“  you  act  like  you’ve  never  seen  a  chocobo  before  !  ”  her  hand  slowly  pets  the  large  bird  with  ease.  a  soft  ‘kweh’  erupts  from  the  birds  curved  beak  in  response  happily.  “  they  aren’t  aggressive  ..  unless  you  are  mean  to  them  or  something.  ”

she’s right in this; boromir has never seen a chocobo- they seem a pleasant sort of creature as she speaks, a smile crossing the captain’s face at the peculiar sound. he finds he has no other animal to compare it to- and for the first time in quite a while, he finds that he does not mind not knowing. 

“ i would not dream of acting cruelly to your bird- ” 

boromir is from solitude and is a captain of the imperial legion

he’s just having a real time because there’s so much going on??? he doesnt trust this treaty as far as he can throw it??? 

what he wants is the adjacent of glory of gondor restored 

but why should that involve having to fight with the stormcloaks like hello GET PERSPECTIVE there’s a bigger issue (it’s the thalmor, boromir isn’t dumb he knows exactly what cutting out a huge part of people’s culture can do, and so he gets that the stormcloaks are mad, hell, he’s mad too, but uhhh infighting won’t FIX ANYTHING)
