(Someone is finally peeking out of his cabin, looking like he has been through hell. Greetings, world!)

What food do you recommend after feeling ill? (He is the color of snow except for his fiery red hair and his one blue eye. The grey eye, filled with shadow, only makes him look worse.)

Father? Mother? Brothers? Is all well? I am sorry for my absence.

Finno, what of you? You will not escape my concern, cousin.

(This is what you get when you are tortured extensively by Morgoth. There are times Maedhros's strength simply fails him and he can't find the energy to leave his bed.)

[ One little brother comes knocking a little after this, carrying harp and carrying some of the items he's seen recommended. ]

Nelyo?

(Maglor is dragged into the cabin immediately, the door shutting firmly behind him. Maedhros rests their heads together.)

Hello, brother.

[seawanderer]

[ Maglor leans against his brother for a moment before pulling away to set his bounty down before tugging his brother over to sit. ]

I brought entertainment, food, and me. I will make you rest if I have to.

[ Not an idle threat! ]

[castintoflames]

(He sits down heavily - as if some invisible weight is tugging at him. But having Maglor with him earns a small smile.)

How will you go about making me? I'm large and I'm stubborn.

[seawanderer]

[ He tucks himself in close against his brother's side, harp reclaimed but resting silent on his lap. ]

But helpless against my music, brother. [ Pride? Oh yes. ]

[castintoflames]

(Maedhros kisses the top of his little brother's head, charmed. Maglor really doesn't have to try hard to get what he wants from him.)

What defense do I have against such a powerful gift?

(He plucks a harp string.)

My music would raise the dead from their slumber.

[seawanderer]

[ Neither does Maedhros. Maglor hums softly, finding a smile for his big brother. ]

None.

[ He snorts at the comment and nudges an elbow gently into his brother's side. ]

Or put the semi-living to sleep!

[castintoflames]

(He wraps an arm around him, ignoring the nudge entirely. It will take more than that, little brother!)

From boredom. Not because I relaxed them.

[seawanderer]

[ Oh fine, he snuggles right back against his brother. As if he wants to push his family away! ]

Your songs never bore me!

[castintoflames]

(Much better. Be cute and snuggly, baby brother. That makes him happy.)

You're my sweet biased brother. I've been singing to you since you were very small.
