An aesthetic kind of break down on the story I am working on about Lothiriel and Boromir and Lothiriel and Eomer.  It’s weirdly based around letters and funerals?  I dunno it’s not very far into it yet and it’s 4am.  For anyone that wants to know Lothiriel is, in my mind, portrayed by Jessica Parker Kennedy.

Everyone forgets Boromir’s role in The Lord of the Rings.  Everyone forgets that it was Boromir who was concerned for the hobbits when they were freezing to death in The Pass of Caradhras.  No one remembers that it was Boromir who grabbed Frodo and held him and carried him to safety as Gandalf fell to his death.  Everyone seems to forget that it was Boromir who comforted Gimli outside Moria and implored Aragorn to give everyone “a moment for pity’s sake!”

No one remembers Boromir’s bravery, his leadership, or his great big heart.  Instead, he is remembered only for a fleeting moment of weakness, when he gives in to The Ring and tries to take it from Frodo by force.  He gets so much hate for this and yet… this is a man who loves unconditionally his country, his family, and the hobbits who have become his friends…

This is a brief excerpt from my full blog post on Boromir.  The whole post can be found here: https://arwencuar.tumblr.com/post/154318232455/sonofgondor

Then hope unlooked-for came so suddenly to Eomer’s heart, and with it the bite of care and fear renewed, that he said no more, but turned and went swiftly from the hall.

Eomer is a freaking chief

Don’t get me wrong, what Eowyn did was badass. No argument.

But uh… Lemme point a thing to you.

So Eomer gets banished, right? Takes two thousand of his men, and rides through the Westmarch, killing Uruks as he goes.

Gandalf rides up, and basically says, “Hey, I fixed your uncle, but the Uruk-hai are marching to attack him at Helms Deep; he needs you, or he’s gonna die.”

So Eomer rides two days, nonstop, and then him and his men dive right into a battle against 10,000 men. And they win.

They march back home, spend a day celebrating. Gandalf rides off, and Eomer thinks, “Hey, maybe I can relax for a bit now.”

Nope. Two days later, the beacons are lit. Eomer is sent to rally the men of the countryside, then meet Theoden. They’re there approximately two days, in which time, Eomer -as Marshal of the Mark, the king’s nephew, and now heir -presumably helps with planning, logistics, and inspection. He rides three days, breakneck speed, into the battle of Pelennor Fields. They crush the orcs…

BUT THEN… the mumakil (elephant) riders show up. So without taking more than a few deep breaths, he rallies his men to turn and keep fighting.

In the books, during that battle, he finds Theoden, and basically says, “Protect his body, we’re gonna get him off the field. This is important.” Then he finds his sister, and basically Hulk rages out, and runs off alone, slaughtering as he goes until he runs into Aragorn, and they then have a Bro It Up slaughter-fest.

Finds out his sister is still alive after the battle, and stays by her side until Aragorn calls him to a meeting. It’s at that meeting when the suggestion of taking their few remaining men, and marching on the Black Gate is suggested.

And Eomer… This dude probably hasn’t slept in at least two days, slept in a horse for almost a week before that, who had maybe two or three days of non-fighting/non-planning. Who fought a massive battle he was supposed to lose two days ago, and another massive battle against a force that out-numbered him a week before that, with only two days of down time in-between…

That dude right there says, “Fuck it. Let’s do it. I’m down.”

Like this dude had the fortnight from Hell, and he still marched into every battle, fought like an absolute beast, survived, and then was down to march into his third unwinnable battle in less than two week’s time.

And what makes this even more impressive? His men loved him enough to go, “Hell yeah dude. Let’s do it.” All three times.

Like… Eomund and Theodwyn had boss ass children, with the stamina of a horse, the fierceness of a tiger, the loyalty of a dog, and the ‘give no fucks’ of a wolverine.
