    Summary

    He wasn’t dead.
    Or, if he was, the halls of his fathers were gone completely, replaced with this strange afterlife.
    But he doubted it.
    And if he wasn’t dead, and this was the quest once more… he had to make sure nothing changed.
    In battle, two simple seconds could be the difference between life and death, and they had narrowly escaped death far too many times.

    Or:
    After dying on Ravenhill, Thorin gets sent back in time to the start of the quest, and is determined to do things right.

    All the treasures of earth cannot bring back one lost moment.
    French Proverb (at least Google said it is French, if not - shame on you, Google)

    A collection of moments they decidedly did NOT lose, hence the 'nobody dies' tag.

    Summary

    Lindir knew it was unfair to judge whilst not having enough information as basis for his opinon, but he couldn’t help but think that he’d never understand Men, Dwarfs and Hobbits, and yes, it was all due to the actions of Bard of Lake-town, now the King of Dale, Thorin Oakenshield; King under the Mountain, and Bilbo Baggins, Consort under the Mountain.

    Not that it stopped him from falling in love with Bard.

    Summary

    When Bilbo puts himself between Thorin and Azog's blade, his mithril shirt protecting them both, it isn't long before some dwarves whisper that 'Oakenshield' might not be the best epithet for their king anymore. But for Bilbo, barred from Thorin's sight since the battle, this new epithet only adds to the sting. Spending his days caring for the recovering princes, Bilbo wonders how much more of this he can take, not suspecting his place at the center of a silent divide in the company.

    Summary

    "Bilbo never bothers denying that he is a slight, little bit, probably infatuated with Thorin. It’s not something that bothers him. Really. He’s pretty sure that everyone very likely has a little flutter in their chest for the dwarf. He’s something grand and unattainable.

    And it’s really much safer if it stays that way."

    Summary

    The Company shows their affection for Bilbo in accordance with dwarvish tradition. Bilbo... has no idea why everyone keeps giving him gifts.

    (Dwarves give gifts of craft to start friendships or romance. Everybody lives AU, canon-compliant through the first movie.)

    Summary

    It can get cold in the mountain in winter, but Fíli is lucky enough to receive continuous gifts of warm handknits from Ori. They're the perfect way to keep him warm while he snickers about how oblivious Thorin is to Bilbo's clear interest in him. Now if he'd only figure out why Kíli seems so amused at something, or what exactly is Nori's problem.

    Sometimes, it may take some implied threats to get through a dwarven skull.

    Summary

    After the Battle of Five Armies Thorin and Company have a new task: rebuilding their reclaimed home. Suddenly Bilbo finds himself up to his ears in responsibility and he surprises himself with how well he can navigate negotiations with elf dignitaries, farmers in Dale, and a dwarf king who has patience for neither.

    But as Spring approaches a caravan from the Blue mountains brings something everyone had nearly forgotten: the dwarf woman Thorin promised his hand to many years ago.

    Which is fine. It's all fine. It wasn't like Bilbo was falling in love with the king or anything.

    That would be tragic.

    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.

    When rumours circulate that the Prince Consort of Erebor is spending an excessive amount of time with the Miner Bofur, the suggestions of an affair take on a life of their own. Reaching the ears of the King, a humiliated and jealous Thorin confronts his husband in Council and a misunderstanding morphs into something catastrophic.

    Summary

    “–Come Durin’s Day, the Mountain will host great entertainments, games, and feasting in your name and in the names of the other thirteen of the Company. Your path through all of Arda shall be made smooth to ensure your welcome in our lands, Bilbo Baggins. I bring this summons as it was sent from the Throne of Thorin, King Under the Mountain.”

    Bilbo’s heart, racing as it had been from this thrilling invitation, seemed to trip over itself at the name. “Thorin?” he whispered, and he stepped forward without thinking.

    --

     

    Or: Bilbo learns that his story isn’t actually a tragedy, and that happy endings still take a bit of luck.

    Summary

    Thorin stood by Bilbo’s fire with a pipe in hand, his face locked upon the flames. He was so very different from the proud pompous thing that had stood in Bilbo’s foyer and scoffed at him not an hour before.

    When Thorin started to sing, Bilbo had to sit down. It was all he could do not to put his head in his hands. He knew at that moment, that he would be going on this journey, but he was not brave enough yet to voice it.

    Thorin sang of mountain peaks and golden halls and burning battlefields and most of all of home; every note came from his mouth like the words themselves were sacred. Hypnotizing, mesmerizing. Bilbo suspected that if Thorin had sung to those traitorous dwarven lords who’d turned his quest down in indifference, he might have won their allegiance.

    How anyone could deny Thorin, after hearing a voice like that, Bilbo could not fathom.

    (Or moments of song, and love, on the journey to Erebor and onwards.)
