    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

    just fuck around and find out, i guess

    (Dream of the Endless is the entirety of the human subconscious distilled, and as such, Dream is very used to knowing what people want. There are wrinkles when Hob, most perfect of beings, doesn't want anything, in particular. This is a character study focusing on a particular flavor of trans hesitance regarding the physical body, using Dream as a vessel.)

    Summary

    “Yes,” he says. “But—humans, do you have it where you are hungry, and you only remain hungry so long, and then you stop being hungry?” His blue eyes meet Hob’s brown ones, and it feels as though they hold a memory between them of Hob at the old inn, wolfing down food. Do you know how hungry you can get when you can’t die?

    “And then it comes back,” Hob says. An unpleasant feeling gnaws at his gut, not unlike the sensation of hunger itself. “But yes, it comes and goes.”

    His friend nods. “I have found that after…some time, it is no longer a unique sensation.”

    “What does that mean?”

    “Do you feel your skin, Hob Gadling? Your bones?”

    “No,” he says.

    “Hunger, too, can be a part of you,” he says.
