The Evenstar looked down at him and returned the smile, "that she is, sir." Arwen admired every splash of gold that stained the walls and the memories held within them. "Anyone would be lucky to live here, this place has so much history and a sense of hope to it. Sometimes I find myself envying you dwarves." The elleth chimed, her grin widening.

Fili couldn’t help but grin more widely, his chest puffing out a little in pride.

"Aw, I dunno my lady. Rivendell is quite beautiful. I mean, it’s nothing on Erebor, but it’s pretty in its own way."

[askthedwarvishlion]

"There is gold splattered all over these walls... Could it be where the statue of your grandfather was melted?" Arwen questioned, observing every crevice of the hall. She had read up on Erebor and the events that happened in Bilbo's book. "Goodness, it's beautiful. You must be proud to be a prince of such a magnificent town."

"Yes, it is. Uncle melted the statue and tried to kill Smaug with the molten gold," he replied, running a hand over the nearest wall. He grinned up at her.

"She’s quite a beauty, isn’t she?"

[askthedwarvishlion]

"I see no harm in that." Arwen mused, walking beside Fili. "I've never been to a dwarven kingdom, I feel like I'm intruding but I have always wanted to see Erebor. So, thank you, master Fili. It would be silly of me to decline such an offer."

"Excellent! If you’d just follow me, my lady…" Fili said, heading off towards the gallery of kings. The gold statue of his grandfather was no longer there, but the gallery itself was still incredibly beautiful.

"Oh, of course they wouldn't, I know that!" Arwen laughed, imagining the arguments she would have with her father. "I'm not so sure that's a good idea... Dwarves aren't so fond of elves nowadays, plus it would be rude for me to drop by a dwarven kingdom unannounced. I'm just here because Gandalf asked me to pass on a message to your uncle, that is all."

"Perhaps I can show you around before you go?" Fili suggested.

"You really must see what’s been done to the place."

[askthedwarvishlion]

Arwen couldn't help but chuckle at is reasonse. "Yes, he does. I hope so,may least." The elleth giggled before shaking her head. "Oh, of course but it was a very dangerous quest. I would have loved to have joint you, I've always wanted to see Erebor in it's former glory. I never was a fan of Thranduil's decision."

"No offence, my lady, but I’m not sure your father… or my uncle… would have approved," Fili replied.

"You should come and visit. The kingdom isn’t quite up to it’s former glory, but it looks plenty impressive."

[askthedwarvishlion]

"Master Fili! An absolute pleasure, I am Lady Arwen, daughter of Elrond. I, rather unfortunately, missed you when you visited Imladris and was so desperate to hear of your quest I figured I must come find you myself." The elleth told him, curtsying as she did so. As she returned to her normal stature she gave him a bright smile. "You're very brave."

"Elrond has a daughter?" Not the smartest response, but Fili didn’t know Elrond had a daughter. He shook his head, grinning up at the elf-maiden before bowing to her.

"Thank you, my lady. But I was just trying to reclaim a lost homeland."

"Hmmm, you still look as handsome as ever, Bard." Arwen chuckled, running her slender fingers through his thick, long hair. "I've missed you so much." The elleth sighed, stroking his cheek gently. //This is a first for me I'm so sorry, I've let you and Jaimee down Omg forgive the shit writing ugh sorrysorrysorry

The slightest hint of a soft, rosy blush warmed the apples of the man’s stubble covered cheeks. “You’re not the only one to have done any missing, my dear, I assure you. Perhaps…there’s something you’d like me to do to make it up to you?”//Don’t be sorry, its great, keep it up!

[bowmanofesgaroth]

"Always..." She smiled into to kiss, resting her forehead against his. "You need not be sorry, my love, for it has made seeing you once again all the more special."

"Only a woman as wise as yourself would think such a thing." Bard couldn’t help but smile back as he let a hand wander into her long, dark longs.
