I can just see it now.

*Aragorn passes a chicken-suited guy on the corner of the street.*

CSG: "Hey, free chicken samples."

*Aragorn is about to wave him off, but he suddenly stops. A faint glimpse of recognition passes over his face and he gazes up into the chicken mask.*

Aragorn: (surprised beyond words) "B-Boromir?!"

Boromir: "Don't you say a word or I'll make sure the bloodline of Isildur fades out real quick...."

How 'bout:

Éomer: Tour guide.

Airehiriel · 04-28-2003, 12:44 PM

Good one Rynoah!

Or how about Eomer as a mechanic along side Gimli?
