Summary

.
"Smaug owes allegiance to no one, but if he should side with the Enemy... a dragon could be used to terrible effect,"
-Gandalf the Gray
.
A different first encounter between Bilbo and Smaug changes the course of history, and an unlikely friendship conspires to redraw the map of Middle Earth.
---
an excerpt from 'An Unexpected Friend'
---
Smaug looked at the creature he'd caught. What a tiny thing it was! Even smaller than the dwarves, and much lighter of step. Had it not been holding a beacon while rifling through his gold, Smaug would hardly have noticed it.
But here it was, and the dragon was careful not to crush the tiny thing in his grasp.
"Here you are," Smaug rumbled, opening his hand.
Inside it was a creature he had never seen before, but upon closer inspection, one he knew immediately in his heart as kin. The creature carried within it something Smaug hadn't encountered in ages: the touch of the Green Lady.
A fellow child of Yavanna, after all these years.
"Hello,"

Summary
“Well, of course!” Master Baggins spoke his observations in such a factual manner. “Handsome beards on the line of Durin indeed. Surely, I’d only look all the more foolish sitting next to you.”
Thorin blinked and felt heat rush up beneath his cheeks. Prayed to Mahal that his humble beard might survive the sudden praise. For again, he had always wished that Master Baggins might find him attractive in spite of his less than suitable beard, but here was Master Baggins ever the Unexpected. And here he was dolling out such lovely compliments.
“Not his beard,” Dwalin let out with a mirthful scoff. “It’s not any better than Kíli’s.”
“Oh, nonsense!” Master Baggins furrowed his brow. “You mean to tell me that you dwarves consider it unattractive to groom one’s beard so short?”

Summary
“I win.” It was now Thorin who said it.
“I’d say it’s more of a stalemate, wouldn’t you? A tie?” Bilbo said nervously. He stared, becoming increasingly aware of the strong legs that trapped his own and the shrinking space between him and Thorin. One of his hands moved from the hilt of Sting to the wrist of the shadow above him.
“There must be a winner. One can’t get their spoils without a winner.”

Summary
*wakes up in cold sweat* what if BILBO was the emotionally distant one???
“Right so, courting went badly. He tried to–” began Dwalin.
“Yes exactly! But I didn’t fall for it!” said Bilbo.
“Then you do not like him?”
“Of course I do!”Bilbo is thoroughly disoriented when Thorin starts treating him as a friend, after weeks of quite explicit hostility. Even more when he cannot deny that Thorin is flirting with him. Almost, he allows himself to believe the dwarf could be genuine in his care. That's before he recognizes the pattern for what it is; a wicked trick to rip the only friends Bilbo ever truly had from him. He refuses to be deceived like that again.
Thorin is mostly confused and hurt, when his attempts at courting seem to result in pure fury and hatred.

Ten years later, Bilbo can't even go to the Green Dragon without a dwarven tourist buying him a beer and sobbing over Bilbo's great tragic love affair with Thorin Oakenshield. Which would all be quite touching and heartbreaking, if not for one little thing...

sour(dough) secrets by synonymsforsaid

Summary
Bilbo Baggins, esteemed bachelor of the Shire, is less than pleased at many things during the start of his quest to slay a dragon with the joyous company of thirteen Dwarves and a particularly meddlesome Wizard. But, above all, he especially loathes the food --- in particular, the bread. Which is why he brought his very own sourdough starter to feed along the journey, leading him to secretly scurrying off into the night to grow it (for Dwarves, as they are, would most definitely make fun of him).
And as nosy as they were, two Dwarven princes can't help but follow Bilbo one night to see what on earth he was doing, bringing them to a grave, completely avoidable misunderstanding that has the Company of Thorin Oakenshield scrambling to rid their new burglar of his...'destructive habits'.

“Don’t,” Sherlock breathes and closes his eyes; John is positively terrified that the moment is gone, broken, shattered and is equal parts relieved and devastated. But Sherlock’s eyes flick back open, a sheen of tears bright and unobscured. Oh, this is something indeed. “Things… change.”

Summary
“Your shirt,” says Thorin, quite out of the blue, and Bilbo looks down his front to see if there is a spot of tea or jam or anything equally embarrassing spilled on it. He is relieved to find nothing of the sort and looks up at the dwarf with an eyebrow raised in question.
Thorin sits mute, his still-smoking pipe forgotten in his hand. He looks on for long moments still, seems almost lost to a thought before he shifts and lifts his gaze to meet Bilbo’s inquiring face.
“It is familiar to me. Did you not wear this on the eve we met?”
In which Bilbo and Thorin re-enact the evening they met.

A Winter's Tale by paranoid_fridge for MaxxR
Fandoms: The Hobbit - All Media Types, The Hobbit (Jackson Movies)
17 Dec 2017
Tags
Summary
Bilbo stays in Erebor after the battle. He's in love with Thorin, that much he can admit to himself. What Thorin feels, he doesn't know, but he's happy they get to spend time together. And maybe, just maybe, his affections are returned.
Or: Thorin slyly courts Bilbo after dwarven custom, Bilbo pines for Thorin, and at one point they end up ice sailing on the lake. It - like the hair brushing session - is less romantic than both parties initially expected, but enjoyable nonetheless.

Summary
Bilbo flees after the Battle of the Five Armies, convinced that Thorin wants his head. Whispers of a small creature leaving the camp eventually reaches the Company, but after so long, who knows if Bilbo made it all the way home?
“A burglar might steal a kiss. Or two.
It was quite proper behaviour, really. He would be careful not to do it where anyone could see, of course – no need to cause a scandal. Bilbo would be very, very discreet before he went back to the Shire to nurse his broken heart. He was going to be heartbroken when he went back anyway, so he may as well enjoy himself for now.
Thorin was sure to tell him if he stepped out of line, so it was foolproof, really.
Nothing could possibly go wrong.”
