I always knew that Raggy was a filthy ranger! Typical of him to actually enjoy popping fleas AND be able to catch them mid-air.
Thank you for such a wonderful glimpse into the sanitary (or not) state of the Fellowship. Love the image of Boromir in that icy stream and also his memories of playing with Théodred. Just what were they doing together in that stable, I wonder...

AND be able to catch them mid-air.
*LOL* That was a bit of a Mr. Miyagi moment, wasn't it? But I couldn't resist. ^_^

Well, I had pictured them as rather young here, but that doesn't preclude them doing, er, "things" together in the stable later, I imagine. *G*

I'm pleased you enjoyed it! Thank you so much. ^_^

Oh gosh! This makes me giggle on so many levels... heheheheeeeh poor bug-infested Boromir... (there's a phrase I never thought I'd say...)

[caras_galadhon]

*G* Hee. I'm glad you enjoyed it! Poor Boromir indeed, eh? Thanks!

This is brilliant - Aragorn, the big mangey fleabag infecting poor Boromir with them! Made me laugh so much! They need dunked in sheep dip, the pair of them!

The bead bloomed, blossomed and broke, painting his skin.

That's especially brilliant - it's exactly what it looks like!

Brilliantly written!

*LOL* The quicker, the better, too.

Thanks! I'm glad. I've been bitten by plenty of mosquitoes, but it's both too cold and too dry here for fleas to get any real foothold, so I've never actually seen a fleabite well up. *knocks on wood*

Thank you again for your lovely comments! *G*

I suppose we should be grateful he's not eating them - blood protein...oooh, this is making me squirm, but an unusual and probably long overdue take on their situation. Thanks for posting.

Ha! And also, ew. *shudder* Immensely grateful, I think.

oooh, this is making me squirm, but an unusual and probably long overdue take on their situation.
Thanks! *G* And if it helps any, I ended up horribly itchy while writing the damn thing myself. ^_~

Heh. That is so something Aragorn would do when in the impish mode that earned him the "Surúlion" nickname from my Arwen when he was a child in Imladris ;) Lovely and incredibly IC as well

Hee! Thanks fantastic to hear, and I'm so pleased you enjoyed it. *G*
