*just happens to be passing through the other end of that very same clearing at that moment. late at night. singing along with her iPod*

*coincidence?*

*wanders along, not expecting anyone to be out and therefore not noticing him*

*stands stock still and stares*

*ooh, love that alliteration*

Tinúviel? TINÚVIEL? TINÚVIEL?!

	From: luthiekins	Date: 01/17/2007 17:03:37

*iPod, duh*

*totally doesn't hear a thing*

*starts to wander out of the clearing away from him*

	From: berencamlost	Date: 01/17/2007 17:09:02

*feels gripped by a sudden panic, in case he's imagining this*

*sprints after her and lightly grabs her hand* Tinúviel?

	From: luthiekins	Date: 01/17/2007 17:14:42

*jumps about three feet in the air when he touches her hand*

*pulls out her earbuds and spins around to look at him*

Eru, Manwë, and Varda, don't sneak up on people like that! Make a noise!!

	From: berencamlost	Date: 01/17/2007 17:17:08

*tilts his head to the side and just smiles at you*

Tinúviel. I can't believe it. You're ... you're here.

	From: luthiekins	Date: 01/17/2007 17:18:45

*stares at him, confused* *wonders if they've met before*

I'm sorry, I think you have me confused with someone else. My name is Lúthien.

*smiles sympathetically*

	From: berencamlost	Date: 01/17/2007 17:22:45

Of course, your name is Lúthien. Enchantress. My tinúviel.

*pauses as he realises that she doesn't look convinced* Don't you recognise me?

	From: luthiekins	Date: 01/17/2007 17:24:49

*feels really silly*

I'm sorry, have we met before? Were you maybe at the opening of the MHC? I signed some autographs then, but I met quite a few people. What did you say your name was?

	From: berencamlost	Date: 01/17/2007 17:26:58

*feels really baffled*

Of course we've met. I -- You really have no idea. I suppose that explains why you haven't struck me dumb this time round.

	From: luthiekins	Date: 01/17/2007 17:28:51

I just don't remember. I'm really sorry. If you want to give me your name and address I can send you an autographed picture. The autographed pictures are really popular.

*gives him a little smile* *wonders why he looks like someone just ran over his puppy with a cement truck*

	From: berencamlost	Date: 01/17/2007 17:32:29

*looks at her for the longest moment*

Camlost. I'm Camlost.

	From: luthiekins	Date: 01/17/2007 17:34:18

Oh, well, no, we've definitely not met. You must be confused.

*looks at him for a moment*

Are you alright? You don't look like you feel well.

	From: berencamlost	Date: 01/17/2007 17:38:46

I am confused. And a little, ah, travel-sick, perhaps. Miles to go before I sleep or something.

*steps away from her* My apologies for disturbing you, Tinúv- Lady Lúthien.

	From: luthiekins	Date: 01/17/2007 17:41:26

Well, wait!

*grabs his hand* *has no idea why she did that*

If you're tired you should come to Delving. You can rest there for the night and then tomorrow maybe you'll be... not so confused. *big smile* I'll make sure you're looked after.

*vaguely wonders why she's offering to take care of a complete stranger*
*figures it must be the philanthropist in her*

	From: berencamlost	Date: 01/17/2007 17:44:56

*with some regret* I do not do well in enclosed spaces, my lady.

*moves towards her and ghosts a soft kiss over her lips* But I have no doubt we'll meet again.

*turns and strides away through the clearing*

	From: luthiekins	Date: 01/17/2007 17:49:23

*stands there for a moment after he's gone touching her lips*

*isn't sure exactly how to feel*





...

How presumptuous!

*decides it's probably time to head back home herself*
