*Amras runs after his twin to join the others* Thank Eru you are all okay. I was worried out of my mind!Amrod: Vanilla’s good. It can match the white streaks in Nelyo’s hair. I’ll go select the cake pan and—
*As he turns around, he sees the newly arrived group down by the trees and excitedly takes off running through the field to them.* NELYOOOOO!!!!!!!
*He crashes into Maitimo at full speed, squeezing him tight in a hug and not letting go.* I’m so glad you’re safe, big brother.
*Maglor pulls out his pocket glitter that he keeps for emergencies, and starts helping Fingon.*I will most definitely help you! But first, I have my own gift for our friend Thauron here.
*Pulls out his hot glue gun and bags of extra jingly pom-poms.* I’ve been looking forward to this moment for quite some time.
*As he starts gleefully gluing them on Mairon, he calls over to Tyelko.* How you doing over there, cuz?
*They, along with Curvo and Tanca, slowly make their way towards the cooking group, where Aranya figures she'll make some ginger tea for anyone who wants it.*
Finwe: *puts an arm around him* Feanor!...are you okay? Here, sit down for a minute...*gently helps him onto seat nearby*
*If it were literally anybody else, Fëanor would have resisted, but he gratefully accepts the opportunity to sit down.*
*Amrod hears this and gasps.* Nelyo, you got a concussion?! Can I see? How do you feel?? What was it like???*Aranya overhears this and yells, exasperated, in Finwë's direction:* THEY'RE LITERALLY CONCUSSED. 🙄
Maitimo: No, you can't see it. Aranya says it happens inside the head. And it feels... like Atar is pounding on your head with a hammer.*Amrod hears this and gasps.* Nelyo, you got a concussion?! Can I see? How do you feel?? What was it like???
*Amrod stares aghast in concern, looking back and forth from Nelyo to Fëanor.* Atar! How could you?! We like Nelyo’s brain!
*Daylight shines through the walls of their bubbles, and they slow down, having finally reached the above-ground portion of the stream. The tops of their bubbles retract, allowing them to stand up and step out onto the stream bank.*
*Laurinalótë shakes her leaves in a dance to fling off water everywhere, especially upon her bearers.*They shakily step out upon landing.*
Cooking... My metabolism is not thrilled at that word. I just wonder what happened. *The reddish hue of her golden petals has dissipated at last.* Though I will say there are worse things than hot sauce pancakes.They, along with Curvo and Tanca, slowly make their way towards the cooking group
*Pays attention to the conversation going on around her.* Talking Elf, a concussion is like a bruise on the brain. Just as with a typical contusion, it takes time to heal. There are different levels of concussions regarding their severity, though your brother's seems mild, for he isn't experiencing blurred vision or lightheaded dizziness. It will heal. As Elves, the healing process is quicker than that of the Edain. Rest is an important part of the recovery, whichever being you are. *Sends soothing calm into Maitimo with more intention and begins gently massaging his head with her leaves.*Talking Flower, is Nelyo going to be okay?
(OOC: One of you elves still in Denny's, please tell the Vanyarin about this wedding so we can respond appropriately! We're just going to get the info we need out of the Melk-man about the location of the Balrog master-whip, then we can shelve him for a while [unless you want us to shelve him now, in which case we're going to need bring him to the wedding under guard so he doesn't escape 😁] )(So guys, as soon as we could wrap up the current stuff, that would be great. My job will get very busy in late August or so, and I'm thinking we should do the wedding before then. Also, this will be my only post today because work is busy.)
M: Umm . . . *He was quite shocked to realize there was a Balrog on their side, and by her politeness. He wasn't complaining though.*
M: Sure, though I didn't see where he went. I'm Maglor, by the way.
*Fingon chuckles at their comments.* While the first is correct in Quenya, I will accept the second as well. I am a Hair and Air Commander!
I will most definitely help you! But first, I have my own gift for our friend Thauron here.

*Amrod listens with a wide-eyed expression of curiosity at her words.* Fascinating! So what I’m hearing is, Nelyo needs a massage.*Pays attention to the conversation going on around her.* Talking Elf, a concussion is like a bruise on the brain.

*Fingon overhears her and glances up to where she’s sitting on the window sill, grinning while his hands continue gluing.* Glad you approve, Laurinalótë!*Meanwhile, from the window vantage point, Laurinalótë watches the fascinating antics of Fingon, Maglor, Celeraccoon, the Vanyar royalty, and the big bads.* As a Mettarë Elf of my lord Aulë, Mr. Sour Gothmore should know about getting decorated... As well as being on probation, of course. You know, I am pleased to see such decisive... victory. Yes, victory. Is. Sweet. Unlike those anchovies and chips.
