So Ive been reading the lord of the rings (im on the third book woooo) and im remembering just how much i used to love it

i just have a lot of feels about Boromir (and Faramir) ;D

actually i have a lot of feels about just about everyone in that book geez

Headcannon that the reason Aragorn never takes a bath is because when he does his hair gets like really fluffy (like frickin clown looking fluffy) and everyone makes fun of him for it.

FLOOFAGORN SON OF FLOOFATHORN

As Boromir says, ‘Gondor has no conditioner, Gondor needs no conditioner’

sovinly:

So I’ve been re-skimming some LotR in between looking for new books to read and Boromir mentions his brother like, three times in the Council of Elrond. And I realize it’s dramatic foreshadowing shit, but consider (modern au apparently) Boromir who just talks about his brother all the time and has so many pictures:

“Hobbits like poetry? My brother won a poetry contest in third grade!!! You know who’d love to hear more about Dwarves? My brother. Gosh, I can’t wait until we all get to Minas Tirith so I can show you all the best things about my city and you can meet my brother.”

–

“Yeah, I’ve seen Boromir, he’s a great dude,” says Eomer, “but I hear he talks about his brother a lot?”

–

“How do I know you’ve actually met my brother?” asks Faramir. “And how do you know who I am?”

“… I have seen probably a hundred pictures of you and heard the stories behind all of them,” says Frodo.

“Ah,” says Faramir, resigned. “Yeah, okay, you’ve met him.”

ridiculousinpiccadilly:

return of the king, only when gandalf comes to denethor in minas tirith, his opening line is

denethor…my guy…ur son boromir…is no moromir

“You’re out of grapes”-BWAHAHA. Oh, Dis, mithril heart and spine. Okay, I’ve never had such emotion reading the part about Arwen and Frodo, or Gimli and Eomer resolving their conflict before. So many feels! ARAGORN REMEMBERED BOROMIR’S PROMISE OF PENNANTS!! Pippin + Glorfindel = headaches. Dain understanding Hrera better than Balin? Priceless. Oh my heart. Breaking along with the fellowship. You. Left. It. On. A. Cliffhanger. This will either go very badly, or very silly.

AHHHHH asldkjfghlajhsdfa YOU ARE MADE OF PUREST UNTARNISHED AWESOME, THANK YOU SO MUCHHHH

heheheh Gimizh ❤ my tiny terror child! DIS dear lord I am so cruel to her and she is so damned. awesome.

Eeeee so thrilled you liked the way I took the canon sections and twisted them! The Frodo and Arwen meeting has always struck me as a bit too loose, so I pulled it tighter, and the Eomer-enters-as-King moment has always felt too pat. I mean, the guy was 3rd Marshall of the Riddermark – Theodred was the one groomed for the crown, not Eomer. So, I made it more about him going ‘WHOA THIS IS REALLY. REALLY OVERWHELMING.’ – and then the Gimli scene is his escape from that, heh! (ALSO GIMLI YOU SMOOTHIE. ‘My heart is given to the morning’ YOU SMOOTH SMOOTH BASTARD.)

YEP, THAT’S RIGHT. BOROMIR’S ‘WHITE TOWER OF ECTHELION’ SPEECH. I WENT THERE. I REFERENCED IT.

(“I would see the glory of Gondor restored. Have you ever seen it, Aragorn?

The White Tower of Ecthelion, glimmering like a spike of pearl and silver, its banners caught high in the morning breeze. Have you ever been called home by the clear ringing of silver trumpets?”)

BECAUSE BOROMIR. THAT’S WHY. ARAGORN DID NOT EVER FORGET.

oh you just know Pippin and Glorfindel ended up dancing on the table together at some point. 😀

HEHEHEHEH DAIN. Balin is clever af, but Dain understands people :)))

*ducks* ooohboy. I’m working as fast as I can on the next one! ALSO THERE WILL BE A SONG. I hope a new song makes up for the cliffie! SORRYYYYY NONNIE SORRY.

*hugs* you are absolutely wonderful – augh thank you SO SO much!!

But you will not see that.

#sobbing #because though aragorn was the divinely-chosen king descendent from the line of kings #boromir was the one who had grown to manhood among his people; grown up defending and loving them #to him they were not just a faceless mass waiting to be led #or helpless children in the face of the power of the east #they were the warriors that fought beside him and the women that sold their goods in the market and his brother and his father #the houses of healing and the white tree #everything boromir was or ever hoped to be was inextricably bound to gondor; to minas tirith #and here was this elf-raised numenorean who not only was rightful heir to the throne boromir thought defunct #but did not even have the decency to respect and care for the people he would be ruling from it #of course boromir is angry #of course he tries to make aragorn see #boromir you are my favorite until the end of time #the fleeting voice of falliable humanity amid a narrative of gods and heroes#humanity that loves and humanity that falls #ack (via notbecauseofvictories)
