Searching updates.

Today I got some very sad news...

Theo: I think your baby is kinda dead

Fingon: It can't be! *denial* the Goblins wouldn't DO that

Theo: I think goblins eat babies.

Fingon: *gasp* No! It cannot be! They must want to ransom baby instead.

Theo: has there been any ransom demands?

Fingon: Well no. Just the note telling us that baby was taken *wibbles*

Fingon: and we've been looking

Theo: ...*pats him on the shoulder* Sometimes goblins just steal babies and eats them. I'm sure it happens all the time.

Fingon: But but...who would do that? Well I mean which goblins? *pause* there is no proof right? There may still be hope.

Theo: ...well, no, we haven't found any remains yet...

Fingon: well then. That's still a good sign!

Theo: I guess. Unless they eat bones

Fingon: ....No. No I'm going to think positively about this. I mean it's a good theory but...I can't accept it yet.

Theo: ...well, would you like to join in the searches?

Fingon: Very much. *nods firmly* what's been organized? *has mostly been at IHOF trying to fund them*

Theo: Well, right now we've mostly been focusing on going through the sewers. You can... help guard an exit?

Fingon: I definitely can. It's been a while, but some stuff you remember.

Theo: Come after your shift to the guardhouse. We'll get you to where you need to be

Fingon: I'll do that. Thank you.

Theo: But... you really should prepare for the worst.

Fingon: *bites lip* I'll prepare for it but...I can't believe it. Not yet.

Theo: Alright. Er, I hope you and your wife are doing alright during this.

Fingon: We're...well doing the best we can.

Theo: *nod* Well, we're trying to keep you informed

Fingon: I know you are. We really appreciate that.

Theo: *quick nod* I should get back to searching

Fingon: I'll come by as soon as I can. *firm nod* Thank you.

Theo: *quick bow and leaves*

I know what he said and all and that it MIGHT be true, but...I can't actually believe it. Not yet. I feel that Baby is still okay while missing. I feel it in the earth, I feel it in the water... I have to keep believing this is all going to be okay and soon Baby will be home with us picking the bits of scattered pancake batter from my hair and eating the samples I bring home with my discount.

There's nothing else that could happen is there? The Goblins would have told us if they planned to kill Baby so...all we have to do is keep on looking. I'm glad I get to join the search. I'm going to feel better knowing I'm helping and not just serving up chocolate chip pancakes (on special this week if anyone cares!) to help pay for our great search. It's something good anyway, isn't it?
