Summary
Written in response to a prompt by thotinshield on Tumblr:
"my brain is filled with au where thorin is considered unattractive by dwarven standards, bilbo thinks hes handsome, and is pining after him, but thorin is in the classic situation of having to get married and dealing with lots of suitors and theres a bit in there about bilbo hearing some of the dwarrowdams gossiping about how thorin is "ugly" and bilbo being like WHAT"
Erebor needs a queen, and Thorin is set to marry a dwarrowdam to be his consort. No matter how much it breaks his heart, Bilbo takes it upon himself to ensure Thorin only receives the best and decides to scope out the candidates. Everything goes well, and he finds one that looks promising, until he uncovers a rather disturbing fact about the crop of potential consorts.

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
Hamilton is staring at him straight on, unashamed, eyes glinting. “Alexander Hamilton, at your service. I think it be a pleasure to make your acquaintance.”
Laurens hesitantly closes his hand around Hamilton’s and shakes, once, then withdraws. “John Laurens, at yours. And likewise, I should hope.”As a small, teasing smirk starts to creep over Hamilton’s face, and a fiery amusement steals into his eyes, Laurens thinks:
This can only end badly.In other words, the author is a sucker for canon era Hamilton/Laurens (and isn't sorry)
