    Summary

    It was a truth universally acknowledged to all within Erebor and its surrounding lands that Dwalin and Nori of Thorin’s Company could not stand the sight of each other. They fought and bickered each and every time their paths crossed like a feral cat and a baited dog.
    But a truth slightly more obscured than that, lounging just to the left of what could be handily observed, was the notion that hate probably didn’t describe this at all.

    In which Thorin and Bilbo are hypocrites, Dwalin and Nori are oblivious, and the entire Company (plus Dís) are shipper trash.

    Or: the most ill-advised romance Erebor has ever seen, featuring all the gratuitous little Austen-isms you have always craved in a Hobbit fic!
    Half Nwalin, half Bagginshield.

    Summary

    Bilbo and Thorin had been working together for years before Thorin gathered the nerve to ask Bilbo out. There is something holding their relationship from moving forward though, until they find a common ground.

    A date on the Southbank with the echo of several previous dates and a grand finale, that seems but the start of a long journey.
