*flies home, having finally put Írissë on a plane back to Hísilómë* *thinks he just may sleep for a hundred years or so*

*makes a call to a certain man about a certain house and another call to have someone out immediately to sweep his own home for cameras and other recording devices, per his cousin's description of Eöl's obscene setup*

*drops his keys on the hall table and checks the mail* *finds an envelope addressed "Curufin Fëanorion, c/o Celegorm Fëanorion"*

*opens it, takes the contents into the living room, and stretches out on the couch to see how much the bitch is going to cost read them* *realizes he's starving and sends to the kitchen for some food*

*is informed that there will be a bit of a delay as his dear brother has eaten all the caviar in the house*

*...*

*wanders in, munching on a sandwich*

There you are? What the--? I mean, you just take off like that? Anyone would think you were, I dunno, me?
From: [info]tyelcormo Date: 06/14/2007 15:47:49  

*simply* Írissë was in trouble. *looks up from Finduilas's offering and frowns* Did I not say I was leaving?

*continues leafing through pages and reading through the fine print*
From: [info]atarince Date: 06/14/2007 15:53:21  

I dunno, maybe you did? Is she OK?

*drops down onto the couch beside you* What're you reading?
From: [info]tyelcormo Date: 06/14/2007 16:35:21  

*evasively* Yes, I suppose she is.

*looking distracted* Hmm? Oh. Your preliminary divorce settlement, apparently. *skims further* Unless I'm much mistaken, she's only asking for lawyer's fees. That can't be right.

*drops the folder full of papers in your lap*
From: [info]atarince Date: 06/14/2007 16:49:21  

*looks at the papers with amazement*

*suddenly starts to laugh*

Oh -- oh -- she really wants to be rid of me!
From: [info]tyelcormo Date: 06/14/2007 16:52:50  

*looks at you strangely*

*looks at the papers* *looks at you again*

Don't even think of telling me you're not going through with it.
From: [info]atarince Date: 06/14/2007 17:09:56  

*does not look that shifty*

But you know I'm no good at paperwork, brother-dearest. I don't know why my dearly beloved could not just have phoned me?
From: [info]tyelcormo Date: 06/14/2007 17:13:33  

*confiscates your sandwich and takes a bite from the untouched half*

*exasperatedly* Why are you so infatuated with this girl, anyway? There are a thousand women of better circumstance who would have you.
From: [info]atarince Date: 06/14/2007 17:15:49  

*indignantly* Hey, that's my dinner! I'm bloody starving.

*raises his eyebrows* Infatuated? She infuriates me. But -- *smiles smugly* -- I infuriate her too.
From: [info]tyelcormo Date: 06/14/2007 17:22:17  

*takes another bite* You can have it back when my caviar arrives. And not a minute sooner.

*pinches the bridge of his nose* I'm not sure you understand the point of marriage, Curvo. She has little money and even less power, yes? What, then, is the incentive?
From: [info]atarince Date: 06/14/2007 17:33:00  

I was unaware that money and power were the only incentives for marriage. Finduilas could have standing, I'm sure of it. She was a Princess of the Noldor, as we were Princes. *shrugs* Anyway, it's all terribly amusing that we should have argued our way to marriage.
From: [info]tyelcormo Date: 06/14/2007 17:46:07  

*drops your sandwich in your lap, too* *without any real ill feeling* Oh, yes, terribly amusing.

*lays back and closes his eyes* Perhaps somewhat less amusing when you remember that your wife is a common whore. ...Were you saying something about rank or standing?
From: [info]atarince Date: 06/14/2007 17:48:04  

*slyly* Well, she's very good at what she does. I rather admire her invention.
From: [info]tyelcormo Date: 06/14/2007 17:55:33  

*kicks you* All right, all right. I yield. Do what you like and don't let my years of wisdom and experience stop you, by any means.

Only don't continue in that manner, if you please. It's intolerable.
From: [info]atarince Date: 06/14/2007 18:08:26  

What manner? There's a manner? I have a manner?

*grins cheekily and leans across to plant a smacking great kiss on your cheek* You wouldn't have me any other way.
From: [info]tyelcormo Date: 06/14/2007 18:12:10  

*sighs in mock irritation* You'll note I didn't say manners. And you slobber nearly as much as the dogs, yet you're only half as interesting. How does that work?

*laughs* Is there any other way? I'm up for trying it if you are.
From: [info]atarince Date: 06/14/2007 18:16:50  

*loftily* I'm far more interesting than your dogs. Just because they're better trained.

