    Summary

    “Yes, yes.” Balin strokes a hand down his beard, still distracted, and then abruptly says, “Say, laddie, do you really need five vases?”

    “I—erm,” says Bilbo. “I suppose not?"

    Or: Several dwarves keep pilfering Bilbo's home, apparently on Thorin's command. He isn't quite sure why.

    Summary

    Once Bilbo has ambled off, Fíli turns to Kíli, who’s still crunching away at his apple unconcernedly. “… He was just joking, right?”

    “Of course he was,” Kíli dismisses. “He’s Bilbo, the sharpest mind in the entire Company. It’s not like he could have missed the fact that Uncle’s been courting him since the end of the Battle. He’s just having us on!”

    Or:

    In which Bilbo is getting slightly exasperated with the fact that no one will tell him why he has such a big role in Thorin's wedding, what he is supposed to be doing there, and who Thorin's betrothed is. And is also a little confused about why the thought of Thorin marrying someone else bothers him so much.

    Summary

    For as long as Frodo could remember, his beloved Uncle Bilbo was known around the Shire for his shocking habit of disappearing for long periods of time. Bilbo never told anybody where he was going or when he expected to be back, and didn't seem to care what other people thought of such disrespectable inconstancy.
