Breaking the Habit

Eruanna: 5

Raunion: 12

Eldarion: 15

"It is a repulsive habit, and he will not do it while he is under my roof."

Eleniel smiled at her father's disgusted comment as she sat in the Hall of Fire with her family, her daughter asleep in her arms.

"He is not a child anymore, Ada," she pointed out, and Elrond turned his glare on her.

"I do not care! If Estel wants to smoke his pipe, then he will do it in his own house, not his adar's."

Arwen laughed. "You do know he will not listen to you."

"Then I shall pray for his soul," Elladan spoke up, and he and his twin burst into laughter.

Suddenly, the door to the Hall of Fire opened and Eldarion and Raunion came running in. At a look from Daeron, they guiltily slowed to a fast walk, making their way over to their grandfather.

"Daerada," the boys said at the same time, and Elrond looked at them expectantly.

Raunion turned to his cousin. "You tell him," he whispered.

"No, you tell him!" Eldarion hissed back.

"He's your Ada!"

"Well… he's your uncle!"

"Somebody tell me," Elrond said with a sigh, raising an eyebrow at his two grandsons, and Eldarion gulped.

"Um… well," the teenager said, before sighing in defeat. "Ada's doing it again."

"ESTEL!"


Elvish used:

Ada – Dad/Daddy

Daerada – Grandad
