''[[http://archiveofourown.org/works/3746424/chapters/8311707 The Captain and the King]]'' is a ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings'' AlternateUniverseFic by plasticChevy, based on the premise: ''WhatIf Saruman thought Aragorn had the Ring?'' Rather than hobbits, he instructs his forces to capture Men, and as such, Boromir survives Amon Hen- but blinded and in enemy hands. He and a wounded Aragorn get put through hell together, first by the Uruks and then by Saruman, while Merry, Pippin, Legolas and Gimli track them across Rohan. And ''then'' we get the ''[[ForWantOfANail consequences]]'' of Boromir's survival... This fic was removed when Henneth Annun removed its fanfics without warning.

* HoYay: The canon is rather notorious for ''its'' HoYay, so it's basically inevitable if you want to write OriginalFlavor. The Merry/Boromir is especially intense- Boromir sleeps better when Merry's around, and at one point Aragorn compares their relationship to his with ''[[OfficialCouple Arwen]]'', albeit purely in the context of [[spoiler:being separated]].



* RonTheDeathEater: ''Not'' a gratuitous or mean-spirited version; [[spoiler:Halbarad]] does what he does (from an out-of-story perspective, that is) because ''somebody'' in the heroes' camp needed to cause some trouble, and an OC would have had much less emotional impact.



* WellIntentionedExtremist: Most of the [[spoiler:anti-Boromir faction]] aren't even particularly extreme so much as people who honestly disagree with the protagonists' decision. [[spoiler:Imrahil comes to the edge of the proverbial [[JumpingOffTheSlipperySlope slippery slope]] but checks himself. Halbarad... not so much.]]

Removed per TRS.


* HandicappedBadass: Boromir is a low-key example, in that his blinding ''has'' made him much less effective in a fight. But he was ''so'' {{Badass}} to begin with that he still very much qualifies.
