Dictated/action- Some cake and tea

[unexpected_adventures]

After recent events involving the certain "Gentlemen", I think everyone deserves some mood cheering somewhat. I'd like to invite anyone who wants to, around my cozy little hobbit hole. You will be most welcome, as I have a variety of cheeses, cakes and wines. Ale too, for a certain dwarf friend. [Yes, that's you, Thorin.]

Thorin, Frodo, Lara? I know you know me, so you'd be welcome at anytime. As for anyone else, who wishes to have a slice of cake and a cup of tea, you are welcome too. [Hobbits are well-known for their kindness.] Well, that's about it I think.

Action

[fuckelves]

You know me far too well, Master Baggins! And to think there was a time when you would have preferred to not have Dwarves in your dining room!!

[Though in his defense that was a party of uninvited guests, and this was him accepting an actual invitation!]

[unexpected_adventures]

Ah, Thorin! I hoped you would arrive soon, as I know how partial you dwarves are to an ale or two. The good thing about the castle is that it can always clean up mess afterwards. Not like back home after your lot destroyed my cozy, little home. [He is teasing you, Thorin.]

[fuckelves]

That is indeed a handy feature...'tis a pity this place can be so cruel and wicked, elsewise it would be the ideal home for Dwarves in that regard!

But at any rate! Let the ale flow freely then, Master Baggins!!

dictated

[footnote]

[Now this sounded like his sort of person to be trapped in a magical castle with. Aziraphale has to admit he is very partial to a nice cheese and wine, so he's not about to pass up this opportunity.]

We haven't met, sir, but I should be most pleased to join you, if you are amenable?

[beastisbeauty]

Thank you. I'm Bruce Banner. I'm glad I'm not the only one fond of tea, here.

dictated for now

[inafadingcrown]

[Sounding vaguely amused] Need I schedule my visit in advance to avoid a quarrel with aforementioned dwarf friend?

[unexpected_adventures]

Indeed. I am still trying to find my way around this castle, even though I've been here over a month or so now. [He shook his head, smirking.]

Well, of course! [He carried over a jug of ale from a nearby serving trolley. Filling up a large flagon, he passed it to Thorin.] To good health!

Re: dictated

[unexpected_adventures]

Of course! I did offer this message to anyone in the castle, so feel free to tuck in and enjoy yourself. May I ask your name?

[unexpected_adventures]

Nice to meet you, Mr. Banner. I am Bilbo Baggins of Bag End. [He bowed politely.] Tea? Oh, I love the stuff. Can't live without it.

Re: dictated for now

[unexpected_adventures]

Oh, of course not, my lady. If Thorin becomes rowdy and drunk, I shall remove him from my residence. Or try to. I will not be having any rudeness whilst you are here, my lady. [Good luck, Bilbo.]

[inafadingcrown]

[A little laugh] It is not an excess of drink that worries me, Master Baggins. [More like an excess of egos, with the two of them in the same room.]

But I would be delighted to pay you a visit, if you would have me.

[lara_the_explorer]

Awfully kind of you, Bilbo.

[beastisbeauty]

It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Baggins. [Bruce nods awkwardly, not at all used to bowing or other such gestures.] I've planted some herbs and roots in my garden that can be used for tea. You're welcome to have some.

[footnote]

Oh, how rude of me, I do apologise! I am Mr. Arthur Fell, at your service.

[It seemed prudent to keep using the name he had given to Lucrezia, just in case it got around. Besides, Arthur was a nice name, very legendary.]

[unexpected_adventures]

Nice to meet you, Mr. Fell. I am Bilbo Baggins of Bag End. A hobbit of the Shire, if you didn't already know. [Because he is very proud of that.]

[unexpected_adventures]

Oh you have? How interesting. What sort of herbs and plants? Just call me a curious hobbit is all. [Bilbo loves gardening, ok?] I am rather proud of my own garden at home.

[unexpected_adventures]

[He nodded silently. He is rather at a loss of words when he meets the lady of the elven folk.]

Of course I will have you, my lady. You are always welcome at my hobbit hole.

[unexpected_adventures]

Lara! Good to see you again. Have you been using that camer-y machine to take pictures lately?

[footnote]

[He would be very excited, except he's only read a book about Gildo Gabby of the Farmland.]

I didn't, but it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Mr. Baggins. I shall be with you shortly, as a cup of tea sounds just the ticket.

[lara_the_explorer]

I have. I documented parts of town.

[fuckelves]

[Thorin smiles as he reaches eagerly for the flagon and holds it up to Bilbo in a toast.]

And fine friends!!

[He greedily takes a long drink from his flagon with a broad grin on his face.]

Dictated

[im_the_doctor]

Oh, I rather like cake and tea!

[beastisbeauty]

Oh, that's all right. Well, so far, I have peppermint, chamomile, and lavender, to name some of the more common ones. I'm trying to grow some roses for rose hips, too.

I've never had a garden before.

[inafadingcrown]

Might I beg directions to your 'hobbit hole?' I fear this place changes far to swiftly for me too know of all the rooms offhand.

[unexpected_adventures]

Yes, of course! [Bilbo bashes his own flagon against Thorin's, with a large smirk over his face.]

How have you been fairing, Thorin?
