*wanders through the streets of Delving, keeping a weathered eye on all the relationships around her*

*sees a couple in the middle of a fight and blows a kiss their way*

*watch as they both suddenly apologize and make-up* *smiles to herself* It was a silly arguement anyhow.

*finally reaches her destination, the one place she's always certain to find a lonely heart or two*

*surveys the surroundings with interest*

Current Mood: working

*sits at the bar, moping after his Blatant and Horrible rejection by Lúthien*

*is on his third pint and is therefore very drunk*

*to the guy sitting next to him, who is slowly inching away* Idi'ts. They're all IDioTs. W'men. Who needs 'em?
From: [info]melante Date: 02/04/2007 22:39:37  

*spots you and sees you need her help* *would have to be blind, deaf, and dumb not to see that, really*

*says an apologetic word to the man sitting next to you and takes you by the arm, leading you to a secluded booth*

Now, sweetie, tell me all about it. Who's hurt you?
From: [info]loremaster Date: 02/04/2007 22:41:14  

*slowly blinks you into focus*

Huh? Wossat? Where'd you come from? *looks down at his half-empty glass* Didja come from there. *looks dangerously close to passing out*
From: [info]melante Date: 02/04/2007 22:42:37  

*sighs* *really hates working the bar scene, honestly*

Hey! *snaps her fingers and sends a wave of detoxifying sobriety over you* Now. Focus here. You were saying women are idiots. Who makes you think that?
From: [info]loremaster Date: 02/04/2007 22:44:19  

*blinks his eyes as suddenly everything becomes clear again* Whoa.

*remembers why he was drunk and suddenly wishes everything wasn't clear again* Oh.

*finally registers your presence* Uh... hello?
From: [info]melante Date: 02/04/2007 22:45:42  

*resists rolling her eyes*

*gently, as you are clearly hurting* You're sad, sweetheart. Someone's made you that way? I heard you say women are idiots. Now I know you don't really think that, but someone's got you all messed up. Tell me what happened.
From: [info]loremaster Date: 02/04/2007 22:47:17  

I heard you say women are idiots.

*shifts uncomfortably in his seat* You're not one of those crazy equal rights feminazis are you? Because I didn't mean it, honest, I don't even remember saying that. *quickly realizes what he just said* I didn't mean anything by crazy feminazi either!! I'm drunk, horribly drunk! Crazy, even, look at me saying crazy things.
From: [info]melante Date: 02/04/2007 22:48:45  

*under her breath* Eru, grant me patience.

*to you* I'm not a feminazi or crazy or anything. I'm not going to hurt you, either. My name is Vendöré and I'm here to help. You're having trouble with a lady friend?
From: [info]loremaster Date: 02/04/2007 22:50:33  

*actually considers telling you everything but is hideously mortified* *plus you're kinda hot* Trouble? Nope, no trouble. I don't know where you got the idea there was trouble because there isn't any! Lady-friend? Who? What do you know about my lady-friends? You don't know anything, that's right. So thanks but no thanks, okay?
From: [info]melante Date: 02/04/2007 22:52:53  

*is about three seconds from giving up on you as a lost cause*

*sighs and looks deep in your eyes*

*after a moment* You are Daeron and... your trouble-causing lady-friend is... Lúthien. Oh dear, you are out of luck. I'm sorry, I can't help you with that. I suggest you move on before you hurt yourself even more.
From: [info]loremaster Date: 02/04/2007 22:55:24  

*stares at you in amazement* How did you... how did you know?

*finally twigs where he's heard your name before* Wait, wait, Vendöré Melantë? The Vendöré Melantë? As in the one person on Öré who actually has the power to make Lúthien love me? But you! You can help me!

*looks as cheerful as he has in hours!!*
From: [info]melante Date: 02/04/2007 22:57:07  

*smiles at you sadly* I'm afraid this is one time I cannot help. Lúthien's fate is tied to anothers. You should have realized this already, of course. *looks at him closely* Ah. You do not wish it to be true.
From: [info]loremaster Date: 02/04/2007 22:58:50  

*gives you a even look* Just because things were a certain way before doesn't mean they have to be now. You can change them. There's no rule that says she has to be with Beren. Look at how badly it ended last time! I can make her life better! We can make her life better! MAKE HER FALL IN LOVE WITH ME.
From: [info]melante Date: 02/04/2007 23:00:39  

*sighs and shakes her head* It is not a matter of rules. She will be with Beren because it is what she desires above all else. Look at her for once with unbiased eyes and you will see that. My powers cannot change her course, nor would I allow them. You want her to love you for your own sake, not hers. I will not be part of that.
From: [info]loremaster Date: 02/04/2007 23:02:40  

*falls down on his knees* Please. Please. Give me a week, a single week. Make her love me for a week and I can show her what true happiness is. I would never harm her or see her upset. I just want one week where she looks at me like she looks at him. That would change everything. Please.
From: [info]melante Date: 02/04/2007 23:07:32  

