archet: true love (Default)
[personal profile] archet
Found this today, was written just after I'd seen FOTR and had fallen in love with Boromir, and was rapidly falling in love with A/B and though I'd forgotten all about this little drabble, I remember exactly the movie moment that inspired it: Boromir on his knees, shot through with arrows and taking a breath, bracing himself maybe, he just faces that bastard orc Lurtz, gives him this *look*. *sigh* No wonder I can't watch those scenes without bawling. The Bean is so good.

Title: Empty
Rating: PG
Pairing: None
Summary: Boromir, at the end, facing Lurtz alone.

Feedback: yes please, if moved to do so.




His hope had gone, leaving only despair and shame behind. How could he have been so blind? Were not his intentions pure?

There were no answers, only pain and emptiness inside, an emptiness that would now never be filled. It was over and the only wish he had left, aside of that for the triumph for his people, was that finally, at long last, he might find some shred of peace.

Peace, how undeserving he was of it, yet how he longed for it.

The shadow of the foul orc fell upon him, and Boromir lifted his chin and glared.

I think it's anything that reminds us of the incredible talent that is Sean Bean, and Boromir's death scene certainly qualifies!

Very true! Will post with sadness warning. Thanks, and *hugs* well, just because. :)

ps: I have something you might get a kick out of. A friend of mine challenged me to make take a photo of Boromir and elf-alize him, photo manip. him as an elf that is, and I've just finished with it. Drop me a note if you'd like to take a peek. ;)
