Legolas pretty quickly gets in the habit of venting about his travelling companions in Elvish, so long as Gandalf & Aragorn aren’t in earshot they’ll never know right?
Then about a week into their journey like
Legolas: *in Elvish, for approximately the 20th time* ugh fucking hobbits, so annoying
Frodo: *also in Elvish, deadpan* yeah we’re the worst
Legolas:
thîr vain lín darn thûl nín. guren min gaim lín, a le uivelin. nínion ned i vened lîn, ach no allen i ngelu e-belain. harthon ad-govatham adh meleth. novaer nîn muin mellon.
your beautiful face took my breath away. my heart is in your hands, and i will always love you. i cry upon your leaving, but may the blessings of the valar be with you. i hope we will meet again with love. farewell my dear friend.
