Haradhel thought about it as she headed toward the kitchen, and she motioned for Lore to follow her. "I can't say for certain, but I think she would have slept until nightfall tomorrow, which would have turned her sleeping habits completely backwards. Unless she had stayed up until noon, as I'm planning to, in which case I hope to wake up tomorrow morning. For as long as you use the elven sleep, that's how long you sleep it off. But since she stayed awake of her own volition, and went to bed this morning, she should be up around noon and then ready for bed again tonight at the regular time."
She smiled at Lore over her shoulder as she got breakfast ready for everyone. "It might be a good time for you to visit Celebor's family this afternoon," she murmured, "since here, half of us will be asleep."

Lore thought about it, it was a good point and it would be a good time to see everyone. It had been a very long while since they had seen Celebor and any of his family (if you didn't count last night).
"That sounds like an excellent idea," Lore agreed, "It's been a long while anyways... a very long while."

Haradhel smiled and took a tray from below the counter. "And I'm sure they would all like that very much, I know Niyana sometimes wishes for something from her past. She's happy here, but sometimes a little overwhelmed, I think ... even after all this time."
Then again, she was the only human in a land full of elves, in a place where they killed humans for a living.

"I can imagine," Lore murmured, "This place is very different from home and my understanding is she had spent most of her life with just Celebor, and then later when they had a family just them."
So there wasn't that much itneraction there to begin with, he could understand how after all this time it could be overwhelming. He didn't even had the part where they actually lived in a house.

"That makes sense," Haradhel nodded. "Every summer, they take off for nearly the whole season up the mountain - no one knows why or what they do up there, but since the children were old enough to take care of themselves, they've been going up there."
She loaded the tray and picked it up. "Come on, we've got some little ones to feed," she grinned.

Now that was news to Lore, he had no idea the two did that, though he could see why.
"Do you need any help with the tray?" Lore inquired offering to take some of the burden.
There was quite a number of people waiting in the dining room and it seemed like a lot.

Haradhel shook her head. "I'm fine," she smiled. "It's not bad. The bowls for Hana and Garrick are small, and Hope and Faith don't need anything, they're too young - then there's just you, Kara and Toshiro. Not bad at all."
Even with the wooden utensils, it wasn't a heavy tray.
"Besides, you'll your hands full with the twins, I'm sure," she smiled.

Lore chuckled at that this was true, as he knew how meal times went. Nodding he followed Haradhel back out of the kitchen to see the twins where he left them for the most part.
Hana had grown bored and had taken to try and play with her brother's hair. How much success she had in that was questionable.

Garrick was surprisingly patient when it came to Hana playing with his hair, and though he himself had no interest in hair it seemed that the only time he would sit still was when Hana was playing with his hair. Right now he was still sitting on his knees, tracing patterns in the wood of the table with his index fingers and humming to himself.
"An' Hawafel!" he beamed as Haradhel entered the room with the tray of food. "B'effas! Wook, wook Hana! B'effas!"
Haradhel laughed. "Yes, yes, here it comes." She headed over to the table and set the tray down, then began to set out the bowls.

"Brekky!" Hana reached out hair forgotten.
She would have sat on her butt except she realized quite quickly that she wouldn't be able to see this way so sat on her knees like her brother.
"Nummy...."
Lore chuckled at that as he sat between the two so he could help them both with ease, not to separate them, otherwise he would be him on one side and Elnara on the other, but Elnara was sleeping at the moment.

The moment the food was in front of him, Garrick reached out and pulled his bowl closer, then grabbed his spoon and dug in. The food had been sitting a while already, so it wasn't hot - which was a good thing, because he didn't bother blowing on it before he shoved a huge spoonful in his mouth. Or rather, most of it went into his mouth, while some of it ended up on his cheek.
Haradhel set out the other bowls as well. "Kara, Toshiro," she smiled. "If you want, I can set out a blanket for the girls on the floor..."

"I would like that thank you," Kara replied relieved at that.
Otherwise she wasn't sure what to do with them, often they had the twins sit in a high chair since there was no one to watch them and there were too many people eating at the table.
Toshiro nodded at this, he had been sitting at the table watching Haradhel set everything out. Obivously he hadn't been watching too closely because Hope was chewing on his spoon.

Hana was more calm in eating her food though not any less messy. She would scoop up a bit of her food and then proceed to lick it off her spoon, licking both the back and front clean before scooping up some more. While food ended up on Garrick's cheek they ended up on Hana's chin.
Lore looked between the two and decided it was best to use a cloth and tug it into the neck of their clothes.

As everyone finished off their breakfast, Elrohir came in from outside. "So, both parties are gone now," he nodded, "and I've sent others out to scout around the ranch just in case it was anticipated. Fireball has promised to keep an eye on the portal area and stop anyone who gets too close to it, and Ulani and Ulrich have been made aware of the situation and are watching over the valley. I guess that's about it ... so for the rest, it's back to normal."
Garrick grinned up at Elrohir and held up his now-empty bowl. "Wookit, Unca Ewwoheah! An' Hawafel ma' b'effas! Num! You ha' some?" He licked some of his breakfast off his nose, still grinning.

Toshiro looked up from his now finished breakfast, he nodded at this. It was good to know everything was now set for just in case. He wondered if he should visit Ulrich to see if he could carve Toshiro a new staff since he really out grew his.
Besides Miyu wouldn't be for a while, and she would probably be most likely to visit Aragost.
"That is good to know," Kara smiled setting her spoon down.
