Hug hug hug.

I love you and I'm so proud of you and I suppose Eru really couldn't have picked anyone else, but -

I'm not sure if the world-saving part was the intended result or just an acceptable side-effect of seeing the look on my face near a mind controlling magical object that scales in both actual power and compellingness with how much people around it want things.

"Eep."

It was probably a pretty good look on my face.

Well. If Eru learned to derive enjoyment from facial expressions that's, uh, something.

Weak giggling.

More hug. Mandos wasn't getting backups - I was so worried -

I'm okay. Except for a couple approaches of the ring I've been just fine.

The ring thinks she'd have been such a good ringbearer.

Rúmil turns to stare at it. "Uh."

"Our Valar fixed the mind control part and I am ignoring it out of spite."

"I love you."

"I love you too!"

"They published a design for faster-than-light travel. About six months ago."

"- well, the timing is - uh - I am very glad I did not land here pregnant."

He shivers.

"Yeah."

"Perhaps ways of preventing interdimensional kidnapping can be developed once everything more urgent is handled."

"Perhaps! But two seems like an unprincipled number of worlds. Maybe there are more."

"And maybe their Erus need a talking-to?"

"Even if they don't, why not visit?"

"Does the ring still give out nigh-omnipotence or did that go away with the mindcontrol?"

"I'm not sure." Does the ring have a comment.

Still super powerful does she wanna put it on?

"Maybe Celebrimbor can check it over or the Valar can or something to see if it's good for anything or if it should just have a tragic volcano accident."
