They are young, if no longer innocent, and Faramir is tomorrow to leave for Ithilien. It isn't the first time they've been apart, but it is, perhaps, one of the more final - now, Faramir too will put his life on the line for Gondor, and perhaps it will be many months or even years before they are able to do more than write letters to each other, with Faramir in Ithilien and Boromir still in Minas Ithil.
Earlier, there had been celebrations, the current batch of recurits enjoying their final night here. But now it's just the two of them, and Faramir bites his lip.
"I will miss you, brother." He says quietly. "Promise you'll write."
"Of course, I will write brother," Boromir says, resting his hand on the other's shoulder. It is difficult to think of how long they might be parted from one another.
