You draw out compelling contrasts here, between what characters' talents and hobbies were, previously, and what they are about to try and do now, and also between the subject of the conversation and what the characters are thinking about--not just Finarfin but the others, too. It's an interesting choice that you made--skipping the actual argument and going straight to the point when the decisions are already made.
(The discussion of slake also reminds me of a plot bunny I had once for a recipe fic challenge that came up--a genre I don't write, usually, because I'm not much of a cook--which involved Galadriel trying to work out in Araman how to cook things she wouldn't have considered edible before and recording the experiments in her travel diary. I didn't have the time to do the research, though.)
