Okay, that did make her giggle, her head ducking down against his as she gave him a teasing poke. "If you're striking the anvil with your hammer, I might get jealous. And worry about damaging it. Your hammer that is." Horrible metaphor, Fili, but so perfectly him. "And maybe I can meet your brother, too."

He'd talked about him, but Riley still wanted to meet him. See if it was just Fili that was the way he was or if that extended to all dwarves in general. She was thinking that the pull between them was just between the two of them, but... hey. Who knows? Maybe dwarves and shifters were like... chocolate and strawberries.
