Interesting! I've never been *so* very organised about getting to know a character, but it's certainly fun to look at Aragorn from different angles and different POVs. (Me personally, I always get "nearest" to Aragorn by writing from Legolas' POV. Strangely enough, that works both when I'm writing gen and when I'm writing slash. I think it may be a related tactic to your interview form - maybe version 2.0 or something *g*.)
And for some reason, this story reminded me of "The Owner's Guide and Maintenance Manual". If you don't know it, you should definitely check it out for giggles!
Author's Response: This is the first time I do something like this with a character; mostly I figure them out while writing or by thinking of them. But it was very fun, and I needed it, because I had no idea of how to write Aragorn. Now I just hope I can get all of that together into one character.
That was a hilarious story you linked. I´ve never seen it before but I loved it! Though I would have kept my Aragorn dirty ;) And i can see why this story reminded my of that one, although they´re quite different; I guess they´ve got the same sort of humour.
Thank you for reviewing! :) |
