"I'll message them."

 

Laurië wants to meet other Macalaurës, she sends. I think she should meet Makarial first.

There's a war in one of their neighbors and it's getting to the point where he is considering ending it and announcing both parties have been absorbed. "Mmmm?"

"Why does your new alt think I should meet my new alt ahead of the Elves?"

Permalink

He giggles. "Go, and tell me if you don't have it figured out in an hour."

So he heads over to the new Arda. He lands outside the gates of its Tirion, walks through the city.

"Oh good," she says, and rushes out into the street and into his arms.

They will both start singing!

Pretty. How do they both know the lyrics and the harmony, though, that's the question -

It has never occurred to me to ask how Elves coordinate all the singing and even if it had I suspect my question would stand what with one of those people being a non-Elf.

Osanwë- and yeah, she has to be leading -

So it's improvised on the spot? How very musical-logic.

Earth art form, did you never run into any? Theatrical or film productions where the characters start singing without any of them acknowledging that this is not a human-typical activity - it's sort of hard to describe the way in which it's conventional for the songs in musicals to work, we normally pick it up by exposure...

Anyway, I expect they're improvising. 

Permalink

Yeah.

 

A crowd is gathering.

Permalink

Is the audience part of their cunning plan or incidental?

Permalink

And they'll announce their engagement when critical mass has assembled or something?

Permalink

You've got it. Critical mass or at least some people with cameras.

Permalink

Giggle. Swaying to the music.

Permalink

It's very pretty music!
