Just a few notes:

-- Do not write to me to tell me that my Boromir vids (and stories, for that matter) would be better with Legolas. There is a reason they have Boromir in them, featured so strongly: they are about Boromir.

-- Not everybody thinks that Legolas is the star of Lord of the Rings. I'm open-minded enough to understand that there are people out there who do not see Boromir for the multifaceted (sexyashell) character that he is. I can accept this. So please respect my decision for picking Boromir as my favourite character.

-- I believe in the book. There are a lot of times I like the Fellowship movie better, actually, most times, but I believe in the book, too, particularly for Two Towers. Therefore, I believe in Legolas/Gimli. Call me heretical if you will, but I'm more fond of the Professor's vision of these characters than I am of Peter Jackson's. Legolas had a personality and Gimli was a lot less clownish.

-- The world does not revolve around the frelling Elf.

-- There is a reason I write and vid about Boromir. I like him. A lot. I like Sean Bean. A lot. I am not wasting my time and talent. I am doing stuff I love. I do not find perfect!pretty!movie!Legolas to be a particularly interesting character. There isn't much going on there. Boromir has a larger role in Fellowship and, ultimately, a far more interesting character arc.

-- Please. If you want the Legolas stuff so badly (minus the Gimli, because [sarcasm] god forbid people could actually like the Dwarf [/sarcasm]), go find the Legolas/Elf-centric Yahoo groups. Go look up the A/L slash that's out there, believe me, there's a lot of it. Write it yourself. Ask vidders how they make vids, and make your own.

My name is Ashinae, and I'm a Boromiraholic, and no amount of pretty Elf boy is gonna change that.

Good night.

Yeah, all that ELf Love gets annoying. And I got that "your work is awesome, if only I could get you to write about LEGOLAS smut..."

*sigh*

BOROMIR ROCKS! Yes, even if he died in the first movie and was tempted by the One Ring.

I feel your frustration!

BOROMIR ROCKS! Yes, even if he died in the first movie and was tempted by the One Ring.

I'll always argue that's part of the reason why Boromir rocks so much!
