Part 2! starsandsea January 10 2015, 19:26:33 UTC

"Well, well, what have we here?" said the inhabitant of the tent, turning toward him. She was tall--nearly as tall as Arwen--and slender to the point of boniness, with a face like beaten bronze, seamed and wrinkled with age. Her straight white hair fell down her back, unadorned, but her tunic and pantaloons were covered with thick sky-blue embroidery. At her feet another five or six cats gamboled and played, batting at the hem of her tunic and each other.

Ooooh, ooooh! And now I'm really wondering about her...

Bilbo couldn't help huffing a bit. "I don't see why everyone feels the need to compare me to a rabbit," he said. Then he looked beyond her to a shape lying at the far side of the tent and felt his knees turn to water. "Oh," he stammered.

Bilbo! *pets him*

"A mountain lion," Thorin said behind him, his voice impressed. The huge, tawny beast raised its heavy head to blink at all of them, then yawned, unrolling a pink tongue and then tucking it back in. The chitahr padded into the tent and curled up next to the lion; an assortment of smaller cats joined them to create a furry heap.

Eeeee! *hearts all the cats*

"You! Pompous One!" She pointed at Denethor, folding tapestries with a sour look on his face. "Fold in thirds, not fourths!"

Denethor nudged an inquisitive cat away with his foot, sneezed again, and started refolding the tapestry with a martyred air.

I know I shouldn't laugh, but-! *giggles so much*

"Oh, my cats and I come and go," Bachai said vaguely, waving her paper tube. "Wherever things look most interesting." She smiled as Estel waded in to help the flustered dwarves. "And things suddenly look very interesting around here."

Ooooh!

*dances* This was such a wonderful chapter, BIG CATS, YAY! :D :D :D I'm really looking forward to seeing the Fellowship traveling with the wains, too...

Yesssss, well. *grin* We won't be in suspense too much longer!

Eeeee! *hearts all the cats*

They're SO FUN to write! Just climbing over all of the party... And poor Denethor! He's doing his best, he really is...

I love their time traveling together! Dis and Arwen are going to learn to drive a chariot together! <3
