[everysecond]

Looking up, she saw that familiar face and grinned at the crowd before climbing up the building with all the grace of the Assassin she was. Once up there, she punched him in the shoulder.

"Come on, where's my hug? I know you fucking missed me."

She'd grown a lot in living here, far more open to contact than she'd been years ago.

[bythewaves]

"Ow!" He mock protests the punch, eyes laughing.

"And maybe I didn't miss the random punching and kicking!"

But he opens his arms to hug her anyway.

[everysecond]

"Random, my ass."

Moving over, she wrapped her arms around him and grinned up at him. Man, she was tiny again. And she'd grown up so well during her years here!

"I want my adult body again. I was hot stuff and I had better height!"

[bythewaves]

"Totally random"

He assures her with a straight face and looks down to ruffle her hair with a laugh.

"That is true! I could almost pick you up, like this!"

[everysecond]

"Ack!"

Quickly, she went to save her hair before laughing again.

"Pick me up and I'm kicking something important!"

[bythewaves]

He backs away with a laugh, both hands raised in surrender.

"Ai! Far be it from me to upset my sister so! I suppose I should be glad we are without our powers, eh?"

[everysecond]

"Afraid I'll turn you upside down with them?"

She laughed then waved her hand. "Come on. Let's see what's changed since I was last here."

[bythewaves]

"Or dangle me over a ledge!" Maglor shakes a teasing finger at her.

"And I have yet to forget the times you pinched honeycakes with them either!"

A nod and he falls into step with her.

"Where to first?"

[everysecond]

"I'd do it again too. Those things are fucking great."

She gave him a cheeky grin then shrugged before pointing off a random direction.

"How about that way?"

[bythewaves]

Maglor rolls his eyes at her fondly.

"Well I suppose I will have to make an attempt to fill that bottomless stomach of yours then, hm? Later."

He nods and then grins a little at her.

"Race you?"

[everysecond]

"I don't know. I'll probably kick your ass."

Of course, she said that then just took off running without a care for her own safety as she simply jumped off the roof to land on the other before continuing on. She'd always been talented at this but it seemed those skills had improved over the years!

[bythewaves]

"We shall see about that!"

Maglor laughs, a sharp bark as she takes off, and follows her. Only just back from Arda Marred, he is still a little uncertain in a mortal body again, which gives her the advantage. On the other hand, there he had been properly fed and cared for, able to hunt and fish. And he has not let any of his old skills lapse.

He follows her over the rooftops with that stupid casual elven grace - and if she's not careful, he'll start to close the gap.

[everysecond]

Reckless yet careful. Yep, that was somehow her. There weren't many who could be both at once but she managed it well enough as she ran across rooftops that were so familiar to her that one would think she was on the streets.

So familiar that at one point she launched herself through a window and used that as a shortcut to get to the next building, well aware that the leap was probably too great for her.

She could do this, okay.

[bythewaves]

"Riley!" Maglor yelps when she does, putting on a burst of speed in case he actually needs to catch her.

... he really hopes he doesn't need to catch her because he's pretty sure he's going to miss.

[everysecond]

All that was left behind was the sound of her laughter as she launched herself up to the next roof. She was totally fine. How she'd pulled that off was a mystery aside from...

Had that been a shiny thing at her wrist?

[bythewaves]

"Cheat!" He calls after her and shakes his head, amused. He won't catch her now, he knows. But no reason to let her get TOO far ahead! He follows her from above, instead.

[everysecond]

She laughed louder at him then got back up to his level and finally just literally jumped right off a roof, free falling and landing perfectly in a pile of what looked like clothes. Getting out, she brushed herself off then grinned up at him.

Cheeky little brat. Even now. And just as reckless.

[bythewaves]

Maglor follows her down a little slower but no less graceful.

"Well then little miss 'I hide tools to help me cheat on my person', what reward woulf you like to claim from me?" He teasesas he catches up.

[everysecond]

"I didn't cheat. There was no rule about not using whatever you have to win."

She grinned at him then crossed her arms. She'd kicked his ass and she was so pleased with herself.

[bythewaves]

He snorts at her amusedly but yields the point.

"As you say. But to the victor go the spoils! And so?"

[everysecond]

"Honey cakes."

Was anyone surprised? They shouldn't be.

[bythewaves]

"I should never have introduced you to those." Maglor mock laments.

"Well I will need to find a kitchen, eh? Perhaps one of the locals, or we can check of thre guesthouses are still standing."

[everysecond]

"You know they will totally let us use a kitchen. Now come on, let's explore!"

Fist in the air, she turned to star looking around the buildings, seeing what had changed. She even stopped to look in shops, amazed at the differences and how people had advanced in all this time. "Shit, look at this stuff."

[bythewaves]

"They certainly seem obliging." Maglor agrees and falls into step with her.

"Look here - they did not have this the last time, I think?"

He marvels softly at all the colour around them.

"And folks are much more cheerful."

[everysecond]

"Woah, I don't remember seeing that before."

Riley pressed her face to the window to look inside. Had this candy shop always been there? She sure didn't remember it before!

"Yeah, right? They're real people now."
