"I twitch somewhat violently at all the "silver orbs" floating around the fandom in regards to Aragorn's eyes."
XD I've noticed the "silver orbs" phenomenon, too. Hard to balance these things, eh? I haven't read any Forester in a while (I just ordered "Lieutenant Hornblower" from the library), so it's good to know it's perfectly in keeping with his style to pause and describe Bush's eyes. Now I can do so without compunction, and feel that I am only being very mindful of canon. *bg*
"Fangirling does have its place, after all. *g*"
Absolutely! I agree most heartily. Silly, fun, fangirly conversation can spawn the most wonderful ideas. :D
