Éowyn flinched in surprise.
Faramir captured the book just before it landed on the ground, then sat beside his wife and turned the book to read its title.
“‘Finduilas’ lament’ – from my mother’s library. How do you like it?”
She blushed. “It’s... interesting.”
Faramir laughed. “One of my few memories of my mother is her exasperation as well-meaning people kept giving her books about her famous name-sake as presents. Particularly as she did not like the story.”
“Neither do I.” She began kissing him. “But I do like... this...”
The book dropped again, unregarded this time.
