The Dwarfling Troupe totally drag Laerophen into their plots. Balinith is fairly easy, being all “Can you reach that thing on the high shelf?” etc. Frerinith gets Laerophen to carry him around for extended periods, enjoying traveling in state at such heights. Wee Thorin usually helps Gimizh use Laerophen as leverage. “But Barur, we told Laerophen how good your pumpkin pie was and he wants to try it!” *puppy eyes*. Also going places that they mightn’t be able to otherwise b/c they are supervised.

HAHAHAHAHAHA

oh god, oh no. Laerophen, you have been kidnapped by pure adorable evil. Beware!

All the Durin kids getting together and practicing their glowers. Wee Thorin usually wins. Frerinith is usually too giggly.

Wee Thorin would DEFINITELY win. His scowl is a thing of epic grandeur. Grown Dwarves have been known to take a step back from it.

Balinith is an expert at the flat, level, unimpressed, ‘I am going to ignore the drivel pouring from your mouth’ stare.

Frerinith would certainly try, but would absolutely end up giggling. When Frerinith gets mad he gets all pouty and red-faced and crumply. He is a master of the “massive-indrawn-breath… HOLLER WITH INDIGNATION” art-form.

Gimizh can scowl. It’s not bad. But it’s nowhere near on the level of his friend. The thing to watch out for with Gimizh is sad puppy eyes. They are devastating (and he knows it, the lil shit hahaha).
