THE WATER FIGHT MEME

It's summer. It's fairy world. It's hot. No matter what world you're from, what court you're from, you need to cool down. The King and Queen of both courts have agreed to a truce and members of both courts, no matter where they previously were, will find themselves in a clearing in the middle of an unknown forest. There is a dais up that is warded that both sets of monarchs sit upon and a herald is brought forth to announce the terms:

• Both courts will have ample supplies of both water balloons and water pistols.
• There will be 'stations' where one can refill their supplies.
• As tech does not work here, supplies will have to be refilled magically.
• Reach a station and say aquius to refill your water guns and aquius arcus to get a refurbished supply of water balloons.
• There is no reward or punishment for participating or not participating other than the fun involved in a water fight.
• Participants are welcome to go after their opposing courts or members of their own courts.
• Teams can consist of any/all court members.
• The fight will last until dusk, when all parties will be allowed a short feast before being returned to their previous positions in the world.

That's it. Those are the rules. Make a top level comment and state whether you'd like to play one on one or in a team. Or both. Enjoy your day of rest, Drabwurld.

Cano is a lovely name. My name is Elincia.

[childofthemusic]

E-lin-cia [ he sounds it out slowly, the childish treble already fluting it as if to a song although it does not yet have the power of his adult voice ]

Is as pretty as you, Lady! [ Curious he points up at the fall of green hair, water balloons entirely forgotten ] How'd you get your hair like that? Like... like the green stones atto used in amme's necklace the other day!

[devotedqueen]

You are very kind, Cano.

[She touches her hair, amused how some things hadn't changed in Maglor's personality at all]

My hair was always this way. I inherited the colour from my father, you see.

[childofthemusic]

[ He beams up at her, watching her hair in fascination ]

Oh! Cano has atto's hair too! Amil's is red though - like fire! Nyelo has the same - atto said that he is pleased that at least one of us looks more like him. [ although in fairness apart from the hair, Maglor takes a lot more after Nerdanel than he does his father ]

Nyelo is my older brother [ he confides ] - he's sooooo tall! I wish he was here, but I haven't seen him.

[devotedqueen]

Your hair is certainly lovely though.

[She smiles, not touching his hair but appreciating its length and colour]

Hmm, perhaps we'll be able to find him soon?

[childofthemusic]

[ He beams up at her cheerfully ]

Thank you! Amil helped Cano braid it! [ not... that it even remotely resembles a braid any longer ]

I hope so! Nyelo is often busy these days - Atto is teaching him! But he always tries to find time to play with me.

[devotedqueen]

[Elincia smiles, listening carefully as she leads him away from the water balloon battle]

It seems like your family is very lovely.

the baby, incidentally, is celegorm =D

[childofthemusic]

They are! [ He nods enthusiastically and counts them off on his fingers ] There's atto and amil, and Nyelo! And amil is pregnant again! She told me he kicks very hard, but when baby hears me sing he calms down, so I try to sing for amil lots and lots.

Then there's Grandfather Finwe, and Uncle Nolo, whose father's half-brother! And Grandmother Indis, but atto gets grumpy when we call her that - my real Grandmother is Grandmother Miriel, but she's sleeping and won't ever wake up, atto says. And there's Granfather Mahtan, he's amil's atto!
