I am plot-blocked on two fics whereas cheerful fluff is cheerful and coming along swell. This is problematic since classes start next week. Speaking of which I already have homework for next week, but it's for my Early Modern Drama class which I am super looking forward to because I couldn't be nerdier if I tried. So.

See I don't think they'd ever be BFFs: if anything, that would be Merry for her. I think there's too much hero worship and even when she realizes (if she ever does) Aragorn is really a mortal man it would still be tinged with "He's the King!" super-loyalty etc.

I also thought that the possibility of an Aragorn/Eowyn relationship would have been more interesting in developing Aragorn as a character, because he's such a young man when he falls for Arwen and there's all this mythic stuff in his mind about perfect love and Beren and Luthien (and I think some of that is true for her as well) that I don't think that "real life" would have really suited them all that well. Whereas Eowyn has spent pretty much all her life running a keep and everything, she would have been a true partner to him.
