What?

Permalink

...to legally register the marriage and have a party about it.

Permalink

Oh. That's not the part I meant.

Permalink

I think maybe the word you want isn't "marriage".

Permalink

That is definitely the word I want.

Permalink

...can you back up a bit and explain?

Permalink

Uh, when a man and a woman love each other very much and want to spend eternity together they ask for Eru's blessing and then they marry, and then they're married, and everyone can see it in their eyes.

Permalink

We don't have Eru or the eye thing.

Permalink

I guess that's why you'd do paperwork and a party, then, so everyone knows.

Permalink

Yes, but anyway I really don't think that green was thinking of doing paperwork with me and I am trying to figure out where exactly the misunderstanding is.

Permalink

No, he was thinking about the marrying part, not the telling everybody part. I would be more specific if I knew exactly what went into the marrying part. You unbraid your hair?

Permalink

We also don't have the hair thing.

Permalink

Yeah so I have no idea what your marriage is! He was imagining kissing things.

Permalink

Those typically precede and accompany non-companionate marriages but can also happen by themselves.

Permalink

Not with Elves. 

Permalink

...well, if that works for Elves, I guess...

Permalink

I don't see how it would work otherwise. 

Permalink

What are you expecting to go wrong?

Permalink

Uh, you'd be married.  You're saying 'sometimes we get married but as a casual thing not as a marriage'. This would make more sense if I knew exactly what marriage was but I'm pretty sure that if you do the things you're talking about then you are married.

Permalink

...I have no idea how to disentangle this.

Permalink

Me neither. Sorry. Maybe Bella will be able to help.

 

"I don't think you're evil," he tells the anxiously waiting greens.

        " - okay. So we can learn magic?"

Permalink

"Yeah."

Permalink

Greens are delighted!

Permalink

Good for them.

"Do you want me to walk them through the first scroll so you can work on your teleport?" she asks Fëanáro.

Permalink

"That sounds good."
