Yes, there is weakness, there is frailty. But there is courage also! And honor to be found in men!

Since I’m pretty passionate about this topic here are Random Faramir Facts that amuse me:

Gandalf educated Faramir growing up, which is why Gandalf and him are on such familiar terms in the movies and Denethor calls him a “wizard’s pupil”.

Faramir is actually the one who had the dream that Elrond announces he had in the movies. The reason Boromir was in Rivendell was because of Faramir’s dream.

Both Denethor and Faramir can read minds. Faramir kind of utilizes this by empathising strongly with people.

Faramir is actually 12 years older than Eowyn, but because he’s significantly more Numenorean than she is, his lifespan is longer- adjusted for inflation he matches her age adequately well. 

There are MULTIPLE people in the books with the biggest heart eyes for Faramir. Eowyn is one obviously, and Pippin another, but Aragorn is also very attached to Faramir and a man named Beregond (Faramir’s guard) commits mutiny to save his life. Aragorn has to punish him for it when he becomes king which basically amounted to: “I guess I’ll have to banish you,,, to serve Faramir in Ithilien as his captain of the guard,,, I hope that’s harsh enough,,,,”.

When Faramir kisses Eowyn he does it in front of?? The whole of Gondor?? The text just says “he did not care” like,,, what a man

LOTR just GLOSSES over this but Eomer falls in love with Faramir’s cousin right after Faramir and Eowyn get together when they’re all holed up in Gondor and because Tolkien is MESSY he doesn’t say a thing about it but There Was Probably Drama.

After the war the Gondorians go to Rohan to bury Theoden/announce Faramir and Eowyn’s engagement and they ALL leave afterwards EXCEPT for Faramir and three more people. Subtle.

After LOTR Legolas decides that Friendship with Aragorn is Cancelled, Now Faramir is My Best Friend, and helps him grow flowers in Ithilien. 

Pippin marries a Took called Diamond and they have a son together and they call him Faramir :-)

All the rulers of the fourth age have sons with names beginning with E. Arwen and Aragorn have Eldarion, Lothiriel and Eomer have Elfwine and Faramir and Eowyn have Elboron. I mention this because it’s funny.

Boromir and Elboron’s names are remarkably similar- “Boro(n)” is Sindarin for “steadfast, trusty man, faithful vassal” whereas “Elen” and “Mire” are Quenyan for star and jewel (star and jewel are pretty similar symbolically). It’s not confirmed by Tolkien, but Faramir probably named his son after his brother.

Faramir’s name itself means “sufficient jewel” (vs Boromir’s “steadfast jewel”) because Denethor straight up sucks. 

Faramir lives to be 120 years old- we don’t know how old Eowyn gets but she’s also a lil Numenorean and is significantly younger than Faramir so here’s hoping they were together for a long time. Eomer lives to be 90 years old though!

Since you were robbed of Boromir, I will do what I can in his stead.

[son-of-g0ndor]

So happy for his little bro and instantly loves Eowyn but can’t help feeling like he shouldn’t be the one giving Faramir away..

Someone: Wow, you’re Boromir! Boromir the hero, son of the steward of Gondor!

Boromir: Haha yeah that’s me but have you considered *pulls out 50 professionally done portraits of Faramir* my brother? Faramir? Captain of Gondor, writer of poetry, ranger of the wild? Have you considered—