Fingon: My Lady, long has it been since I have needed to worry about such things. I’m not an Elfling anymore. As High Prince of the Noldor, I have lands to guard, people to protect, and mischief to get into with my cousins and sister. The last thing I have to be concerned about is using paper to keep Angband’s floors clean.Ilwen picks up fallen pom-poms and glue from the floor.
Ilwen: Now, Mr. Fingon, didn't you mother ever tell you to spread newspaper before doing a craft project? Ingwë, dearest, what's taking you so long fetching him that paper?
Ingwë: *squinting through reading-glasses* What's a four-letter word for nyarnamaitar-quantemmalion?
Maglor: Uh . . . sure yeah I can do that. Not entirely sure we're on the best terms either, but it's worth a shot.While Fingon glues and decorates an increasingly festive and decreasingly cheery Sauron, the others ransack the place for Morgoth.
Handmaiden Balrog: *shaking Maglor's hand* Enchanted. Literally.
*bangs oven doors open and shut. Searches the chest freezer. Everything's empty.*
Handmaiden Balrog: Hmm. I wonder if we could speed this up.
*finds a heavy cast-iron frying pan on the stovetop and hands it to Maglor*
Handmaiden Balrog: Technically, I'm a Corrupted Being. It has some perks, like the "Corrupted Being Under 5000" railcard, entitling me to discounted travel on weekends outside peak season. Unfortunately, it prevents the Valar from hearing my prayers. Would you, kind sir, be good enough to call on Aulë to imbue this frying pan with Extreme Magnetism? You would have my Corrupted and, er, undying thanks.
M: It's not like we're worried about getting glitter on the floor--that would be to our advantage even!Fingon: My Lady, long has it been since I have needed to worry about such things. I’m not an Elfling anymore. As High Prince of the Noldor, I have lands to guard, people to protect, and mischief to get into with my cousins and sister. The last thing I have to be concerned about is using paper to keep Angband’s floors clean.
Besides, this is far from the first time I’ve done this to Thauron. Just look at the growing grimace on his face— he loves it!
Handmaiden Balrog: Thank you, Maglor. It seems your heart is right with the Powers.Maglor: Uh . . . sure yeah I can do that. Not entirely sure we're on the best terms either, but it's worth a shot.
*He focuses on the frying pan, sending a little message to Aulë in his heart, hoping that would work. After a few moments, a powerful tug on the sword in his hand is a promising answer*
M: What are we using this for?
*Yavanna and Aulë have finished setting up the fortress for the wedding, waiting for everyone to return from Denny's. All of a sudden, Aulë senses his aid is required. Determining what is needed, he sends approval back to Maglor. Then he glances over at the lone group of Laurinalótë in her vase.*
(OOC:Yavanna: This time not you would have to...
Maglor: Sooooooo are we leaving? *He seemed rather confused. How was a glove meant to fix everything? Why did it have candy on it--not that this was surprising for Tyelko, just for the current situation."*seeing the rescued settle, Siren Girl leaves them and returns to the Denny's*
I think it's time, Celeraccoon!
*Celeraccoon looks up from where he was bickering with Thuringwethil about the nature of rabies.
Mairon is confused, and the only thing he wants is to find a way out of the place without getting hurt too much.
Celeraccoon nods and hops and runs back towards Siren Girl*
Do you have the glove?
*Siren girl nods and hands Celeraccoon a teeny tiny glove that fits him. On the glove rest five jewel like candies. Celeraccoon eyes them all hungrily but one warning pinch from Siren Girl is enough to dissuade him. He glances around the room and beacons Maglor, Finno and the rest of the good guys over*
Come here! I'mma fix everything.
*He takes in a breath before raising his gloved paw before pausing*
Ah... there's a problem. I don't have thumbs. I can't snap.
*The pair of superheroes stare at each other, dumbstruck*
M: That was brilliant Miss Balrog! What is our plan now that we've found him? We ought to be returning soon, Nelyo will never forgive me if I miss the wedding.Handmaiden Balrog: Thank you, Maglor. It seems your heart is right with the Powers.
The frying pan trembles in Handmaiden Balrog's hand. The sword lurches out of Maglor's sheath. Knives, spoons, pots and other kitchen bric-a-brac flurry through the air.
Handmaiden Balrog unsticks them one by one and fixes them point-first into the wall. WIth Maglor's help (the pull is very strong), she wafts it around the counters and ovens like a metal detector.
As she passes the chest freezer, it begins to rattle. The freezer rocks, sways and tips over. It flies open and, in a hail of frozen peas, the Dark Lord of Angband shoots head-first onto the frying pan, where, with a BONG, the Iron Crown quivers, caught. The Dark Lord's angle of suspension looks notably uncomfortable.
Handmaiden Balrog: Do you think we should have greased it first?
