This is a response to Erestor's challenge:

Glorfindel, Elladan and Elrohir are now on the main character list! So here's a writing challenge for you to celebrate. Write a humorous little story (without slash) in which Glorfindel and the twins are the main characters. Include a tree house, a reference to a drunk dwarf, and Erestor saying, "This is not funny" in your story. No other rules. This is a random challenge.

*~*~*

            Glorfindel was walking through the gardens of Rivendell when he heard hushed whispers. He looked up and saw the twins climbing a tree.

            "Elladan? Elrohir? What are you doing?" The two glanced at each other.

            "We're just going to our old tree house," said Elladan.

            "After all, the last time we were up there was when Estel was six," said Elrohir.

            "You forgot the time when there was that drunk dwarf," said Glorfindel lightly. "You called him a despicable miser and then went up here to escape his wrath."

            "Oh, yeah." The twins went back to climbing the tree.

            "So who are you attacking this time?"

            "Glorfindel!" Elrohir groaned. "How did you know?!"

            "I watched you grow up. Who is it?"

            "Erestor," said Elladan. "He said we were immature and as bad as human three-year-olds!"

            "Really? He said the same thing about me just this morning."

            "Care to join us for revenge?" asked Elrohir.

            "Certainly." Glorfindel followed them up the tree.

*~*~*

            "Ok," whispered Elladan to Elrohir and Glorfindel, "When Erestor walks underneath, we drop the water balloons."

            "And be ready to run," Elrohir whispered back.

            "Here he comes now!" Glorfindel hissed.

*~*~*

            Erestor was wandering around happily. He had had a wonderful Elladan-Elrohir-and Glorfindel-free morning. Perhaps they had actually listened to him for once!

            He really should have been more wary.

*~*~*

            "Ready," Glorfindel whispered. "Aim, Fire!"

            He and the twins threw their water balloons.

            "Ahhhhhhh!!!!!!!" Erestor yelled. He did not like being drenched with icy water.

            Glorfindel and the twins started laughing uncontrollably. Erestor spotted them.

            "This is not funny!" he snapped. Glorfindel fell out of the tree.

            "You look like a drowned rat!" he gasped. Erestor glared.

            "Really."

            "Yes, really!" Glorfindel giggled.

            "I wonder what you'll look like after I push you in a mud puddle."

            "It was their idea!"

            "But they didn't call me a drowned rat," said Erestor, and pounced.

I hope you enjoyed it!
