    Summary

    “Why don’t you come lie down beside me,” Thorin said. “We could have more of this private talk.” He did something funny with his eyebrows; Bilbo thought he was trying to smolder at him seductively. The result was somewhat hampered by the way he was focused at a spot several inches to Bilbo’s left.

    “You have a head wound,” Bilbo reminded him. “This isn’t going to go the way you’re hoping, you ridiculous dwarf.”

    Summary

    What if Bilbo and Thorin met several years before the quest to reclaim Erebor began? Thorin is hurt and Bilbo takes him back to bag-end to help him and feeds him obviously. They managed to strike up a friendship (at least partly because Thorin is less of a prat when he isn’t wearing the mantle of an exiled king)... and then years later the quest begins

    Summary

    The sound of fighting drew him closer. He grunted silently and then slipped without a sound to the orcs advancing on the two dwarfs, one clutching at his shoulder. Bilbo slid forward and then with one swoop, sliced the orcs knees from beneath them. He raised his sword and drew it sharply across the orc’s heads, severing them. The bodies toppled to the ground.

    “What in Mahal’s name …?” The taller dwarf abruptly stopped as Bilbo lifted his gaze, pulling out a dagger. It was discharged and flew into the gap between the dwarf’s head, hitting the last orc that had snuck up on them. The two turned, eyes widened to saucers.

    “Hello.” Bilbo greeted warmly. “I assume the two dwarflings that smacked into me on the road were your nephews?” Bilbo asked as he smoothly threw another knife, kicking upwards. The orc flew through the air and hit a tree with a crack. A dagger lodged him into it by the throat. The majestic looking dwarf nodded and swallowed heavily as Bilbo dispatched the last orc. “Oh, wonderful. I sent them ahead to get some other hobbits to lead them to my home when they told me that you two were left behind. They should hopefully be sat before a fire by now, getting mother henned over by my aunt.”

    Summary

    The earth opened up around him and swallowed him whole, taking away his consciousness and wrapping around him like a warmed blanket. He fell and finally found peace, finally felt hope for the first time in sixty years. As the last of Yavanna's warm caress fell away, Bilbo could just hear the whisper in the air.

    "You will be our salvation, Bilbo Baggins."

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    This time, he would be prepared.

    This time, he would not be the weak line, the liability.

    This time, the line of Durin would not fall but thrive.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    When the day of Gandalf’s arrival finally comes, Bilbo allows himself to sit down on his bench, puffing on his pipe. He closes his eyes, not even looking up when Gandalf’s shadow falls upon him, relishing the distinct feeling of déjà vu.

    He’s finally doing it, finally changing it.

    He cannot wait.
