(Freya' P.O.V)
On the tables were different sorts of green foods, all various shapes and sizes. I even picked up a giant leaf thing which I didn't trust enough to eat. I was sat on the end of one of the tables, next to Kili and Dwalin. Dwalin searched through the food "Where's the meat?" he asked.
I shrugged "Maybe the Elves are vegetarian or something."
Dwalin looked at me "Vegetarian?"
"Means they don't eat meat" I replied absentmindedly as I picked out some food.
"I've never heard of such a ridiculous thing, everyone likes meat!" He stated
I shook my head "Not everyone. I remember when Lexi said she was going to stop eating meat, she lasted for about a month. Mainly because I cooked some bacon right in front of her. I had never seen her eat food as fast as she did then"
I glanced behind me to see a few Elves playing music. Not really my type of music, but okie-dokie.
I tried to stab one of the grapes that were on my plate with my fork, but instead it shot off the plate and across the room, hitting an unsuspecting Elf at the back of their head. My eyes widened comically and I quickly turned back towards my food, pretending nothing had happened.
"Why is that Elf over there glaring at us?" I heard Bofur ask and I accidentally choked on my food. The others around me shifted awkwardly, not knowing what to do with me. When I had recovered from my near death experience I muttered "Thanks for the help, guys"
We started a conversation and chatted for a while. I looked at Kili, who was looking at something behind me. Then he winked at whatever it was. I turned to see what he was winking at, and I saw a female Elf playing the harp. Without thinking about it I sent her a glare and turned back around.
Dwalin had seen Kili wink at her too, and was now staring at Kili, unimpressed. Kili's smile instantly faded and I simply raised an eyebrow at him.
"Can't say I fancy Elf maidens," He said "too thin"
I scoffed and Dwalin slightly raised his eyebrow. Kili wasn't going to be fooling us anytime soon.
"They're all high cheek-bones and creamy skin," he turned to Bofur next to him who nodded in agreement "not enough facial hair for me"
I wasn't sure why but that last bit about facial hair got to me. I absentmindedly reached up towards my hairless face. I only realized what I was doing when Bofur sent a look of sympathy towards me. I quickly pulled my hand away from my face.
Kili nodded to a passing Elf "That one's not bad"
I looked up at the Elf, and tried to contain my laughter. Dwalin leaned forwards and said "That's not an Elf maiden"
Kili whipped his head towards Dwalin so quickly I was surprised he didn't get whiplash. I was just about to calm down when Dwalin winked at Kili, which sent me into a fit of laughter. Soon everybody on both tables were laughing at Kili, who had gone red in the face and said "Very funny" but he didn't look very amused.
I watched with a smile as Oin stuffed some sort of cloth into his trumpet and then put the trumpet into his ear.
"Change the tune why don't you? I feel like I'm in a funeral" I heard Nori say.
"Did somebody die?" one of the Dwarves complained
"All right lads, there's only one thing for it" Bofur said as he got up and stood on a small circular table in between the tables.
Then he started to sing.
"There's an inn there's an inn a merry old inn,
An inn beneath an old gray hill,
And there they brew a beer so brown,
the man on the moon himself came down one night to get his fill,
oh, the ostler has a tipsy cat,
that plays a five-stringed fiddle,
and up and down he saws his bow,
now speaking high,
now purring low,
now sawing in the middle,
So the cat on the fiddle played hey-diddle-diddle,
a jig that would wake the dead,
He squeaked and sawed and quickened the tune,
While the landlord shook the Man in the Moon,
"It's after three" he said-
Bofur was cut off by a bunch of food flying at him. The Dwarves broke out into a food fight. They just never learn, do they?
I watched in amusement as Kili launched an egg towards his brother, where Fili was having what seemed to be a private conversation with Lexi. Unfortunately for Kili, Fili had unknowingly moved at the last second, and the egg sailed straight into Lexi. She snapped her head towards us and I instantly pointed towards Kili. "You're so dead. She's going to kill you." I told him.
I held back a laugh as Lexi came over to us with a sweet smile on her face. It was at that point Kili realized that he was in trouble, so he got up and ran out of the room. Lexi merely picked up the nearest jug of wine and chased after him.
The next thing I knew was that a tomato had hit me in the face. I gaped and turned to see Fili who had come over to me and was now laughing at me. I glared at him and he stopped laughing. I picked up the closest thing to me, which turned out to be a jacket potato, and smashed it right into his face. Now it was his turn to gape at me.
I laughed at how ridiculous he looked. He narrowed his eyes at me and he threw more food at me. We continued throwing food at each other until we were too busy laughing to continue.
I'll try and upload within the next few days,
Have a nice day!
