I think it is only appropriate that Arwen's death play in harmony with Aaragorn's. Because her mortality was due to her joining to him, it makes sense that her death be closely entwined.

Even though some may say that Tolkein wasn't a strong writer of romance (me included, at times [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] ), to me the "death" portion of Aragorn's and Arwen's story is done with a poetic stroke that is both wistful and satisfying.
