Twylight
"Blanco and Posco there are not related to me in any way at all. Blanco met up with me one day and was so very kind and introduced himself to me at invited me to his house for tea. I met Posco later. Marcho is a relative of theirs who I did not meet until just a few days ago. Blanco and Posco left to visit their aunt -isn't that so kind of them? They always were kind- and Marcho went with them, and Blanco decided to take me along. It was most gracious of him to invite me, and his aunt is so very kind. When she corrects one when one does something wrong she does it in a very good-natured manner. Blanco and Posco are so very patient about her corrections as well," Bingo said. He continued to tell Twylight about how kind everyone was. She listened raptly as he told her about Marcho's, Blanco's, and Posco's stronger personality points. However, he omitted not a word about anyone's faults.
When Bingo glanced over toward the table of seven, Twylight looked around the Inn also. She spotted an older looking hobbit sitting not too far away, staring into his cup, his ear cocked to one side. When the conversation stopped, he glanced over surreptitiously. Twylight caught his eye and started to smile warmly, but stopped at the look of -- of self-loathing. She started and looked away quickly.
"And so," Bingo continued, "in conclusion, for I am sure I have rambled on long enough, Blanco, Posco, and Marcho are the best friends I have ever had in my life and the kindest hobbits I have ever met. I know they'll delight you when you meet them and you will see why I call them kind. You are very kind yourself, Miss Twylight, to invite me to dine with you." Twylight blushed slightly, but she didn't think that Bingo noticed.
Would you please introduce me to your companions? I would love to meet them after all of the wonderful things you said about them! Perhaps we could all dine together?
