A lovely scene for Faramir and Eowyn.Poor faramir tripping like that!

Author Reply: That poor man! I shouldn't have enjoyed humiliating him, but I'm only human. He can't be the all-perfect, inscrutable Steward all the time.

Thanks! :)

Yes, this chapter is priceless. Best ending you could have written. *giggle* I chorkled when Faramir tripped and actually fell! :D My Dear, could you do a piece on "A Lady in red is dancin' with me?" My fave love song of all time. I think it was written for Fergy back in the early nineties? Oh well, if you don't know it, that's all right. *hugs* Neilia

Author Reply: I'll try it out as soon as I'm able, though I'll have to find the lyrics first.

I'm really glad you liked it. Thanks for sticking to this story right to the end! :)

What a "Wonderful", romantic story! To me, Faramir and Eowyn's romance was one of Tolkien's greatest, and I think they would have had a good marriage, though not without some ups and downs. And I do think that Faramir was a very romantic fellow...

Author Reply: Indeed he was! Faramir was a sensitive sort of person (said so in the book in different words, didn't it?) and I can well imagine a sensitive person being romantic.

As for Tolkien's greatest romance... well, there's also Tuor and Idril, in my own opinion, but yes, I think Eowyn and Faramir beat them, hands down.

Thanks for the review! :)

she has rendered me, the stern and wise Steward of Gondor, a happy fool.

What a lovely story. :)

Author Reply: Thank you! :)

I especially love thinking of Faramir as a "happy fool", since it's so unlike him! I guess I had fun making him into a complete nincompoop over Eowyn, LOL.

Yes, I bet the Witch-king would have recognized her expression indeed! Wonderful!
