Axe 02 - Video- Open to Both

[gloinul]

[He really doesn't like using this thing for anything more than responding to others but. Well.

Gimli starts the feed up and he has three of his five axes out in front of him, sharpening a fourth.]

Thought I might as well let the world at large know that if you are at all interesting in helping to rebuild the gates of the Cothromach, I'm the Dwarf you should speak to. I'm fairly certain anyone interested is already here, but. [And he shrugs] I hope you have people to vouch for you if you're interested. I do not tolerate slackers or liars on my jobs, nor do I tolerate saboteurs.

[Well, that explains the show of axes.

And he is done with this very painful task. The feed just cuts out]

[ So someone was just idly flipping through the lockets and... ]

Master Gimli forgive me but... did you just say Artanis gave you three strands of her hair?!? [ Too stunned to remember Sindarin yep ]

[video]

[gloinul]

D'you mean the Lady Galadriel? Yes she did. I have sketches of a setting I wish to put them in.

I... yes, that is her name now. I... Master Gimli... that is... that is the highest honor she could have accorded anyone! My cousin is extremely proud of her hair - not even to my father would she grant one strand, and he asked her thrice!

[So red]

Y-yes, Lady Celebrían has said as much. I had no idea. I simply admired her.

[ a soft amazed laugh ]

Fortunate beyond words you are indeed, Gimli Lockbearer! So highly she must regard you.

[ And Maglor bows to him, formally, hand-over-heart ]

To such a one as is so high in my cousins' graces, no aid may I refuse you if you ask.

[video]

[gloinul]

No, no no, none of that. I had no idea it was such an honor and simply wanted a reminder of the fairest thing I have yet seen.

[ Maglor shakes his head slightly ]

No, Master Gimli. Such an honor accorded by one of the greatest of us, and further that you are so humble about it? No - you are every bit deserving of the highest honor from any of us.

[video]

[gloinul]

Bah, I am worthy of no such thing! I was pressed into asking--I did not want to ask for so silly a thing!

[video]

[bythewaves]

But you did ask, and you asked with good intent, and she honored it - tis only fair we do the same, Master Gimli!

[ a teasing tip of his head ]

And you lie, sir. Tis not silly, or you would not be reacting so.

[video]

[gloinul]

It most certainly was a foolish thing, else I would not have hesitated to ask.

[video]

[bythewaves]

You hesitated because you felt it rude, and for that consideration she rewarded you. [ Maglor corrects cheerfully - look, its difficult to lie to the guy who lies to all and sundry including himself ]

Accept your honors, Master dwarf! Tis not every day one hears of such a thing!

[video]

[gloinul]

It is hardly so special. I am no better than the rest of you, and that is the end of it.

[video]

[bythewaves]

Maybe so, and maybe not - but my cousin certainly values you highly! And I have learnt to trust to her wisdom and counsel, and so I must follow her lead in this.
