action, dictated.

[bronwe]

[ By all rights, Frodo should be mad about what happened, but the consequence is amusing and he has never been one for grudges. He surprisingly has a good voice, though singing ridiculous verses are usually reserved for the younger hobbits.

At least now he has an entirely legit excuse to do it! ]

There were two men, two drunk merry men
who took and offered us for a boon;
that winter may end and spring come early,
but the gift fell short and the castle made surly
so now I must sing my words in tune!

[ He can be found sitting by a kitchen counter with legs dangling off the floor. A mug of ale in front of him and seeming rather perky. ]

Dictated forever

[whichwayyoulean]

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh so that's what happened.

That explains the weird memory loss, I guess.

Singing forever

[bronwe]

Oh what surprise, do tell, did the castle on you spell?

[findatree]

So they tried to make winter go away
And now you're the one who has to pay?
Seems kinda unfair if I have my say.

this is singing, forever

[bronwe]

There is much in the world that's unfair, yet in this I know there is penance they too bear.

dictated CHANGED MY MIND SRYSRY

[not_mafia]

[Two drunk men?... oh god, this is what Once-ler was just talking about, wasn't it?

Then this had to be...]

Frodo-san, is that you?

NO WORRIES <3

[bronwe]

Frodo is my name, I am indeed one and the same!

Dictated

[cyan_maid]

[Isn't that Frodo over the journal today?]

They...offered you? To what, the castle? And now you have to sing? Aren't you a little upset?

Dictated

[bronwe]

Song brings joy to the heart, I can't begrudge them giving me a cause to start!

[willrememberthat]

Frodo, you sing so good!

[Totally not paying attention to what he said, though.]

[bronwe]

If it isn't my dearest Clementine, for whom I would sing verses as bright as sunshine!

[wilder]

[He's just...going to sit somewhere and pray that you do not figure out anything that rhymes with Zelos Y E P]

[bronwe]

[ Oh look, it is his friend Zelos,
Why is he so sparing with hellos? ]

Dictated

[bow_of_the_galadhrim]

[That sound? Is the sound of a certain elf laughing at his expense. He will no doubt pay for it later, whether by Frodo or Galadriel or Celeborn's scolding, but this was priceless.]

Foreveeeer

[bronwe]

Why do you only laugh, Legolas, when your gift with songs mine surely surpass?

[assassino]

[GRINNING........... LIKE AN IDIOT.... on his end of the journal...]

I'm glad you see it was all in good fun!

[bronwe]

[ HEY JERK. Frodo's laughing though. ]

Yet I should change my mind, when I soon run out of rhymes!

[silentrunning]

[And Chell just happens to be wandering through the kitchen. She's in a rather wandering mood today as it were, and she catches his song. And without any hesitation, she sets down her journal on the counter, and applauds vigorously, face lighting up in a grin.]

[bronwe]

[ Frodo laughs. This singing and rhyming thing is getting so tiring, even if it seems to come naturally, and does a little bow. ]

dictated

[inafadingcrown]

[At least he sounds fairly content with it.]

Dare I ask the identities of these two men? [From her tone, there's a strong possibility that they may be in trouble with her.]

dictated

[bronwe]

You could ask me their aim before you do their names.

[eat_me_beat_me]

[There's a snort before someone starts laughing]

Oh man is this your first loss?

[bronwe]

Is it still a loss when one is not cross?

[wishmadeinfire]

<sub>[It seems Frodo and Ashura shall become fast friends if the kitchen is where they meet. Like the hobbits, Ashura was a foodie at heart. Seriously, he loved to eat, but part of that was feeding his body's need for energy to fuel his use and control of his Talent.

He smiled when he saw the little Hobbit and clapped at his son, laughing brightly.]</sub>

You sing quite well, little one! You seem to have many a hidden talent.

[bronwe]

[ The kitchen is where it's at! Frodo has no food in front of it right now, only the journal and that nice mug of ale. He chuckles in return. ]

The castle sees need to reveal it, when only beer would have me never quit.

[peacockherald]

_{[ He chuckles, but not to be mean, though it does make him sad, to hear someone sing. He could not, nor play music - his Gift taken from him as payment. At least he could still listen and appreciate it in others.]}

Well, I suppose there are worse losses to be on then having to sing.

[bronwe]

[ Frodo's no gifted musician, he hits the notes just enough to make a song and not more. ]

Many more worse curses, yes, than to have to speak in verses.
