This one's for Aromene :)


Thranduil (tossing aside parchment): Elrond is assembling a council.

Legolas: How long will you be away, Father?

Thranduil: Why should I leave my borders just because Mr. "I'm not a King" decides to start issuing proclamations?!

Legolas: (reads parchment) It sounds important.

Thranduil: They think everything is important down there. We have real problems to attend to… In fact, maybe I'll send you. Then YOU can inform everyone how, once again, you've managed to lose your prisoner.

Legolas (scowls): I told you, we were attacked.

Thranduil: If you had locked him up like I told you to in the first place… ohhhh, that's right, you've lost prisoners that way too. Remind me never to trust you with safeguarding anything again. Yes, have a wonderful time with your half-mortal friends.

Legolas (storms out to pack): Always do. Oh well, at least there won't be any dwarves at the council, or any shiny objects to drive people insane. Like last time.
