    Summary

    Izzy Hands wished that fucking bullet had just ended it, most days. There are worse fates than dying in battle, after all.

    No longer sea-worthy, he leaves the Revenge, and his bleak, unexpectedly long life stretches out like a curse in front of him: cold, hungry, bitter, and alone. Forgotten.

    Stede and Ed, however, have softer plans for him.

    Summary

    “Why, I remember you once tried to steal the pipe right out of my pocket,” Gandalf said with fond amusement.

    Oh, now that just wouldn’t do. If the wizard was going to bring up the old days, he could at least tell the stories correctly. Bilbo’s pride would accept nothing else. “And I quite succeeded, as you damn well know,” he said haughtily. “It’s hardly my fault you can’t go a minute without it and were already trying to pull it out again before I could leave the room!”

    The wizard’s only response to this was a neutral hum.

    “Wait,” said Thorin, holding up a hand. “So are you a burglar, or aren’t you?”

    “I’m retired is what I am!” Bilbo snapped. “And I have no intention of getting back in the business, certainly not for this mad quest that is going to get everyone on it killed!”

    Summary

    Gandalf looked around impatiently. “Where is my hobbit? I hope you have not damaged him.”

    “I’m here,” called Bilbo. He stood with the young princes a fair distance from the dais, so he waved to get Gandalf’s attention. Smaug, who was draped around his neck, let out an indignant puff of smoke at the disturbance.

    Gandalf’s bushy eyebrows shot up and a smile spread across his face. “Indeed, here you are—and full of surprises, as I rather expected, Bilbo Baggins!”

    Summary

    It was sheer chance when Bilbo thought back on it. What if he’d stayed home? What if someone else had run up the lane before him?

    But it was him. It was him and it was Kíli, and Bilbo wouldn’t change it for the world.

    *

    Long ago, a dwarf child was lost and found in a storm by Bilbo Baggins. He has no idea where his young ward came from; all attempts to find Kíli's family failed. Sticking together, they make do and it's a peaceful life.

    Until Gandalf arrives with talk of adventure. Until the Company of Thorin Oakenshield arrives on their doostep.

    Or: Kíli's a missing prince. Bilbo's not about to let his (son) ward face a dragon without him.

    Summary

    Bilbo Baggins was born with the gift (or curse) to see things no mortal should.

    And yet Arda insists on placing its weight in his hands: threads of fire and shadow, dragons and crowns, love and loss. Guided by the Blue Lady, showing and protecting him from what is coming. Shielding himself from futures that threaten to break him.
    As darkness gathers and forces older than memory move against Middle-earth, Bilbo chooses to stand in their way.

    But first, he must help his beloved dwarves reclaim their home from a dragon—while keeping them, and himself, alive in the process. As his love for Thorin Oakenshield deepens, so too does the burden of the truth Bilbo cannot share.

    Because no one can know.

    Especially Thorin.

    Because if Thorin ever learns the truth—

    He will die.

    Summary

    Bilbo Baggins was ready to die. He'd sailed to the West, left Middle-earth behind — and carried a grief that had never faded.
    But the Valar offer him one final gift: a single night back in Bag End, at the very start. One last chance to see Thorin and the Company, to remember what was lost.
    He doesn't expect Thorin to look at him like that.
    He doesn't expect it to hurt this much.
    And he certainly doesn’t expect morning to come.

    Summary

    “No communication issues?” Thorin repeated, looking at the hobbit now with even more uncertainty. “You didn’t think to tell me that this hobbit only spoke his own language?”

    “A minor setback, really,” the wizard said, waving off the dwarf’s concerns with a smile. He squeezed Bilbo’s shoulder before clearing his throat. “Young Master Baggins, here, is the son of one of the Shire’s most proficient Westron speakers. He was exposed to the language as a child, although he hasn’t had much use for it in his lifetime so his skills have, understandably, diminished. But I have no doubt that, given the opportunity to learn, he would pick it up quite quickly. He is a clever fellow if I’ve ever known one.”

    (OR: Thorin needs a burglar, Bilbo needs a dictionary, and Gandalf needs a drink.)

    Summary

    Enemies to Lovers. Rivals to Partners.

    Stede “The Gentleman Skater” Bonnet has always been figure skating’s golden boy, elegant, refined, and unshakably proper.

    Edward “Blackbeard” Teach the bad boy of figure skating, sex on the ice. Brash, leather-clad, and one pyrotechnic away from arson charges.

    When a brawl between them at the World Championships ends with an international broadcast meltdown and a beloved mascot accidentally set on fire, both men are banned from competition and disgraced in the eyes of the skating world.

    3 and a half years later redemption comes knocking in the most humiliating way possible, two men skating in pair's skating. Two fallen singles stars forced to share one rink, one dream, and very little personal space.

    What begins as spite turns into undeniable chemistry as they train, fight, and fall, sometimes literally, toward the impossible. They have to face the Von Rackhams who won't let them compete in pairs figure skating so easily.

    Summary

    Many perished in the battle of the five armies but one stood above all else. One of the company of Thorin Oakenshield had fallen, one that had been marked a traitor only to be proven the strongest and bravest of them all. Stricken with grief and pain, Thorin disregards the potential backlash for laying a non-dwarf to rest in Erebor and gives Bilbo an honorable dwarven funeral.

    However, when horror struck, it rattled the very stone around them. Everyone thinks that it is the result of divine retribution...but Mahal truly does love his wife and her beloved children.

    Summary

    When one left their wife and declared that they were gay, certain expectations tended to follow. Expectations that said person would get a boyfriend rather than show up to every party alone, for example.

    So Stede had fibbed a little. For the last two months, he’d had an extremely handsome and kind boyfriend who was also extremely busy. The lie worked well, until he ran into Mary in the grocery store and accidentally said he was shopping with his boyfriend. Stede grabbed the first guy he saw by his leather-clad arm.

    “I’ll buy your groceries for a month if you pretend to be my boyfriend,” Stede whispered in the guy's ear. He hauled the guy around to face Mary and Doug.

    “What the fu—“ Grocery Store Guy started to say, but Stede stomped on his foot to shut him up.

    (In which Stede needs a fake boyfriend, and Izzy gets dragged into the chaos)

    Summary

    The last thing Izzy remembered was getting shot and dying, quite painfully. At least he was pretty certain he remembered that happening. So when he woke back up on the deck of the Revenge he was all but convinced he'd landed in his own personal hell.
    ___________________________

    Or, Izzy gets flung back in time after dying, becuase what better way for the universe to say "fuck you" than to make him relive all his worst days aboard Bonnets ship. The crew hate him at present. And damn it all, he can't even blame them for it.

    But maybe things can go differently this time.

    Fuck Bonnet and his fucking "talk it through" philosophy, look at him! He's grown a conscience! And all that's ever done for Izzy is get him Dead!
