[Hello all, I'm not quite sure where this chapter is going to go, but I'm going on holiday soon so I want to have updated all my stories before then. This is going to be a very hard task because I have no idea where half of them are going; this chapter will probably be made up as I go along. Enjoy]

[Additional A/N Sorry, I didn't manage to update before the holiday I'm really sorry. This chapter worked out quite well in the end I think. Apologies again for the amount of time between updates. I do try to update as regularly as possible but it's difficult without the internet.]

"Now it was obvious to everyone involved that Estel was absolutely smitten with my dear little sister, although Arwen attempted to appear oblivious to the fact, and I don't think Estel realised quite what an idiot he was making either.

He spent the first few days of her visit following her around like a little lost puppy, much to mine and Elrohir's amusement."

The evil twin paused for a second to sneak a look at his adopted brother, as he suspected Estel looked absolutely mortified. He had gone an alarmingly deep colour of red, and looked as though he wished the floor would open up and swallow him. Even more worrying to Elladan's mind however was that even amidst his humiliation a decidedly murderous glint could clearly be seen in the ranger's eye.

Elladan ignored it though and continued ploughing ahead into what was most likely his own doom.

"Now Elrohir and myself, being such kind and helpful..." he paused and waited for Aragorn to stop sniggering before continuing. "...and helpful siblings decided to share our worldly wisdom with him. So, one night about a week into Arwen's visit we gave him some 'advice' about wooing people." This time he had to wait for Elrohir to stop sniggering as the younger twin started laughing in memory of the so called advice.

"Well we decided that to dive straight in and tell him rather 'interesting' ways of getting a girl. We started out with some suggestions that could've worked, if it wasn't for our variations of the usual traditions. We told him about giving presents, but the ideas for presents were slightly different from the usual option of flowers and the like"

At that Aragorn couldn't help but splutter in indignation. "Different! You told me that giving them animals was good, how different do you get?"

"Oh" Arwen said mildly, though her eyes were glinting in amusement. "So that's why you gave me that frog one morning, I did wonder about that."

Up to that point Legolas had been doing an admirable job of not laughing, but that was too much. "You...you...you gave the Evenstar a frog, as a present, I can't believe you fell for that" the hysterical giggles that erupted from the Prince of Mirkwood were eerily girlish, and the other members of the group, barring the mortified ranger, couldn't help joining in.

"Oh the story isn't over yet" Elladan said, when the mirth died down enough for him to be heard over the din. "Before he realised that we were playing a little joke on him we told him the final part, and he succeeded in embarrassing himself in front of most of Imladris when he put our suggestion into action. You see, we told him that a sure fire way to impress a girl was to do something really brave and daring, we told him it had worked every time we had wanted to impress someone."

Tinkling peals of laughter erupted from the Lady Undomiel at that "Oh yes, I remember that, well it certainly impressed me, though maybe not quite how you wanted it to Estel" she said, smiling at her betrothed.

"Well anyway Estel decided that the best way to impress our lady here" he gestured to Arwen "was to do something that, although easy for an elf, was nearly impossible for a human, even one with such excellent tutors as myself and Elrohir." Once more the elder twin had to wait for the sniggers of Estel, and Legolas too this time, to die down. "He decided to try and walk around that ring of trees in the woods not far from here, walking on the topmost, and therefore thinnest, branches all the way round.

So, one sunny morning, he told Arwen that he had something to show her in the woods, and she went with him quite happily. Of course the two lovebirds were to preoccupied with themselves to notice the fact that Elrohir and myself were following behind, not about to miss Estel's latest spectacle.

The reached the trees and Arwen watched in bemusement as Estel climbed high up the first one and started making his way round. He looked like a complete imbecile as he attempted to make his way round, and more than once we though he was going to fall out of the tree. Every time this happened though he just about managed to make a wild grab at a branch and stop himself.

Well Arwen was yelling at him to come down, and after seeing all his near falls we decided that maybe it had gone a bit far and we came out of hiding to help our sister in her attempt to persuade Estel to come down. Funnily enough, as soon as she saw us Arwen knew that we were responsible for Estel's latest bout of idiocy and so rounded on us and started yelling at us instead, leaving a completely bemused Estel clinging onto a rather frail branch for dear life and staring down at us.

Finally the branch seemed to get tired of supporting our dear brother's not insubstantial weight and snapped in two. With a yell the three of us leaped forward to catch the human, but before we could reach him ada, and most of his councillors and advisors walked out underneath Estel's tree.

Before we could shout a warning Aragorn fell into their midst with a loud thud accompanied by the yells of ada, our brother and most of the advisors. I say most because Glorfindel was lagging behind somewhat and he came to the clearing in time to see Estel's unique appearance and was therefore leaning against a tree laughing hysterically."

Glorfindel's hysterical laughter was apparently being copied by the listening elves, though not by the listening ranger, as all four of them were laughing manically, they stopped however when they realised that Elladan was still talking, quickly falling silent as they didn't want to miss the end of the rather amusing tale.

"Well by the time all the confusion was over it turned out that Estel had broken his ankle, and his landing on the elves meant that Erestor had a strained wrist, Galdor had a rather large bump on his, Lindir's ribs had been cracked, and ada looked like he was going to explode with anger. All in all, Elrohir and I thought that our lessons in love went very well."

"Yes" Aragorn growled, "I learnt that listening to you is extremely dangerous to my health and will most likely end in my receiving of a day long lecture from ada.

His complaints were drowned out by the laughter of the rest of the group and so Aragorn sighed and waited for the laughter to die down. When it finally did he looked up and smiled, in a scarily reminiscent way of a Nazgul, to his twin brothers.

"Hmm" he began "I think I would like to tell the next story, in fact I think I will enjoy it immensely"

The way he was staring at the elven twins left no doubts in the minds of the listeners as to whom the ranger's targets were and so they sat back and waited expectantly for the story to begin.

[Et voila, finite. I'm quite pleased by how that turned out, considering it was off the top of my head. Anywho remember that suggestions are always welcome; in fact they would be greatly appreciated. Thanks to all my reviewers, they mean a lot to me and eventually I may get round to saving them onto disc or something so I can actually answer them. I don't have the internet you see so I can't check for reviews when I get home and type, which means I can never remember who reviewed. Oh and I worked out that we still have about twenty mini stories to tell so that's at least 15 more chapters I would say.]
