the floor. pale-golden ale seeping through the floorboards where it fell. The first man, the blacksmith with brown hair pulled into a ponytail, still drinks from his tankard. The arms of the second one, the auburn-haired man, lie limp at his sides.

A thump on the door and the blacksmith, a brown-haired young man with loose hair down to his shoulders, glances up from his book. Clutching it in his hand, he rises. A cream-coloured dog skitters across the room and barks.

"Erm, who's there?"

His name is called and he frowns.

"How do you-- Who is this?! I'm armed with a bleeding book and I'm no' afraid t'use it!"

This being a report of a conversation heard one day in the town of Trestlebridge between two friends sitting on the stonework of that hamlet's namesake bridge.

Freddie sat down on the parapet, her legs hanging above the abyss "Would you tell me something, Feaandir... how many times have you been to Fornost before?"

The lore-master took up his pipe weed pouch and opened it. He took his time in answering.

"Twice."

Well.... since our first evening at the Pony, things have gone quite fast for Khan and me. This is the second evening I'm sleeping over at his house. Not sure if that's a wise thing to do, but time will tell I suppose....

I am interested in him, interested to see where this leads for us.

Hall of Fire, Imladris

Indralas places a soft hand upon Sogadan's shoulder, gesturing for his attention. A swift nod follows from Indralas, causing Sogadan to rise from his chair and make for his abode with purpose. Indralas gazes across the Hall, noting the disquieted aura. He unclasps the brooch holding his cape around his neck, and begins to fold it together neatly, picking up a sombre tune. Next to him, on a chair, sits Lasdal.

((This is some makeshift RP between two characters of mine ^^ However, it's only happened once, and I don't think it will happen ever again. Also, I didn't get the chance to actually tell about that woman in chapter 18, so here she is! xD))
