    Summary

    Pippin scrambled to sit down next to Boromir. In his haste, their elbows knocked together, but Boromir did not react or admonish him. Indeed, he seemed content to let the sounds of the forest do his talking, the two of them surrounded by humid air and the thrum of distant Elvish singing.

    Pippin stewed for a few seconds more, breath heavy, but could not stop himself.

    He blurted, “Mister Boromir, can I ask you something?”

    Boromir sighed, nodded, and then spoke. “You may, master Hobbit.”

    “Do you think Gandalf meant to die?”

    Summary

    Earlier that day, her grandsire had looked upon the sea with her. Most of the dragons sat upon High Tide’s highest hill, yet Vhagar had chosen a sandy bed apart from the rest. She had hardly moved nor even twitched the entire day.

    Her grandsire had gestured to the dragon and said, “Does the very sight of it not reek with melancholy, Princess? With grief?”

    Helaena had nodded, grasping the velvet of her funeral cloak in sympathy for Vhagar. An old man might regale to you his sorrow in having outlived all his friends; were dragons any different? Had Vhagar not endured her fair share of sorrow?

    or: the au where helaena claims vhagar
