Reclining in an easy chair...

[celebrimborx]

Tobey is bathing now as I sit her enjoying the summer morning. Ah, life in the Shire!

Narya, would you like a polish? We have some time to ourselves now. *takes special polishing cloth and polish from his pocket*

*glimmer* I thought you would never ask!

[celebrimborx]

*removes Narya from finger; sets her on the arm of the chair* Let me warm some of this on my hand before applying it to you. *opens jar; removes a fingerful of polish; rubs it on his palm to heat it*

I would never rub cold chemicals on my dearest ring. That would not be comfortable at all.

[naryathered]

You are very thoughtful, lirimaer.

I hope Tobey will agree to pose for you.

*picks Narya up and starts to buff her* He may, Narya. He is certainly a mystery to me. Just when I think I know him to some degree, he surprises me.

*holds the ring up to the light from the windo* Dear, dear. You have a rather large thumbprint which is preventing you from shining in your usually brilliant manner. Forgive me for having to scrub just a little. *buffs slightly harder than before*

[naryathered]

There is more to him than he lets on, I think. I wonder why he's so broody?

*sparkle* And just whose thumbprint might that be?

[celebrimborx]

*stops polishing* Who's...Narya! Mine, of course! I have not so much as clasped another hand, never wanting to chance losing you. *chuckles* The very idea.

Regarding Tobey, amin n'rangwa edanea.^ He seems so light-hearted and carefree. But you are correct, there is a brooding side to him. He must have secrets. What could they be?

^I don't understand these humans.

[naryathered]

*sparkle* I appreciate that, lirimaer, believe me.

Hmm. Sometimes he seems too happy and carefree. Well, we know he is not physically deformed. Mentally, on the other hand... Perhaps he will open up to you one day, dearest.

*concentrates on removing all the polish from Narya's prongs*

I hope he opens up soon. Asking directly about a person's secrets is not very tactful.
