❦ One - [video]

[ After much hesitation on his part to even look at the odd device given to him by his captors, the proud marchwarden allows his curiosity to get the better of him. He tinkers with this odd stone for a moment or two before his confused image suddenly appears upon screen. Looking quite unsure and almost fearful of this object, Haldir speaks in a low hushed tone. ]

Mani naa ta? [ He murmured to himself, not entirely sure if this weird stone was active or not.] I've seen anything like it before...

Is this some sort of sorcery?

[ Still studying this odd thing with curious gaze, Haldir accidentally sets the communicator upside down as he speaks into it. ]

Hello? Does this ridiculous thing truly work?

[ A frustrated sigh escaped him as he rests his chin in his hands. ]

I see no point in these devices. Are we meant to use them for our amusement? If so, I am not easily amused.

Once, a half century ago.

Wow... I'm a little pissed off now...

...Have I said something to offend you?

[ Goodness, Majima. You're such a weird human. ]

Not really.

Anyway, half a century's long enough to be dry.

Oh, is it? Perhaps to a mortal it would seem rather long, however my kind are eternal.

So, ya never gonna die?

Then why worry about drinkin'?

[ An indignant huff is heard. It seems that Haldir doesn't really like to be questioned like this. ]

Why are you so curious to know? Perhaps I simply dislike the taste of ale and mead alike.

'Cause what else is there to do here?

Anyway, that's a kid's answer. Ya just need to keep tryin' til you find one ya like.

Quite persistent, aren't you?

[ There's a hint of humor in his tone as he says that. ]

If I ever find a brew I can stand, then you'll be the first to know.

I'll hold you to that, blondie.

Blondie, now? Honestly, is it so difficult for you to simply call me by my name?

I called ya by yer name earlier.

...True enough but why do you insist on using these absurd names for me now?

Why?

'Cause it's fun. That hard to grasp?

Hmph. Fun for you.

However, if you insist in doing this; I'll simply have to make up name for you in turn.

Are you creative enough to figure one out that I haven't heard yet?

Perhaps, that is if I use my native tongue to describe your less than desirable attributes.

Less than desirable? There's nothin' about me that's less than desirable!

How can you be so certain of that, hm?

Because I like myself. So, there's nothin' about myself that's less than desirable!

A respectable answer if anything.

[ While the humor in his tone is quite evident, there's also some respect laced with his words. ]

'Course, it is.

Yet, it's a rather egotistical answer at best.

I don't see anythin' egotistical about likin' yerself. Only egotistical if you get yer engine revving thinkin' about "likin' yerself." Then it's gone too far.

I suppose we could agree on this even if you share a strange fondness for the most bizarre metaphors I've ever heard.
