All those new spoilery pics from the Extended TTT of Boromir and Faramir have me really wanting to see Sean in a movie/series/miniseries of Boromir's adventures as protector of Gondor, prior to the whole Ring mess. It would probably end up being battle after battle, broken up by bonding time with his men and Faramir, with the occasional trip to Rohan, since the poor guy never got to have much of a life. So I guess it would be Sharpe, in armor, with fewer disposable love interests. Sounds good to me. And get Fran Walsh to write it, and the slashiness that would undoubtedly result would take care of the love interest problem.

Well, if the movies can be most comfortably approached as a fanfic treatment of the books, as some have said, what's wrong with wanting a Boromir-focused prequel? Such a lovely thought.

Yeah, it seems like a natural to me. So much potential there... If you find a bribeable author, I'll help bribe! *g*

Er... Maybe I shouldn't pimp my own stuff, and it's not quite what you're looking for, but [livejournal.com profile] savageseraph and I have long-term plans for a Dark!Aragorn AU (*long-suffering sigh* Did I mention I don't do AUs?) that should feature a LOT of Boromir and Faramir. We just have to, um, finish some other stuff first. *cries*

Ooh. Dark!Aragorn with lots of Boromir and Faramir sounds good to me! Especially if it's written by you and your Wicked Sister. *g* I look forward to it, whenever you guys get a chance to write it (no pressure, though. The epistolary thingie could go on forever, and I'd be happy. Though I doubt you guys would be).

*SMOOCH* Thank you. You're wonderful to say that.

Thanks. *G* I can't say I see the end in sight really soon, which is both thrilling and disturbing. I believe some part of me is still wailing, as it drowns, "But I don't write long pieces! Glub, glub."
