Boromir, who would have liked to speak with the interesting female elf, knew he needed to get ready for the council meeting. Still smiling, he grabbed his bags and went to where he'd been instructed. Maybe I'll get a chance to talk to her later...he thought, sincerely hoping that he would.

"Hey! You!" Martini picked up her skirts and ran after the old man. She halted in front of him, looking strangely fresh in spite of her mad dash. The perks of being an Elf. "Listen, you're a wise guy around here right? Have you explained this whole morphing thing yet?"
Gandalf slowly turned around and raised a surprised eyebrow at Martini. "...Morphing?" he murmured. He spoke up a bit more this time. "Patience, young lady. You and your friends just come with me. I will make my best attempt at explaining it, but I will not make any guarantees." he explained while leading the group to a small meeting chamber in Rivendell, and opened the door to it. The old wizard shifted his weight from his staff to the door as he held it, and motioned for everyone to go inside.
Gary gently but firmly squeezed Madeline's hand and gave a quick smile down at her. Cute kid. he thought to himself. He was no expert with children, but he liked them enough. Madeline seemed to be at that age where children became easier to look after anyway; right at that age where they stopped needing everything to be done for them, and could start helping out with the work.

"So are we going to see Wilhiam now?" she asked, playing with the hem of her blouse. "It is rather chilly here, where are we?" she asked looking up at Gary, innocently, her blue eyes still watery from the recent waterworks.
Scott and Crystal followed Gandalf into the room he indicated. They both wanted to find out why and how they had "morphed," but neither was sure they wanted to change back to normal, or "normal" as defined in their own world. Crystal wanted to stay the way she was because this was the only time she could remember since elementary school that she had fit in. Scott wanted to stay a Ranger because he liked having a real sword, one that Mom couldn't make him keep mounted on the wall.

Aidan followed Gandalf into the room, but she wasn't sure if she wanted to change back. She liked being a human well enough...but she really liked being an elf. Oh well. Hearing what Gandalf has to say will be worthwhile anyway.

((*cough* Hey guys? Martini the green-haired freak is now an attractive subdued-looking Elf! Oh and for Gandalf... she's an Elf with bizarre looking piercings in her face ))
Martini scowled but kept her mouth shut as she followed Gandalf. As long as he wasn't a babbling dotard, she would sit through anything to find a way to change back and return home.
((Hey, where'd Thor go?))

"A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort."
Madeline started to softly hum a song that some natives had taught her in one of the previous missionary trips she had been on with her parents. She seemed content, forgetting that she had no clue where she was in this mess of a world. All she knew was she had someone strong to protect her and she was beginning to feel safe with these new people, they seemed as lost as she was, but they also seemed to know where they were going. "Do you have any brothers?" she looked up at Gary as they walked. "Where are we going?" she continued to hum, asking every question that came to her mind. She was very naive for a 12 year old, having lived such a sheltered life without TV and modern necessaties.

Thor, who had been talking with an elfwoman and completely lost track of time, looked up to find the others gone. Oh, darn, he thought, and bit his lip. "Do you know where to find Gandalf? Old guy, long beard, wizard...?" he asked a tiny fellow with a white beard. "Ah, Gandalf, yes of course. I think I saw him a couple of minutes ago, along with a funny group of people. Right around the corner. I am Bilbo Baggins, by the way!" The little man beamed and reached out his hand. Thor looked at him with a sceptical look before shaking it. "Thor Meling," he said hesitantly. There was something about the name Baggins that tickled his mind. "Really? Curious..." Bilbo measured him carefully, before adding: "And you are from Mirkwood, yes?" Thor shook his head. "I'm from... Mirkwood, absolutely. Mirkwood, that's it." He held his breath. Who'd know how the little fellow would react if he told him there was a country named Norway in a different world? "You shouldn't be shaking your head when you really mean yes, my boy. But I really should get going, I have a book to write. Bye bye, now." Thor stared after him, slightly dumbfounded. Collecting himself, he walked toward the place where Bilbo had explained Gandalf would be.
((If I shouldn't meet Bilbo, then let me know and I'll edit.))
