This was really well written. Little Boromir has a lot of personality here--I like the end where his smile gets bigger when Aragorn speaks to him. And all Aragorn's contemplations here are very meloncholy. I especially liked, "The hand that rests so peacefully against your mother's breast will all too soon grasp a sword." And Aragorn's thoughts about his mother and her sacrifice. Well done.

Elliska, I already told you this privately... but thank you for the review.
I did intend this to have a melancholy tone. I don't doubt he had fun, but when it came to his future kingdom I don't doubt he took matters seriously. And the birth of his steward's first heir might make him think a loton Arwen. (At this point in the sotry they haven't plighted their troth.
And that was one of my favourite lines, too. Glad you liked it.
