I swear... It's all the Hat's fault.

What is it? This!

Now...they'll never let me have my pen back...*sobs*

I'll have to buy a new one.

Just kidding :D Link is of questionable work-safeness.

((Pertinent details: Pointy-eared Elf-Lord, older than dirt. I'm playing it as though the two Glorfindels in Tolkienverse are one and the same, as the author himself said was the case. Upon being resurrected, Glorfindel was granted Mary Sue powers on par with the Maiar (aka Gandalf and Saruman and the other Istari). In other words, mad powah. For the sake of clarity I reckon this puts him below beings such as Mr. Wednesday and Amaterasu (and possibly Smaug and Ancalagon, in a physical fight), above the various angels/demons/kitsune/shinigami, and probably on par with, well, whoever falls between those groups.

Supernatural types may see him closer to his true form, "shining with an inner light... as if through a thin veil" and such; not blinding (unless you desire comedic effect), since only other Elves would see his true form, it just marks him as having "great presence in both the Seen and Unseen worlds".

To conclude this teal deer: Apped with permission. I'm also ESL, so apologies for any bizarre grammar that may slip through.))


Glorfindel was tall and straight; his hair was of shining gold, his face fair
and young and fearless and full of joy; his eyes were bright and keen, and his
voice like music; on his brow sat wisdom, and in his hand was strength.


Thus had the Elf-Lord once been described, and even now did it hold true. The Elder Children of Ilúvatar were not bound to the mortal plane as Men were, nor did the passage of time leave its mark upon them, save in learning and memory alone. What could accurately be called an otherworldly appearance was perhaps less so at Hogwarts, where the extraordinary had become nearly commonplace.

Beside Glorfindel stood his friend and companion through many journeys, the white Elf horse Asfaloth, his headstall and reins (there was no bit) studded with gems and adorned with small bells that produced a light tinkling whenever the horse turned his head, as he did presently to watch Glorfindel approaching the table bearing quill and parchment. The hood of the Elf's heavy riding cloak was already thrown back, and he bent closer to read what was written.

Simon was determined this should go well. He just wasn't sure how to ensure that it went well. There were all kinds of reasons why he wasn't thus equipped, having to do mainly with his own quirks of personality, but also with his upbringing and with the way things were done in the high social strata of Osiris. Thinking about these things led him nowhere of use, just a spiral of minor anxiety and low-grade nervousness.

He was more than a little tempted to call the whole thing off and suggest, instead, the usual few companionable rounds of "Where's an Egg?". He could show Billy the book he'd found in the library, and they could just be friends, like always, the stakes super-low.

In the end, though, he dressed (with more than his habitual care, choosing his very favorite vest) and showed up where they'd agreed to meet, in Hogsmeade, carrying a bookbag as though they were both still in school -- well, they were, in a way; it was Hogwarts, wasn't it; and that line of thought only brought him back to Billy's remarks in the greenhouse regarding college and habits, and he just needed not to think about that right now.

He was going to have a good time if it killed him. And he was looking forward to it.
