    Summary

    Bilbo does his best to prove that he isn't completely shallow. The Company doesn't seem convinced, for some reason.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    I always love the idea that beauty standards differ from one group to another. Frodo, for example, is elf-pretty, whereas Sam is all that is stunning in a hobbit. And Dwarves like sturdy builds and large blocky features.

    Richard Armitage's face is far too delicate by their standards, of course.

    Summary

    There's a certain point where you can no longer ask someone what their name is. Thorin isn't sure exactly when that point is, but he knows that it's probably some time before the person in question saves your life. On the far side of the Misty Mountains, Thorin realizes that he never quite caught the first part of Mr. Baggins' name, and he finds that it's astonishingly harder to learn than he would have thought. Fili, Kili, and Dwalin are no help whatsoever.

    Hysterically funny and also super cute

    And ABSOLUTELY a thing Thorin might do if he realized at that point he did not know Bilbo's name

    Summary

    From a Hobbitkink prompt:

    The battle was over, and Thorin Oakenshield awoke, naked and shivering, in the Halls of his Ancestors.

    The novelty of being dead fades quickly, and watching over his companions soon fills him with grief and guilt. Oddly, a faint flicker of hope arises in the form of his youngest kinsman, a Dwarf of Durin's line with bright red hair.

    (Follows the story of the War of the Ring).

     

    (Bagginshield, Gimli/Legolas) In which recovery takes time, the dead members of the Company take to watching Gimli as though he’s a soap opera, the living struggle with being left behind, Legolas is confused, Khuzdul is abused, and Thorin is four feet and ten inches of guilt and anger.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    This was GORGEOUS. Beautifully written and well paced, heart-wrenching and heart-warming both, perfectly fitted against canon (and as a bonus, almost EXACTLY the same length; The Hobbit plus the full Lord of the Rings together are 576,459 words, and this is 577,879. That's only 1,420 more!). Which is not to say I don't enjoy an AU, there's a time and a place for most things. But the artistry and the craftsmanship of this are stunning.

    It even has its own appendices, both scattered throughout in the notes and linked in the masterposts! In these appendices, the author CITES SOURCES and clearly delineates which things are from Tolkien and which are the author's own additions. There are translations and lore.

    The known characters are very much in character, the added characters fit right into the world, and the Valar are appropriately intimidating (to everyone but Thorin and Bilbo, apparently).

    I LOVE IT

    Summary

    The golden lamps of the royal dining hall cast a warm, amber glow over the table, but the atmosphere in the corridors of Erebor was far from peaceful. For months, a low-level murmur of dissent had been brewing in the darker corners of the mountain. Most of the kingdom adored their Hobbit Consort, the "Luck-wearer" who had helped reclaim their home. But one particular nobleman, Lord Bruni, a traditionalist with a heart as cold as the stone he mined, could not stand the sight of a Halfling wearing a crown of Mithril. To him, Bilbo Baggins was a soft, power-hungry intruder who had bewitched the King.

    Bruni had decided that the "Hobbit problem" required a permanent solution. He hadn't just used a drop of poison; he had used enough to fell a dragon.

    🎶 They put some poison into his wine

    🎵 He drank it all and he said, "I feel fine"
