Wow! This has gotten deep fast! Good job, y'all.
In defense of the southern part of the U.S., young'uns is our brand of poetic speaking. Maybe ME elves would say something more ME eloquent, but I'd be just fine with Elrond saying, 'Get up here, young'un! We gota boat to catch!' (or something similar) . But maybe that's just my southern fried version.
On the genetic end, my mom has blue eyes and my dad dark brown. I have a hazel color, but depending on my future husband's genetics I could easily have blue eyed or brown eyed children. My brother has the same color as my dad's. So, I would think hair would go the same way. Arwen's children probably had different shades of hair color, but basically the same color family. But, in ME, regular genetics wouldn't apply, as has already been said. But for the sake of arguement, that's my take on it.
