    Summary

    There never was much hope that they would all survive the attempt to take back the mountain, but for Fíli’s grin and Kíli’s laugh he would seize whatever chance fate had given him.

    Thorin Oakenshield did not believe in miracles, yet for once he would allow himself to hope.

    Even if, after all was said and done, it was just a fool’s hope.

     

    Thorin wakes up after the Battle of Five Armies the day the company is due to meet their new burglar in Hobbiton. Somehow he must use his knowledge to change their fate, yet secrets and subtlety are not exactly one of his strengths. Thankfully, as always, he has Bilbo Baggins to cover his shortcomings.

    Summary

    So far, by some miracle, everyone was alive. Against all odds, he’d managed to keep things from plummeting too far out of control, despite the way fate seemed intent on toying with him. Now the Mountain draws ever closer, and Thorin Oakenshield must face the very temptation that once utterly destroyed him.

    And if he’s finally admitted to himself that his regard for the company’s resident burglar goes beyond friendship, well, this clearly isn’t the time for such things.

    He may be destined to go down in flames once again, but by Durin’s name, he’d make sure the fire lights up the sky before he burns out.

    Summary

    Bilbo Baggins arrived home late one afternoon in the middle of the week and the entire west Farthing is still talking about it.

    Poor Mister Baggins. He was doomed to be a nine-days wonder no matter what and is it any wonder after a year-long adventure? Even the Tooks haven’t the influence to hush that up, but Mad Baggins seems to have managed to silence every tongue in the Shire on that subject which would be awe-inspiring ...if not for the way he decided to go about it.

    OR: That one where Middle Earth seems to be unclear about where baby Hobbits come from.
