    Summary

    This is a complete redo of both the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings series. Here, Bilbo was banished from Erebor but learned of the true power of the Ring. His decision to carry it to Mordor changes, well, everything.

    This is the story of how he does it, what becomes of the original company, how those who were meant to be kings will rise to their thrones, and how love, ultimately, conquers darkness and evil.

    And then there are the stories of what comes after the great battles have been fought.

    Primary relationships: Bilbo/Thorin, Legolas/Kili, Dwalin/Ori, Fili/Dernwyn (OC), Aragorn/Arwen.

    Summary

    King Thorin II of Erebor has never taken a spouse, and rumors abound that his heart was once broken by someone he has never been able to get over. Thorin insists that he is perfectly happy focusing on his kingdom and family.

    Professor Bilbo Baggins of Hobbiton College has made quite a name for himself as a scholar of Hobbit history and the relations between his own race and the others of Middle Earth. He is quite content to live out his days quietly with his books and his research, not catching anyone's attention and certainly not having any more adventures, of the heart or otherwise.

    A ten-day academic conference at Erebor University might change all that.

    Summary

    Bilbo Baggins doesn't fit in in the Shire. He's not a normal hobbit. That doesn't bother him.

    Having his warnings ignored? Trying to help those who will not help themselves?

    That bothers him.

    Summary

    [Sequel to How to Be a Superhero Love Interest] While out one night in New York, MJ is saved by a man in a mask - not in itself unusual, except for the fact that she's not dating this one.

    Peter is affronted at not being the only masked idiot to save MJ's life - until he meets Daredevil, and the two start to get on like a house on fire. Or more like a trainwreck that crashed into a house on fire, then jumped out, bleeding, from a fourth-storey window, limped away and is insisting that it's fine, MJ, honestly, it's just a scratch and some third-degree burns.

     

    Superheroes.

    Summary

    "Burn the land and boil the sea, you can't take the sky from me."

    Erebor is ash, its people dispersed across the Verse. The Alliance has become weak, and more and more planets fall to the Orcs whilst they look away.

    Thorin has a crew, but no ship. A kingdom, but no key. And a destination, but no idea how to get there without being eaten by Orcs or busted by the Alliance.

    Things ain't exactly going smooth.

    ******

    All credit to Tolkien and PJ for the Hobbit characters, and all credit to Whedon for the Verse I am currently pillaging.

    This is my first published fic. Be gentle.

    Summary

    Thorin Oakenshield slowly wakes to the sounds of Bilbo and his nephews talking softly, colder and heavier than he has ever been in his life, but before he can get a word out Bilbo is punching him square on the nose. Quite rightly, as it turns out, because he's been dead for a week and has just sat up in his tomb with no warning whatsoever.

    Following the aftermath of the Battle of the Five Armies where Thorin must fight with his own guilt and mind over his choices and what they mean and meant, where he must decide whether or not to rule, and how to live with himself after dying. Focusing on many different characters and relationships, as well as building on the lore of Erebor and Middle Earth. A story about coming home.

    Summary

    “Of course it has to be Gandalf.” Bilbo mutters, “I couldn’t just have some other wizard visit me.”


    Not that he’d be happier with any of the other wizards visiting him at all. If Saruman had appeared on his doorstep he’d die of fright. In the shire a saying had become popular after Belladonna Took had run off with the wizard and returned three days late for her wedding some months later: Where Gandalf went there would be trouble.


    (Or the one where Bilbo is a dragon and still gets roped into reclaiming Erebor, Gandalf is a meddling Wizard, and Bilbo may have confusing feelings for Thorin Oakenshield)

    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

    The facts of the matter were made very clear to Thor; he was to wed Midgard’s strongest warrior in order to obtain peace between the Realm’s.

    It was both an olive branch...and the arrow with which the Realm’s held one another at bay.

    It was a statement.

    “Know our strength intimately, and if there should come a time of war, know he and we will have no qualms striking like a snake in the grass.”

    Where does one go for help when one is the anthropomorphic personification of death, and having problems with one's love--for lack of a better word--life?

    Maybe not the Avengers.

    Probably not the Avengers?

    No, definitely not the Avengers.

    Eh. Let's go ask the Avengers.

    Summary

    Steve Rogers thinks one Wade Wilson is lonely (true). Steve Rogers thinks one Wade Wilson would get along pretty well with the rest of the Avengers (also true). Steve Rogers thinks introducing one Wade Wilson to the Avengers will work out just fine (debatable).

    TL;DR: In case you decided to skip the author's boring summary, I basically get to live in the Avengers Tower for a week. I'm on my best behavior, promise! ...what? Oh come on, I barely even got to say anything! Fine. Spoilsport.

    (Or: In which Wade and Tony get along way too well, Steve has the most pathetic crush on Bucky, Natasha and Clint aren't great matchmakers but get an A for effort, Bruce and Thor think romance is overrated, and there's a hypocritical swear jar. And while all this is happening, something is bubbling right below the surface.)
