For Relatives (especially angry ones!)

[valiantfinwe]

Fingon rather suspects an influx of angry visitors, though he doesn't really know why. It's not like he did anything, or anything. And he knows he's right, too. This is just going to make it a little harder to prove it.

At any rate, he's now sitting in his room, flipping idly through a book and his expression set on his default, lately - vaguely

This is touchy. Niko isn't a relative, but as our fellow typist agreed... here he is, but no, not knocking at the door - because, well, you know, it's not really his style, not when he doesn't even know where to go.

But if Fingon needs to have some fresh air and a calm, reasonable, objective conversation, he'll be on the front lawn, training.

[valiantfinwe]

Well, heavens! Calm and reasonable? Fingon is the epitome of both, what are you saying?

But he does come striding out, eventually, wearing his sword again. After having tried Tyelko's door - again - and finding it locked - again.

This is really not helping.

[ninja_niko]

He might notice that the Edain man he knows is out executing a complex and graceful kata.

He's not really interrupting himself - but he knows he is not alone.

[valiantfinwe]

Well, he's not stopping to watch. Heading for the cliffs, to kick around some more wreckage and try to sort out his thoughts.

[ninja_niko]

That's too bad. The not saying thank you, the other day? It's enough for Niko to not want to interrupt himself to go after him.

He might be there when Fingon returns, though, probably relaxing with a book.

[valiantfinwe]

He does come back, eventually. But might only be hesitating slightly before starting back inside to - yes - try the door again.

"Good evening to you too." Niko says it from his book.

[valiantfinwe]

He stops.

"Good evening." Tersely. But not angry at him, at least! Just...everyone else.

[ninja_niko]

One eyebrow. "You look like someone stole your dessert."

[valiantfinwe]

"Not exactly." A frown, and he decides that news is important. "Tyelkormo is back."

[ninja_niko]

"Ah, I see. How was his vacation spot?"

[valiantfinwe]

A glare. "I have had enough flippancy for today, thank you." Acidly.

[ninja_niko]

"Sheesh, your Majesty, no need to get on your high horses." He stands, though, and puts the book away.

"What's eating at you?"

[valiantfinwe]

"--Artanis has locked me out and refuses to allow me to speak to him." Irritably. And everyone seems mad at me.

[ninja_niko]

"The disadvantage of having a mind-reader around. My girlfriend was like that."

Note how unsurprised he is.

[valiantfinwe]

Frowning. "You don't seem surprised."

A pause. "And I need to talk to him."
