Author: WinterTouched
Chapters: 1

Category: Lord of the Rings
Description: Halbarad, Aragorn, and Niringil are riding north to Annuminas, rangers united again after Aragorn’s coronation and the destruction of Sauron. Despite all the changes that have occurred in their lives, they are still the same old scheming ranger pals after all. Sounds mushy, but is complete opposite; think overgrown boys on horseback.
Randomly listening to coldplay, randomly doing my AP notes on “Westernizing Russia, 1690-1790” and randomly thinking about LOTR, this drabble sort of squeaked out of my brain.

Chapter 1 - We Never Change
Halbarads grin was always widest, glimmering of mischief. Ellesar, the only news I have heard from the White City is that of your wife. It seems she has sent the whole court into a tizzy over her refusal to hire a nursemaid.
Yes, Im sure the next Great War will be over my wifes lovely bosom and who is allowed to suck upon it. Aragorns quick smile appeared beneath his beard. As of now, my son is the only one who has that right.
Apart from you, of course.
Oh, the gold I would pay to be that infant Niringil smiled dreamily.
A stern glare from the king followed. Now Niringil, that is my wife and son you speak of.
I meant no offense.
You rarely do.
Halbarad smiled at his old friends. We never change, do we? Were still the same fools we were when we first took the black.
Of course we havent changed. The king grinned. How unpleasant of us should we ever become men.
