    Summary

    Bilba Baggins has already done this once—survived a dragon, dwarves, and one particularly broody king. But after an old, tired life in the Shire, she wakes up to find herself back at the start of her journey, young and stubborn as ever.

    This time, she’s writing everything down. This time, she’s making better decisions (probably). This time, she will make sure the line of Durin lives and that Frodo never gets his sweet hands on that blasted ring. And this time, she’s definitely not falling in love with Thorin Oakenshield again.

    …Right?

    Armed with a sharp tongue, handkerchiefs, and the exasperation of a grandmother wrangling a bunch of overgrown, bearded children, Bilba is determined to do things her way. Even if that means scolding dwarves, outmaneuvering Thranduil, and figuring out just what is going on with this new, stranger version of Middle-earth.

    Because if she has to do this all over again, she’s going to do it right.

    Summary

    Katara deserves more and she knows it. For two years she has been living at the Southern Air Temple helping Aang to bring back the Air Nation, but she feels parts of herself slipping away. Already, people are forgetting what she has sacraficed, her culture is moving on without her, and her friends have all found peace with their roles in this new world but she hasn't. Katara decides she needs to find herself again which prompts her to begin traveling the world and writing letters to her friends that she's speant too much time without. She is drawn to a certain firebender and the memories surrounding him, what will she find when she gives in to these thoughts?

    Post-cannon story with some cannon events retold from Katara's perspective, slight cannon divergence (the events of the show takes place over 3 years, not 6 months), and an extreme slowburn. I mostly just was justice for my girl Katara and what happened to her post-cannon.

    Summary

    Bella has felt trapped by the tight constraints of Hobbit society and her family ever since her parents died. But as her magic grows stronger day by day, there is a herd of Dwarrow who would be more than happy to take her, in exchange for some help with their pest problem.

    It's a simple deal, really. She steals their home back for them. They steal her from her home.

    That's all there is to it, of course, because nothing could happen when stuck in close quarters for 8 months. Especially when there's magic involved.

    --Formerly--

    Bella doesn't know why she expected to be able to live a quiet life. She didn't particularly want a quiet life, she was more in the habit of it than anything else. So when a wizard shows up on her doorstep and a bunch of dwarves brings her a quest that she has particularly good skills to accomplish, well...Habits are made to be broken...Right?

    Summary

    “It sounds to me, Thorin son of Thrain, like you need a burglar.” Gandalf suppressed the grin that threatened to overtake his face.

    “I suppose you have one you’d like to recommend.” The King raised a brow.

    “There is one who has done a great many tasks for me over the years.” Gandalf thought of how best to introduce her. “A Hobbit. One with much experience with these kinds of tasks.”

    The King hummed confirmation.

    Now Gandalf just had to go find the blasted girl.

    -------

    Faced with dwarven law, Belladonna finds herself agreeing to a different kind of contract to join to quest for Erebor.
