Faramir and Eowyn: Was Tolkien just pairing off?

[Cazoz]

Well, actually, my dear, "spontanous" relationships usually only succeed in tinging your hangover with regret and nothing more. But I digress.

Lush, I'm not sure if you meant it or not, but please don't patronise me.
I didn't direct any kind of comment at you.
And I spelt 'spontaneous' correctly, thank you.

I'm not sure if Tolkien was completely pairing off, but maybe trying to attain closure for all those left in ME. As you all know, what happened in the West is one of the most contentious topics, but what happened on ME in the Fourth Age is fairly well documented for all of the characters we were familiar with, excepting Legolas and Gimli. But as they went West too, maybe Tolkien wanted to keep up the enigmatic "one does not know any more on this matter" thing.
Of course you bloody know, it's in your head!
