    Summary

    There's much to say of a Hobbit's wit and courage, more so that they're an exceptionally stubborn race who shall not, under any conditions, admit to another soul that they've fallen ill. Hard work, after all, is not achieved by lounging in bed.

    Feverish with old wounds and the chill of the Forest River, Bilbo Baggins is unceremoniously intercepted in his sickly calm by a dwarven-prince who meets his stubbornness head-for-head . . . a dwarven-prince who has a few things to say about the nature of Hobbits.

    Summary

    Bilbo has lost his memory after getting knocked out in Ravenhill, and is found by Thranduil. He’s taken to Mirkwood, unconscious still, to be treated. Upon waking, he discovers he has no memories of the previous year.

    Unaware of this development, Thorin and his heirs lie recovering from their wounds and confined to bed rest. Free of the gold madness, the King orders them to search for Bilbo, as the brave burglar is still counted among the many who have disappeared during the fight. Despite this, they find no trace of Bilbo before a terrible snowstorm forces them to abandon their task and accept what they believe to be the hobbit's fate.

    The King Under the Mountain mourns and, in the meantime, Bilbo sleeps.

    Summary

    Glancing around the room he’d been led to, he marveled at the stonework and beautiful decorations of the room, even as the dwarf led him to a cot, and he sat down, wrapping the coat tighter around himself. It wasn’t hard to do, the thing was massive on him and he felt like he was drowning in fabric and fur. Altogether the most comfortable he’d been in years.

    An older dwarf bustled into the room, setting things down on a table before coming over to look at him. “Right. What’s happening- they said you were found in the orc camp, eh little halfling?”

    Bilbo bristled at the term, and the older dwarf tried to look him over, poking and prodding at him even as Bilbo tried to swat him away.

    He didn’t want to be looked at, and he wasn’t half of anything!

    Or: After destroying a pack of orcs, crown prince Thorin finds that they'd kept a hobbit slave, whose curse prevents him from speaking.

    This is only the first mystery that this hobbit presents to him.

    Summary

    After the Battle of Five Armies Thorin and Company have a new task: rebuilding their reclaimed home. Suddenly Bilbo finds himself up to his ears in responsibility and he surprises himself with how well he can navigate negotiations with elf dignitaries, farmers in Dale, and a dwarf king who has patience for neither.

    But as Spring approaches a caravan from the Blue mountains brings something everyone had nearly forgotten: the dwarf woman Thorin promised his hand to many years ago.

    Which is fine. It's all fine. It wasn't like Bilbo was falling in love with the king or anything.

    That would be tragic.
