[Someone sounds a little gleeful as he opens his journal.] This carnival, it is amazing!

Have any one of you ever tried these 'candied apples.' How do you candy apples? And corn dogs, I am not sure that I entirely understand what they are but they are delicious. The funnel cakes as well though they were difficult to eat without a mess.

[If it's beginning to sound like Legolas has been gradually working on trying everything, it's because he is. He would make a Hobbit proud.] And then I was given a corn dog dipped in what they make the funnel cakes with.

[Someone stop him.]

Ah! Lady Galadriel, this 'cotton candy' they seem to have? Have you tried it?

[Oh boy... Dairine rubs her face with her hands, remembering a different blond-haired prince (king, Roshaun would irritatingly remind her) with a sugar problem. Maybe she would have better luck persuading this prince to slow down. Maybe.]

I think you've had enough.

[There might be the sound of the elf huffing.]

I have not had that much.

[Yes he has.]

[wizard_redfive]

[She doesn't believe him in the least.]

Uh huh. And how long have you been eating these snacks?

[Was he at least spacing them out over the past few days? Or (Powers forbid) has this been within a few hours?]

Dictated

[bow_of_the_galadhrim]

Since the morning.

[Sorry Dairine.]

[ Oh dear. Sheena's seen things like this back home--not to mention her own reaction to some of the festival food. ]

I think...you might want to stop and take a break for a little bit.

[Dictated]

[bow_of_the_galadhrim]

If I were to stop now, I may miss something later.

Re: [Dictated]

[ninjainviolet]

That is possible, but it's sometimes better to miss one or two things than all of it because you overdo it.

[ She paused. ]

Don't you think so?

[ ooc: Sorry this is late, but I'm taking a short hiatus from my hiatus? :) ]

[Dictated]

[bow_of_the_galadhrim]

I suppose. And I could always wish to try what I missed later on.

[Providing he didn't miss too much. He was pretty thorough.]

[ooc: totally okay! :)]

[dontpatr0nizeme]

I don't really know you, but I suggest you may want to lay off the sugar. You're starting to sound like a kid high on sugar.

[bow_of_the_galadhrim]

I am hardly a kid. [The pout can be heard in his voice.] And it would be a shame to waste the opportunity to try these things.

[dontpatr0nizeme]

No, you aren't. But you really do sound like one right now.

[bow_of_the_galadhrim]

Do I? Be glad you had no chance to know me as a child then.

[inafadingcrown]

If I say that I have not, I suppose that you will see to it that I do.

dictated

[bow_of_the_galadhrim]

Would you expect any less of me?

dictated

[inafadingcrown]

Truly, I would not. But, Legolas, I would show caution in your dealings with this carnival.

dictated

[bow_of_the_galadhrim]

I will be careful. And at the least now I can assure you that the food is not poisoned.

[wishmadeinfire]

It is all quite amazing isn't it? The ingenuity of these carnival people to produce amazing treats is astounding!

_{[ All of it is sooooo hard to resist. ]}

[bow_of_the_galadhrim]

It is! Stunning really, I can only imagine if such foods were available in Middle Earth.

[wishmadeinfire]

I am sure they could be made, could they not? They are all rather basic, or at the least the techniques are not difficult from what I understand.

Action?

[lightbranded]

Ah, Legolas? How much have you had?

[Will was starting to worry. ]

Action!

[bow_of_the_galadhrim]

Hm? [Oh, that's a good question really.] I admit I have not kept track.

[lightbranded]

[Will hesitates.]

Sometimes, eating too much of food like this can make people ill.

[freeslider]

[She's just going to laugh at him]

You sound like you're having fun.

[bow_of_the_galadhrim]

I admit, I am indeed. There is nothing like this where I am from.

[freeslider]

Really? Carnivals are a pretty old tradition even where I come from. Dates back to when entertainers and musicians would travel from place to place to entertain people. This is just a more involved version.
