Summary
Silas - sanctioned assassin who certainly did not set out this day to kill a dragon, finding himself acting out of character and possibly regretting the previous ten minutes.
He, and the person currently obscured within both a cloud of sand and a redball* shield of magic belongs to the story Star Crossed Blades by that-old-chestnut (Conkers) that I'm following and enjoying so much!*Even with a new toy to play with, the dragon is not happy. Pfff, dragons.

Fanart of the following scene: Bilbo and Thorin run into each other in the library – literally. Bilbo is there to pick up some guide books on parenting he desperately needs after finding out he's been appointed as guardian to his orphaned cousin and they've had a somewhat bumby beginning. As he’s turning around, he walks right into Thorin.

Through the Marshes by Usuallysublimepenguin for Lithdraug

Summary
Here's my finished version of art #99 of the Tolkien Reverse Summer Bang 2025 exchange. My prompt was picked up by the wonderful Lithdraug who wrote a thrilling longfic for it - of Bilbo setting out (rather involuntarily) to destroy the one ring. Cheering each other on with our projects over the summer was wonderful!
Please visit the story The courage of a Hobbit and give it love - it holds a special place in my heart and I couldn’t be prouder of this fic that grew well out of it's original planned lenght and like a Mearas ran off with us both.

The Smallest Warrior by morgana_fire

Summary
Bilbo Baggins steps in front of the wrong confrontation and pays for it in chains. Sold at the slave markets of Gundabad, he refuses to become what this place intends to make him. Through cunning, stubbornness, and a fury he didn’t know he possessed, he survives long enough to catch the attention of someone far more dangerous. Now he belongs to Azog, and the rules are simple: fight, or die.
He is not the only one trying to survive.
Thorin Oakenshield has been in the mountain for months — fighting, enduring, keeping his expectations low and his feelings lower still. He does not intend to let anyone in. He especially does not intend to let in the impossible small creature who keeps winning when he has no business winning, and who has a habit of appearing exactly when Thorin needs him most.
Outside, Fíli and Kíli are searching for their uncle. When the Thain of the Shire starts looking for his own missing grandson, an unlikely alliance is forged, and a plan begins to take shape — fragile, dangerous, and dependent on two people inside Gundabad staying alive long enough to be reached.

Summary
The Ringbearers journey west to bring their hearts peace after being touched by the darkness of the Enemy. Bilbo Baggins finds that his heart lies eastward, instead.
Or: Bilbo is given a chance to do it all again, and to chase his heart across the depths of time so that he may have the chance to save it.

One of These Days (Again and Again) by authoressjean

Summary
“Right,” Fili said. “We need to all stay alive, then. That shouldn’t be too hard.”
“You try it,” Bilbo muttered. “See how well you do.”
~
By a curse or a blessing from the Valar, Bilbo finds himself repeating the same horrific day of war outside of Erebor again and again. His repeats are always triggered when someone from the company falls. He suffers days and days on his own before the others begin to repeat the day with him.
One would think that with the whole company, an elf king, and a bowman all knowing what was to come, Bilbo would have an easier time getting them all through the day alive.
One would think that, wouldn't they.

Summary
"Hace mucho tiempo, a la sombra de grandes montañas, vivía un enano mercader llamado Thráin. Sus caravanas transportaban riquezas de todos los rincones de la Tierra Media, desde los más delicados brocado hasta las estatuas de piedra más realistas, tanto que la gente decían que se movían cuando nadie las miraba. El mercader no tenía hijos, pues los había perdido hacía largos años, pero tenía un corazón bondadoso y lleno de amor y había adoptado a un variopinto grupo de enanos huérfanos. Los dos mayores eran los hermanos Glóin y Óin, hábiles con el oro y con buen olfato para los negocios; los seguían los tres hermanos Dori, Nori y Ori, mucho más dados a las artes y para quienes el mercader proveía todos los materiales que desearan; por último, el menor y más extraño era un hobbit llamado Bilbo Bolsón, al cual había encontrado vagando solo por los bosques en uno de sus viajes a las Montañas Azules."

Summary
When Gimli wakes up in the past, he knows he must do nothing to endanger the future. If Frodo's quest danced upon the edge of a knife, anything he does to change the world around him could mean doom for all Middle-earth. As inevitable change comes, he begins to lose his memories of the future that was, the new future becoming uncertain. For he is bound in ways he never was before, even as a familiar quest begins to take form.
