(He chooses to keep this as audio as the topics might be a little sensitive. Yes, Celebrimbor thinks of things like that.)

Do you need help? I know you haven't asked me, but I'm offering.

(As kind as he might seem - as gentle - he is an Elf who knows battle well.)

I think I need to change my routine. I find it far too easy to fall into a rut. (And a change will stop him from worrying too much about his uncle.) How far has anyone explored? Is there any point to it?

..... I broke that promise, you know. You only asked one thing of me, and I broke it wittingly. I knew it would hurt him, and I chose to do it anyway. You can't tell me that you aren't the slightest bit furious.

[He still isn't even sure how Curufin came to forgive him, or Maglor. Or why no one wants to yell at him. Things that will never stop being weird. And it proves very difficult for Yukari not to resist against it.]

I don't understand why you all are like this. None of it makes sense.

For what reason did you break it? That matters a great deal. As my father has not abandoned you, I would say the reason is sufficient explanation and he does not take offense.

(Oh Yukari, you do not fully know the actions of the Fëanorians.)

My family has no place to judge.

For the very reason that I told him when he left me: to protect him. Do not think it is so clear-cut. I only apologized for hurting him the way I did, but I do not regret my choices otherwise.

I swore myself to a new King, and told him I would no longer kill the innocent, in order to prevent myself from doing so again. But that does not mean I would not do it again if I were left to my own devices. And I do not think he would have taken me back if I had not met at least some substandard of those circumstances.

Your family has plenty of room to judge. I'm certainly not offended if any of you would think lesser of me.
