    Summary

    Thorin and Bilbo return to the Shire after thirteen months, no longer the people they once were.

    But beyond elusive poems and secret languages maintaining the faintest distance between them, they’re finally home.

    Summary

    Everything was white

    The snow around him, chilling his fingers, the sky above him, and rocks that cradled his body-

    The ringing in his ears-
    The pounding in his skull-
    Oh gods what happened?
    He groaned, trying to sit up, but even behind the darkness behind his eyelids the world spun. Spun so fast his stomach revolted against such motions even though there was nothing to expel. He tried to think back on how he managed to end up like this. He remembered the ramparts, the approaching enemy of four different armies-
    He remembered fighting goblins-
    He remembered Azog-
    He remembered Bilbo-

    Summary

    "Oh, my dear Frodo, my dear boy how could I have let him go off just like that! With my terrible, cursed ring?!"

    His feet stumble on the carpet and Thorin lurches forward to grasp the halfling by the shoulder. He's gentle, worried that he may snap the frail Bilbo in two if he pulls him back too hard. There's a stuttered sigh and Bilbo eases back into the taller dwarf; Thorin can remember a time where the hobbit's head would be held at least as high as his shoulder, but at one-hundred-and-twenty-eight, the halfling now bowed lowly at the breastplate of his shining, royal armour.

    "Easy, ghivashel," he says softly to him, and cautiously turns the hobbit so he can look him directly in those remarkable honey-brown eyes, "I will follow their trail and make sure that no harm comes to the boy."

    Bilbo sniffs. "You will keep an eye on Frodo?"

     

    "You have my word."

     

    (Bagginshield, in which King Thorin II is unknowingly the father to the plant-grown dwobbit Frodo Baggins. After years away from one another, Thorin returns at an ageing Bilbo's bidding to go after Frodo on his journey to destroy the One Ring and see that he is safe and brought home.)

    Summary

    In a mountain, standing like a knife against the eastern sky, there lived a hobbit.

    Not a cold, draughty crypt of a mountain, filled with cries of the dead and pain of the living, nor yet a new-born colony, striking out its place in the world. It was Erebor, and Bilbo Baggins had made the choice to remain six months prior, after the Battle of the Five Armies had solidified the Kingdom as one to be respected once more.

    Something in his pocket began to stir.

    Or: Bilbo Baggins discovers The One Ring. Everyone has a bad time.

    Summary

    Summary

    There are several things that the dwarves don't know about the hobbit that is traveling with them. Things that Bilbo is glad to let them find out for themselves along the way.

    The first is that he's prepared for anything. His mother used to quiz him about what he'd do in any situation - from relatives to trolls - and Bilbo never disappointed her with his answers. Riding a pony all day gives him plenty of time to plan for everything.

    The second is that he can throw a stone or any other small object hard enough to embed it several inches into a tree trunk. His accuracy is uncanny even by Shire standards. He's quite proud of it.

    The third is that he doesn't actually say so many proverbs when at home but it seems to annoy the dwarves so he spends time thinking up all the ones he's heard before.

    And last, hobbits scold like it is no one's business. The Dwarves he's traveling with really have no idea what will happen if they truly piss him off.

    Summary

    Thorin Oakenshield wakes. The air is cold, clinging to his skin in an unpleasant way. He reaches for his sword, the memory of his defeat still fresh in his mind.

    In the distance shines the familar light of Bag End, where Bilbo Baggins is desperately trying to understand why the battlefield around him faded to the comfort of his home, the calendar mocking his attempts at making sense of the situation.

    Both of them try to navigate the violent jump back in time as best as they can, but getting in each other's way of diverting fate causes more trouble than any of them could expect. It is a lonely feat, changing the past – unless, amidst all the chaos, they manage to understand each other again.

    Summary

    Bilbo returned to the Shire scorned and with little to show for his grand adventure. He barely managed to keep all his things from being auctioned off and was able to track down all the things that had. Honestly, he just wants to start off his spring and the new year peacefully.

    He does not have time for dwarves, even the ones who are there to beg for his forgiveness.

    Summary

    “–Come Durin’s Day, the Mountain will host great entertainments, games, and feasting in your name and in the names of the other thirteen of the Company. Your path through all of Arda shall be made smooth to ensure your welcome in our lands, Bilbo Baggins. I bring this summons as it was sent from the Throne of Thorin, King Under the Mountain.”

    Bilbo’s heart, racing as it had been from this thrilling invitation, seemed to trip over itself at the name. “Thorin?” he whispered, and he stepped forward without thinking.

    --

     

    Or: Bilbo learns that his story isn’t actually a tragedy, and that happy endings still take a bit of luck.

    Summary

    A comic adaptation of the Hobbit.

    Bilbo has always struggled to tell the "true" story of what happened on his journey to the Lonely Mountain. Now, he's trying to retell his adventures as a bright happy children's book for his young nephew Frodo.

    But is he telling the full truth? And are there things that he's leaving out?

    (I'm taking the interpretation that Tolkien's 'translation; of the Red Book of Westmarch was only a translation of one of various copies made of the book throughout the centuries, and that I am 'translating' a different version of the text with the help of different primary sources! Which is why our descriptions of the events may differ.)

    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.

    Summary

    Silco felt wrath, pride, and respect battle within him as he witnessed the small band of Firelights—only 5 members strong, and not much older than children judging by their size—decimate his men and destroy yet another shipment of shimmer. Thousands of gold cogs wasted, money that would have been used to build his empire until it could stand against Piltover's council, and yet as he watched the green streaks through the sky, he couldn't help but think these Firelights were Zaunite to their core. These young rebels embodied the spirit of Zaun almost as much as his own daughter, Jinx.

    He glanced down at her now, only to pause at the still expression on her face. Her gaze tracked one of the masked figures unerringly—the leader, if Silco was reading their dynamics right—eyes just a bit too wide, and her fingers twitched by her side. He'd seen her get like this before, when she was confronted with her past.

    She knows him.

    An idea begins to take shape in Silco's mind.

    Or: Silco wants to recruit the Firelights. Too bad they hate his guts.
