'Temari scoffed. “Oh, no fuck this,” she laughed, uncrossing her arms. She put her palm beside the door, grabbed the handle, and ripped it open. She shook her head. “I’m not doing this. I’m criticised enough as it is without standing here listening to you insulting—”
“Shut the door.”
She scowled but didn’t move.
“Shut the door, Temari,” Shikamaru repeated. There was a sharp edge to his voice that hadn’t been there the first time. A sharp edge unlike anything she’d heard from him before. “You won’t really leave. You’ll just stand in the doorway again and let all the heat out. Shut it.”

(belated) Halloween costume party!
since orome is obviously the family vala (with aule coming in second) the group costume theme that year was orome. (they do a different vala each year)
yes celegorm does in fact have a horse, yes his horse does actually look somewhat like nahar, and yes he put a rubber horse mask on huan instead.
instead of doing orome + a friend, ambarussa are doing Tall Orome (they did rock paper scissors for who gets to be the head).
aredhel and galadriel show up as orome & vana, but halfway through the party galadriel pops into the bathroom and converts her costume to tulkas:
Bonus: Maglor forgot what the theme was and showed up dressed as a crab

read a gay orc romance trilogy (the orc prince by Lionel Hart) and find it funny and sweet how the orc guy turns down sex the first time bc they don't know each other well enough yet (arranged marriage), then just before the series climax (hah) the orc guy nuts in the MC and then immediately starts crying
just love when big scary guys subvert expectations and cry during sex bc they love their partner so much
