Sometimes I wish Thorin and Frerin could have properly met Boromir and Faramir. I just have a lot of feelings about all of them

OH GOD YES THIS. ALWAYS.

I have a lot of feelings about them too. And how Boromir and Thorin just. Have such similarities in their backgrounds and motivations, and auuuugh. And Faramir is so SO like who my Frerin might have grown up to be.

LOTS OF FEELINGSSSSS.

Gimli and Boromir having the “younger siblings can be annoying but we love them anyway” talk. Bonus points for discussion of adorable nephew antics.

zlasdkjhflasdhgfsljagfslhj ALL THE BOROMIR FRIENDSHIPS YES PLEASE

Excuse me Mr. Dain Ironfoot, just because you have an inexplicable battlepig doesn’t mean you can waltz in here and insult my brother my captain my king. grumble ‘Beard like a lavvy-brush’, indeed. ((ok, I laughed.))

Boromir has Strong Feelings 😉

((thank you, Nonnie!))

This is for Determamfidd
Athanu men
*bow down on one knee to determamfidd*

HAHAHAHAHA Boromir has overcome the banana! (it’s okay, Brucey-babes, we know you’re invincible really!!!)

It did cheer me up, thank you so much Morran! Whatta pair of cuties they are ❤

morranperedhel:

Another gift for determamfidd. The brothers lost to one another.

AUGH OH MORRAN

*cries tears of pure fire* AUGH I LOVE IT IT HURTS SO GOOD

morransfanart:

This is a silly gift for determamfidd

AWWWW HAHAHAHAHAHA

Boromir is scared of bananas. I love it. I LOVE IT.

Gimli’s turn to be 100% done. ~~Somewhere, somewhen, Aragorn is cackling gleefully.~~

Thank you SO much! CUTIE LEGO BABIES

do you have any headcanons about the afterlife for men? i really want to know what boromir is up to. (love your writing! and sorry if this got sent twice)

(Thank you, Nonnie!)

I haven’t really come up with anything for the afterlife for Men, I’m afraid. I’ve been very Dwarf-focused!

askmiddleearth has a really good guide on the different afterlives for Elves, Men (including Hobbits) and Dwarves. Here’s the summary!

Though, the fact that Men (and Hobbits!) go somewhere unknown even to the Valar is sorta intriguing. Perhaps they come to our world? Perhaps you passed Boromir in the street, or Gilraen on the bus today – or do you yourself have odd dreams now and then, of a white tower with pennants flapping in the wind, and the distant call of silver trumpets?

😉

I want a Boromir doll! Does it come with a tiny Merry and a tiny Pippin?

OMG I WANT ONE TOOO.

(and it SHOULD, if there is any justice in this world. Boromir + Hobbits. Yus.)

This may be one of the funniest things

I know this is a small thing but I just want to say I love the amount of detail you put into the different fighting styles. Not just of each race by also individuals. I remember one scene where Thorin is watching the Fellowship in battle and comparing Gimli’s solidness to Legolas’ unearthly quickness, and even Boromir’s practiced forms to Aragorn’s blended style and my little nerd heart cried with joy. (The part where he judged Aragorn as the best swordsman he’d ever seen didn’t hurt either.)

*blushes* AHHH thank you so much, Nonnie. You are very kind!

I like the contrast of their fighting styles, so adapted to their lives and physicalities and, yeah! I don’t know a damned thing about actual expert-level sword or axe fighting, but gosh I like to watch it.
