I've always thought that Faramir and Eowyn connected at first sight, but did not fall into deep and true love until after they first pledged to marry, during the year before their actual marriage, when they would have had more of a chance to get to know each other. You write a more bitter Faramir than Tolkien at this time, but acceptable in an AU. I really want to see where you're taking this story, so please continue it. Author Reply: Hi, and thanks for the review! Glad to see you're interested! Actually, that's what I thought too about how Eowyn and Faramir might have come to feel for the other. I just wanted to play Devil's advocate and imagine what would happen if they didn't connect so easily. From how I understood their relationship in its early days, it seemed to me that it was Faramir's openness and optimism that eased them through it. In order to "prevent" that, I had him more bitter - or had her come to him at the wrong time, earlier or later, so that whatever turmoil there may have been within him had no chance to subside. I do however hope that in the later chapters I've managed to make the feeling subside with time. Hope I don't disappoint! | |