*drapes his arm around your shoulders* Absolutely not. Back to the drawing board!
From: [info]tyelcormo Date: 06/14/2007 18:23:15  

*pats your cheek and smiles evilly* Well then, if you insist upon going about everything in your old way, you may as well bring my sister-in-law out for a visit. It's only proper, really.
From: [info]atarince Date: 06/14/2007 18:47:38  

*laughs* Oh, but Turco, you'd just be so horrible to her and I hate to see the scars she'd inevitably leave on you. You're far too pretty for that.
From: [info]tyelcormo Date: 06/14/2007 18:55:15  

Don't be ridiculous. I have every intention of being every bit as pleasant in her company as someone of her standing merits.

*feigning contemplation* You might refrain from going into raptures at my beauty while she's in the room, though. She'll feel hideously threatened and I really couldn't blame her.
From: [info]atarince Date: 06/14/2007 18:59:27  

*snorts* Eru help the poor woman, in that case.

Threatened? *airily* Why, she must know that you and I are inseparable. I have spent more time with you since my wedding than with her, even taking into account your recent escapades.
From: [info]tyelcormo Date: 06/14/2007 19:49:23  

*claps a hand to his mouth* What are you saying about the poor princess?

I have spent more time with you since my wedding than with her

*generously* In your defense, there is the small detail that she'd probably just as soon stab you as look at you, if you were to show up on her doorstep again.

*smirks* That or you just have a thing for blonds.
From: [info]atarince Date: 06/14/2007 19:54:29  

*beams maniacally* My very own whore, don't you mean?

*laughs* That's it. I've heard that blonds have more fun. I know I have more fun with blonds than with dreary brunettes.
From: [info]tyelcormo Date: 06/14/2007 19:57:19  

*patronisingly* Yes, Curvo. Your Very Own Whore.

*laughs* No blonds for me, thank you. I'm more fun than is easily manageable most of the time.
From: [info]atarince Date: 06/14/2007 20:00:44  

*rests his head against you comfortably* I can manage you. Most of the time.
From: [info]tyelcormo Date: 06/14/2007 20:06:55  

*puts an arm around you*

*looks down at you and raises an eyebrow* *amusedly* Oh, dear. I must try harder.
From: [info]atarince Date: 06/14/2007 20:12:11  

*pats your knee* Don't even think about it. One of us causing chaos at a time is quite enough and I may or may not have a very messy divorce ahead of me. Trying times, Turco. Trying times ahead.
From: [info]tyelcormo Date: 06/14/2007 20:21:13  

*sighs* *somewhat more seriously* You really ought to consider taking me up on my offer. I could help sway her to whatever side you like. Save me a lot of cleanup later.

*cheerfully* Really, just because I choose to crush the spirits of the inferior doesn't mean I'm incapable of doing otherwise. Don't you remember how it was in Nargothrond?
From: [info]atarince Date: 06/14/2007 20:27:14  

I think, perhaps, that I should sleep on it and I will let you know what my decision is in the morning.

*laughs* I do remember how it was in Nargothrond, although it was a boring old place at times. We could have done so well there, I suspect.
From: [info]tyelcormo Date: 06/14/2007 20:34:09  

*tousles your hair nearly irreparably* Good man.

*lets his head fall back against the cushion and and looks up at the ceiling* We did do well there. *dryly* Alas. If not for those damned Silmarils, et cetera, et cetera. I think I rather liked Nargothrond, dark and dank as it was.
From: [info]atarince Date: 06/18/2007 12:31:04  

*mildly* Hey, it took me a good three seconds to get my hair looking that good.

Nargothrond was interesting, I'll allow that, and it had potential too. I still think I prefer a bit of air and sunlight from time to time.
From: [info]tyelcormo Date: 06/19/2007 06:46:43  

As do I. I suppose it's just as well Artaher temporarily grew a spine. *has a sudden thought and grins* How happy he'll be to learn he has such a son-in-law. If he ever shows his face again.
From: [info]atarince Date: 06/19/2007 13:11:56  

*laughs* Oh, oh, if he did show his face, how priceless his expression would be! Can I keep her, then? For that reason alone?
From: [info]tyelcormo Date: 06/19/2007 13:22:34  

*sighs and looks put out* *very seriously* Only if you promise to do all the feeding and walking and take her to the vet regularly. I have my hands full with just you.
