After waving her hand in Menel's silly grinning face for some hours, Alice finally walked off.
She had had her fill at the food table, so she was heading in the opposite direction when the BW awoke.
Immediately, the room grew colder and there was a darkness wherever he stood or walked. Hurriedly, she searched in her pockets for her gift - hankerchief, drum key, keys, other keys, spare change, lint...ah! A small box finally found, favorably fondled for a few moments 'fore being forked over to the intended recipient.
Inside was a small beaded pin. It would have taken her months to make in Real Life, however online time is relative and it had taken her a few sec...okay, she put a lot of thought into it. It depicted a rather dark looking gravemound, which was almost certain to contain all sorts of mold, moisture, stalactites, and treasure left with the body of some dead monarch to satisfy their souls in the afterlife. The B-W sniffed sentimentally, and placed it in a nearby tresurebox.
"Very nice," he said before being called off.
Alice snuck upon the newcomer Gil-Galad. "Hey Mr. Galad," she said. "I've got to know...do you type with boxing gloves on?" Before he could pop her glasses off with his One Cool Power, she sprinted off laughing.
