[There is a white wolf in the library, strange, isn't it? It is under a table, surrounded by several books about gardening, she's leaning all over them, passing the pages with her paws and sometimes her nose... Eew. Her journal is open next to her and words seem to appear magically in it, even when she's not even moving at all.]

[Once-ler; and those who like plants and gardening.]



{{ooc; Transcription for those who can't read my ugly handwriting:
How to grow a tree!
What you will need:
Seeds (important!)
Dirt! D'uh
Time (we have all the time of the world here, no excuses!)
and patience Lots of it ... :|
and other stuff...

1. Get your seeds... Try not wishing because you know how the castle gets... anyway get your seeds
   any kind will do for now


2. Take your seeds (or seed...) and lay them out to dry until there is no moisture on the outside shell.
   (You don't have to leave your room for this, the window will do.)


3. Cover your seeds with a damp paper towel and place them in the fridge (I think they mean that contraption where you keep food cold!). You will have to leave them there for a month at least. HAVE PATIENCE! Also, make sure the towel stays damp.
   Apparently this speeds up the process, I didn't know!
   After a few weeks, the seeds should have sprouted! If they didn't DON'T WORRY!


4. Put the sees in a small cup of potting soil and remember to make sure that the soil stays damp but not wet. And now we wait some more!
   It should grow a bit more.


5. Transplant (carefully) the new sprouted seeding to a larger pot and keep watering daily.


6. Pick the location of your tree. Choose a planting Any place in Paradisa works, just make sure it's bit enough!


7. Transplant your seeding to the outdoors!
   (Yes, you have to go out to do this...)
   Once it is big enough, so no one will step on it, dig a hole much wider than the roots to allow them to grow easily. Water the soil...


8. Let nature take care of the rest.

[If the yawn wasn't enough, there is a moment where she starts nodding once or twice until she rests her head on the open book. Her own snoring wakes her up though! Shakes her head in order to clear her mind and it's when she catches the man looking at her.

Hello! Well, she doesn't quite say it, but she stares at him with gentle eyes (probably more like, sleepy) and a slow wagging of her tail.]

[silvertree]

[ Still watching the wolf from afar, Celeborn couldn't help but eye the creature fondly once it glanced towards him. Despite his earlier concerns about having such a beast lay siege to the library; it would seem that this wolf is far more gentler than others of her kind.

How odd. Are all the animals in this strange realm so placid? Certainly seems like it. ]

...Greetings.

[mom_to_us_all]

[Flicks her ears at the greeting, she seems to smile at it. A bit lazily, she gets up from the floor and stretches, then pads nonchalantly to the man. Oh? The more she approaches the more she can recognize a particular smell... And now that she notices better... He looks different!

Oh holy bones! Could it be?

She approaches faster, sitting in front of him and leaning forward as if trying to look beyond the obvious or something of the sort. Then raises a paw to shake!]

[silvertree]

[ While it's quite bizarre to see an animal behave so human-like, Celeborn couldn't help but feel somewhat at ease around Amateratsu. The wolf is well-mannered, more so than most people. However, once she started sniffing the air around her Celeborn grew perplexed.

Was she trying to pick up his scent? Certainly seems like it. ]

Has something tickled your curiosity?

[ He asked before gently shaking the hound's paw. ]

[mom_to_us_all]

Arf! [She says in reply, not that it might mean anything to the elf. Oh yes, he had to be an elf! The posture, the features, and of course the smell! It was so very Galadrielish in a way.]

[silvertree]

[ While he isn't quite certain what that bark means, Celeborn wonders if the wolf does understand what he's saying. It certainly seems bright enough to understand him if it can read. So in hopes of communicating with it better, Celeborn introduces himself. ]

You may not understand me fully, but I am Celeborn. I hail from the realm of Lothlórien.

[ Excuse him while he pets her. Wolves are typically feared, but this wolf is too adorable to be feared. ]

Who might you be?

[mom_to_us_all]

[It's a bit sad that she can't really say anything to the introduction, that's the part where her Celestial Envoy usually intervenes; she could go get her journal and write it down, but that would be just too easy, wouldn't it? Besides being a sucker for pets as she is, she's not making any effort to go anywhere.]

[silvertree]

[ Gently scratching behind her ears, Celeborn was more than content for the wolf to hold her silence. After all, he hadn't really excepted her to speak.

That would've been too peculiar. ]

Such a kind creature you are. So welcoming and friendly.

[mom_to_us_all]

[If he only knew how peculiar she is. But this kind creature is starting to fall asleep right there with all the attention to her ears. She yawns, long and wide.]

[silvertree]

[ A warm smile settled on his lips as he gazed at the sleepy wolf. ]

I suppose you've done enough reading for the day.

[ While he wasn't quite aware of Amaterasu' divinity as of yet, Celeborn could definitely sense something wasn't quite normal about this wolf. Trying not to chuckle as she threatened to doze off to sleep, a thought suddenly passed through his mind. ]

Had I been certain that my wife would appreciate having a new companion; I would be more than willing to have you stay with us.

[mom_to_us_all]

[FDSGS that actually wakes her up!]

Huh? [This little yip of her sounds very much alike a "huh" anyway.]

[silvertree]

Mani naa ta?

[ Well that certainly startled him. Just a second ago, the hound looked as if she may fall asleep. However, now Amaterasu is wide awake. ]

Are you well? If you are uneasy with the thought of being our companion, then worry not. Galadriel is quite fond of all creatures as long as their hearts are pure.

[ Now he's hesitant to pet the wolf. ]

[mom_to_us_all]

[Oops, she didn't mean to startle him like that, wags her tail a little. Places her paw on Celeborn's knee for a second or two, probably as if she was saying thanks, but then after she removes it she goes back to that place under the table.]

[silvertree]

[ He watches her with a raised brow while silently wondering if his offer had been denied. A creature such as this is meant to be free, correct? Celeborn frowns a little since he should've noticed such a truth sooner. ]

That is a "No", isn't?

[ Returning to the table he sat at earlier, Celeborn retrieves a few books he wish to take for later. ]

Very well, I shall take my leave of you. Be mindful of your studies, noble wolf.
