It has been, yes. [Once upon a time, it was an almost idyllic paradise; tall green trees rustling quietly in the wind that made its way through the forest, the quiet chirping of birds and insects, snippets of harp music floating in from the royal halls. Nowadays there is not much of that left.]

Yes, it does feel that way, doesn't it. [She stifles a yawn, gritting her teeth and squeezing her eyes shut for a moment.] Let us hope it does not come to that.

I should not think so. [He shifts again, stretching his limbs before resting his hands over his stomach, fingers twined.] I believe the world shall be safe at least for tonight.

[He spares a glance at her, smiling tiredly.] Sleep well, Tauriel... [He sighs and repeats, a little more softly.] Tauriel.

And you, Kíli.

[Abruptly, she remembers his ramblings of before when she first found him, lying pale and injured on the kitchen table. Do you think she could have loved me? rings in her ears, and she can feel her cheeks flushing.

Tentatively, she shifts a little closer and curls her fingers in the fabric of his sleeve, just gently holding on.] And you.
