Thanks very much. :waves again:

;) guilty

:holds up hand and waves: count me, count me! Yep, definitely a Boromir lover. Nice to meet you.

It was a sacrifice. This grew out of conversations at HA about whether Galadriel actually 'tempted' Boromir when she entered his mind -- whether the whole thing was a set up. Even if it didn't go quite that far, I've sometimes thought that both Galadriel and Gandalf knew/should have know what was going to happen. The fact the Gandalf saw exactly what was going on at the Council, knew the whole family dynamic of Denethor's family, and still didn't say boo against Boromir going on the quest is suspicious. So I Boromir both *was* a sacrifice to the greater plan (passively) in addition to heroically sacrificing himself for M and P at the end. Thanks for your feedback on my bits!

It's so freaking unfair. He shouldn't have died. Absolutely shouldn't have died. Amen! Preach on! It really sort of ruined the last movie for me, because, dammit, I missed Boromir. **rips her copy of LOTR into tiny pieces** No, no, no! Not before you finish your version, please. ;) "Very nice drabbles," Lindorien mutters, beating a hasty retreat, hoping nobody notices all the ripped up pieces of red leather stained with her tears. Thanks so much. I'm going come back and look at your kind words from time to time, 'cause I'm having a devil of a time writing anything new at the moment.

Glad it worked! Thanks. I don't have the creative energy to write one of those big AU narrative where he lives (although I love to read them), but I found myself watching the coronation scene in RotK thinking, "It's not b**dy *fair*!"

Thanks, Ann. I feel the same way about that moment in the film: so small and says so much about him.
