Akibel Mowar is on his way home from the blacksmith's when he spots it. People are shrieking and fleeing from it, which seems reasonable, as it's a fuckoff huge snake with a mirror for a face. A big mirror.
Kib can't so much flee. He can shriek - he can lurch in the direction of the nearest house and try the door - it's locked. He can amble briskly...
He can break into a run when the snake gains on him and fall flat on his face.
And he can get eaten up.
And it's too bright too bright too bright and he flings his arm over his eyes.

"I doubt you have a strong opinion about marriages between first cousins, do you."
"...this is not information you need. But okay. Your first cousin is the child of your father's brother. Or mother's sister, whatever. Your second cousin is the grandchild of your grandfather's brother. Marrying first cousins is generally out, second cousins is fine."
"Because the point of romantic relationships is reproduction and you can't reproduce with close family, it's bad for the child."
"I don't know. The problem arises in animals too, though. They have different mechanisms for avoiding it."

"Huh, I don't remember hearing about that but I guess it might not be very memorable."
He shakes his head. They've circled the garden. "Thank you for coming by."
"See you tomorrow."
Findekáno is at Kib's workshop before the Mingling. Hey.

I am really glad to hear that.
Maitimo's been yelling at him for it all afternoon but that's also okay.
Are you still - alright, with him? Sometimes apologies do not fix things.

I mean, he could've handled it better but I think he knows that and did not set out to be a jerk in the first place? Things are not Eternally Ruined. Gonna pick up our Governor game tomorrow. I think I managed a reasonably discreet explanation for why not tonight.
Cool.
There are a lot of ways onto the walls of the city but here is one with minimal climbing, he apologizes that all his favored escapades in Tirion require some singing to be safe for Kib. "And, I mean, not all of them. I have in fact snuck into the palace in the middle of the night for some kissing on the throne. But."

"I can sing. No one will think anything of it. Elves like singing." And the view from the walls of the city is incredible.

"I have noticed this about Elves. It's a good combination with the pretty voices, it wouldn't go nearly as well if I'd landed somewhere full of sapient frogs which liked to sing."
"Or rather of our shared sensibilities; I'm sure the sapient frogs sound lovely to each other. Out in the distance, that's Taniquetil. Down south is the dinosaurs but you can't see them from here."
secondchance
"What are dinosaurs, besides excessively likely to savage me if I go pet them?"
"They're - like very very big birds, sort of. Some of them are a hundred feet tall. Most of them are harmless and eat plants, but there are dinosaur-eating dinosaurs."
"They're amazing - awe-inspiring to be around, a lot of fun to watch - but I wouldn't take you down there, not when if you die you die forever."

"I can wait until we have more data on how undying I can be made, it's okay."
