Lindir had been attached to the hip of one of Bards assistants Verissa since morning. He was supposed to be attending Lord Elrond but was told to ‘take a break’
Ugh!
Well she was nice at least, and dare he say it perhaps she was even a friend.
Elrond: There you are Lindir! How has your day been?
Lindir: My day has been well, Verissa here was quite kind in showing me around.
Elrond: oh was she now
Elrond didn’t want antagonize the situation but Verissa hardly seemed kind and helpful sort; a constant scowl on her face, short replies and staring at air. Then again Erestor did similar things...
Bard huffed: And how was your day Verissa?
She looked up from inspecting her nails: it was not terrible
Elrond bristled.
Bard laughed: Well good to see you making friends! And with elves no less!
Verissa hummed huffy: ...friends...
Glorfindale stepped in before Elrond could interject: Well then I hope tomorrow goes better for you I’m sure we can find something for Lindir to do without taking your time
Verissa blinked slowly:Why would you need to do that?
Glorfindale: uuuhhhh welll
Erestor: We simply don’t want to disturb you with someone you barely appear to tolerate
Verissa stared at the elves with the eyes of a long dead fish:
“I have only known Lindir for a day but if anything ever happened to them I would kill everyone in this room and then myself”
The room went quite, the room was quite until the humans began to laugh!
The non-Greenwood elves stood shocked. Glorfindale: Did she just threaten murder and the humans are ... happy?
Thranduil grind over to Elrond: No worries Lindir, this just means she likes you.
