*is dozing on the floor of his study amidst and under a pile of books*

	From: celebr1an	Date: 04/20/2007 11:21:12

*laughs quietly at the sight in front of her*

*steps carefully towards you and moves some of the books out of the way*

*leans down and ghosts a kiss across your lips* Someone tried to stay up past his bedtime, didn't he?

	From: elrondmd	Date: 04/20/2007 11:35:36

*blinks up at you*

*looks around groggily* Oops? *pulls himself to his feet, one foot slipping on the cover of a book*

*gives you a proper kiss* I couldn't put it down. *smiling* You know how it goes. How is my lady wife?

	From: celebr1an	Date: 04/20/2007 11:40:33

*laughs* Yes, my love, I know how it goes.

*slips her arms around your waist and smiles up at you* I had a most extraordinary evening. Do you know Mablung, that rather energetic fellow? Marchwarden?

	From: elrondmd	Date: 04/20/2007 11:43:29

*drapes one arm over your shoulder*

Mablung? *scratches his chin thoughtfully* Oh, yes. Fixed up his face awhile ago. *cheerfully* Sort of a rough element, that one, isn't he?

	From: celebr1an	Date: 04/20/2007 11:46:47

*laughs* Rather rough, yes. Anyway, he took me for a drink although it was at Larry's so, really, I paid for it, until he pays his tab and then he took me to this place and, Elrond, it was like Arda. It was -- beautiful and old and it was just -- memories.

*starts picking up books, marking them, and returning them to their shelves according to the Elrond Decimal System, of course*

Like Arda? *laughs* Brí, are you sure he didn't slip something in your drink when your back was turned?

	From: celebr1an	Date: 04/21/2007 09:26:25

*considers this* Oh, he could have, I daresay, but he didn't. There is this place, deep in the city, and there are tapestries and singers and candlelight. It is beautiful, Elrond.

*sits up on your desk and watches you with affection*

	From: elrondmd	Date: 04/21/2007 16:33:23

*somewhat confusedly* That sounds just lovely and...don't you like it here now, dear?

	From: celebr1an	Date: 04/21/2007 16:49:58

*candidly* I like it here with you. That is it, quite simply. I care not if we are on Arda or Órë or any other world beyond our imagining, provided I am with you.

	From: elrondmd	Date: 04/21/2007 16:55:32

*smiles after a moment, as if not quite expecting your answer* Oh. Well. Good.

*comes over to sit next to you* Will you take me there sometime? I'm surprised we didn't know about it earlier. *lifts a finger* After our holiday, I mean.

	From: celebr1an	Date: 04/21/2007 17:04:08

After our holiday, yes. *smiles warmly at you before frowning* Oh. I had champagne for us but I left the bottle at Larry's.

	From: elrondmd	Date: 04/21/2007 17:11:41

Oh, that's all right. *keeping his tone light* Eru knows what's become of Imladris since we've been gone. I imagine wherever we're staying can at least dig up some champagne.

*squeezes your hand* I'm so excited. I have so many issues of JMEMA to catch up on. *looking like a kid in a candy store* And this year's drug guide is finally out!

	From: celebr1an	Date: 04/21/2007 17:14:03

As long as it's decent champgane.

*rolls her eyes* *moves around to stand in front of you* *slings her arms over your shoulders* If you think I am going to let you read while we're on vacation, you have another think coming. I intend to keep you very busy indeed.

	From: elrondmd	Date: 04/21/2007 17:18:21

*is honestly alarmed* *takes your hands in his* Brí. Isn't that what vacation's for? Lying out in a lawn chair with a good book or medical journal?

	From: celebr1an	Date: 04/21/2007 17:20:22

*laughs softly and kisses you gently* And I thought it was for this. For us.

	From: elrondmd	Date: 04/21/2007 17:22:56

*quickly* Of course it is, darling. I won't ruin whatever- *bites his lip to keep from laughing* -fun you have planned.




Just one issue?

	From: celebr1an	Date: 04/22/2007 14:46:09

And you can be sure I have a great deal of fun planned. I hope you're packing your walking shoes.


*wrinkles her nose* Only if it's a short one.
