Video. I apologise for the crazy

[bythewaves]

"A friend told me to be wary of my life." Maglor's voice is almost merry. But there's a ring to it, an edge that draws attention.

"Slain ye shall be they warned us and we were, oh we were. O my brothers, my cousins, my bright kin! Three Ages of the world and all those I loved died around me and yet I am still here."

Maglor throws out his hands and laughs, his eyes burning silver bright and fey and his voice with a shine to it like the polished edge of a blade.

"Three Ages we stood against our Enemy and all he could throw at us, and paid in blood for every inch we held against him. But we held! Dragonfire and Balrogs and betrayal of kin and ally, but he is defeated and I remain. And now you would name me enemy? Come then and let us see if you can do what the Enemy of the World could not! But."

And his voice drops to a low croon, darkly caressing, promise in every word.

"Anyone who touches my family dies."

[ The sound of Curufin applauding and laughing. ] That's the Maglor I know and love.

[bythewaves]

[ Normally, Maglor is the reasonable one of the seven. Normally. Normally, his family has not been threatened after he just got them back. ]

I won't let anyone hurt you.

[so_dark_a_road]

[ Curufin knows this, but he remembers well who Maglor is when he goes to war. He is as crazy as any of his brothers, or as any other Finwean, for that matter. ]

I know you won't.

Nor will I let anyone hurt you, my dear brother.

[bythewaves]

We'll make them regret it. Making enemies of us.

[so_dark_a_road]

And so we will.

[bythewaves]

I can't lose you again. I won't.

[so_dark_a_road]

Nor can I lose you. And we won't.

[bythewaves]

Good. [ Maglor hums, the bloodthist in his eyes settling ]

Where are you?

[so_dark_a_road]

Crossing the city center. About to visit my dear friend Yukari and have a conversation with him that can't wait. [ Lover, that is. Curufin's face indicates it won't be a pleasant conversation, indeed, it may be a very hostile one. ]

Where are you?

[utulien_aure]

[...And Fingon should probably be trying to be the responsible one and calm this down, but hey it's actually kind of endearing.]

We love you too, Kano.

[bythewaves]

No one will hurt you again.

[utulien_aure]

No one will hurt any of us. We will all make sure of that.

[bythewaves]

To war, again?

[utulien_aure]

It seems so.

[There's a bright sparkle to his eye and a laugh in his voice. The Null want a war? Very well, let them try it.]

They will find we do not bow to threats so easily.

[bythewaves]

[ Fingon the Valiant, and Maglor smiles in answer to his cousin's light - his reign might not have been long, but it had been eventful, and Maglor gladly followed him ]

Indeed not! No armies to lead here, which makes it easier in one way, harder in another. Will you call for a council, Aranya?

...i really should have called the log "the council of fingon"

[utulien_aure]

["Eventful." Well, that's one thing to call it.

At first Fingon shoots him an unimpressed look, but the title does its work. In the next moment it is the High King staring back at Maglor, the face Fingon uses when the lives of his own are in his hands.]

I think it's time. Too many of us are threatened directly not to come together, and the rest are not out of danger. We have our friends to think of as well.

Lol but I like the current one!

[bythewaves]

[ And Maglor straightens in return, one of Fingon's Commanders, now, ready and and willing ]

True enough. I will call the others, then. Should we ask Sansa?

Uncle... (He will stand with him; that is a given. But he worries.) We are all grown. I do not think we need death threats to protect us.

[bythewaves]

I won't let anyone hurt you. [ Maglor croons, promise in every word ]

Not again. I won't lose you again.

(Video)

[handofsilver]

I won't let anyone hurt you, either. (He smiles, unsure.) You are not going anywhere and neither am I.

Re: (Video)

[bythewaves]

Won't go.

[ Maglor hums back ]

I'll kill them if they try.

[handofsilver]

Where are you, Uncle? Are you in the house? (You're about to have company.)

Re: (Video)

[bythewaves]

Home. [ he nods ]

Why?

(Action)

[handofsilver]

(He makes no response; instead he seeks out Maglor and leans against his uncle's side.)

What am I to do with you?

(Action)

[bythewaves]

[ Maglor blinks at him and pulls him close ]

Whatever you want?
