Strings and Things

[ Galadriel ]

Galadriel, if you are free, I would very much enjoy sitting down for some tea with you. I feel like we've been missing out on some proper conversation time again, but then I know you must have been distracted with one of your new residents ~ Do let me know when you have some time.

[And with that taken care of, Ashura did something he had not done in awhile - he went out to the gardens, found a nice spot beneath a tree with Agni and Sybil playing a little ways off, and across his lap would be something like looked a bit like a cross between a lute and a sitar. Expertly he tuned the strings on it, plucking a few to test their tune.

Assured of its readiness, he began to pluck away at a slow, but sweet song. It was a love ballad from his home world, though he did not attempt to sing the song that went with it. That had never been one of his talents. 

And since he had left the journal open so he could hear Galadriel's reply when it came, that meant that even if no one was near him, some people might be getting a serenade.]

A bit of both?

_{[He laughed.]}

Poor thing hasn't been on a loss in almost a year....

Heavens, can you believe it? A year....

[inafadingcrown]

I can, quite readily. I have had but one loss in my time here.

[wishmadeinfire]

Oh, no, I mean... just that we have both been here well over a year now. I am nearing my third, and he two, and then we have been together I think a year almost now...

[inafadingcrown]

[Oh, that.] Of course. Do you intend to mark the occasion?

[wishmadeinfire]

Perhaps. I shall speak of it with Felix. I think we shall just do a nice dinner together, something quiet.

[inafadingcrown]

That sounds pleasant enough.

[wishmadeinfire]

Hopefully he will take initiative and surprise me.
