And lose, today of all days?
[Kili won't lose, they both know.
In the kitchen, after dodging their mother and their uncle, who must have arrived sometime after Fili went back to bed, after fond smiles and embraces, and after quick minutes of setting the table, they have baking to sample. As always, Kili gets to take a roll first, and as always, his family holds back to finish theirs slowly.
Over breakfast, Fili speaks up with a question for his brother.]
Ready for your ink, Ki?
[Five years ago, Kili was there to watch the ritual and to get a closer look afterwards. It's been a frequent topic lately.]
