Éomer, my love, I have spoken to a man who is going to make us rocking horse for our daughter. I told him I should like it to look like the horse on our flag. He would like a sketch, and I wondered if you would like to come with me to meet with him? You know more of such things than do I.

Ah, yes. A sketch? I have no such things, but Firefoot's barding is emblazoned with the insignia.

Oh, that would be perfect. You will come with me, then?

I do not like meeting with strange men alone.

Yes. You do know she will not be big enough to sit on it for some time?

But we may set her on it and hold her, yes?

I know very little about babies. I have...never actually held one before.

When she's strong enough to hold her own head up, Swiftfoot.

She won't be able to do that?

... No. Not for many months.

Ai, edraith enni. I know so little. Goheno nin, Hîr vuin.

I know. I'll help you.

I couldn't do it without you. I'm so glad you're here. I was so lost before you came.

Aye, we'll work on that.

Work on what?

You feeling lost without me.

Is that...wrong?

There are no wrongs or rights.

I don't understand. Have I done something wrong?

No! Not at all. Honestly, truly.

I do not mean to seem needy. Or clingy. Forgive me.

[info]third_marshal
2013-04-03 06:16 am UTC (link)
There's nothing to forgive. You need to know I won't always be here, Lothiriel. You're a queen and you must rule in my stead when I am away. That requires you stand on your own.

I do not wish to think of those times, Éomer.

No! They scare me.

But they are true no less, and hiding won't aid you.

My father taught me how to do so, my love. He taught me everything I would need to know. If I must, I will. I promise.

[info]third_marshal

Aye, I want you to be strong with and without me.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]queenofrohan
2013-04-03 06:28 am UTC (link)
I want to be strong.

But my father told me that a lady does as her lord commands, and is submissive to him in all ways.

Your father is wrong.

Things are different in Rohan. Very different.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]third_marshal
2013-04-03 06:33 am UTC (link)
I know. But we're not even in Rohan here. Here is not Dol Amroth, and though your father is here you don't need to take every lesson he says to heart.

That isn't what I expect of you, you know that.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]queenofrohan
2013-04-03 06:35 am UTC (link)
Yes, I do know that.

I...am myself with you, you know. I try to be. I truly want to be. And I will try harder, I promise.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]third_marshal
2013-04-03 06:37 am UTC (link)
You're missing the point. I don't want you to change or try to do anything for me. I just want you to be yourself and do and think however you please.

You don't need to do things because it might please me or displease me. Do it or don't do it because it occurs to you to do so.

[...]

Like...like Éowyn.

Like yourself.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

It is a new idea to me.

But an interesting one.

I love you for you, not because you submit yourself to me. I didn't marry you for your ability to follow commands.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]queenofrohan
2013-04-03 06:44 am UTC (link)
Why did you?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]third_marshal
2013-04-03 06:46 am UTC (link)
Because I valued your spirit and the person I saw under the rigid masks Dol Amroth shrouded you in.

I don't want a woman who is replaceable with any other out there. A thing to warm my bed at night and give me pleasure.

If I wanted that I'd have it.

I wanted someone to share my thoughts with, to talk to, to be my friend.

You're that woman.

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]queenofrohan

I was frightened to marry you.

And you are my friend. My dearest friend. I hope you know that, at least.

Dol Amroth was...harsh to me. It will not be easy to push off the masks I am buried under, Éomer. But if you will be patient with me, I want to.

I want to.

And they will be happy years.
