"A toast, to absent friends," he said, raising his glass, resting his other hand affectionately on her shoulder.
Arwen's eyes glittered with unshed tears. "So many gone," she said, raising her glass as well, "except for you, the one constant in my life. To you, Elladan."
They drank. Elladan smiled his perfect smile.
It was their last time together.
