Boromir stepped back to inspect his work. Yes, that would do nicely.
He picked up his walkie-talkie. "Faramir! How're you doing at your end?"
There was a pause, then Faramir's voice came through the radio. "It's…um, okay."
"Well?" Boromir asked, bouncing on his toes. "Details, I want details!"
"I painted Fury," [Fury was Faramir's jousting horse-What? You didn't know Faramir jousted? Hey, when your father is steward of Gondor, you do a lot of things that you don't exactly want to do.]
"…And I painted Fred-" [his frog] "-and Fatima-" [cat] "-and Frank-" [mouse] "-and Fran." [Tarantula]
[Yeah, Faramir had this thing about his pets having names that started with the same letter his name started with.]
"What? You didn't paint me? Me, Boromir, the big cheese of the week?"
"Well, I already painted you on the other wall, so I figured-"
"No, no, no! There should be a picture of me on every wall in Gondor! Go to it!"
"But-"
"No 'buts' about it! It's almost dawn, and people will see us!"
"So maybe we should stop!"
"Never!" Boromir thundered. "Repeat after me, bro: we are overachievers!"
"Boromir…"
"Just say it!"
There was a sigh, and, after a pause, a mumbled "we are overachievers".
"Good! Now start believing it!"
He clicked off his walkie-talkie before Faramir could protest.
He sighed contentedly. Ah, it was good to have a brother he could boss around.
SORRY THIS CHAPTER'S SO SHORT!
