Bookmarker's Notes
Although Mary was not a girl much given to imagine things, for a moment she imagined what it might have been like if Mrs Bathurst had found ten-year-old Mary Lennox, sullen and small with her parents only just dead, dull and unloved. Mary imagined being told then that she was special and powerful and could kill demons. Mary stopped imagining this as quickly as she could.

Summary
"Why're you still here, bro," Latula repeats patiently. Kankri glances up accidentally -- midriff, oh dear -- and glances away, fast.
Sitting in the surf is a man with too many visible ribs and shoulders too wide for his frame, strings-and-cables musculature in stark relief through the lack of even the smallest coating of insulating flesh. He looks starving and steel-strong both and there are little chalk-white nicks of scars everywhere on him. Foam runs up to his waist; Kankri stares, thinking stupidly, he is naked. Did he decide in a fit of whimsical, ah, otherness, to take off that last bit of -- but no, there is the edge of his waistband, and Kankri turns his gaze down to the sand between his own knees, ears burning with shame at his own salacious, depraved disappointment.
They want me gone, he thinks, and he knows why. This is a perfect place, a perfect moment; he's intruding.

Incredibly awkward and yet kind of adorable at the same time.

Summary
“I hardly believed it,” said Maedhros. “What are you doing here?”
"I bring a message from my father."
Maedhros blinked. "Really?"
Fingon grinned. "I believe his exact words were: you're visiting who, well if you must you must, say something suitable, something something friendship something something kinsmen, tell him good job keeping my brother's sons out of trouble, I'd rather wrestle another ice bear myself – but don't say it like that!"
_Fingon goes to visit Maedhros, accidentally arrives during a Fëanorion family reunion, and quickly regrets many (but not all) of his life choices.

I am in elf hell. Also I'm pretty sure I've been to this family reunion.

Bookmarker's Notes
After yelling quite emotionally about how much they love each other—and as we have previously agreed, I will not be crass in my speculation about how the Noldor rearrange their furniture—it seems that my lord began to vigorously push Maedhros’s garderobe from one end of the room to the other, which has made him less murderous in the past.
