Boo back.” Her smile exposed feline white teeth.
Kíli let out a laugh, entwining himself around her in the most graceful way possible for a dwarf, which essentially entailed doing his best not to kick her with his enormously clunky boots. “It’s supposed to be something you say when you’re trying to scare or surprise someone… My father used to chase Fí and I around the woods, and he’d sneak up on us, and jump out, and - yell it, I suppose.” Kíli trailed off, partially because he noted with embarrassment that he was rambling once again, but also because he realized that he knew absolutely nothing about Tauriel’s family.

Then again, his tact had never been particularly strong. “If you don’t mind me asking, of course.” Kíli added hurriedly, hoping he hadn’t broached a touchy subject.
