If I buy you ribbons, will I offend your father or ruin your chances for a good match?

[ let's make it simple. ]

An elf buying me a ribbon would be a lot less of a headache and a good deal easier to keep quiet than the last thing I tried to get out of a "good match".

( -- she probably wouldn't have said that, or so cynically, earlier in the day. )

It's a bit late to consider my father's feelings. You've done a hundred things to offend him.

And how many of them are legitimate, and not simply because I am Quendi?

[ he's actually curious, he knows little of the culture. ]

Neither of those things. He just doesn't care for anyone I -

( can't say 'like' )

- associate with. You'll offend him if you give me a gift. Well, if he hears of it.

( literally any gift.

also, why would he, she doesn't tell him anything. )

He is jealous? Why? You are his daughter, it makes only sense that you should one day leave his house to build your own. Is it the custom to cloister daughters so unbreathable close?

[ he's already thinking of what ribbons would suit her best. he's not afraid of the spectre of her father, a man more poet than warrior. ]
