"Arwen's Gift" and "The Reaction"

Elrond sighed as his daughter scampered out of his office, leaving her latest "present" on his desk. In the middle of a very important report from King Thranduil. The gift blinked at him owlishly before emitting a loud "Rrrrrrbit" and jumping off the desk, and hopping out into the garden beyond the terrace door. Looking at his mud splattered report, Elrond sighed, smiling ruefully. Sometimes, as much as he loved her, he wished Arwen was a little less of a tomboy. Gathering a cloth, he carefully wiped the mud away, thinking of Arwen's grin as she gave him the frog.
