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.

[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.

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]

[ 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.

[bythewaves]

No one will hurt you again.

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

Not again. I won't lose you again.

[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.

[handofsilver]

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

[bythewaves]

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

Re: (Video)

[bythewaves]

Won't go.

[ Maglor hums back ]

I'll kill them if they try.

[so_dark_a_road]

And so we will.

[bythewaves]

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

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?

[so_dark_a_road]

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

[bythewaves]

[ Maglor blinks at him and pulls him close ]

Whatever you want?

[bythewaves]

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

Where are you?

[utulien_aure]

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

[bythewaves]

To war, again?

[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?

(Action)

[handofsilver]

(His arm slips around Maglor's waist and he shakes his head slightly.)

I would never let someone hunt you; I would never let them touch you.

[bythewaves]

Stay safe. [ Maglor's eyes narrow slightly - he only vaguely remembers Yukari from the Pleasantville event, and he doesn't trust his brother with someone who is essentially a stranger ]

Come home after. [ he pleads softly ] I will be waiting

Re: (Action)

[bythewaves]

[ Automatically, Maglor runs soothing fingers through his hair ]

I know. Nor I you. I won't let it happen again.

(Action)

[handofsilver]

I'm not on the list. (He reminds, gazing at Maglor solemnly.) Do not put yourself in danger for me or anyone.
