“I know it’s late, but I can’t help being curious… How loud are the two of you in bed? I myself tend to sing up an entire opera and I was curious to see whether it’s an ainu thing or simply a… ‘me’-thing. All for science of course”

…Yes, reports your vocal acrobatics are well documented. 

I confess that I myself abhor silent lovemaking. Not to disparage those moments that are quite and tremulous, of course– it needn’t be ear-shattering, just a few notes sweeten the victory and communicate one’s sentiment.
 I’ve known men who think it beneath them to utter more than a grunt at climax; as if silent, joyless pistoning were their sex’s only duty… may they reap the disappointing harvest that they sow. 

As you may know, my lord is not known for his restraint, nor his silence.
When I first came to him, the vulgarities he cried in pleasure half made me swoon (dignified servant of Aulë that I was); even now some of the things he says– some of the things I’ve said– in our intimacy make my face hot when I think of them outside the bedchamber. …Do you find that a certain level of crudeness brings out new heights of pleasure and unrestraint in your passion? I certainly have, though the phenomenon is strange to me.

But sweet hells, I live for it. He has filled my ear with the most delicious, unwholesome whispers, and the raw music of his bliss. I hope they can hear him on Taniquetil. I hope they are deafened by the pleasures we’ve found in exile.

Tell me, how does a Dark Lord… entertain oneself when one’s preferred partner for– ah– Sunday-type activities is unavailable?

The same way you do, I imagine; with a stirring fiction in mind and two free hands, give or take the aid of some intimate devices… 

In fact, sometimes my preferred partner is myself. Learning to give pleasure to yourself is an art of its own, wholly different giving or receiving pleasure with a lover. Not only can you attain some of the most thrilling sensations a body can experience, but it offers insight into one’s own private needs and fantasies– itches that cannot always be scratched by another.
I fully believe that a healthy relationship with your own body will enhance your ability to communicate and enjoy any future liaisons with a partner as well.  

I recommend it heartily to all, even to those who are strangers to having bodies in the first place!

…Honestly, and there are those of our kind who question why one would choose to live primarily in corporeal form rather than drifting as an aimless, senseless ghost. Do they know what they’re missing?

Too Tame? Ah, then – during raucous, bed-thumping fu….uh, intimacy – who crawls off in the corner mumbling, ” Enough!” to pass out first?

The fine and wonderful thing about being Ainur is that the only limit is your imagination– and the architectural stability of your surroundings. We usually stop when one of the volcanoes goes off.
