Summary
The Arbiter's initial studies of human culture didn't happen after the Great Schism; he's figured out things about their species through long observation and plenty of patience. He'll acknowledge their new alliance gives him plenty of resources to fall back on when he doesn't understand something. Frankly, he doesn't get a LOT of the customs these people have.
But it's good to increase his knowledge: as a curious Sangheili, he has many burning questions, ones he's harbored for years that ought to be answered at long last. There's only one problem he's got no hope of fixing.
See, he REALLY wishes he could figure out if this 'bond' with his enemy-turned-ally is purely platonic, or he's instigated a serious courtship between them. Chief is being rude in not clearing up the matter but then again, the Arbiter is kind of shitty at clarifying what his questions are.
Misunderstanding is in plenty but were it so easy to understand one another's intentions, then they'd never learn how to become each other's equal.

A Different Evil Altogether by mitsukai613 for ghostdreaming

Summary
Smaug didn't particularly want Erebor anymore, really; it had become very dull indeed by the end of the first few years. He'd have probably left decades ago, were it not for the insufferable, nameless wizard who spared his life only so he could bind him to the fortress and have him guard the evil within. Bilbo learns of this, or at least part of it, shortly after he sends the rest of the Company tumbling out of the elven fortress at Mirkwood in the barrels. Now the only matter is telling the dwarves that Smaug literally can't be killed, or so he believes. Smaug, however, knows the real trouble; the stirring of whatever evil he's meant to guard has awoken him, and powerful though he is, he's unsure if he can stand against it.
