"Thank you for asking permission for me."

"Sure. I want to stay out a while longer."

"Sure!"

He stays out until well after the lights have changed, perfectly still, watching them with total delight.

Awwww.

And then they can head back in.

"Next time I'm bringing paper and something to draw with."

"You draw?"

"It is among my mediocre talents."

"It is a good place for it. We could come back but there're so many just as nice, to see -"

"Right, I meant next dinosaurs, not next time we see these ones."

"Tomorrow, first thing."

"Awesome."

They solicit suggestions on what to see next.

There are so many choices!

Ahya likes the sound of the bipedal ones with the flat bills.

"Sounds great."

So first thing the next morning they can leave to see the duck-billed dinosaurs! Ahya remembers to bring drawing materials.

The duck-billed dinosaurs don't want to get close, especially. That's not really a problem.

It is not! Ahya will sketch them and at one point when the crested ones start trumpeting the Elves can sing with them.

It's lovely.

It really, really is.

"Thank you for bringing me. This is even better than I had imagined."

"I really wish - everything'd - settled here."

"That would've been nice. Might mean this place was infected with--Tirionness, though."

"Maybe a bit, but - we're farther from Taniquetil, I really think that makes a difference."

"That is true. And if it hadn't made enough of a difference people could always find another place and build another city-where-people-go-to-get-away-from-Tirion."
