@ethan-leonard LotR is my favorite movie series ngl. And one of my favorite book series! Have you read the books yet? They’re kind of long and slow, but I love them
And I didn’t know that about his name, but that’s really cool! It’s not too obvious, but certainly very meaningful (also it just sounds like a good evil emperor name)
Kit: The warrior turns and stares at me, and part of me wants to cringe and melt away. Part of me. The other part wants to stare right back at him until it gets awkward – I’m really good at that, so of course that’s the option I’m choosing
I stare right back at him, letting a tiny smirk play at the corner of my lip.
“And who might you be, young man,” his voice is deep and icy cold, practically frosted over with seething hatred. I pause.
“Me?” I smooth out my coat and grin innocently. “I’m Kit, of course. You just walked right into me, you know that?”
I’m not really sure what he’s going to say to that.
I think I’m going to assume that he’s the type people try to ignore if they can. I bet no one’s ever asked his name before.
What an utterly miserable existence.
If that’s the case…then I’d feel really sorry for him, if I’m going to be honest. Or, maybe he likes being alone – who knows.
So if, say, just assume I were to ask…either he’ll loosen up a little, maybe a little shocked at my friendliness, or he’ll become completely and utterly annoyed – and in that case, his reaction, might be kind of funny so…
I stare him in the eye (…helmet slits?) and twist my lips in a sugary grin.
“And what might yours be, young man – I’m sorry, sir?”
Deliberate, of course – let’s see how he likes being called young man.
