They have quite a few beers over the next hours. The bar's getting emptier and emptier as the night grows darker.
Thorin and Fehlina are talking about travelling, and fighting.
Fehlina doesn't strike Thorin as a stuck up, spoiled elf, considering she's venturing on her own on, far away from the safe comfort of her realm.
"How long are you gonna be away for?" Thorin asks.
"I'm not sure... Till I've had my fill of adventures and excitement I guess," Fehlina answers.
"And what are adventures and excitement in your opinion?" Thorin asks while carefully placing his hand closer to hers.
She looks at him. She doesn't know if it's the brew or her heart talking, but she's become very attracted to this dwarf. He's truly majestic, and very handsome. He looks so rugged and wise with his bautiful beard and the grey streaks in his hair.
"Seeing new places, pushing myself to the maximum limit of strength and danger, making new friends, living for the moment," she smiles as she carfully lets her index finger caress Thorin's hand.
"Am I a friend?" Thorin turns his hand, his big palm facing up, braiding their fingers together. Fehlina swallows hard as she feels her whole body tingle, her cheeks flushing to a rogue red, feeling impish.
"I hope so," she says and gives him a sweet smile.
