*curtain comes up*

Tarwa: WELCOME TO ASK ARDA!

*audience cheers*

Tarwa: Welcome to our first episode of Ask Arda! We answer your Middle-earth questions every Tuesday! Today we have two very special guests: Thranduil and Legolas!

Thranduil: *walks in like a catwalk model*

Legolas: *trails behind*

Tarwa: So, guys, are you excited?

Thranduil: HECK YEAH!

Legolas: Uhhhhmmm, actually...

Thranduil: Yup, he's really excited too.

Legolas: -_-

Tarwa: Great! So, let's hop right into it. This first question is from EmilyMaurer, and she asks: "Can elves get a tan?".

Thranduil: Well of COURSE we can! How do you think I got this perfectness? *points to himself*

Docter_Space: *jumps onto the stage* Huh! As if. Just watch this. *pulls out phone and shows them an ad for Elf Spray-on Tan*

Ad: Elf Spray-on Tan! Doesn't make you look orange like with those poor hobbits, but fabulous!

Doctor_Space: You're welcome! *hops off stage*

Tarwa: *raises eyebrow at Thranduil*

Legolas: Yup, he uses spray-on tan. Elves don't tan.

Thranduil: I could get a tan if I wanted too. *sulks*

Tarwa: There, there Thrandy. Maybe this next question will cheer you up. Eluial asks: "Thranduil, have you ever plucked your eyebrows?".

Thranduil: Of course not! Why would I pluck my eyebrows when they're so fabulous already? *sassy hair flip*
