I like the image, the thought, of them laughing.

[almaheart]

Me, too. So rarely were they ever both were at ease, what with the war and their father.

[shirebound]

Ohhh, what a precious memory for Faramir and his men to keep with them.

[almaheart]

I didn't even think of it from that perspective. Yes, I'm sure Faramir will cherish this image of his brother as he would wish to be remembered.

...You know how easy it is to mistake you for an orc.

A nice exchange from one brother to another... it feels very real.

[almaheart]

Tehehe. Thank you. I'm glad having siblings has served me well at least in that. It's fun to show these two as they would be without the war and the strife.

-sniggers- I'm not sure "nice" is the word Boromir would choose.

Ah, I like this moment between brothers!

[almaheart]

Thank you! It was fun to just write them relaxed for a change, and wonder what they'd do when just allowed to be together.

[huinare]

Well done. I could feel Boromir's gladness to be back.

the tense, predatory shadows
I like that!

[almaheart]

Thank you! Realizing that this was one of the only safe places in all of Ithilien, more or less, and his brother's "home", made me want to write about Boromir's feelings for Henneth Annun.

I rewrote that phrase about four times, I'm so glad you picked it out! The danger of Ithilien is hard to sum up briefly.
