That's beautiful. I went and bought the extended edition of the ROTK dvd specifically so that I could catch what would prolly be a rather brief Faramir/Eowyn.
And reading that in the book made me giddy. Faramir and Gandalf are my two favorites, so I only wished the best for either.
Which they did get, thank God.
That was a beautiful analysis, though. I fear the fanfiction for LOTR because, as you said yourself, the original text is wonderful. Then again, I have a bias towards fanfic-ing any sort of novel. Especially near classics.
Not that I don't write fanfic, mind you. Just in fandoms that are... open.

Anyway, I've babbled off course. Great work.
