Good ones, Helen.

Boromir's swordsfighting tutorials for the hobbits has been already mentioned. So was his death, with Merry and Pippin screaming in vain. But who could have forgotten his final conversation with Aragorn, right before he died? The words he uttered were not only for a comrade, a brother, a captain, or a king...but also for a friend.

TTT:

Legolas looking over the cliff after Aragorn fell, and the bewildered look in his eyes when Theoden said, "Leave the dead."

"Shall I describe it to you? Or would you like me to find you a box?"
"Hehehe."

RotK:

"I never imagined fighting alongside an Elf."
"How about fighting alongside a friend?"

*scattered sniffles*

Now that I look at it, the friendship between Gimli and Legolas stood out the most for me. After all, this one is out of the ordinary. Such can be expected from the hobbits, but not from two individuals whose races had a longstanding disagreement. It's amazing how adversities can change people.
