I was unable to find the phrase "So that's why they call it..." Isn't it suppose to be in the fanfic Confused smiley face

Very nice, Nancy. Fluffy but heart-warming. Sadly, there aren't many of those fics around - and certainly not enough of Denethor ones where he ain't portrayed as a lunatic, Faramir-beater.

Thanks for this little jewel.

do.

I hardly ever come to this site anymore, but by happenchance I came here today and wandered around a bit. Within seconds I found your fic and it made my day! Smile smiley face

These short fics of yours are a nice shot of Boromir-ness just when you need them. I didn't think it was sappy at all -- it's hard for a writer to be TOO adoring of Boromir so that I get annoyed. Very Happy smiley face

Though there have been some that have him too passionate and manly for my taste (ugh). Anyway, the way you tied up the meaning of his name to what would be expected of him and what his future would most likely be even before he's one day old was very poignant. And plus, you did a good job with Denethor, too. You have a knack for making him approachable or at least showing tender emotions, as in Requiem. Thanks for that. I've finished a chapter of Passages where he's a bit more forbidding, but of course it takes place long after what you've written. He is a tough nut to crack, for sure. Good work. Cool smiley face

This was a lovely moment in the mind of Finduilas, a character most folks tend to brush aside. Indeed, as you've written her, I can see that even in her own eyes, she might have ignored her own needs and wishes. Although the piece overtly concerns Boromir, I saw it as a lilting and certainly sad portrait of Finduilas. Beautiful writing, as always, of course.

Oh, lovely Smile smiley face

Not sappy at all, not even a little, just true to the moment and true to the characters in question. What a wonderful glimpse into the joy that came before the sorrow! Choice will indeed be in his life....
