[Celebrían can't bring herself to hesitate. At least not for long. It's been so many years, so very many years, since she saw her daughter last. And there had been tears then. Just as there are now, her eyes filling with tears she can't let herself shed now.]

I am here, pinig.

[She reaches, lightly caressing Arwen's cheek before pulling her into her arms and hugs her tightly.]

[stillhope]

[She loses the battle with holding back her own tears at the touch. She doesn't fight it any longer when she's pulled in for a hug. She gives it her all, pouring her emotions into -- everything she's been holding onto since her mother's departure.]

I have missed you so much.

[silvergift]

As I have missed you.

[She practically clings to her daughter, savoring the moment. Between them, just for a little while, the war between the Seelie and Unseelie doesn't have to exist. It's just mother and daughter.] There has never been a day that has gone by that I have not missed you, that I have not wondered if there was some way we could have found for me to stay.

[stillhope]

[She doesn't have the heart to tell her that this very well may be the last time they'll ever see each other. Once one of them departs from this land, that shall be the end. She doesn't have the strength to share the price of her choice.] Do not let your thoughts linger on such sad thoughts. You are here now. We have another chance.

[silvergift]

[And, at the moment, Celebrían may not be able to handle that kind of news. Seeing her daughter is all she needs right now. Even if it does mean she'll have to deal with the courts now too. And whatever this world and the war might send her way.]

I will try not to, my dear.

[stillhope]

There is so much I have to share with you, Nana.

[Both happy and sad, entangled like an intricate knot. It takes all the control she still has to not let the words start tumbling from her lips, unsure of how much time they'll truly have together.]

[silvergift]

[She holds her close still, running a hand through Arwen's hair. Just the same way she had when Arwen had been younger. For a little while it can be just the two of them.]

We have time for that. For now, let us try to enjoy the day. After all, it is rare that your grandmother and I venture back to Caer Glaem.
