A Wonderful Day in the Neighborhood: Bingo Bolger-Baggins

[bingo_bolger_baggins]

So we finally arrived home at Back End without further incident with our First Age guest. We had a spot of tea and did some chatting all around, and then Feanor stepped outside and that's when Further Incident made an appearance, not a very major one, but an appearance nonetheless in the form of a loud crack that we all went out to investigate, and which turned out to be a tree limb felled by Feanor's instigation. This seemed to be accompanied by a family reunion of sorts between Feanor and Celebrimbor. They went to see Celly's smithy while the rest of us went in to get dinner together. But everyone is invited when they're ready to come in and take a seat at the table.

Let's see what we have in the wine cabinet. We have wine from Woodhall--that's good. Ah, and here's one from the vineyards by the Gulf of Lune and one from the Havens--made with Elven palates in mind--let's put those out as well. Shall I pour, or should we wait?

*laughs affectionately at Melba and Celly's play, her eyes widening in surprise as Celly recounts her story about Féanor accepting the goblet*

*echoing Bingo's happiness for her* Oh, that's amazing Celly! What an incredible honor! *brightly* And you said there was something else?

*nods happily* Get this. He said he's going to send me one of his lamps! Can you believe it?

*jaw drops* Really?! *caught up in her enthusiasm* That is just-- wow, there are no words, are there? *laughs* What a wonderfully exquisite gift. *regards her fondly* I am very happy for you, Celandine.

*giggles, returning her bright grin* Thank you. Even if he forgets--I'm sure he has other important things on his mind--it's a lovely offer. They've been awfully kind to me, these Noldor.

*smiles somewhat bittersweetly, as she remembers how brightly the Noldor can shine when they are at their best*

*takes her hand and says softly* I am glad for that, Celly. Lady knows you are more than deserving of any kindness or honor the Noldor can bestow.