*stares at you for a long while, considering*

*finally* I'm sorry, but no. It would do little to change the course of things, but it would cause great harm to many, including Lúthien, whom you claim you wish not to hurt. Find yourself another love, Daeron, and you will be happy. This one is lost to you.
From: [info]loremaster Date: 02/04/2007 23:08:19  

*lets his head droop* Is there nothing I can say to change your mind?
From: [info]melante Date: 02/04/2007 23:22:10  

I'm afraid not, no. *stands up* Good luck, Daeron. *wanders off in search of what she hopes will be a more successful endeavour*
From: [info]loremaster Date: 02/04/2007 23:23:00  

*waits until you're far enough away to not possibly hear him* Yeah. Thanks for nothing.
From: [info]melante Date: 02/04/2007 23:25:04  

*heard that* *smiles whimsically* *spots an equally lonely and dour-looking girl at the bar and gives her a mental nudge in your direction* *adds a sprinkle of attraction and figures the rest is up to you*
From: [info]ivrinsun Date: 02/04/2007 23:27:24  

*makes her way around the bar, giving out her card to some of the cleaner, wealthier-looking patrons*

*notices you looking considerably more attractive than the other 'ladies' there*

She'd better not be horning in on my territory.
From: [info]melante Date: 02/04/2007 23:33:34  

*spots you and immediately picks up on the vibe*

*wanders over*

*as casually as a valie who is having her domain trampled over and made a mockery of* You think love can be paid for with money?
From: [info]ivrinsun Date: 02/04/2007 23:37:22  

*eyes you curiously* Love? *laughs* Oh Eru, no. Sex? Sure.

*hesitantly* Are you one of those religious nuts who's going to lecture me on the evil of my ways? Because you needn't bother.
From: [info]melante Date: 02/04/2007 23:58:24  

Religious? *laughs* You might call it that, I suppose. Though I'm not here to lecture you. Simply curiosity, no more. I tend to believe that ...sex, as you call it, is one of the purest expressions of love. You think otherwise?
From: [info]ivrinsun Date: 02/05/2007 00:03:33  

*mildly* I don't disagree with you. Maybe it's just that, in my head, I'm able to separate the sex with people I don't love from the sex with the person...the people I do. That sex would be a hell of a lot different. If I ever, ever got any of that sort.
From: [info]melante Date: 02/05/2007 00:06:22  

*has a hard time comprehending how that could ever possibly work*

the person...the people I do

*smiles a little* There is someone special in your life? Or someone special you would like in your life?
From: [info]ivrinsun Date: 02/05/2007 00:11:27  

*suddenly uncomfortable* There's no such person in my life at the moment. Not exactly. Well, intermittently. *anxiously* That is, I haven't seen him in a few days. But it isn't like...that between us. *sighs* Unfortunately.

...

What did you say your name was again?
From: [info]melante Date: 02/05/2007 00:13:30  

*smiles happily* Vendöré! I can help you! If you want to be helped. And if the person in your life isn't Beren because that seems to be my luck tonight. Who is your love?
From: [info]ivrinsun Date: 02/05/2007 00:18:40  

*her eyes widening* Oh! I've heard all about you. Your Majesty. My lady. Ma'am?

*is none too sure about this* *looks left and right to make sure nobody's eavesdropping*

Túrin?
From: [info]melante Date: 02/05/2007 00:22:00  

*shakes her head* No title is necessary.

Túrin?

*nods* Is it that he loves you in return and is just shy about expressing it? Or is it a one-sided attraction? Or something else, do you think?
From: [info]ivrinsun Date: 02/05/2007 00:26:57  

*glumly* I have no idea. He's been such a mess what with remembering his old life and all that it doesn't seem like he pays much attention to anything these days. But I try to look after him. When he's lucid enough to let me. :s
From: [info]melante Date: 02/05/2007 00:28:58  

Hmm. Yes. *nods* Go home. He will be there. He will be lucid? He will be receptive. Make of it what you will. That is all I can offer for now.
From: [info]ivrinsun Date: 02/05/2007 00:32:49  

*smiles hopefully and not at all pathetically, no, of course not* Do you think so? I ought to make sure he's all right then, poor love. *fretfully* Does my hair look okay?
From: [info]melante Date: 02/05/2007 00:36:37  

I know so. You look lovely not that he'll care much. Go to him before the enchantment wears off. If he loves you, he will stay with you. If not, well... *shrugs* at least there is tonight. Since the "sex" is all you care about.
From: [info]ivrinsun Date: 02/05/2007 00:39:48  

*doesn't need to be told twice!* *very much makes with the selective hearing as well* Thank you ever so much, my l- Vendórë.

*hurries off, beaming from ear to ear*
