Granted, I have always had pretty strong synesthesia.
Granted, I'm currently losing my mind with light deprivation as days are incredibly short here this time of the year.
But earlier I knocked over a plant on the carpet, and I didn't feel like taking out the vaccuum cleaner for a small spill of dirt, and decided to try how much I could fix it with just a brush and dust pan.
And the sound of sweeping that carpet with that brush, maaaaaaaaan
I had the sudden very strong impression: that is Éomer's sound. Not that it's a sound that would depict anything about him, horses, sword, armour, voice, anything.
It's just the sound of... him. Somewhat rough, but also smooth, prickly, like the gentlest, most comforting scratchiness ever?
I've been brushing my carpet for a while now, sitting between my grocery bags, listening to the Éomer scratch in the smell of fresh bread, spilled dirt and wet jacket.
