Wonderful! Faramir and Eomer are probably my two favorite characters in all of Middle-earth, and you captured them so well. A thoroughly entertaining study in contrasts... Loved it. And the last line was priceless. :D

I think what I love best about your collaborations with Altariel (this and Aftermath)- beyond even the excellent writing and wonderful characterizations - is how you showcase the different perspectives by overlapping the conversations as you switch back and forth. It so clearly shows how each character has his own POV, including misunderstandings and misinterpretations of the other person's! I also loved how Eowyn's playfulness came out when she stuck her tongue out at Faramir before leaving, and Eomer's wish at the end to just get well and drunk with his soon-to-be brother-in-law. Please do more of these collaborations whenever you can!
(I'm so very glad that Silver Swan is finally getting up to this point! I can't wait to see how Hethlin is worked into the stories you and Altariel have already written, but in which she is not specifically mentioned.)

I really enjoyed this story. You captured the strong contrasts between their characters so well--and the switching back and forth between their interior thoughts was super. Thanks for posting this!

Delightful! I had great fun reading this :) I was either snickering or laughing throughout the whole time. Poor Faramir...! Poor Eomer...! Those two clearly are mismatched. I sure hope they had fun!

OOh, this was great. I can say like any t00by fan I think I can see Altariel's hand in this, and now must check out your userpage and compare and contrast.
I heart you people.
I love your interactions, although the overlaps are a bit confusing. Maybe I'm just slow tonight.
Anyway, an excellent job.

A very skillfully done story! And very enjoyable as well. I think you protrayed both characters excellently, including their very different ways of thinking. One moment I especially like was totally incidental, but I loved that Eowyn turned aroun and stuck her tongue out at Faramir. I've always thought that he brought out a playfullness in her that others wouldn't have. This is an excellent story, and I look forward to reading more of your work!

Followed the link from A'Mael Taren...
Oh! Just bloody fantastic, this was! This was an excellent idea and an excellent execution of said idea.
Both characters are strongly drawn and the "voices" of the authors blended well to maked each transition from Éomer to Faramir and back again seamless.
I thoroughly enjoyed this and am glad it was as long as it was--would have loved to have read even more!--so as to get a really good standpoint for each character.

Hahaha! I quite enjoyed reading this. I think it was wonderfully written. I liked the switching point of view. It made it very interesting to read.
And especially, I loved the ending. It was wonderful. Amazing. Hilarious. Great job!

Gagh! Noo!! Not Eomer and Lothíriel! Eomer and Heth! I tell you! Grr-r! ::Sniff:: I should stop making a fool of myself because the way captain was going and how this went...Eomer will be with Lothiriel, which greatly saddens me... My vote stands strong and stubborn for Eomer with Hethlin, no Imrahil or Elrohir but Eomer!
Alright, I thought to say somthing after my...venting if you wish to call it. I was drawing and started rereading RoTK cause I never finished that one and I was thinking to write maybe a fanfiction on one of the Northern Rangers, female possibly, which the idea is also credited to you cause of the mentioning of women also being rangers in the north...and her coming into the story when the group of Rangers join King Theoden's escort..but I doubt I will write one and if it does happen it will not be for an extremely long time.

An exemplary display of court wits. Sounds like trying to talk ones self out of trouble with a teacher.
And the last two lines are *classic*

This is lovely, and I love how beautifully the two POVs meld so seemlessly together. Fantastic in-law interview all round!
