[ A soft laugh ] Because she is full grown, and may make her own decisions. I do not doubt that she is far from them - they are a close family, from what I have seen, but equally so, I do think that necessarily means that she is always with them hm?

[muscovy]

But a part of her house would also be a part of Celeborn's house.

[He won't leave Maglor's side, and in a way... that just makes things a lot less complicated. The nation slowly relaxes and settles in against the elf's chest.]

How long did I sleep?

...idr how long was it?

[bythewaves]

I suppose you could see it that way. Or perhaps... mm, it is like ... adding an extra room, or ... a bridge between two houses. She belongs to both houses now.

Almost three full weeks. [ His arms tighten briefly around Muscovy ] I am so glad you are awake.

just under 3 weeks, 19th-7th

[muscovy]

[So there really is no better place to be than Maglor, or...

Hm.] Why didn't you ask your mother?

[He hugs Maglor back.] I did not get older while I was gone.

[bythewaves]

Because mother is busy, tithen pen. And... if things go wrong... she will be in as much danger as you. I bought her place with the Elvenking by promising my aid where it needed. I bought yours with my cousin's kind heart.

[ He drops a kiss to Muscovy's hair ]

I am glad.

[muscovy]

[And yet another reason to become strong enough to be self-sustainable or stay with Maglor; he doesn't trust "Kind heart" as a motivation, not so much due to being jaded and distrusts people but because it just is the way of the world that good-will and pity run out a lot more quickly than being indebted to someone.]

If you fall asleep, you must return, too.

[bythewaves]

I will try, Muscovy. [ Maglor promises quietly, and pushes down the darkness that looks so tempting ] But while I sleep, if I sleep, promise me you will not linger by my side but seek safety.

[muscovy]

...I will seek safety.

[Of whatever kind. But just for the very unfortunate case that both his mother and brother will be gone at a time like that, he will make sure that Maglor's body is safe first, and then find a way to wake him up again.]

[bythewaves]

Thank you. [ Maglor hugs him again ] If I know you are safe, it will be easier for me.

[muscovy]

[For a moment, he wants to demand that Maglor promises him to come back for him, but Sweden came back and ...he didn't stay again, only raided.

So he modifies it.] But you'll come back for me and stay then.

[bythewaves]

So much as it is within my power, yes, Musocvy, I will.

[muscovy]

[He doesn't look convinced (because he isn't) but snuggles a bit closer anyway and will remain that way for a while.]
