[ Hello little niece, have Maglor come up and drop a kiss on the crown of your head ]
Ah now, your father will have good reason to be cross with me, but I think I could not leave you trapped there any longer!

[Her hero! She'll give him a quick hug and peck on the cheek in return.]
I think that he will understand. Considering the situation at hand.

One can hope so! [ He would rather not be punched again, thanks ]
Come, let us move away lest we are again snared! Tis a poor situation for you, I think, without Elrond here. But at least you have relations enough eh?

[She'd rather he not get punched either.]
A good idea. I was stuck long enough beneath it, I'd prefer not to be again.

[ They go to move and Celebrian walks free... but Maglor does not, and he makes an exasperated noise ]
Oh not again!
Oh not again!
[Sorry Maglor, she can't help but laugh at his predicament and how he'd gone and helped her escape and now this.]
It seems that it does not give up so easily. [She practically skips to his side and presses a kiss to his cheek.] Better?

[ He grumbles under his breath and smiles gratefully at her when he feels the spell lift ]
Thank you, little niece. Much better, yes. It seems they can occasionally be very specific!

And do not take well at all to losing their victims, it seems!
[She laughs softly again, giving him a little tug to pull him away from the doorway and mistletoe.]

[ he makes a face and follows her full willing, breathing a soft sigh of relief to be out of the malignant mistletoe's effects ]
Indeed! Thank you, little niece. I think we had both be careful where we walk, eh?

[Oh. She's heard stories about mistletoe. Stories. Please excuse her while she stands there looking at it curiously.]
[ Nuada has come to the conclusion that the little holly sprigs are chaos spirits in disguise. How else would you explain people all over the castle caught underneath them, unable to flee, forced to stand in one place until some obliging soul helps them out.
Nuada himself was trapped early underneath one of those miserable plants and he knows well the tediousness of it.
It's a good thing for the prince that his wanderings have brought him down this particular hallway, right? Of course. He slows his pace, allowing footfalls to sound audibly against the floor, thinking the younger elf might appreciate the heads up. He separates himself from the shadows that help conceal his presence at the very last moment and substitutes a bow for a nod of his head. ]
Your Highness.

[ The troubled expression Legolas wore changes upon the approach. It's a smile instead that makes its way up to his lips and eyes both, though not without a fair share of mirth when he's greeted quite like this. It doesn't upset him, he is a prince after all, but it's still not a title he's exactly used to hearing outside of the folk in their Realm.
Certainly not from his equals or... friends. Legolas laughs, tipping his head back. ]
What punishment must I devise so that you may cease calling me this!
[ Friends don't call friends such fancy, haughty titles, no matter the kind tones behind them. He may be stuck, but he certainly has his priorities straight and addresses what matters to him more than the silly plant holding him hostage in some magical manner. ]

[ Faramir does not like this tradition, no he certainly does not. But oh look, someone he recognises ]
Lord Legolas! [ Help plz ]
Lord Legolas! [ Help plz ]
[ Let us just say Legolas has been blessed so far to not have had the pleasure of being trapped beneath one of those, and so he approaches with no second thoughts or wariness. It is Faramir, after all, a good and dear friend, who would not lead him astray, right??
Right. ]
What is it, my friend?
Right. ]
What is it, my friend?
[ ...UM ]
Nay, stay stay! Do not come closer just yet. I am... I fear a little trapped, and I do not wish you similarly entrapped - have you seen the Lady Eowyn? She would be best suited to er... free me.

Are you trapped, sister? [ AMUSED FOREVER at this point (because otherwise he'll just get grumpier and wind up needing a drink because he feels like he's channelling Caranthir) ]
Oh, no brother, I am merely standing here for my own amusement.
[ Being stuck in one place is great fun, don't you know? ]
[ Being stuck in one place is great fun, don't you know? ]
Ahhh, my mistake, I had thought to offer to aid you, but if you are content~
[ She laughs a little and shakes her head. ]
Oh, just help me get out from underneath this miserable plant, will you?

[ He laughs softly back at her and steps closer, brushing across her cheek fondly ]
There, did that satisfy yon plant?
