*Sits in the cafe, sips on a latte and muses on how WELL things are going lately.*

I'm getting on better with Miriel lately, I even made her laugh. HA. That's a foot in the door. Even Gimilkhad doesn't seem to want to eviscerate me lately...okay, that's probably because he's found somone he can hate even more than me, but still, it's not to be

*comes in to get a cappuccino*

*notices you sitting there*

Someone's cheerful today.

[andunie_heir]

Why yes, I am blissfully ignorant feeling rather chipper today. How are you?

[star_brow]

Oh? Good news on the wooing front?

*takes a seat at your table*

I've been better, to tell you the truth.

[andunie_heir]

I rendered some assitance to Miriel with regard to a new arrival...it went pretty well. Remind me to introduce you to said rehousing one day, you'd get on famously. Heh. Heheheh.

*frowns in concern!* What's wrong?

[star_brow]

*smiles weakly* Do I want to know all the sordid details?

Honestly, I think I may have had enough of rehousings to hold me over for a while. Namely, my daughter. Born to Aldarion and his new bint. ;_;

[andunie_heir]

*face falls* Eru, that's harsh. That's beyond harsh. You know, never mind, you're probably not seeing the funny side of rehousing at the moment.

*fidgets, not knowing quite what to say.* You're sure it's her?

[star_brow]

*nods* I've suspected it for weeks now, but only the other day she came looking for me in the middle of the night. Said she dreamed about me. And when I talked to her I realized she was dreaming about Númenor. :(

[andunie_heir]

Do her, uh, biological parents know?

[star_brow]

Possibly. My former son-in-law was there as well. Eru knows what he's told them. >:|

[andunie_heir]

Hallcar? I'm surprised he'd care to be honest with you. His marriage to your daughter wasn't exactly a bed of roses by all accounts.

[star_brow]

Yes, well, you can add that to the list of items he blames ME for. I'm sure he'll be only too happy to exact revenge on me for raising my daughter to be...shall we say...independent.

[andunie_heir]

What's the worst he can do? She obviously remembers you and wants to see you. It would be cruel to deny her that.

[star_brow]

*shoots you a grateful look*

I hope other people can see it that way. I must admit, I haven't exactly been...ah...polite to Aldarion and Nienor since I arrived here.

Butanyway-good news about making progress with Míriel! I'm happy for you!

[andunie_heir]

Well I'm sure Ancalime won't be backwards in coming forwards with what's on her mind. Not if she's anything like her mother anyway. ;)

Hm? Wha? Oh! Miriel. Yeah. It's good.

[star_brow]

No, I suppose she probably won't.

*sips her drink in companionable silence*

[andunie_heir]

*Sits in silence with a pensive look on his face before nodding to himself.*

Yes. You're very direct and I admire that. I could have done with some of that in my first life.
