   Summary

   This is in response to this tumblr post: http://penny-anna.tumblr.com/post/174574951833/penny-anna-boromir-lives-au-where-instead-of

    

   It is in blatant disagreement with both a great deal of LOTR canon and also common sense in our own world, including but not limited to:

   -where to take a pulse
   -whether or not one could sneak in and out of Minas Tirith. (Highly debatable)
   -whether or not inhabitants of Middle earth say the word “fuck”
   -whether or not anyone could actually sneak up to within 20 feet of Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli without them catching it.
   -whether or not one could survive a fall from a massive waterfall: for precedent we may refer to the many wild exploits of people going over Niagara, and Faramir’s account of seeing Boromir’s funeral canoe go past. So, this one is a maybe.

   Please keep this in mind while reading. Also I cannot resist writing stupid jokes, so this is vastly different in tone from the source material. RIP stylistic consistency.
