The few farmers that still grazed cattle on the Pelennor were building up their homesteads instead of boarding up and burrowing in.

He felt a small measure of pride when he rode across the new bridge for the first time —he had seen the plans and budgets but never the bridge itself— instead of having to wade through the shallow part further upstream as he had done for years. And then finally, they rode into the woods. The moment they left the plains and were surrounded by the trees, the bright sunshine now filtered into that magical shimmer, he felt the stress and tension that he’d unconsciously carried in his body for months, fall away.

He looked behind him to gauge the princes’ reaction, but found that his fellow riders who were there a minute ago had now vanished. He looked around confused, and then suddenly felt a sharp stinging jab to his thigh. And then darkness came…

Thanks Laivindur! Great to hear it’s appreciated – thanks a lot for taking the time out to comment!

Yay! More yumminess!:)I like A’s meanness:) that he uses Faramir but keeps him out of the inner circle, and that he’s rough. Very, very nice!

— Minx    Monday 19 November 2012, 17:49    #

Ooh! I just saw this. And I love. Faramir’s hesitant, overeager to please replies and the twins’ lovely callousness, all of it is splendidly yummy.

Glad you like it! Next chapter I’m going to be nice to Faramir again (and then again nasty in the chapter after that).
(and sorry I haven’t been in touch lately — it’s no excuse but i’ve been terribly busy.)
