I clicked on your stories page to find your drabble and got distracted on this for a moment. But am very glad I did. You know, I've always had an idea that they would make a good couple, and I like the way you paced and finished this - so in character IMO, and in keeping with the books. Makes you wonder what might have happened if the War of the Ring etc hadn't gotten in the way, as their personalities definitely compliment each other and would make interesting reading.

Very nice, Nancy! I'm usually not a fan of romance, but this was much more interesting than most courting (or quasi-courting) stories..... not at all the fluff you mentioned in your note.

Both their characters seemed right, given the clues we have from the books. But gah! that Boromir is so darn arrogant! Rolling Eyes smiley face

oh, such an arrogant brat he is!

i like it. Twisted Evil smiley face

i think if any of the women in tolkien's world could challenge boromir it would be eowyn, and i like how you handled the possibility. nice hint of sadness, too - "When this war ends..." - a lost chance if ever there was one.

Some possible connection to her future affection for Faramir? Very clever, Nancy B.

Nailed them both very well.

I do love your stories. 100 words of your writing is simply not enough.

Both your Eowyn and your Boromir were spot on, very in keeping with what we see of them in the books.

I really enjoyed this, thanks for sharing Nancy.

Very much enjoyed it, spot on characterisation (I imagine Eowyn had been somewhat more lively before her uncle took ill). And your Boromir, of course, is simply GAH! So, well done. Smile smiley face

I don't know how i missed this one - i've done that for several wonderful tales lately. I wanted to smack boromir for even thinking about Eowyn as a wife Laughing smiley face Good portrayal of the young shield maiden.
