Wow - being so long since the original post I didn't expect a reply! Ahhh the wonders of LJ. Will probably be posted at Sons Of Gondor, since I think it's too NC17 for HASA, but will be linked from my lj I think - with much jubilation to have finally finished it! Currently first two-thirds approx is in beta; it runs at about 60k words at present... but then can one rewrite canon and much of the third vol for less? *G*

Plot:
Theodred, warned by Haldir on the instructions of Galadriel, saves Boromir at Amon Hen. He takes badly wounded Boromir towards Rohan when they can no longer keep up with the Three. They are intercepted by a small party of elves led by Haldir and later rescued from an encounter with renegade Men by a larger group led by Celeborn. After fighting off an orc raid where Theodred is injured, they're both taken to an elven encampment in Fangorn. After recovering, Theodred returns with an escort of four elves down river by boat to join the Riders of the Mark on their way to Gondor [they haven't got there/met them as yet!]

Meanwhile, Boromir, still not fully healed, is taken to Lorien by Celeborn and Haldir - here he takes part in the first and second sieges of Lorien.
- still to be written: Third siege, storming of Dol Guldor, and Boromir's return to Gondor - along with Theodred catching up with the Riders and the Battle of the Pelennor... and their eventually reunion... which I think will be about the time of the Coronation... did I mention epic? *G*

I adore MiraculouslySaved!Boromir, so I'll be looking forward to seeing the story when it's posted. (I may be more of an A/B gal than T/B, but you've definitely sold me on the pairing. It makes a lot of sense.)

Your plot sounds awesome. And epic!

A note to anybody who reads this far...

'Prince of Horses, Lord of Stone' running into many chapters and numerous ocs is posted at HASA. Third Siege and Storming of Dol Guldor written, along with Theodred's race to the Battle of the Pelennor. Apart from which... Still a WIP after all these years... but I posted an Epilogue which ties up some of the characters, just as this scene is an epilogue in its own right.

I will get to complete it some day, but now I'm not putting a date on it!
