[I'm still here so... I guess I'll reply^^""]

Rhavaniel sat at the desk, perched so close to the edge, it seemed impossible that she ddn't fall off. In front of her stood a small bottle of ink, in her hand handsome eagle-feather quill.
Her father sat across from her frowning, and looking for an excuse to niggle at her, but the lists she drew up seemed flawless, the detailed plans for extra protection of the palace simple but efficiant.
Andor spent the rest of the hour rearanging the parchment with annoying precision.
His daughter, dressed in a simple shirt and tights/leggins, shot him an annoyed glare, and finished the last page in a scrawl of sindarin.
"Finished."
"Took you long enough..." her father growled, scanning through the papers aggresively, before stashing them under his arm, and standing.
His daughter rose with him, reaching his hight easily.
"I'm late." her voice cut through the heavy air, slicing through the tention like a hot knife through butter.
"That's not my problem. What for?"
"My archers..."
"Your not going out like that!" he warned, eyes hardning again, jaw setting.
"I'm not. Father ."
"Dont call me that!"
"Loving care...."
Andor stormed out of the room, slamming it loudly in his wake.
Rhavaniel pulled on a light tunic, snatched up her bow, and hurried swifly out of the room.

(Oops..made you respond to a nonexistant post..*had to add some other stuff*)

An air of expectation hung around the Palace of Mirkwood, and even though everything outside was quiet, almost peaceful, inside, it was if an anthill had been kicked. Advisors rushed here and there, decorators were feverishly adding the last-minute decorations to the main hall, and the kitchen..well..let's just say that the cooks were up to their necks in food.

Noting all this with an almost absent expression, Aradan grimaced, hearing a platter clatter to the floor. Sounds like one of the cooks was careless.. he thought amusedly, then quickly stepped aside as two of his father's advisors rushed past.

Every year we have to deal with this.. he then thought, supressing the urge to groan. Every year, it was the same. Endless greetings, a stuffy meal, then watching all the couples dance for hours on end..it was all so boring, especially to Aradan and his siblings.

Speaking of whom..where are they? the thought entered his mind, and Aradan then went off to find his siblings, checking the first place he thought of, the archery range..

Sure enough, when he got out there, he heard the playful banter, and twice heard the thump of an arrow hitting a target. Walking towards the sounds, he was rewarded as an arrow whizzed perilously close to his left ear. Stifling the exclamation that had almost burst out of him, he adopted an expression of mock annoyance. "Legolas, Elwen, you two should be inside, getting ready!"

"And why aren't you following your own advice?" came the cheeky response from Elwen, accompanied with Legolas' chuckle of amusement.

"Because I've been looking for you two." he responded severely. "Now, go on, you know we've only got a couple hours left before our guests start to arrive." he added, and nearly smiled at the twin grimaces of his siblings.

"Oh, goody.." Elwen murmured, setting her bow down where she could find it later, before walking past Aradan. Legolas also set his bow down, and, after removing the arrows from the target and returning them to his quiver, he also walked past Aradan, who resisted a smile of amusement, before heading inside himself, to get ready.
