    Summary

    Hobbits and dwarves are very different to each other in plenty of ways.

    Bilbo would quite like to learn more about his travelling companions, but they seem to have gotten the idea first.

    Summary

    After the last near "tragedy" (or so the dwarves are calling it, Bilbo's about done with them), Bilbo doesn't cut his hair and instead lets it go long. Except now, now he's almost home, his dwarves insisting on escorting him back, and he's got long hair he doesn't know what to do with.

    When Thorin offers to braid his hair, Bilbo reluctantly agrees, if just to have something to remember the dwarf by.

    Except it doesn't do Thorin any favors. Bilbo was already attractive enough, and now there are braids. In his hair.

    And if Fili and Kili don't stop snickering, Thorin's content to return to Erebor without his heirs.

    Prompt fic. One-shot. Sort of.

    Summary

    After weeks of waiting at Thorin's bedside, Bilbo begins to carve out a place for himself among the people of Erebor, earning their admiration despite his lingering doubts about staying. When Thorin finally awakens, he discovers that his burglar has not only remained steadfast by his side but has also become beloved by the dwarves. Battling his own shame and fear, Thorin must find the courage to show Bilbo that Erebor can be his home - and that Thorin’s heart has always been his.

    Summary

    Take a dragon and get rid of it, take a Kingdom under the Mountain and let it thrive under Thráin’s rule, take the King’s eldest son - as proud and arrogant as you can picture him - and then send him to the Shire in order to refine his diplomatic skills. Or, as his sister puts it: to grow them at last. Now, throw in the Master of Bag End playing host for the dwarf prince: you’ll get a clash of cultures, an ill-advised bet about educating a certain hobbit in the dwarf-lore, and all the pride and prejudice business you could hope for, plus Khuzdul.

    A retelling inspired by My Fair Lady.

    Summary

    “–Come Durin’s Day, the Mountain will host great entertainments, games, and feasting in your name and in the names of the other thirteen of the Company. Your path through all of Arda shall be made smooth to ensure your welcome in our lands, Bilbo Baggins. I bring this summons as it was sent from the Throne of Thorin, King Under the Mountain.”

    Bilbo’s heart, racing as it had been from this thrilling invitation, seemed to trip over itself at the name. “Thorin?” he whispered, and he stepped forward without thinking.

    --

     

    Or: Bilbo learns that his story isn’t actually a tragedy, and that happy endings still take a bit of luck.
