"Do you think an accident is the likeliest source of trouble, there?"

"It's the likeliest opportunity for trouble."

"If you'd had more control over how the Elf things came to light, how would you have arranged it, do you think?"

Permalink

"I would have wanted there to be a demon emplaced in Valinor for correspondence before people found out."

Permalink

"That'd be really lovely. Or at least an Elf willing to answer questions, I think that'd help tremendously."

Permalink

"I still have hopes for the demon correspondence thing but it may take Elf or Vala lengths of time."

Permalink

"How long is that?"

Permalink

"Too long."

Permalink

"Do you suppose some of the Elves could be persuaded to answer questions in the meantime?"

Permalink

"Probably. Especially Elvis."

Permalink

"I suppose one probably wouldn't be Elvis if they weren't fond of attention."

Permalink

"Yes, exactly."

Permalink

"He can't be meeting girls, though, I am certain that would have made headlines. Even with all the important things in the headlines these days."

Permalink

"He got more proposals than I did but it turns out he's married."

Permalink

"To someone equally fond of attention, I should hope?"

Permalink

"She's in Valinor and he hasn't seen her in thirty thousand years. Elves are really monogamous."

Permalink

"I suppose if you were of a society in which everyone knew they had all of eternity that would not seem quite so absurd."

Permalink

"I guess."

Permalink

"I should dearly hope it would still seem absurd but probably a little less so."

Permalink

"Well, I'm immortal and I still think it's ridiculous."

Permalink

"I think if I very much loved someone for ten thousand years it might take a while to get over them, were we tragically separated. But, uh, at some point it would just be unhealthy."

Permalink

"I don't think they were even together that long to begin with but I'd have to consult my notes on the timeline."

Permalink

"Should people start digging into Elven history or should that wait until the correspondence with Valinor is all set?"

Permalink

"I'd like it to wait even longer than that. There are some long moot conflicts that people might find interesting if they looked them up and they might try to un-moot them and that would suck."

Permalink

"Noted. I will be a responsible historian and keep anything I notice confined to astonishingly dry academic journals. Which have nonetheless been significantly livened lately by debates over whether peer review should include demon-summoning."
