Such a Little Thing by Jenwyn (PG)
Fandom: LORD OF THE RINGS
Pairing: Aragorn/Boromir
Author on lj: Unknown
Author website: Unknown
Why this must be read: The author summarizes this story by saying, "It is a strange fate, to suffer so much fear and doubt over the man sitting beside you." Nothing *big* happens, but through the examination of little moments, this short fic says much about Aragorn and his relationship with the Ring and with Boromir.
But that lapse in the snow-- not so much Boromir's as his own-- not the command but the hand on the hilt of his sword-- how much damage had that display of mistrust done? Should he not have let Boromir overcome the Ring's whispers on his own, to give the man confidence in his ability to resist them? What had Aragorn's own doubts cost him? Cost the Fellowship?
