There is fine!

Is there a way to let Findekáno know she's going home? He might worry, and he's not horrible.

They can send a herald of the Valar. Her judgment of him seems a little kind, though; he sleeps with men, after all. That is pretty horrible.

...no not especially.

There are admittedly lots of people who are worse.

That is not really what she was getting at.

She has some gay vampire memories! Vampires can't afford to be bigoted about this sort of thing, wouldn't get them anywhere.

Well, Elves and vampires might be different. Also note how all of those are serial killers.

Not all of them. Gianna's not.

Still. Eru said not to do that, and the Elves know better. If Findekáno'd avoided it in the first place he'd never have caught the attention of the evil King.

Victim-blaming.

It seems fairly obvious that if Findekáno didn't sleep with men none of this would have happened! What's the problem with this observation, is it another incarnate thing?

Well, if Findekáno were a girl and Maitimo liked girls, or vice versa, the exact same thing could have happened anyway. The problem is Maitimo being evil, that's all.

Yeah. Okay. They'll send a courier to Findekáno and the courier will not suggest to him that his problems could have been avoided by abiding by Eru's law. 

It's probably occurred to him at least once in the last three and a half centuries, she's sure. Why did Eru even make gay people if they're just supposed to suffer? She could cope indefinitely without romance or the hope of it if that were a good idea for some reason (in fact she has a wolf, but) but she's weird.

It's character-building to cope indefinitely without romance or the hope of it, but also if anyone doesn't want their character built the Valar will just fix them.

Hiss.

Can she explain?

Yes. Yes she can.

Well.

Offering still seems better than not offering. In case people would like to get fixed.

Sure. She's got memories from a wolf who didn't want to be gay anymore and went and found himself an imprint. But this is mostly because people would have made his life hard if he'd just gone around being gay. And those people are jerks.

But was he happy once he found himself an imprint?

Yep. Just not quite himself as he was anymore.

So, seems like a good option for people to have if they'd like. The Valar will not be jerks to people, but they will tell people Eru's will because people ought to know what Eru wants, even if they decide not to listen.

Elspeth is kinda not sure why it matters what Eru wants.

It matters to lots of people, even if Elspeth isn't one of them.

Sure. But going out of your way to make sure everybody knows implies it ought to matter to them. Nobody's going around making sure everyone knows a random human farmer's opinions on gay people because no one cares to imply that. Why?
